Tim was amazing. Super nice, responsive, and thorough. The job was perfectly done and Tim even brought a little vacuum cleaner to make sure that every speck of sawdust or dirt was gone before he left. He was just a pleasure to work with and I can imagine working with him again and again.
Description of Work: Removed shelves, painted closets and installed new hanging rods. Assembled a cabinet.

Tim and his assistant were professional and efficient. They arrived on time and worked consistently throughout the day. Tim is very personable and I enjoyed working with him. The plumbing in my old vanity was difficult to access and the installation was complicated. Tim stuck with it and successfully installed my new three piece faucet. Both men were careful working in my newly painted and carpeted home. I would definitely use him again. I can't say enough positive things about him.
Description of Work: I gave Tim a punch list in advance of his visit of 15 items that included replacing switches and outlets, installing new bathroom faucet and fixtures, installing hand rails, replacing light fixtures, installing new door knobs with locks, caulking bathroom shower and vanities, etc.

Tim responded to my e-mail the same day and asked for more information on my vague request for help with windows. When he knew what needed to be done, he was able to work me into his schedule the next day due, thankfully, to the fact that he had an outside job that he had to postpone because of rain. He arrived on time. He gave me an estimate of the time and cost and began work immediately. He finished the job sooner than expected. I could not be happier with the result. Tim is a professional. He brought the tools and the help he needed to do the job. It was obvious right away that he knew exactly what he was doing. When he completed the work, I told him of some other work I wanted done eventually and asked if he could do it. He told me he would send me an estimate on certain parts of the work and suggested that I contact a contractor for some other, more complex, work. In 30+ years in my home I have had 5-6 handymen do various things for me. Tim is #1 in my book. I will absolutely call him the next tme I need a handyman.
Description of Work: I have five older windows in my home that needed some repair and painting. Some of them were stuck shut. Some were loose and rattled. All needed to be painted on the inside and particularly where the top and bottom sashes overlap. Tim removed the sashes, sanded, cleaned, caulked and painted them, then put them back so that they work perfectly and look great.

Tim and his assistant arrived on time. He was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. I showed him the work that needed to be done, and he and his assistant got to work right away. At one point, they needed to go out to purchase supplies. While at Lowes, Tim texted me pictures of possible replacement faucets, and I chose the one I wanted. They even finished the work before the time we expected. I couldn't be more pleased with the service. Tim will now be out go-to man for handyman projects in our home. We highly recommend him. Superior service at reasonable prices. Couldn't ask for more.
Description of Work: Tim and his assistant rehung a door with a broken hinge, he bought and replaced hard-to-find shower door seal, and he bought and replaced a kitchen faucet.

I've hired Tim on several occasions. He is much in demand so I don't always get him scheduled as quickly as I'd like. But he works in a professional and efficient way. I got what I needed done. He is also a nice person.

Tim's performance was excellent from beginning to end. 1. Communicating and scheduling was easy--Tim replies to e-mail quickly and described his cost structure (by the hour). 2. Showed up on time and ready to go--arrived promptly and began assessing the windows 3. Clear and accurate estimates--the estimates of cost and time were accurate 4. Pleasant and respectful work style--Tim is straightforward, pleasant and mindful of the customer (cleaned up as he went along; minimized noise as I was working at home). 5. Efficient : Tim was able to complete the windows more quickly than expected--I asked him to take a look at the toilet. This is my first "home fix-up" project and I was worried about finding a vendor. My big concerns were that someone would try to take advantage of my lack of knowledge and over-bill me or suggest un-needed services. Luckily, Tim showed me what he was doing as he went along (e.g., showed me the sash cord mechanism; showed me the broken toilet part) and worked quickly/efficiently, so the cost was absolutely fair and reasonable. I plan on using Tim in the future.
Description of Work: Tim and his assistant replaced sash cords in 5-6 windows in my condo and also got 1 window un-stuck. Prior to this, I couldn't open windows and/or had to prop them open. Tim also replaced a part in the toilet.

Tim works with a helper so they get a lot done quickly. He also shopped for all the materials needed for the job.

Tim replied to my email to set up an appointment promptly. He showed up on time at our appointed time. I showed him the issue (a door to the roof which is difficult to close) and let him play with it. After a short time, he came back with a proposed solution as well as a backup solution. After a run to the hardware store to get a supply, he resolved the issue. All within less than an hour. Tim was punctual, professional and communicative. I would definitely use his services again. In fact, before he left, I showed him an area in the bathroom that needed some touch-up paint and told him that I would be in touch for him to come and do it. After some experiences with some other handymen, he was a dream. Some may find him a bit pricey, but in this case you get what you pay for.

Tim was great and super nice! Arrived on time with his handy assistant to replace 3 panels on my deck's fence that blew out during a storm in December. I showed him the area of work and it was no problem and that he would be able to screw the panels back. Did this all under an hour! I also asked him about some other repair work for future that I needed done (fixing a back door so it doesn't stick, recaulking my sink, painting) and said he can do them! I will definitely schedule him again for these projects!

