"This is the 4th time I've hired Mr. Handyman, and the biggest job yet. I needed a wooden 8 x 10 shed assembled from a kit and anchored to a concrete slab. Bobby and Sean knew what they were doing. They did a fantastic job of wrestling the large, heavy pieces into place, deciphering the less-than-clear instructions provided by the manufacturer, and finishing most of the job in one day. They cleaned up after they were done, and were very helpful and professional throughout. Obviously, I am repeat customer, but I will continue to hire this service for my handyman needs."
"We were very pleased with the quality of work delivered on our project to repair our indoor stair railing. Over a period of two decades our cat had used the railing posts as a scratching post. We were concerned that the repair might not be esthetically pleasing without a full replacement. We were delighted that a pleasing and economical solution was delivered for this project in the promised timeframe. The assigned worker communicated well, offered options and delivered beyond our expectations."
"Mehdy and Ali came on time. Did good quality work in assembling, fixing various furnishings to the wall, plumbing, etc. I would recruit them again should there be any need"

"Management suggested having second man arrive for about a half hour to assist in lifting two large framed pieces. Work was scheduled for 9:00 am. First worker arrived at 7:50 and second arrived at 8:30. First worker installed hook, then remained for entire time, briefly assisting second (more skilled) worker hang the large pieces, otherwise talking and watching the entire time. In short we ending up paying for two handymen when only one did all the work, at a cost of well over $500. We politely brought this to the company’s attention. The phone representative agreed regarding the original plan, but we have heard nothing further. In our estimation, the first worker was not capable or equipped to do the job and we ended up paying for him to hang around while the work was done by his colleague. The final cost was outrageous and lack of response very disappointing to say the least."

Trampoline Assembly questions, answered by experts
Whether an in-ground or a portable basketball hoop is better depends on the available space and its usage. For hoops that will experience frequent play, an in-ground basketball goal will be a more durable option. On the other hand, a portable basketball hoop can be the better option for smaller spaces that can’t have a permanent hoop installed.
Many suppliers offer installation services, either directly or through reliable subcontractors. Discuss these needs when ordering, as they may require additional scheduling or payment.
The average cost to install a playground is around $500, with most homeowners spending between $150 and $1,200 on installation labor. The total project cost can range from $500 to $2,500. These prices typically do not include the playground equipment itself, which can cost an additional $100 to $1,500.
Several factors influence the final installation cost:
Playset Details: The type, size, material, design complexity, and number of accessories.
Site Preparation: Costs may increase if the land needs to be leveled.
Yard Accessibility: Difficult access for installers can raise labor costs.
Customization: Custom-built playgrounds are more expensive to install than premade kits.
Permits: Local permitting fees may apply.
Additionally, remember to budget for playground surfacing, which can cost $15 to $160 per cubic yard, or up to $225 per cubic yard for poured rubber.
Material markup costs and labor expenses are the additional primary costs of hiring a playground installer over building your own set. Labor costs are typically less costly than some more specialized home improvement projects. DIY swing set construction is less expensive than professional installation but will take considerably more time and effort to perform.
Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the equipment and site preparation required.
