It went quite well.
Description of Work: Installed home security system signs on exterior walls of my residence. Installation was executed exactly per my requirements. Handyman Connection charges are somewhat pricey. I have used them for other projects, and have found them and their work to be very professional. An aspect of their policy that can be inconvenient is that they, for example, require you to get out and purchase the door that you want installed.

It turned out just fine. They did a great job on it. They were easy to talk to. They came out early and looked at the work and they estimated what it was. I think it was a customer friendly service.

I don't think I would use them again. I have noticed that one of the tiles is loose. He was supposed to hook up the toilet and he said he didn't do that. He said the shutoff valve was leaking. He didn't seem to be able to do things. We had used them before and the guy was very good. I requested him again but they said he had retired. He was too young to retire so I imagine he left the company. The problem depends on who they have working for them. I told them I wasn't going to pay their price and he kept cutting it down and cutting it down. They come out right away when I called them. It was within 24 hours. The guy was nice enough but it appeared that he was having other issues. It is hard to evaluate them because it depends on who comes out.

It was very good. My husband took care of it; he said the bill was reasonable. I don’t think there were any hidden charges. They have to come out again but that’s not because…you know, because it was like a 2 fold thing. We wanted them to do an additional estimate on another job and they have to kind of…something have to dry before they could finish the job. When they came out the second time, it’s not like we were charge again. We were quite happy with the work. The guys were very personable and very pleasant. They seem very honest, in that, the second job that they gave us an estimate for, they frankly said that, I mean, I don’t want to get them into trouble, we could probably just do it ourselves. It would be silly for them to explain the problem rather than have some expensive work done that didn’t need to be done. We really appreciated it because they were honest enough to say “oh what you think it is, it’s not and you can handle this yourself.” We thought it was a major plumbing issue and all we really need to do is some painting. Some company would have said, “oh yes ma’am, we will come out and tear out your ceiling.” I would definitely have them again.

They came out pretty quick. The gentleman was polite but I didn't actually use their services because the water heater couldn't be repaired - it had to be replaced. The estimate they gave didn't include the materials; it was just for the labor.

. Zach was punctual and very pleasant and patient. He quickly knew what the problems were and even made a trip to Lowes to purchase what he would need for repairs. Definitely knows his craft. I was very pleased with his professionalism and his work. Lots of service calls now are $75 so the charge was reasonable to me.

I had a horrible experience and I had to have another company come out and redo the job for $5000. The service was inefficient, it was leaking constantly, when the other company came in, they said he should have never put that kind of flooring in the shower. They had to take it out, gut it and start all over again. They were supposed to take 2 weeks, and they took 3 or 4 months to complete the service. It was leaking, and he kept on recaulking and that wasn't the problem. I would never use them again. I am sure not all the people they have are bad, but the one I had was incompetent. The price was good, but I had to go and get all the tile and everything myself.

Handyman Connection was good. He actually greatly re-made our outdoor lamp because it had corroded. He did really good. He was a little bit late which followed me, but he did such a great job. He completely fixed this light for us.

The repair went well and looks good. I had to provide all of the materials and do all of the preparation. But for the cost, it was fair. And the carpenter cleaned up afterwards and left everything stacked nicely. The experience was a little less personal than I typically like.

It went kind of smooth. We had a little slip up. The handyman gave me a cheaper quote for changing my lights. They got it resolved and fixed my lights without any additional cost. The guy that came seemed very thorough and was very professional. He did good quality work. It was management that did not do a good job with the customer service. I think that it was a fair price. I would not use them again.

We paid the full price despite the fact that several jobs were not finished. Some of the curtain rods had to be rehung--by us! We had quite a job to reposition them and patch the walls. This was just what we had wanted to be done. The closet door does not shut properly and the plaster work was never repainted. The handyman was cordial and tried to finish everything, but the overall experience was not as professional as we might have hoped.
Description of Work: The handy man was a very nice person who attempted to hang curtain rods, a closet door and fix problems in drywall. The list of jobs was not completed. Some of the work had to be redone and the plaster work received no paint or sanding.

