I called and left a message for David to return my calls and he did, we were just playing phone tag, he finally got a hold of me and I explain that do the Sana Anta's winds my fence was trown down, David informed me that he was completely book for the month of  of May, Just my luck, what really impress me about David was that although he was book for the Month of May he had me go and take a few pictures of my fence and send it to him, David look at the pictures I sent him and asked my a few question in which I had to run back and forth to my broken fence, but it I was fine with that because of David willingeness to help me,  after gathering all the information for David he gave me a qoute, I was please with that qoute. If I can hold out til June I will give David this job to do.  But I also have another fence that is on list to do and David will be getting this one for sure.
In closing I just wanted to say that I must of called about 15 companies and the only one to call me back was David's company 
( I'll Handle it ).  As stated David informed me that is was completely book for the month ,  Now I work with a lot of contractors before and when they say they are booked up theyclosed the door in your face.  Not in this case David professionalism was outstanding, yes he booked but he was willing to still help me out, now that is something that don't happen much and as a customer I really appreciated that and thank you David.

"It was our pleasure to help whenever we can. I hope that Ervin gets his fence fixed sooner than later. I'll Handle It is a service business. The service doesn't always mean we are going to do the job at hand, It is very important to us that we acknowledge a homeowner's request and help however we can. We look forward to helping in the future."

Dave and his assistant did an excellent job.  Performed all the jobs I requested professionally and in the time they estimated.  They did a thorough clean-up so when the jobs were completed.

I would definitely hire Dave Pfizenmeier again and would be happy to recommend him to my friends or anyone else on Angie's List.

Why didn't I call Dave in the first place?  A handyman was recommended by my realtor, and when he messed up the project, I called Dave.  I had worked with Dave's company a couple of years ago, and worked with a very nice guy named Keith.  I had not met Dave before.

For a rental home that I own, I asked the handyman recommended by the realtor to remove sliding closet doors that were plain (no paneling) and replace them with doors that had panels similar to the doors that open into the study.  I asked that they be painted Swiss Coffee.  We discussed the project:  The doors were an odd size, so he would have to order the doors from Lowe's.  The ONE day I could not make it to the rental (I had been there 15 days in a row, all day... was the day the handyman hung the doors.  I was shocked to find that he had not ordered the proper sized door.  Instead, he bought doors in stock and cut 2 inches off the bottom.  However, he did not put a piece of wood at the bottom of the doors and did not sand the bottom, so the bottom looked "rough."  Since the doors are hollow, you could place your fingers into the "inside" nothingness of the door at the bottom.  The paint job was mediocre and only on the front side.

I called Dave.  What a God send!  He explained that it's not unusual to have to cut doors, but he always saves the bottom part that was cut off and then glues it to the cut bottom, sanding it and painting it.  I told him I didn't have the bottom part that was cut from the doors.  He said no problem.  He came out and set up sawhorses in the garage and fixes both doors but making an insert for the bottoms and clamping them.  I told him I wanted to paint the doors because I didn't like the paint job that was done.  He was kind enough to leave the sawhorses for me, even though he thought he might need them for his next job.  I painted the fronts and backs of the doors, and he hung them the next day.  He was so nice, he even said I did a good job painting!

A day later the lock on the handle of the  back door slider broke.  I called Dave.  He took the handle off and secured the back door with a piece of wood so no one could enter.  He then spent over an hour on the internet finding the correct handle after he went to Home Depot and they didn't have it.  He said it was a special handle (reverse clamp?).  I tried to find the handle on the internet and bothered him with so many emails as to whether I had found the right handle.  I ordered the one he recommended and had it shipped to his home and he installed it the day after he received it.

Dave is the "A Team."  Once you find the "A Team," you should stick with them and forget calling anyone else!

He is very responsive my phone, text or email.  He knows what he's doing and is the consummate professional.  I'm sure my little jobs were way beneath his expertise, but he performed them without complaint and did a fabulous job.  It's hard to find someone like Dave!  I would recommend him to others and will definitely call him again.

We had two cupboard doors under the kitchen sink that we had not been able to keep adjusted.  In fact, we thought they were broken.  Another door to the pantry had one hinge that was completely ripped out of the door.  I couldn't find a replacement door, nor could I repair the damage.  Most of the other cabinets were not adjusted or tightened properly.  It had been this way for years.  I asked Dave to just fix the doors under the sink, and if possibly repair the pantry door.  Dave gave me an estimate for this work which I thought seemed fair, $175.  It was much less than another handyman had quoted.  Not only did Dave fix the doors under the sink, he repaired the pantry door.  It looks like a piece of art the way he fixed it.  Then, without asking, he adjusted all of the cabinets so they were tight and lined up properly.  We are so happy with Dave's work and will definitely ask him to do some additional projects.  He is a gentleman and was completely professional.  Thanks Dave!

Dave was VERY nice but said my attic made it a very difficult job and couldn't be done in the time I had available. He said there were too many electrical cables and water pipes laying across the floor of the attic and the beams would cause the cat walk to be slanted in some areas. Dave took several good photos for me so I could understand what he was talking about. It didn't seem worth the time and cost anymore to do this work. I would recommend Dave although he didn't do any actual work for me and RB is also quite a distance from his business location.

Dave was very responsive and very easy to work with. He provided written estimates for the two projects very quickly and they were very reasonable. We agreed to a schedule for the work and Dave was right on time. There were no surprises during bthe job and it was completed on time and with high quality. 
I would recommend Dave for any home repair project - he is great.

He was great to communicate with by email, arrived to our appointment on time, and seemed like a true professional who knows what he's doing. Although we decided to go with someone else in this instance, we won't hesitate to call him again for general handyman tasks. Thanks, Dave!

I'll Handle It was exceptional. I found David to be a person of intergrity, care, and phenomenal craftsmandship and artistry. His repair of my plaster ceiling (where a water pipe had leaked) to be flawless. The ~ 1-foot section of eves along the roof was equally flawless. Prompt, considerate, personable, and technically knowledgable and skilled--I highly recommend Dave and I'll Handle it. In addition, pricing was affordable and fair.

All services were performed professionally, and results were outstanding. Prices are very reasonable (even has Angie's list discount) and are provided upfront in a professional bid, the contractor is punctual and very responsive (phone, text, and email), and takes good care of your home during the job. I would highly recommend Dave if you are looking for handyman services, small to large.

1} I needed next day service and I'll Handle It did just that. Fit in my need for new disposal asap.
2} Gave me a time frame and fit my schedule. The next morning he called and said he could get there 15 min early which worked out even better for me.
3}Already had the part/disposal needed...actually a couple to choose from. One that was a directly replacement and another that was an upgrade if I wanted it.  No pressure just had options which was terrific!!
4} Completed job in an hour. Great for a job that is paid hourly!!! 
5} Gave me some great advice on maintenance.
6) Offered me his card and suggestions for future jobs which we will definitely call him on!!
Thank you I'll Handle It and Angie's List for being such a great and consistent source for our various needs.

We could not be more pleased with all the work Dave has done for us. This review is for work Dave has done last June as well as the latest work in January 2014. We find him to be completely professional, knowledgeable and he responds quickly in a timely manner.  Dave was able to work around several challenges with installing the attic ladder and the finished result not only functions well but looks great (the attic opening is in an upstairs hallway).  We will absolutely call Dave at I'll Handle It for our all-too-frequent repair needs and also refer Dave to our friends and family.
