JEFF LASKY CAME TO SEE THE JOB PROMPTLY AND CONSIDERED IT CAREFULLY. HE WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL IN TELLING ME WHAT WAS REQUIRED AND ENDED UP RECOMMENDING SOMEONE HE KNEW WHO MIGHT BE ABLE AND WILLING TO DO THE WORK. I WOULD CERTAINLY HIRE HIM FOR OTHER WORK I MIGHT HAVE, BASED ON HIS KNOWLEDGE, HONESTY, AND JUST PLAIN NICENESS.

JEFF ACTUALLY ANSWERED THE PHONE BOTH TIMES I CALLED. THOUGH HE DID NOT HAVE TIME TO DO THE WORK, HE WAS EXTREMELY COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HIM FOR JOBS IN THE FUTURE.

THE WORK WAS DONE QUICKLY AND EFFICIENTLY. THE DOOR NOW LOCKS VERY WELL.

I CALLED AND LEFT A MESSAGE. I WAITED FOR A WEEK AND THEN SENT HIM AN E-MAIL REMINDER. HE CALLED TWO DAYS LATER AND SAID HE WAS FULLY BOOKED FOR ABOUT 5 WEEKS. I ACCEPTED THE WAIT. HE CAME TO LOOK AT THE WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE (REPLACE A KITCHEN CABINET, OPEN A CLOSET UNDER THE STAIRS, INSTALL A SHELF OVER A RADIATOR, PLUS MINOR MISCELLANEOUS REPAIRS) AND PROMISED TO SEND AN ESTIMATE IN A FEW DAYS. THREE WEEKS HAVE GONE BY WITH NO WORD FROM HIM, SO WE DECIDED TO HAVE NO FURTHER DEALINGS WITH HIM. OBVIOUSLY, HE IS NOT DEPENDABLE.

ALTHOUGH MR. LASKY WAS EXTREMELY BUSY, HE FIT ME IN AND CAME ON TIME. HE PERFORMED THE WORK IN AN EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL MANNER.

WE WERE LUCKY IN MAKING INITIAL CONTACT WITH JEFF LASKY, JUST AS HE (AND HIS ASSISTANT) WERE COMPLETING A JOB IN THE LATE AFTERNOON, ONLY A FEW BLOCKS AWAY, AND HE WAS ABLE TO COME TO US ON HIS WAY HOME. WE FOUND HIM TO BE PERSONABLE, KNOWLEDGEABLE, AND PROFESSIONAL. BECAUSE OF THE SHORT NOTICE, HE LACKED THE PARTS NECESSARY TO MAKE A PERMANENT CONNECTION OF DRYER HOSE TO WINDOW SOCKET BUT WAS ABLE TO EFFECT A SERVICEABLE TEMPORARY REPAIR. WE HAVE SINCE ACQUIRED THE REQUISITE PARTS AND EXPECT TO HAVE HIM BACK FOR THE PERMANENT INSTALLATION.

JEFF WAS ALWAYS AVAILABLE BY PHONE, ON TIME, VERY POLITE, INTELLIGENT, A GOOD PROBLEM-SOLVER. CAME WITH POLITE, HELPFUL ASSISTANTS. I THINK PRICE WAS REASONABLE, NOT ENOUGH TO COMPARE IT TO.

HE WAS ABLE TO FIT HIS WORK SCHEDULE AROUND MY AVAILABILITY, HE WAS ON TIME, VERY POLITE AND FUN TO TALK TO.

JEFF LASKY IS A REAL PRO. HE RETURNS PHONE CALLS, SHOWS UP ON TIME, CAREFULLY SUPERVISES HIS CREW AND RUNS A TIGHT SHIP. HE DID A GREAT JOB ON OUR WINDOWS. WE INITIALLY THOUGHT WE WOULD REPLACE THE WINDOWS, BUT JEFF REPAIRED THE WINDOWS SO THEY GLIDE UP AND DOWN. WE ARE HAPPY WE HIRED JEFF INSTEAD OF REPLACING WINDOWS. JEFF IS A WELL EDUCATED, KNOWLEDGEABLE GUY, WHO IS ALSO A VERY SKILLED CARPENTER. HE CAN PROBABLY FIX ANYTHING HE PUTS HIS MIND TOO. HE IS ALSO A GREAT COMMUNICATOR, SO YOU'LL ALWAYS KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WHILE THE WORK IS BEING DONE.

