Roger and Wayne are the very best. Professional and mindful of COVID -19 protocols best describes these two. They replaced my kitchen faucet and washer drip pan. The arrived on time with appropriate COVID protection. I needed a drip pan for the washer and they purchased for me and installed. They replaced the kitchen faucet and made sure that it worked. If you need home repairs or other services, Perkins and Sons is a good place to go. Professional service fees are more than reasonable. Highly recommended.

It was really simple work and Roger was a great handyman. I'm a little dissappointed for being charged for 2 hour when it actually took 55 minutes. Maybe it's a 2 hour minimum. I was charged $165, $70 an hour ($140) but he still charged $165.

Thank you for your kind words about Roger. I'm sorry you misunderstood our phone conversation. As I explained, we have a basic service charge of $165. That allows up to 2 hours of labor. Additional labor is $70/ hour. Thank you for your review.02/23/2019

This was the second time I use this company for work. Roger did an excellent job hanging my planes. He has a very pleasing and caring personality, and is committed to excellence. All was done to my complete satisfaction. I highly recommend this company for general house hold work. A good handyman, that is fair with pricing, is very hard to find. Now that I found one, I will use for all the little jobs around the house that I am unable to. Thanks Roger for a very pleasant experience.

Thank you for sharing your love of planes with me. I have found a new hobby. Roger02/08/2019

I have many planes that were all over the place and wanted to hang them from the ceiling. I contacted Perkins via Angles list and got a prompt response from Kathy Perkins. She set up an appointment that met my needs. Her communication was professional and courteous. Roger came out, on time, and did a fantastic job. Not only did he hand the shelves, he actually test fitted each to make sure the planes fit, and then hung them for me. This is what i call service, In fact, I will hire them again to do more work. i am extremely please with their service and highly recommend this company.

Great- Wayne fixed our problem area and cleaned up some mold. He was professional and fast. Only problem we had was he took measurements to have another job done and he told me Kathy would call with a quote but she never did.

they did a great job. completed their portion of the work timely so that the block wall installer could begin and finish on time. they were resourceful in putting up a temporary fence so my dogs would stay in the yard while the debris removal and new wall was being built. work provided came in under quoted budget.

I got tired of waiting and called another plumbing service who responded immediately and was able to dispatch a plumber who arrived just 3 hours after contact. I can understand if you are booked solid, but to say someone will call to discuss making an appointment and then never respond is completely unprofessional. I wasted over 5 hours waiting on a call that never came. The person answering the phone should have access to an appointment planner so that they can book - not have to wait for his mama to come in to do it.
Description of Work
Called around 10 am. I have used this service before and the man answering the phone recognized that. He said they were pretty booked for the next 2 weeks but that someone would call by 1230 or so to discuss appointment. No one ever called. At about 3pm I called back and the same young man asked, Kathy didn't call you? Give me a couple minutes to go talk to her. No one ever called back. Period. I needed my toilet fixed and for the water to stop running in it and being wasted. They advised it would take an hour or less and that since there is a 2 hr minimum to have something else to do. I have a bad electrical outlet that they could have fixed as well.

Along the way, the owners wife was just telling me nonsense about larger porcelain tiles being illegal to put in bathrooms. That they had to do such and such to make them legal. There were other things she said that made no sense. I have sold over 700 homes, so I know non-sense and people who will come in and create/find problem after problem that really isn't a problem. The first rule of bidding jobs is you never pay by the hour because people can go incredibly slow if they want to make more money. They charged $68 for each person (handyman), not an electrician, not HVAC, etc. $68 for per handyman is insane, but I figured I'd try to work something out. Who knows maybe they work 3 times faster than your average handyman? So, I asked for a fixed bid on the projects, which they said they would do. In the end they wouldn't give a fixed bid because there were "to many variables and they don't know what they will find". That is just silly. There are no variables one can't see to bid drywall. They even worried about the concrete slab being flat enough (We had self leveled it so that seemed a little out there.) They worried that the concrete board might not be screwed down correctly, even though I told them I have sold over 700 homes and that I oversaw the installation. Also, anyone who understands tiling a bathroom can see the concrete board was screwed down correctly. My experience tells me that they wouldn't give a fixed bid because it would be shockingly high and they knew I knew what things cost. For an average homeowner you need to stay clear. Three people at $68/hr x 3 people can add up vary fast and take a very long time, because what handyman doesn't want to make $68 an hour for as long as they can get away with it. Also, those variables they are worried about will definitely come up and cost you more. Also, with this kind of payment when they hit something that is too complicated they can just walk away because you have already paid then daily.

I had several projects that the owners wife and son came to bid on. Drywall, Tile work, and a whole lot more.

I'm sorry you felt that way. To be clear, you asked us to give you a fixed price to finish work someone else had started but not completed. Much of that work had been done incorrectly. Therefore, we could only assume that that there may be mistakes in other places. It is very difficult to finish what someone else has started, and even more difficult to figure out how long it will take. We often end up having to redo the work. I didn't want to give you a high bid that would cover those contingencies. I felt it was not fair to you. That is why I opted not to bid on your project. I was surprised that you got angry at me for choosing not to do the work. I wasn't trying to rip you off or pad a bill. I was trying to politely decline. You asked why and I tried to explain. Your comments are untrue and unfair. I am disappointed that simply decline in the job led to such negative comments.07/27/2017

Came and looked at job to give bid, never heard from them again. No bid, no phone call just no communication. Very unprofessional.

Debbie, I just saw your post. I'm sorry I didn't see it earlier. About 4 days after I saw you an ail was sent with our bid. When I didn't hear back, I assumed you had gone with someone else. I should not have assumed and I'm very sorry. If you are still interested, I would be happy to resend the information. Please accept my apologies for not calling to verify that you had received the quote. Kathy Perkins (951) 395-196407/17/2017

I am very pleased with the work Wayne did. I couldn't afford to have all the work needed done at once so we are scheduling as I have money to pay for. When we scheduled the appointment we didn't know that it was going to be over 105 degrees that day. Wayne still showed up on time and did what he had promised to do, trim an overgrown tree that was laying on the roof. I am very happy with both Wayne and Kathy's professionalism and will recommend them to others!
