"I spoke with Daniel on 1st day, we conversed back and forth. Right away he stated they could fix the door to close properly. Sent pics, he gave quote and stuck by that amount. Later we wanted door plate done as well. Extra amount was fair. The worker was most efficient and no nonsense, didn't stop until he was done. Very happy. Will choose again for other projects for sure."

"They have excellent attention to detail, good problem solvers, easy to work with and accommodating to the variables that happen in construction."

"If I could leave less than 1 star I would. I was a return customer that needed a few fence posts replaced as they rotted out. The quote was very high but they had done a good job in the past. We asked them to check other posts as well to be sure and let us know which ones to replace. They proceeded to just replace all posts in the line while we were gone for 30 mins. At least 2 of the 3 posts were just fine and did not need to be replaced. They then charged over $800 for the additional three posts they added and refused to wait the 10 minutes until we arrived to take the invoice or deal with it. In addition they did not bother to check the remaining fence as we asked and failed to clean up. They left dirt and concrete everywhere. We then called the following Monday as this occurred on a Friday, asked them to come out to finish and dispute the bill. They did not come out as planned and then told us to make an appointment. That all their fees are fixed and each post starts at $350 for the first one and $275 for each one after. Never did they tell us this in the quote or prior to installing the posts. We are left with a mess to clean and paid exorbitant fees for terrible work. Stay away!"

They responded quickly and put together a plan to work around a very tight delivery timeline and all of the last minute adjustments needed to make things go right. The quality of work, peace of mind that everything is done correctly and confidence in our team all came at a reasonable price. Refreshing to deal with a company that cares about their customers' satisfaction, not just how much they can charge. You don't always get what you pay for, especially with the companies that have to pay for all that marketing. You'll get so much more when you call the Thrifty Nickel Handyman family, I know they'll always be our first call. Thank you Joe, Jeff, Victor and Nancy for all you do! Larry, Melisa and Kyra"

"Mark was very helpful with figuring out what I needed and Dawn kept me updated on the order status and scheduling. Henry and Tevin were on time and did a great job on the installation and cleanup. Couldn't have been any better to deal with all around. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!"

"Very professional job. Their employee's were top notch. Called with arrival time and took the time to explain everything that they were going to do. When done they took the time to have us come out and inspect the work, and make sure we were happy. Will use this company from now on."

"Stan's did an excellent job communicating about this project and completing the work. They have a very professional office. They responded quickly to my request for a quote, work was scheduled and completed shortly thereafter. The work itself was great, I cannot even tell where they cut and replaced the posts that anchor the railing to the concrete."

"Chris was very helpful in helping me select the right composite materials, guidance on railings, deck layout, and any questions I had. His team tore down the old deck very quickly, removed all debris, and then built the new deck, steps and railings in a very professional and timely manner. I'm very pleased with the new deck!"
