Handyman Service
I hired Ben for a small job- hanging closet bifold doors. He was 1.5 hours late. He did the job quickly but installed handles wrong because he eyeballed it instead of actually measuring. He asked for cash. I gave him a large bill and he agreed to cash app change. The change never came and now he avoids all text messages and calls.
The ironic part is I was going to give him multiple other jobs needing to be done around the house worth way more to him than what he owes me. The only positive is that I learned quickly he is not trustworthy or detail oriented. I would not recommend.

Benjamin Phelps was hired and I sent him $975 and he never did the work. I am a senior citizen that trusted him to complete the job but instead he never showed up and lied about returning the money. After googling his name I was shocked to find his arrest record and this is someone you need to stay away from. My only recourse is to go to probation and parole and civil court. Do not hire this con artist.

They came late, were smoking , took the door off, promised to replace it, never came back, never responded to my calls. These guys have no professional ethic, don't care about customer satisfaction, never show up when they say they will and perform substandard work. Ben had done previous work for me last spring and exhibited the same irresponsible behavior and explained he was having personal problems. He reached out to me again and I decided to give him another chance. He then proceeded to be even worse. He took the door and never replaced it or brought it back. I contacted him numerous times and he ignored me. This guy should not be in business and is a disgrace to those who work hard and provide professional repair services.

Asked for 4 simple repairs and got messy results. Very poor communication skills, was called delusional because I didnâ t like that the new bath tub stopper wasnt draining the water around the perimeter of it. I also paid for new laundry roof tiles to be replaced and was told that the new one that was replaced had a hole because that was the only way to place it but my previous tile that was there did not have any holes. Ben did offer to check a sink link that started after his repair and to repair another ceiling tile that had a leak.. Unfortunately, after these repairs and the terrible communication I will not be using this company in the future.

Ben was excellent. We need a roof repair. He and his assistant were there the next day. Found leak on roof, repaired in timely manner, cleaned up…Very Thorough. Took before and after pics and texted throughout repair process. Checked out other potential roof repairs and gave us quote which was 1/2 cost of previous quote. Very polite, people person, honest and great work ethic. With bad rain and wind storms of this week, repairs worked with no further issues. Highly recommend. Will be hiring for other roof work and other projects in immediate future. Highly recommend!!!!

Ben and team installed drywall, then plastered and painted the entire second floor ceiling, including a vaulted ceiling, after we had mold remediation that required total ceiling removal. He worked quickly and gave us regular updates about progress. And in addition to the drywall install upstairs, he helped patch holes in ceilings on the first floor of the house where we had minor mold remediation. He also reinstalled a huge mirror that had been taken off one of the walls of our bathroom, reaffixing it and all of the fixtures with it. Ben gave us a great price, and treated the house like his own. Highly recommend!

Ben and his team did an incredible job with extensive exterior work on our house. They were quick to respond, on time, worked long hours to get the job done as efficiently as possible, and charged us an incredibly reasonable price. About the job: we just had our roof replaced and accordion shutters removed. There were large portions of our porch and under the eaves along the house where unfinished wood was exposed, and had been hastily installed. The shutter removal left large patches of the house unpainted, and there was damage that needed repair. Ben made a thoughtful assessment of our homeâ s needs to get it looking as good as possible. Our house is a corner lot, and Ben was incredibly considerate about his recommendation: he wanted to help us make sure the house looks great from all angles. He and his team powerwashed our house, painted it, refined woodwork and stucco that hadnâ t been installed properly, caulked areas that had been overlooked when we had new windows installed. In short, Ben and his team cared deeply about fixing problems we didnâ t even know about. He even offered advice about low-cost extras we could do now to make a big impact, including updating 5 sconces and replacing our floodlights system that was outdated - both at an incredible price. The team went ahead and power washed our driveway and walkways at no additional cost. We felt taken care of and trust Benâ s judgement implicitly: when he says itâ s important to fix something, we do. I canâ t recommend Ben and his team highly enough!

