The second day, he arrived several hours late because his truck broke down. It was raining that day so he did only 4 hours, mainly inside work. He used a "chip kit" to patch an area where the porcelain came off of our tub. Also did a lot of caulking in bathrooms and windows. Repaired about 6 window screens which our dog had torn up. Also replaced some of the woodwork on the side of our kitchen island (cut, sanded, stained). Did not charge the $25 service charge that day due to being late. On the third day, we had him come to finish up. He spent about 6 hours putting new board on the short fence by the house (4' tall, about 8' of fence), and rebuilding the fence gate. This was longer than we intended to pay for, but he did a really excellent job. Richard was very easy to work with, and he had great ideas for repairing things. He work was excellent, except for the repair of the bathtub which did not match at all and then came off completely about three days later, but he used an off-the-shelf kit for that. The fence gate is extremely sturdy and looks beautiful. He was great about telling us how to fix things ourselves that we did not necessarily want to pay him to do. My only complaint is that things took longer than we expected, and since we were paying by the hour it all ended up costing more than we had anticipated spending. That being said, I don't in any way feel that he was working too slowly or wasting time. He worked continuously the whole time. I think it is more that it was difficult for him to estimate how long things would take.

Bono in March of 2009 looking for a home to rent. I spoke to a real estate agent who said that she knew of a home that the owner might be interested in renting. She contacted the owner to see if he was interested in renting the home and he said that he was.( THE PROPERTY LOCATION IS 416 BONVUE ST. LAKE CHARLES, LA 70605). The owner of the home happened to be one of the owners of Delia Century 21 in DeRidder, LA. Even though the agent was completely aware that I was only interested in renting, she continued to hassle me into buying the property. After I finally made it clear I did not have any intention of buying the home, the paperwork and the rental contract was drawn up for the property. At first inspection everything seemed up to par inside the home, but little did we know that was far from the truth. We signed the contract and moved in right away. While moving in our first discovery was that our QUEEN size box spring to our bedroom set would not fit up the stair well, due to a careless remodeling job. When we contacted the real estate agent about the problem she directed us to the owner. He then proceeded to tell us that the box spring would not fit up the stairwell because that was not the master bedroom. We were quite baffled considering that the down stairs bedroom was tiny, and that the upstairs bedroom was enormous with two large walk in closets. My next question was what if I had a child that had a queen size bed? The owner proceeded to lie again and say the upstairs was not meant to have a queen size bed, and made it clear he was not going to fix the problem. The next problem was the broken garage door, which we were told was going to be repaired, but never was. From there the plumbing systems failed to the extent of there being about 6 inches of raw sewage in our showers. The dishwasher did not work properly, and some of the cabinets could not be opened due to incorrect measurements. After a couple months the real problems became apparent such as the fact that the Central air system was completely shot, and needed to be replaced. The owner called a company to look at the system and attempt to repair it. When the heating and air man arrived he said there was a major Freon leak in the system, and that by law he was not supposed to be refilling the unit with Freon because it was an EPA violation, basically that is was against the law. He contacted the owner about the issue, but was given the order to refill the system anyway, because the owner stated he was not going to buy a new central air system. From that point forward, every three weeks throughout the warm months of the year, the heating and air company came out and refilled Freon in the system against the EPA's regulations. About the time the central air system went out we noticed that the walls and floor were swelling in a particular area, which we later discovered was due to a leak in the roof, which nothing was ever done about either. Shortly after that we found buckling walls in the closet in the downstairs bathroom closet due to another roof leak. A few months later we started to notice the presence of the black mold that was appearing around the areas of the leaks. I though I could keep it cleaned away, but it was a complete disaster. My husband and I could not keep the bugs out due to there being direct access to the outside at the baseboards, which also presented a problem during the winter when trying to keep the home warm. The windows all throughout the house were rotting and swollen because they also leaked terribly. along with leaking, the windows also let in pests and cold air simply from gaps due to not being sealed properly. There was not proper seal around any of the doorways either, so when severe cold or hot weather came along we would have to put duck tape around all the base boards, windows, and doors to keep the place at a comfortable temperature. Our monthl electricity bills were normally between 250 and 300 dollars a month simply due to energy inefficiency. A couple months after moving in the toilets in both bathrooms simply stopped flushing correctly, something else that was never fixed. Our contract for the property was for one year, but we lived at the property for two years due to the fact of not being able to find another suitable property after the initial contract had expired, and also about half way through the second year we found out that we were moving out of the country, so we decided to tough it out in the house until we moved overseas. By the time we left the property, the home was actually falling apart. The garage still didn't work, There were huge cracks down all the walls in the living room, the mold was unbearable, the toilets barely functioned at all, the leaks were so bad in the roof that the ceiling was actually turing brown, and the central air unit wouldn't take a charge for any longer than a week or two. After spending hundreds of dollars cleaning the property before turning in the keys, we were disappointed to find out that the owner had no intention of giving us our $1000 deposit back. My husband and I were very disturbed by the fact, seeing that we paid $1000 a month every month, and were never late once. Not to mention all the problems, discomfort,and filth that we had to deal with during our time living at the property. My husband asked the owner for an explanation, and he sent an e-mail with pictures of chipped paint on the wall in our daughters room, a picture of a badmitton birdie that was found in the backyard, a few hangers that were left in the closet, random junk in the garage that was there when we moved in, and a picture of the damaged drywall in the stairwell (where we attempted to get our box spring up the stairs to our bedroom). My husband asked the owner if those few things were worth $1000, and the owner pretty much told my husband to forget it, because we were not getting the money back. I think the most disturbing part was that the real estate agent at Mike D. Bono tried everything in her power to sell us this home at the beginning of this ordeal having complete knowledge of the condition it was in. She would have sold us the home, and after we moved in we would have been Completely screwed in every sense of the word. It would probably take 50,000 dollars to repair the property just to get it in proper living condition. The real estate agent and the owner obviously have no conscience at all, seeing as how they would be completely able to lie, cheat, and take advantage of someone in one of the biggest purchases in their life, without loosing one minute of sleep at night. I know the owner is going to simply patch up the home a bit and put it right back on the market to sell to some other poor unsuspecting home buyer, and if he can't sell it he will simple rent it again and take advantage of someone that way. I do not want anyone else to be cheated and taken advantage of with this property, and I do not want anyone else to have to deal with the headache and torture that we did. So BEWARE "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/la/lake-charles/century-21-mike-d-bono-and-co%27s-reviews-5642993.htm"},"position":4}]}

I bought the "handyman for the day" deal for $319. The deal did not include the service call charge of $25, which was stated on the deal so no problem. Scheduling was no problem. Richard arrived about 30 minutes late the first day due to traffic. We had explained to work to be done, and...

FAQs for brush chipping projects in Merryville, LA
Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.
