He came by one day to write down the materials he needed. The back door is offset in three different ways. The handyman said he got the wrong materials. The materials he used were not the ones he needed to use to make it more level. He said it would cost $200, which we complained about. I got in contact with the corporate office, and they stood by what they said. They said if I had anyone redo the work than I lose the warranty. They put on the receipt that he was not putting it up for appearence. Now we have to redo everything they did. Marion County is going to do a write-up for a violation when they do their inspection.
Description of Work: They installed two doors.

This report is incorrect everything we did does not need to be redone and the customer does have a warranty on the door install. The extra work that needs to be done is for additional rotten wood on the door frame that is not on our contract. We are not asking for additional money on the original project only to perform extra work that they did not pay for. We had a day and time scheduled to do these extra repairs and the member's daughter sent us away. There are no code violations and we have asked to be present when the inspector comes.

John called a few minutes before arriving, was very prompt, and a pleasure to work with. He spent four hours at our house on the job and left our door in better shape than it had been, so I feel the price was justified. Great job!!!
Description of Work: Our handyman was John Agee, and we are absolutely pleased with the work he did. We had to kick in our door a week ago because we had locked ourselves out. John replaced the woodwork into which the deadbolt fits, some hardware on the door, and fixed some moulding, adjusting our door knob, and touching up all his work.

Joe was very prompt, funny, and extremely professional. He walked me through everything he was doing and answered all questions in a professional manner. He was very neat. I had an estimate from another company for between $450-$500 for services. Handyman Connection and Joe completed the services for $261.oo..huge difference and worth every penny. I will definitely use them again!

Won't be hiring - this appears to be a big company and I would rather use a local company and be able to talk to the person actually doing the job or knowing the work instead of an operator.
Description of Work: Called to get an estimate to repair a downspout that had been pulled away from my house. They asked me for a time they could meet with me. I explained I needed a simple estimate and in fact, if they just called me when they were out there doing the estimate, I would go ahead and ok the work if the price was good. They advised they needed me to sign off on the work (which I can understand) but why I needed to be there while they do the estimate is beyond me. Actually, with it being such a small job, a rough estimate over the phone would have seemed logical.

We are sorry that this member did not allow us to meet with her to provide her with a free estimate. In our opinion this is the only way to do business properly so even on small jobs so there is no misunderstanding. Estimates over the phone are not proper in our opinion and lead to bait and switch when the contractor arrives. On another note if this member would have met with us she would have found out that we are indeed a small local owned business and that the craftsman providing the estimate would have also been the one to stay and do the work. There are no operators at our business just two individuals who have been in the business many years and are very knowledgeable.

The quote actually surprised me. I felt the labor charges were a little to high compared to the work described to me by the plumber and compared to the offer by the company in their brochures of hiring a handyman for a day for $ 500. Otherwise everything was really good from the moment of making the first contact with the company to setting up the appointment an the actual visit. They were very quick and on time. The only thing which really bothered me was that they were supposed to come back to me with the cost of material which they never did. They gave a quote on the labor and they said they will supply the material for the cost they get it for. The guy who came was supposed to give me a call the next day but he never called. I got a call back after a week but I never got the cost for the material. after this report was posted, I received an immediate call from Handy man connection. Although they mentioned that the plumber did call, I never got the message, so I do not know what went wrong. Because of my type of work, I would have remembered the call. If the plumber did call, I would have rated the overall experience as A to A-. The $ 500 mistake in the first report came from a communication error because the interview was taken on the phone by Angie's list.
Description of Work: We got a quote from Handyman Connection to install a natural gas line. They quoted me $370 with a coupon came to $320.

We have in writing that the bid we submitted to you was only $320, so I'm not sure where the $500 amount is coming from . Our plumber Damon did call you back and left a message for you to call us in regards to the material costs. He said you were out of town at that time and you told him you would be gone. We never got a call back from you in regards to that message about materials. We are going to follow up with a call to as well.
I was very pleased with them. They did a very thorough and professional job. They did a good job painting the trim and installation of the flooring. The price was fair.
Description of Work: I hired Handyman Connection to lay laminate tile flooring in a small bathroom and to finish some drywall work. They also fixed a fence gate and did some interior painting.

We were informed that our garbage disposal needed to be replaced. We were told which model to buy and given an estimate on installation costs. We were also instructed which model exhaust fan/light to purchase and given an estimate on its installation costs. Shortly after getting our estimate our next-door neighbor stopped over with an Allen Wrench and within 5 seconds unjammed our garbage disposal. Obviously we didn't know that garbage disposals could be unjammed so easily with an Allen Wrench but I would expect a professional would. We were disappointed that we were advised to get a new garbage disposal when it was actually a very, very simple fix and getting a replacement was unnecessary.

