Our standard tune up is only $79, (most shops charge around $110), and includes all adjustments, lubrications, safety checks and repairs needed to get most any bike going. If there are additional parts which need to be replaced such as tires, tubes, brakes, etc we will always do our best to let you know before the work starts. We are in business to get you riding, hassle free! Customer service is our main goal, our reviews speak to that.

I asked them to send an email confirming the appointment after having spoken with them on the phone. I did get the email confirmation but no one showed up on the scheduled date and I did not receive a call from them that day. I called them the next day and didn't get ahold of anyone.
Description of Work: I scheduled an appointment with them for June 1st to tune up 3 bicycles.

Response from Bike House Call
Hi [member name removed], I'm not sure what happened and I'm very upset to hear this! I didn't find any messages or emails after the date from you so I wasn't able to respond to the situation . There must have been a confusion with dispatch. I assure you we take this seriously and would love to try to take care of your bikes. We can't respond to an issue if we don't know about it. If you would like to reschedule please contact us directly. Again, I am sorry this happened, that's not fair to you, and I fully appreciate your frustration.

Ben was great - very knowledgeable. Spent whatever time was necessary and did not charge us for half the stuff he did. He knows bikes and was great to work with. It was very helpful for me as I have 3 bikes and a bad back so schlepping them back and forth to the bike shop would have been torture. I got quotes from the bike shops and they were all 30% higher than Ben quoted so we came out ahead on all counts. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GUY!
Description of Work: Completely overhauled 3 bikes - brought 20+ year old bikes to brand new condition

We called for tune up on 3 bikes. But our bikes are hard-ridden and needed some repair as well. The bike mechanic, Ben, is very knowledgeable and informative. He spent a good amount of time on all 3 bikes replacing brake pads ($20) and chains ($45) but ran out of time for indepth tuneup; so he did a more general making-everything-work-smoothly-again goingover (which was just fine for us). For this he charged just 1/2 price. It is evident that Ben enjoys this job. Highly recommend Bike House Call.

Wonderful. I emailed him and he called me within a day, scheduled the appt at my home. He spent about 2 hours total. He did a great job on my bike and it was very convenient not to have to drop my bike off anywhere and pick it up with my currently busy schedule. He was very throrough in checking out potential problems. I would definitely use him again for any bike related problems!
Description of Work: Fixed my hybrid bike that wasn't engaging any gears. Also, for free, he tuned up my son's bike and put a new pair of pedals on it (1 was broken) for $10

I was concerned how I was going to get all of our bikes repaired at the shop and dealing with the rude mechanics I have dealt with in the pass. This is why Bike House Call is a brilliant business. Ben contacted me right away to set up an appointment and since it was early in the season they came right away. Being a novice bike person I assumed they all needed major tune-ups, but it turned out we only needed one major tune-up and the others just needed tweaking. I also told him that he didn't need to do two of the kids bikes, but he felt for safety reasons they should be done even if no one was using them. A few days after Ben left, I knocked over my bike with the car and before he came out he talked it over what could be wrong over the phone and fixed it free of charge. This company is a class act!
Description of Work: They repaired/tuned up two adult bikes and four kids bikes.

Ben was amazing. He communicated well beforehand, and got a good idea of the bikes' condition and amount of work needed, then planned out a schedule to accomodate that work. He arrived on time, w/ all his tools, and worked amazingly h****** each of the bikes. Each bike was over an hour's labor, most of it on a very hot day in or near our garage. The bikes afterwards were nearly like new - very smooth, all the gears working again, smooth action, no strange clinkings or noises anymore. Really great service! We highly recommend them.

Excellent service. And very fair price. Ben was very thorough in explaining what he would do. He did this when he first contacted me and then again when he arrived at our place. He not only explained the services but also explained the costs up front. The newer of the two bikes hadn't been ridden much in the last two years and the other bike had been ridden much more over the last ten years. Ben explained that he had to do more with the newer bike because the tires/wheels were out of alignment. He explained that this usually happens at the factory. He also noted that the seat on this bike was very low and wondered how tall was the person who rode it. He went on to explain how proper seat height would make a world of difference in the amount of effort one would have to exert when pedaling. Further, and for no charge, he helped adjust an older bike carrier so that it would fit on the newer car. Ben was knowledgeable, thorough, efficient and very helpful. I would recommend Ben and Bike House Call without hesitation.
Description of Work: did complete tune-up for two bikes. Also, replaced a flat tire.

I contacted Bike House Call after hours via email requesting a quote and availability to come out. The next day the assigned mechanic Ben, called to schedule. He said he could come out in a couple days but I was not going to be home until the end of week. Ben arrived and explained the tune-up process and also wanted to know of any issues I might be having. He spent a little more than an hour in my garage doing the work. He discussed with me the reason I was having issues changing gears and how to avoid future problems now that he fixed it. Excellent work and highly recommended!
Description of Work: I got a Tune-up on my 4 or 5 year old Trek 4300.

I haven't tried to fix the jogging stroller tires myself yet, but will update my review if he needs to come out to fix the problem. I'm already very impressed by him. He quoted a price that was slightly better than someone else I called.
Description of Work: The owner answered his phone immediately. He listened to the problem I was having with my jogging stroller and gave me excellent advice on how to fix it myself. I haven't tried to fix it yet, but the fact that he was willing to see if I could fix it myself and save me money, means he has a customer for life! He told me that if I wasn't able to fix it, then to call him back and he would come out to fix it right away.

I called on Monday morning, and Sean was willing to come over Monday afternoon. As I wasn't in a rush we decided on Wednesday afternoon. Sean replaced the tires and performed a tune up. He charged the price quoted. He was also very informative on proper care for the frame and the tires. Sean is very knowledgable and enjoys his work. He also informed me that my bicycle and the manual is now a collectors' item and I should not scrap it. He was pleasant and easy to work with
Description of Work: Sean came to my home and repaired my bicycle. He replaced the tires and performed a tune up. Everything else he reported was fine.

i am writing this report several months later so details may not be sharp. he wasnt certain he could do the repair to the brake caliper mechanism which was mangled in a crash. when he got to my house and looked it over he manged to put a repair together. i suggested a tuneup also and we agreed on a price. overall it was a great experience. i was the only customer around and got all the attention! cant ask for a better scenario than that.
Description of Work: the brake caliper mechanism was mangled. it was repaired expertly. i also hadnt had a tune up in years and added that in. overall, including parts i spent 80$. definitely recommend this company. what a great concept, coming to my house!

Replaced both tires. Then clean an lubed the chain and adjusted the brakes for no charge. This is the second time I used Sean (Bike House Call), and both times Sean did extra tuning or adjustments without charging. When I check his prices against bike stores by my house his prices were the same and in one case a little less, another surprise.
Description of Work: Replaced two bicycle tires. Bike House Call comes to your home, instead of bring you bike to the shop.
