He responded quickly to our initial call and came out to give a quote which was accepted. He showed up on time the first day and did a good job installing the subfloor. A return date was agreed upon when he would re-install the toilet after we installed the new flooring. He did not show up and never called. He called the next day and stated that his truck had been in the shop for repair and since he left his phone in it, he had no way to reach us since our # was in that phone. We accepted that explanation and he proceeded to re-install the toilet. We set a date for him to return to caulk the toilet and install a new sink/countertop/faucet at an agreed upon extra charge. He never showed up to finish the job, never called or responded to our repeated calls and messages. We were very surprised and disappointed in this unprofessional behavior. This is exactly the kind of thing we were hoping to avoid by using Angie's list. If you want your job completed do NOT hire him. The work he DID do was fine,that's the only reason he didn't get "F's" across the board.
Description of Work: We hired John to pull a toilet, install a subfloor in our 1/2 bath , and re-install the toilet. After his 1st day of work we asked him if he would also install a new sink/countertop and faucet which he agreed to.

Please see above...the only thing I can add is I called him, he answered the phone immediately ( I had called five other handymen that I had to leave messages with, although one did call me right back and he was booked solid for three weeks and another did call later that evening). He came out when he said he would, which was when we got home from work, about 6pm. He did everything we asked and then some.
Description of Work: We needed help with two items. The bath tub rail we had on our tub had rusted out on one side and we needed to replace it. We originally put the existing one on many years ago. We were not able to remove it. John removed the old one, put on the new one we had and cleaned up after he was through! The second problem was major to us. We have a queen size bed which sets in a wood frame. The head right corner had broken from the frame. We were unable to do anything with it ourselves. John repaired the broken part proceeded to anchor all four corners with double screws, replace the box springs and flip the mattress for us! His pricing was so reasonable that we felt we had to pay more as we would have been willing to pay a higher price. He asked $30, but, we paid him $50. He is very personable and we intend to give his name to a number of our friends who would use him and we will call him in the future. He also told us to call him in six months and he would flip our mattress...NO CHARGE! GREAT SERVICE!!
