Get matched with top fire pit installation pros in Darnestown, MD

"They installed a new patio door handle for me - it wasn’t easy since I didn’t buy the right direction handle haha but they made some adjustments. Fair pricing, flexible scheduling. Would hire again!"

"We were delighted with the outcome of the installation of a new surround on our fireplace. This was a re-do of an initial installation by another contractor that did not work out too well! I was nervous about getting this done right and Kevin put me at ease immediately. He was precise, highly skilled, and very aware that we were not happy with the first installation. It turned out beautifully."

"Artur Zefi installed various items for us, including a closet railing system, following our move. He indeed a great job: Artur was friendly, efficient, professional and knowledgeable. Where innovation or adaptation was required, he did so with skill and care. We would definitely hire him again."

"Professional and affordable, did a great job on our pergola install!"

"Took his time to carefully diagnose the problem on the first visit. Came back as soon as the part arrived and fixed the stove burner."

"Based on several other A/L reviews, I called and scheduled to have Todd come out to our house for this job. There was a wind storm the week before and three pieces of our siding blew off. They came from the tallest part of the house to boot. I was not about to go up there on a ladder. Todd arrived on time, about 5:30. I pretty sure Todd is only available at night, but certainly that comes in handy so as not to have to take time off from work. Todd looked at the siding and explained that the installer did not use nails, but simply snapped them into place. That lasted decades, but still, he was telling me they should be screwed/nailed into the house. He attached the pieces and used silicone to seal around each of them. It was completely dark by the time he had finished (he brought a light), but when I looked at it the next day (with my telescopic camera lens), I could see that it was done neatly and professionally. I delayed writing this review so I could see if his work held up through a few months of winter winds, and it has! Due to my very positive experience with this job, I would not hesitate to have Todd come back out to my house for additional jobs in the future."

"Everything went just fine. The handyman explained how he planned to do the patch over the hole in the floor and quickly accomplished the task. I would definitely hire this company again."

"Extremely professional - left all areas where installs were performed cleaned and better than it originally was. They worked quick doing all the work we requested much faster than we thought! Incredibly satisfied with the results."

"Did a nice job on my storm door and say they will do essentially anything that doesn't need a building permit. They're gonna be my go-to for any future work I'm not confident I can do myself (or just feeling to lazy)."
