I was glad to find out that this John Betz and Sons also works in the Frederick area, where I’m moving. They can help with many things around the house, but they were the only group I found who could fix windows. And they knew what they were doing! I didn’t need to replace a crank on a casement window — they found and fixed the problem, which saved me $$$. I will definitely keep there number for future projects.

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).

Mr. Betz installed 13 door knobs on my old, old doors. The door knobs were intricate and he worked them superbly! Might seem easy but several other carpenters could not do this job. Although not a large undertaking, Mr. Betz worked me into his schedule, performed the job great, was on time, was clean and made it clear that if anything was not done to my satisfaction, he would return to correct. Great job, Mr. Betz!

Home Advisor rating system has a limitation on how to choose the projects, so let me recap here in detail. I found John Betz & Son (Silver Spring MD) through Home Advisor. After several calls to other recommendations, John (himself) was the only one to answer his phone, pull over (he was driving), talk me through all the handyman work I thought I needed (the list grew!), get my information, and set up an appt (all on the side of the road). For our initial walk-thru, he showed up not on time, but Early! He confirmed the type of work I needed, from my other experience with a previous walk-thru. We set up a date/time for the first priority job because it had a deadline -- he showed up early for that appt, and he and son did an excellent job fixing rotting exterior front door wood, and painting (and painted more than was requested too, to make it look seamless!). The other jobs were not an emergency, so we set up 2 days the following week. He again showed up early with his son on BOTH days. They worked all day, both days, on the following: caulking exterior windows, pediments, garage door (and checking exterior for any leaking); re-hanging & securing a shutter; replacing an exterior keypad for my garage door opener and setting up the coding system; replacing/repairing drywall in the garage; fixing kitchen sink (repaired garbage disposal and replaced piping/drainage repair for other sink); replaced a ceramic tile in dining room (and matched grout so perfectly I couldn't tell which tile had been replaced afterwards!); drilled and installed new locks on a living room window; MADE and installed 2 screens for living room windows; repaired threshold wood strip in basement that runs between carpet and tile floor; AND THEN, he checked a vent return that makes periodic noise, and checked behind insulation to be sure no mold/damage was present -- those were no charge :-). John gives a full electronic estimate for his work before it begins, accepts major credit cards (if really necessary), and sends an electronic receipt. During this time, I was able to talk with John and get all my handyman fears put to rest, as he is an expert, and can do work from top to bottom of your house (not just handyman work). I highly recommend John Betz & Son -- my experience was 5-star!!
