Paul was excellent to work with. He promptly arrived and gave the estimate and completed the work. Paul was very knowledgeable and fair with his price. I would definitely purchase future flags and have all three flag poles on my property maintained by Paul and his company.

New mailbox installation and removal of old mailbox. | |My cedar mailbox of 20 years broke at a weak spot at the end of January. I had no idea what to do and began looking online at Menards, Lowes, etc..where the post and mailbox are sold separately to the best of my understanding. As a single woman I knew it was a job over my capabilities to assemble and install. I turned to Angie's list and found the Mailbox Shoppe and contacted Paul, the owner. | |Paul guided me to his website where he has put together packages of popular choices to simplify the decision making process, and we reviewed over the phone what I was seeking. I made my choice, Paul reviewed the installation process thoroughly, set a date, installed the new mailbox and he discarded my old one. Best part of all I didn't need to be home for the installation. | |Working with Paul was a pleasure and he followed up by phone with me after the installation to see if I had any questions or concerns. The project was seamless, I am a happy customer and I highly recommend The Mailbox Shoppe and Flag Co.

Mailbox order was placed early 05/2015. Had problems with the on-line ordering and ended up leaving a message for someone to call me. Several days later received a call and placed the order. Was told it would be about 6 weeks. No contact, until I called for status to make sure I was getting the install during the 6th week. Several days passed and received an email stating there was a delay. After my follow-up weeks later, i learned there was a strike at the dock. No news whether my mailbox was on the boat. Several more weeks passed. No communication. Out of the blue one day in late July, their truck shows up and my mailbox was installed. For the price - the work was well done, but the communication was poor.

I first gat my mailbox and post form Mail Box Shope & Flag Company after my first one was destroyed by a snow plow in the winter of 2012. I ordered a nice customized one that was oversized and in short I love it. The new mail box was run over buy a hit and run driver. I took the box and post to the folks at Mail Box Shope. to see if it could be repaired and reinstaled. They not only did it but, you'ld never know it had ever been damaged. I both cases the had a temporary mail box out promtly but the pemanant one was instaled ASAP. The first time as soon as the ground thawed enough for them to dig the post. The secong time with in Two weeks These folks are great First rate service & products, They are friendly and the customer service is outstanding and the instalation is solid. I would never use anyone else for this kind of thing and would never hesitate to recomend them.

The staff was very pleasant to deal with and the process was smooth. The only reason for a slight "less than excellent" was that it took longer than promised.

After brief confusion about showing up on a Friday, the worker appeared on Sat. morning, and was finished in less than an hour. He mixed the concrete, dug the hole and installed the post and box itself. High quality parts, he even added the address numbers on the box. Good job.

Absolutely perfect. They were very responsive and very nice. We are delighted with the quality of our mail box and the work performed. When I mentioned Angie's List, they provided me a courtesy discount, which they plan to extend to their future Angie's List customers. I would definitely use their company again.

This was a tricky installation, but not for Paul. He meticulously dug down, making the smallest hole possible, until he found the concrete. He was unable to get it out with that size hole, so he enlarged the hole a little bit and was successful. He then installed the mailbox (in concrete) and patched the driveway. We couldn't be happier with the job that he did, and as a result, have used him for handyman work with great results.
Description of Work
Paul replaced our mailbox for us. The cost was $430 for the actual box and $300 for labor. The old box was in concrete under our driveway.

I couldn't have been happier. I had to go out of town, and was a little nervous about not being there to answer the questions that inevitably come up, but this was no problem at all. When I walked in the door, I was just thrilled with what Paul had done. He is absolutely meticulous. For example, some people would have reattached the carpet by putting a few nails in it. Paul went out and bought a tackstrip; he does things the right way. The grout (2 colors) matched perfectly. And what he came up with to attach the window well covers was pretty ingenious. Very happy with his work and will definitely use him again; in fact, I've already started a new list.
Description of Work
Paul did miscellaneous repairs for us, including tacking down some loose carpeting, re-attaching and re-grouting tile in our kitchen and entryway, installing 3 window well covers, replacing a broken window, replacing the garage door seal, replacing the kitchen door seal and fixing a window crank that wouldn't open the window.