HE WAS QUITE RELIABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY. IT TOOK HIM A FRACTION OF THE TIME IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN US, HAD WE TRIED TO MAKE ALL THE REPAIRS ON OUR OWN.

MY EXPERIENCE WAS GREAT. JEFF RETURNED MY CALL PROMPTLY, WAS PROFESSIONAL IN HIS DEALINGS WITH ME, AND GOT THE WORK DONE WITHIN THE TIME FRAME THAT I REQUESTED.

JEFF PROMPTLY RETURNS MESSAGES AND ARRIVES WHEN HE SAYS HE WILL. HE COMPLETES THE CONTRACTED WORK. OVER SEVERAL SMALL & LARGE JOBS HERE, HE HAS NEVER RUN SEVERAL OTHER JOBS AT THE SAME TIME, RUNNING FROM JOB TO JOB AT THE EXPENSE OF A SMOOTH CONCLUSION OF ANY JOB. HE IS BRILLIANT AT DESIGNING TECHNICAL ANSWERS TO DIFFICULT JOBS AND INVENTS SOLUTIONS THAT WORK. HE IS INCREDIBLY ADEPT AT FIXING ANYTHING THAT MOVES. HIS PAINTING IS NEAT AND CLEAN. WE KNOW WHO TO CALL WHEN SOMETHING BREAKS OR NEEDS BUILDING. JEFF KEEPS OUR HOUSEHOLD GOING.

I DID NOT USE MR LASKY'S SERVICES DUE TO MY CHANGED PRIORITIES ON WHAT I NEEDED DONE ON MY HOUSE. HOWEVER, I WOULDN'T HESITATE AT ALL TO CALL HIM FOR FUTURE WORK. HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL. HE PROMPTLY RETURNED MY PHONE CALL, SCHEDULED A DATE TO COME BY AND TAKE A LOOK AT THE WORK TO DO, SPENT A LOT OF TIME DISCUSSING THE ISSUES WITH ME. AND THEN PROMPTLY SENT ME EMAIL ON THE JOB ESTIMATE. AND HE APPEARED TO BE A REALLY NICE GUY.

JOB 1: JEFF WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL HE ASKED THE RIGHT QUESTIONS TO ENSURE EFFICIENCY. FIRST HE CHECKED THE MAKE & MODEL OF THE PRODUCT BEING ORDERED. HE PREPPED THE WALL & THEN INSTALLED THE UNIT WITH PRECISION & DETAIL. JOB 2: THE WORK WAS EFFICIENT, COMPLETE & TIMELY. I MEASURED THE BASE OF MY CABINET & ORDERED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE CORRECT UNIT FOR MY HOOD RANGE. CHECKING FOR PROPER MODEL OF VENTILATION ETC. UPON REMOVAL OF THE OLD UNIT, JEFF DISCOVERED THAT THE POSITION OF THE ELECTRICAL WIRING DID NOT MATCH THE NEW UNIT. THERE WAS NO WAY FOR EITHER OF US TO KNOW THIS UNTIL THE OLD UNIT WAS DISMANTLED. JEFF GRACIOUSLY OFFERED TO MODIFY THE UNIT TO FIT THE EXISTING WIRING. HOWEVER, I PREFERRED TO ORDER THE CORRECT UNIT FROM THE MANUFACTURER. ONCE THAT WAS IN, JEFF CAME BACK TO INSTALL THAT UNIT. WHILE HE WAS HERE, I ASKED HIM IF HE COULD LOOK AT A CLOGGED DRAIN IN MY BATHROOM SINK. HE WAS ABLE TO UNSCREW THE PCV PLUMBING UNDER THE SINK & UNCLOG THE DRAIN. HE IS A LIFE SAVER!!!

