It took me a long time to schedule this, I was afraid he was not going able to come out. He was prompt and efficient, and he did an excellent job. It was an aluminum ladder that he installed and aligned. He cleaned up well after he was finished. Everything was great!

The installer, Paul, was punctual for the estimate and for the day of service. He called both times to notify me he was on his way. He got right to work doing each random job and cleaned up after himself as he went from each one. He knew exactly what he was doing. The materials he had me buy beforehand for the job he explained clearly and I had no issues purchasing them. I will definitely use the Handyman Connection and Paul again for more jobs around my house. I've been looking for a good handyman to have in my address book and I just found him. The price came in at the estimate. The price for the 5 small jobs seemed very reasonable to me. Paul also gave me a quote while onsite for a couple jobs I want done down the road. Would highly recommend them!
Description of Work: Installed a fireplace blower, installed 2 garage lights, mounted 1 tv on a entertainment center, mounted 1 tv on a bracket (hid the cords on this mount by fishing the power and cable behind the wall) and fixed my sump pump discharge pvc that had cracked due to weather.

Installer had never installed one before but didn't tell us until he finished. He came back several times but we finally had to ask for someone else that knew a little more about the system. It was installed incorrectly and the second installer said he corrected it. 1st installer lied about placement of system which is important for proper function. He also muddied carpet and tried to hide by placing a throw rug over it. Out of the 10 items on the installation checklist, five items were not done by first installer. Receptionist at company was rude and unconcerned about our problems. We will never use this company again nor would we recommend them.

Response from Handyman Connection of Carmel
[member name removed] Handyman Connection apologizes if you feel you had a bad experience. We have never spoken to you only to [member name removed] and we addressed his concerns and scheduled a time at his request to come out and repair any outstanding issues based on his schedule. We found that the unit was installed completely correctly just a couple of inches too high and we corrected it immediately. If someone spoke rudely to you it had to be the company you purchased the unit from as we had very nice conversations with [member name removed] As far as the pricing goes we are only the installer and do not set the price. The price you paid for your instillation was set by the company you purchased the unit from and would have been agreed to before they ever sent us out to install it. There is no markup whatsoever from us. We apologize if the receptionist at the retailer was rude to you but it was not us. We also did a follow up call to [member name removed] and he stated to us that he was completely satisfied with us and there were no further issues. We do apologize if he brought dirt into the house from the crawl space. That would be our fault and will be addressed with the installer. Your other concerns about rudeness and price should be addressed with the retailer of your unit. Sincerely, Handyman Connection.

I called to set up an appointment. Scheduled it over my lunch hour. Handman did not come nor did he call. I called them and they said the handyman got side-tracked and can get there in another hour. I said no thank you i'll get another handyman. Horrible punctuality and professionalism. Handyman never called and office unapologetic. Don't use this service.

Response from Handyman Connection of Carmel
There seems to be a error with this review. Handyman Connection does not have any customer in our database with this name or address. We very seldom service Whiteland and feel this post could be in error. Even the date that the homeowner says we were to be there, November 16th is a Sunday and we do not work on Sundays. I do believe that this homeowner has us confused with someone else. Even if that was not the case, it is any contractors job to finish what he is working on before he goes to a appointment. It is not uncommon for a job to run over what we think it may take. Even if this was our customer we would be obligated to finish another project and get the homeowner taken care of before we go on to something else. I would hope that most customers would understand this and appreciate it instead of being upset because their appointment was pushed back by a little as one hour.

After he gave me an estimate on the price, I agreed to the work and he said he would have to come back to do the work and I would be contacted by the main office to set up the appointment. Four (4) days later I called the main office because I had not received a call to set up the appointment. They then told me it would be another week before the work could be done. This was a simple 20 min job and I could not wait a whole week for the work to be done. I cancelled the order. If you want a job done fast, don't call Handyman Connection
Description of Work: They sent out a handyman the same day I called and he gave me an estimate on the work. It was a simple vinyl siding repair.

Two words for you. Lonnie Schauwecker! He was our assigned craftsman, and he was awesome. Conscientious, skilled, with a high attention to quality and detail, we would and will hire him, through Handyman Connection, again in a second. I remember once we paid him a compliment, and he said, "I do jobs like I was doing them for myself". That wasn't just talk. That's exactly how he performed. Handyman Connection has a very appealing pattern to how they manage these jobs. You get a detailed free estimate (and if you're like us, that's refreshing, after being accustomed to paying $80 just to get someone to your home), a firm start date for your project, and our craftsman (Lonnie) stayed on the job as persistently as he could weather permitting. I assume this is their norm. If you have an issue, which we never did, you can raise it with H.C. directly. We never had to test this. Another cool thing: You can buy your own materials, and avoid any mark-up. You can also cooperate with your craftsman if the materials are out of your range of knowledge or ability to transport. We did both. We went and shopped for and purchased our own tile. But we had our craftsman purchase and pick up the lumber for the fence for us, since we had no means of transporting it. Either way, there was no cost mark-up to us. We were given materials receipts for the lumber and items that our craftsman picked up for us. So, yes, we recommend this company, and Lonnie in particular.
Description of Work: We gave our craftsman a list of about 12 things to do, which ranged from repairing our damaged and deteriorated fence, to tiling our bathroom. It also involved some very small projects, like hanging a mirror, fixing a cabinet door, etc.