We regret that you had this experience with Handyman Connection. It is never our intention to sell you items that you do not need. This customer called in and asked for a price to replace the disposal which is what we gave them. Our contractor should have discussed their options with them and explained that there are times when complete replacement is not needed. We will use this feedback to get better. The price we did give for what we thought we were going to have to do is completely fair when compared with other contractors like us.

The whole thing was not organized. I had multiple projects and they did them in a different order than I was prepared for. Especially with the garage, I had to move things in there for storage but then they started there so I had to move things back out. I recommended getting a report each day so that you can keep an eye on what work has been done. This group was messy; they left nails, trash and dirt everywhere. My garage floor has drywall mud everywhere. I thought the work that they did was good.
Description of Work: Handyman Connection did some general work like replacing shingles, repairing gutters, and finishing the interior of the garage. They also hung some seasonal doors and fixed a vent that comes up the roof.

The plumber showed up on time and did everything that was expected of him. I now have a new kitchen sink and faucet that look great! He did have to replace the garbage disposal, which was an unexpected expense, but the old one was ruined because the previous homeowners had fastened it in too tight.

We spent $400 on that service. The job went excellent. It was freezing that day and he totally did an awesome job. We used them a number of times and they have always been very professional. One thing I noticed is that when they come in my house they put little booties on, so they don’t track stuff in the house. They are very price competitive and he is very professional. He was great. We would tell others that we would recommend everything about him. We would use him again and specifically ask for him.

Mike came out three times: once for the estimate and twice for the work. On his second visit, he determined that some old, existing duct work needed to be moved and that he was not qualified to do the work. A different contractor was hired for that work. Mike came out the third time and completed the job. Mike replaced the faucet with the hose bib and replaced the old plumbing with PEX. He explained the process and showed me steps along the way. I would not hesitate to use Mike again.
Description of Work: The exterior faucet for the hose was dripping. It was attached using the old boiler drain. Mike came out to examine the problem and determined that it was leaking due to old, interior plumbing. He recommended replacing the faucet with a new frost-free hose bib, and replacing part of the old plumbing with PEX.
Charles did a fantastic job, we had a leak around an upper story window and could not figure out where it was coming from. He quickly found that there was no z channel installed above the window. We were scheduled quickly and the work was done well. We will be using Charles again, he was great to work with, very friendly and courteous guy.

I spoke with Melissa who scheduled Brandon to come out and give me an estimate for the work, 2 days later. Brandon called me when he was on his way and he arrived early for the appointment. He evaluated what needed to be done and called Melissa for a price quote. Brandon was able to complete the work the same day. Both towel bars and the medicine cabinet were installed/hung into the plaster walls. Brandon cleaned up all of the mess. We are very happy with the work and will call Handyman again for other jobs.

They look at the project and what is needed and then quote you. It is easy to schedule an appointment with them. They were on time to provide the estimate.

Their quote was for $1500 which I felt was good. They were prompt and seemed to be very detailed about the job that I was looking for an estimate. I had a very good experience with them. They were courteous. When I wanted to discuss the job, they actually sent the guy that would do the job which was good. In that way, I did not have to explain the job twice as the actual worker would be the one that would show up. I have not yet decided on which service provider would do the job for me.

When we decided to remodel our kitchen we contacted three contractors for comparison quotes. When we contacted the Handyman Connection office initially, we received a prompt response. Melissa scheduled an appointment for Joe to come to our home within a few days. When Joe arrived he introduced himself and put booties over his shoes before coming inside. He was very courteous and considerate. We discussed our project and he took measurements. He told us of his plan to protect our floors and appliances during construction (this was very important to us). Joe showed us a notebook of photos from previous jobs he had done; they revealed good craftsmanship and creativity. Before he left, Joe provided a quote of labor costs for our project. This quote was slightly higher than others received, but we still considered it to be a fair price. Later Melissa provided us with insurance and reference information. We were very impressed with comments made from the references and their descriptions of Joe's work. Of the 3 contractors we met, we selected Joe of Handyman Connection to do the work. Unfortunately the schedule of our project was changed greatly due to the much earlier completion of another part of the project. Joe was not available to do his part of the work on our project in this earlier time frame. Melissa offered to find another craftsman to come when we needed, but we decided to select one of the other contractors we had already interviewed and from whom we had received quotes.
Description of Work: Joe came out to discuss our project and take measurements. He gave us a proposal for the labor costs before he left. Due to a change of scheduling on our part, Joe was unavailable to do the work when we needed it.

At 10:30 AM, I sent an e-mail via their website requesting a service call. By 12:30 PM, the work was complete. Ron was pleasant and efficient. My only complaint is that my Angie's List coupon wasn't honored because this was a minimum price service call. Only a difference of $9 and certainly not a show-stopper, however, the coupon didn't include this disclaimer.
Description of Work: My chandelier came unscrewed from the ceiling and dropped about 4 feet. The wiring was intact but he had to re-attach the mounting.