We hired Ben and Sol to paint the exterior of our house. I must say it was not a smooth process. When questioning many things, unprofessional responses by Ben (as if he was doing me a favor) were given. I think the first mistake I made was hiring a handyman instead of a professional painting company to paint my house. His wife and team are kind and hardworking. Perhaps the one good thing the company has going. His team however would arrive late and stay working through the night, as a result you guessed it, many details were missed. Example: walls not painted properly, scratches from ladders. As per Ben it did not matter even if his team would show up at 4 pm, my house would get painted. We should just carry along with our day and let them work. The second mistake was not having the most minimal details of what had to be done in writing, as some things were said but not executed. His contract seemed rushed and asking for clarifications were a mission. Third mistake was paying the second amount before doing a proper walk through. He stated he needed the money a.s.a.p. as he was in negative numbers. As a result, we paid him but you guessed it, no proper walk through. He stated doing a walk through by himself in the middle of the night. Many details still needed to be corrected yet his last response was ?maybe he can pass by in two weeks or better yet maybe my husband can just fix it. If after reading this you decide to contract this company good luck, as we honestly would never hire them again!
Response from Ben & Sol All Around Home Improvement
"We painted a two-story house and replaced eight corners of rotted wood per agreement. We agreed on $6000 to pressure clean and paint the entire house, fill holes, and replace rotted wood on the corners of the roof only and replace rotted wood for the railing, all for $6000, not to mention that you had a lot of tongue and groove. When we started, we agreed that it would be done by a certain date, and we reached the date that was asked of you. We agreed to two coats of Behr paint and primer; we did 3 to 4 coats, which is extra that we did not charge for. I also asked for you to trim back bushes, trees, and limbs for us to start, and nothing."

Miss communication about arriving for job. Their gps sent them to the wrong place. Had to direct them over the phone. Job was very quick and rather easy. Thought they might adjust the fee based on sight unseen. They did know their job.

I have owned many properties and Ben & Sal All Around Handyman is the best company I have ever dealt with. This is the second time I have used this company. I recommend them 100% This was a difficult job--removing popcorn ceiling in whole apartment and then replastering and smoothing/sanding and painting entire ceiling, including closets. Ben also fixed a light fixture and replaced a threshold. I am so grateful to Ben and his wife Soledad for all their help in getting this done on a tight deadline.

The fence and gate were replaced and the facia board was a good-fair price but for an extra job of a small roof repair I was charged ($600.00)for 45 minutes of work, When I questioned Ben about the high price Ben told me that roofers are changing ($500) to get up on a roof to make an estimate on replacing a roof and he once did a roof repair that took20 minutes and charged ($2000.00)for the job and thought it alright ripped some one-off for him to charge me $600.00) ($2000.00)for a for so-called roof repair. The extra roof repair Was not a fair price but a very HIGH guesstimate price the he knows is way to HIGH!
Response from Ben & Sol All Around Home Improvement
"Thanks but if you feel that the amount Ben charged for a roof repair that took 45 minutes was unfair and or too high of price you could have hired another company. The risks and danger it takes not many employees are willing to take. It is a specialty! We are blessed to have Ben in our team he has the knowledge and experience to be able to cover many jobs Working efficiently and always giving the best quotes as our reviews show we have wonderful customers who appreciate the work and they know that we give the best prices it is why we are always booked. We are proud to be in the lead among many AMERICAN small businesses. Thank you."

I needed help moving a cabinet over and installing a dishwasher in its place. Ben came checked it out. Said he could do it, and within three days of having come by, the job was done. The dishwasher looks excellent, and I can't complain. Ben was very professional with the installation and the clean-up. I would def hire him again.

Ben is a very personable fellow. Initially, he arrived when he said he would, prepared to work. He did well putting up a large beam on my patio roof, but when it came to assorted fascia corrections left by a poor contractor, he initially said he would take care of it, then later declined. As far as re decking the gazebo, they worked into the wee hours in the morning, then left. Workmansip left much to be desired. Poor cuts, large gaps at the ends of boards, obviously cut too short, but placed anyway. Two of the corners were poorly mitered, and the other two not mitered at all, but instead fitted with sloppily cut square pieces. The original decking was 2x6 foot boards. He used 1x6 foot instead, leaving the floor feeling saggy in multiple places. The stairs were less than half the width of the originals, crooked and rickety. I later found that he had reused two of the old and badly damaged stair runners, and sistered them up with blocks and hob nailed them to the side of the structure. My wife saw how all this looked and went absolutely ballistic. He charged us $4500 dollars for about $500 dollars worth of materials, and a very long day of labor with 3 guys total. Furthermore, he did not return, and left me a pile of demolition debris for me to clean up, and now I have to re do the entire stairs and deck on my gazebo. Unfortunately, no I would not recommend using this company for carpentry work. Find someone else whom might have the correct tools for the job.