I had quite a list of items that needed completion and one handyman was able to do it all. When Greg reviewed my list and we walked throughout the house he indicated this would take multiple days (as I suspected). So most of the work was completed during a few days one week and the kitchen floor was completed over two days the following week. I couldn't be more pleased. There was so much to do we discussed what order and confirmed I had all the materials. After insulation was blown in the porch ceiling and the porch ceiling put back in place you couldn't even tell the ceiling had been down before. Greg inserted fiberglass insulation around new windows that had been installed, then miter cut and installed interior trim to conceal the gap between new windows and the existing window frame. He did this to every window in the house. He also replaced a window frame that had been damaged during window installation. He moved one ceiling fan and installed another new ceiling fan. Greg also installed wire shelves in the basement. But the biggest single task, and the most daunting, was to install a new linoleum floor in the kitchen. Many flooring companies looked at the "soft spot" in the kitchen of my 1916 home and didn't want to tackle the job. It seemed they wanted to lay new linoleum over the old linoleum and call it a day but that approach wouldn't fix the nails working their way up through the old linoleum. Greg removed the old linoleum floor and opened up the floor so we could see the joists underneath to determine the problem. He repaired the floor, making it smooth for the new linoleum. All appliances were removed from the kitchen for the work and then reinstalled. I'm very happy with the workman and the quality of work performed. I will use Handyman Connection again.

It began great. Constant communication, quick replies to my questions and concerns, and willingness to work with me on materials. This worked for about a month when Handyman connections suddenly began taking longer to respond to my inquiries and previous work that was given to them was not getting done. An example: One project, replacing a garbage disposal, a sink sprayer, and some parts of a sink faucet I have completely lost communication about. The first repair took a bit to get someone out there because they were so booked, but the repair didn't work. I asked if they could go back out and just replace the entire faucet this time. We made arrangements for it and I was told there was an appointment to go on August 4th, but never heard anything else about the work there. I asked for invoices for two of the projects last week and still not received them, and I'm not entirely sure if one of the projects was ever actually completed. I asked for a rebid to finish work on the second one and still have not received any word on it. We will be finishing out our projects with Handyman Connections, but we need more reliable communication from our contractors. Update: The company is not filing a lien against one of our properties for work that was never completed. Per the service agreement, they were to investigate electrical issues in a property for up to two hours at $70 per hour and report back with a final bid. Their subcontractor went ahead and did the work without approval and left the job half completed. Handyman Connections then told us it would be another $160 to complete the job. We never received any kind of bid for the total work to be done or the results of the investigation that we were being invoiced for. This "job" start to, well, partial completion took over a month because of Handyman Connections lack of communication.
Description of Work: I asked Handyman Connections to do some various maintenance and punch list work at some of our new properties.

I made arrangements for them to come after work to give me an estimate for the work I wanted done and was pleasantly surprise that they went ahead and completed the work that evening. I could not unlock my deadbolt without lifting up on the door handle to raise the door enough for it to slide open and it had become impossible to lift it enough to get it unlocked. During a storm, the wind had knocked the lamp off of my light pole and it broke so I had purchased a new one but needed it installed. The young man who came to do the estimate said he could do all the repairs. He adjusted the door and locked and unlocked it several times to make sure it was working smoothly. He then attached the new light fixture to the pole and hung my towel holder. He was very pleasant, completed the work quickly and cleaned up when he was done. My first experience with this company is excellent and I will definitely call them again for my next project.
Description of Work: Repaired a stuck back door, replaced the lamp fixture on an outside light post and hung a towel rack.

I thought they were very professional. I thought that the price was very reasonable. I felt like they knew what they were doing. There really wasn't any surface marks on it. It was a handyman service which is what I wanted. They didn't try to sell me something that I didn't want. They knew that I just wanted to get this door to fit so that I could have another bedroom. They came out and did it.
Description of Work: For the doors, I got Handyman Connection. They had to resize the door that I have. It was an existing door in my house but it didn't fit the door frame that I needed for the type of door on in my bedroom. They cut the door down to the size and they put the door in my bedroom's door frame.