We do apologize you were not satisfied with our services. I did look over the grade you had provided to us and your work order you did with us. We finished a project for you on 10/16/2013. We have a 1 year warranty on all of our labor, if there was an issue with what we did, we tell all of our customers to call and we will help in any way we can, we do not know something is wrong if we are not told. You provided us a low grade with our pricing, we let every customer know that our company provides free no obligation estimates, it would be your choice to accept or deline the estimate we provided.

We do apologize that the customer was not happy. We tell all of our customers that we do not provide any type of product or color, we only provide the labor. The reason for that is to avoid situations like this. We truly want the homeowner to be happy with their own selection of material and colors. We are happy to help with quantity and pick up.

I had agreed to an initial evaluation approximately three weeks prior on a Saturday morning. The day that the handyman was suppose to come, he did not show nor did I receive a call. I stayed at home the whole morning waiting, and I left several voice mails with the agency. I did not receive a return phone call until the following Monday from the receptionist. She reported that they had installed a new system, and it failed to deliver the message to their handyman. The service was re-scheduled for that day because I was off from work, and their handyman presented. He provided an estimate. I scheduled the work for 2/14/14 because I preferred to buy the materials at a local hardware store to offset the cost. The receptionists called 24 hrs in advanced to confirm the appt time, and the handyman called when he was approximately 15 minutes from my home. He completed all of the work, and it was excellent!! Outside of the inconvenience in the beginning, I would recommend and use the company again. I would opt for the same handyman because his workmanship was great! The only drawback is that I should have been offered an additional discount because of the poor customer service initially.

The weather stripping is the only job I was not thrilled with. The strip is not thick enough, so cold air comes in. Two different men tried to fix this. It looks nice, but doesn't help my problem. Everything else was nicely done.
Description of Work: I've used Handyman Connection a number of times. Each time I had a different handyman. Some of the jobs completed were regouting tiles around the tub, oiling ceiling fan on a cathedral ceiling, replacing handle and dead bolt, installing new bathroom fan, installing curtain rods, replacing weather strip around front door, etc.

Since we have worked for [member name removed] before we are disappointed that we did not earn a A from her. We will work harder next time. As stated in our profile we request our homeowners to purchase their own material after we have been there to give them measurements and how much of what they need. That would hopefully avoid situations like this.

Price above is approximate as this experience happened several years ago. During installation, they left several times for hours to get parts they didn't bring at the beginning of the day and they were chronically late. After installation, the sealant came apart after a week. We called management, who went out to repair it, stating that this would be the one and only repair. Well, his work probably lasted two weeks. A couple years later, we had everything re-done.

Response from Handyman Connection of Carmel
We are sincerely sorry that this customer was unhappy but indeed this was several years ago. As far as leaving the job to get parts we didn't bring, we are very up front about that. We tell every customer we do not provide parts. We are a labor only service. We will furnish a material list as far as what is needed so they can go shopping for what they like. This allows them to choose color, texture, style etc. We strive to save our customers any type of contractor mark up that is very important to us. This is a great way for a customer to get what they want and in most cases save substantial money. Quite often this allows them to buy a better quality of materials or to get more items done in their original plan than they thought. We also save them a delivery fee from the store in most cases. This policy is explained to every customer three times, when they originally call, at the time of the estimate and when the job is scheduled. It is also listed on or profile. We never have to leave a job to get parts when the customer reads and understands that it is their responsibility to purchase materials and either have them ready for us or on will call for us to pick up for them. As always we will help in any way we can. For example there was no additional charge to this customer for us to leave several times to get extra materials for them. As far as warranty we will stand behind any defects in labor for one full year. If a caulk fails for example that is not a warranty issue as it is not related to labor. You really can't install caulk wrong but the product can fail and that is not any contractors fault. If it cracked or peeled out this should have been taken to the manufacturer for refund. On a side note this report says that the work was completed in 2011 but our records how that it was long before that. We are sincerely sorry that they were unsatisfied with our service.