JEFF PERFORMS EXCELLENT WORK IN TERMS OF THE QUALITY AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL. HE DEALT WITH MANY QUIRKS OF OUR HOUSE AND EVERYTHING LOOKS VERY POLISHED AND PROFESSIONAL. WE FOUND HIS COMMUNICATION AND PUNCTUALITY SOMEWHAT LESS SATISFYING. OVERALL, HE DID ABOUT 50-60 HOURS OF WORK OVER THREE WEEKS. HE DOESN'T WORK ON WEDNESDAYS, SO HIS DEFAULT WEEK IS 4 DAYS. HE WARNED US THAT HE WOULD ALSO BE TAKING A FRIDAY OFF TO FINISH HIS TAXES, AND THEN HE ALSO TOOK THE FOLLOWING MONDAY OFF WITHOUT WARNING. HE OFTEN SHOWED UP AT 11:30 OR LATER, AND ALWAYS LEFT BY 4:30 OR 5. HE INSTALLED A DOORKNOB IN OUR BATHROOM THAT HAD AN UNUSUAL PRIVACY KNOB, AND HE SIMPLY DIDN'T INSTALL THE PRIVACY BUTTON. WHEN I MENTIONED IT TO HIM, HE SAID HE WOULD LOOK FOR IT, AND I NEVER HEARD FROM HIM ABOUT IT AGAIN. OVERALL, WE COULDN'T REALLY DEAL WITH NOT KNOWING EXACTLY WHEN HE WOULD AND WOULDN'T SHOW UP, AND THESE OTHER SMALL ANNOYANCES, BUT OTHERS WITH MORE TIME AND PATIENCE MIGHT DISAGREE.

HE RETURNED MY CALL QUICKLY. I ASKED HIM TO HANG SOME PICTURES AND HE SAID THAT HE DIDN'T DO THAT SORT OF THING, BUT HIS ASSISTANT WOULD DO IT. A DATE WAS AGREED, AND HIS ASSISTANT CALLED A FEW DAYS BEFORE IT TO CONFIRM. HIS ASSISTANT NEVER SHOWED UP. I CALLED HIM; HE WAS SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT THE GUY HAD NEVER SHOWED, AND SAID THAT HE WOULD DO THE WORK HIMSELF. I NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN. The explanation that Mr. Lasky's helper gave him is not only untrue; it is absurd.? I never said I would call the helper.? I did not even have his number.? He called me, and I made an appointment with him, and was at home at the appropriate time, and waited for him, but he did not show.? ?If I had had his number, I would, at that point, have called him to find out why he wasn't there, and if he was still planning on coming.? I didn't; I couldn't; I called Mr. Lasky instead, as he says, to find out why his helper had disappointed me.

JEFF HAS DONE SMALL JOBS IN OUR HOME IN AN EXCELLENT MANNER. JEFF WAS ALWAYS ON TIME, AND USED HIS TIME ON THE JOB WISELY. HE IS A PROBLEM-SOLVER, COMING UP WITH THE LEAST COSTLY AND EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS. THIS IS WHAT HE DID FOR US AT OUR BATHROOM SINK. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JEFF LASKY OF LASKY HOMESMITH SERVICES.

I'M VERY PLEASED WITH JEFF'S WORK. HE FABRICATED COMPOUND BASEBOARD MOLDING FOR THE KITCHEN TO MATCH THE PERIOD MOLDING IN THE REST OF MY CA. 1920 CONDO. HE TOOK CARE TO SHAPE EACH PIECE TO ACCOMMODATE THE LACK OF RIGHT ANGLES AND THE WAVY FLOORS TYPICAL TO AN OLD BUILDING.

JEFF IS A VERY CONSCIENTIOUS WORKER. WONDERFUL ATTENTION TO DETAIL, EXTREMELY TRUSTWORTHY, AND VERY POLITE. HE COMPLETED ALL WORK ON TIME AND WITH QUALITY. I WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH HIM WHENEVER NEEDED.