Tim was extremely qucik to respond, schedule a time to come in, and he finished the various jobs on time and efficiently. Tim fixed a number of issues in my house including plumbing, windows and doors. He addressed all the issues, walked me through the problems and potential fixes, and then worked through them on the spot and fixed them completely. He was very professional, courteous, friendly and I will be using him again for additional issues in my house. I highly recommend Tim.

Arrived on time - worked diligently - kept me informed of progress and problems - discussed all issues and finished on time and left a spotlessly clean work space.
Description of Work: Multiple jobs on a flat - some easy - some requiring a little more time and effort - especially as old houses are never level and need an expert who knows how to work with settlement issues in Victorians - I found this guy and he knows the quirks of Victorians. This one is a great find!!! Reasonable rates and quality work. I am very happy with the entire experience and highly recommend him.

They did a fantastic job and were super clean, leaving no trace of their visit except for beautiful installations. The "B" for price is only because he is a bit pricier than other handymen I've use in the past. However, I feel I can rest assured that they will do a good job and for me that is worth the cost.
Description of Work: Tim and his team installed floating cabinets in our dining room and bathroom. They also fixed caulking around the apartment.

Tim was a pleasure to work with! When I contacted him and we spoke about my needs, he set up an appointment to do the work and gave me an estimate of the time it would take to complete the job. Two days before the work was to be done he called to reschedule for the day following the original appointment because the job he was on at the time was going to take longer than planned. That was fine with me. Then on the day of the appointment (a Friday) he arrived right on time but had an injury he needed to attend to, and again that was fine with me. We rescheduled the appointment for Monday (3 days later) and Tim and his helper arrived right on time. They performed all of the work I asked them to do carefully and to my satisfaction. Afterward they cleaned up and left the place as they had found it with the addition of two deadbolt locks, some hooks, a shelf, and some door hardware. Thank you Tim for a job well done!
Description of Work: Tim and his helper installed two deadbolt locks, a wall shelf with brackets, some hooks, and door hardware to hold wooden blinds in place on french doors.

I wish he was able to do the job - but he is book until October which means he must be doing an excellent job out there!!!
Description of Work: I sent 6 different requests through Angie's list and one of them was Tim. Tim was the only one that responded indicating that he could not do the job until mid-October. In my book someone that responds timely shows a personal professional tact -Even though I need the job to be done before October, he gets a rating of triple AAA. The fact that he responded immediately it means that he will do have done an excellent job - No question in my mind.

Thank you for the good review! I'm not sure why I was rated a B in professionalism. I will contact this valued client to see what made them rate me lower in this area so I can be sure to continue to improve my service.

It was easy from start-to-finish. Tim was on time for his estimate appointment, prompt in appraising the situation, gave an honest estimate, scheduled our appointment, arrived promptly for appointment and charged a very reasonable fee. His work was thorough and completed as promised. i am very happy with his service and would definitely hire again and would highly recommend.
Description of Work: I live in an older Edwardian building and had problems opening windows because they were painted shut, had broken sash cords, or had uneven window frames that wouldn't operate smoothly. Tim worked on 4 separate windows and got them into working order. They now work smoothly and are operating problem-free.

He did a great job. His labor was $500 and the parts were $350. He was on time and appeared honest. He communicated with what was going on and even checked back to make sure everything was okay. He let me see everything as we went through the process. The price was fine but the concern was that he wasn't able to give me the receipt. I went with his work and trusted him but I sure would like to see the receipt.

Tim came to the house to take a look and estimate the job. When we gave the go-ahead, he made an appointment and arrived as scheduled. He had already gone to purchase the door and lockset and had them with him when he arrived. He had two employees whom he started on the job while Tim went to purchase caulk for the exterior window. The job was done efficiently and with excellent quality. Tim is not the cheapest ($95/hr), but certainly worth what he charges. We had him come back a second time to paint an exterior wall and he did the job in one hour.

First off, it was incredibly easy to schedule Tim. He was very thorough and responsive to all my messages, and we were able to find a time that worked quickly. As someone with a very packed business schedule, this was very refreshing compared to some other handymen we've tried to hire in the past. Tim arrived promptly at 9am and we surveyed the work. The curtain rod installation was probably the most challenging because we had specific rods that we wanted to use, but the standard installation wasn't going to work. Tim came up with several different strategies, taking into account my preferences. We settled on a strategy, and he got to work with his helper. I was able to relax in the other room while they just took care of it, only calling me in if they needed input. They even hung up the curtains afterwards :) The bookshelf was a breeze, and I really liked how Tim worked with me to figure out placement. Lastly, we worked on installing the projector in the ceiling of our finished attic. The studs aren't normal there, but Tim quickly figured out the strategy and got to work. Overall, I'm incredibly satisfied with the work. Tim was super friendly and fast, and even got done an hour earlier than I expected. We'll definitely calling him again, and will refer him to any friends with handyman needs. Tim was great!
Description of Work: Tim helped us out with installing some curtain rods, a hanging bookshelf, and hanging a projector from the ceiling. Seeing as how our apartment is very old and funky, has studs in weird places, and most items are off-size, we needed someone with a little creativity to help us solve these issues.
