A Handyman & A Greenthumb

Jeff and his crew replaced rotted siding trim on my house and primed and painted it to match the existing trim. And we had them fix some gutter drainage issues by extending a roof gutter downspout so it no longer drained onto the side of a dormer (bad installation by our original builder). They also built a 10x20 patio extension at the rear of our house on a slope so they had to build retaining walls with huge 80 lb landscape blocks. Before they could start on the patio extrension, they relocated a bush to another part of the yard and pulled up some edging that was in the way. They also dug up and relocated several day lilies that were in the way. After building the wall, they laid down a weed barrier, added some fill dirt, another weed barrier, gravel for drainage, then pea gravel (our choice) as the final surface. Everything went smoothly. They were punctual, polite, and professional. Jeff has done several projects for me in the past and for other members of my family and he always does a super job. His prices are fair, he does all the estimates himself, he works side-by-side with his crew, and he makes sure that everything is done to my satisfaction. He's even come back himself to tweak an item to our satisfaction at no charge. He and his guys are always polite and knowledgeable. And Jeff is an encyclopedia of ideas and products to help you design your project for lasting satisfaction. The trim he replaced had previously been "fixed" by a painting company only 3 years ago but it appeared that the previous company had patched old rotted trim with bondo instead of replacing it as told to but charged me for new trim (the trim in question is on the second floor and 50-60 ft up since our home is on a slope and I couldn't closely inspect it). Jeff suggested a composite product for the replacement trim that lasts 2-3 times as long as wood trim. It was a very slight up-charge for the product but it came preprimed and it will last a long time. He also suggested a different top surface for the patio like cement or pavers but we chose pea gravel because we like the look and we wanted good drainage since we're planning to add a greenhouse on that spot in the future (and Jeff will be building that too). In hindsight, Jeff was right about the pea gravel too-it's hard to walk on (like sand)-we should have gone with pavers or larger river rocks (we'll change that when we install the greenhouse). Jeff is my go-to guy for all projects relating to handyman, landscape, drainage, concrete...I call Jeff first with any project and he'll tell me if it's outside his field of expertise (ex. doesn't do heating and A/C) but he can do 80-90% of my projects and I love his work and his work ethic.

Their estimate was the lowest of three bids I solicited but their work was great. They were clean, showed up on time and did a fine job. I would not hesitate to ask them to do more work at our house.

They did a very good job. I will use them again.

It went very well. We weren't completely happy with the spindles and they came back the next day and did it to our satisfaction.

He did a great job. I liked his work. He was professional. He was punctual. I would use his services in the future also.

The project went extremely well. Jeff planned it all out ahead of time and so there were no surprises during execution of the project. Went exactly as he said it would. Additionally, he came up with a creative plan to move some decorative grass that will make things look even better a year from now. The actual cost of the project came right out to the penny to what Jeff estimated and I couldn't be happier with the result. This is the third or fourth project Jeff has done for us and I already have a couple more in mind for next year and the year after that. Jeff and his crew are very consciencious of what they do and how they do it and work very hard to ensure that it comes out as close to perfect as possible.

Jeff and crew did a fantastic job! Showed up on time, completed the work as promised all within the time frame and quote provided. Would definitely hire again for future work!

I initially found and emailed Jeff off of Angie's list. I sure am glad that I found him. Initially we were looking at putting in a 65' retaining wall in-between properties to solve a major grade issue. Jeff was responsive in his emails and in a short time we arranged a visit for an estimate. While speaking with him about the project, I also had him estimate a stamped concrete patio with a retaining wall/planting beds around the patio. Jeff quickly had a bid back that was well within expectations and actually below what I was expecting for several pieces of the project. He was more than willing to divide the project into smaller more economical pieces if we so desired. After a few emails back and forth answering questions, we decided to go with Jeff. We set an approximate date (get on his calendar early, he's a busy busy guy!) and were set to get started. While waiting we decided to add another section to the patio project which he estimated over email. and was fine adding. When it came to actually starting the project, Jeff and crew were Clean, On-Time, and very professional. He even helped to negotiate with the neighbors an area between our homes that needed dire attention, and came up with a solution that both parties thought was great. Their work was quick, efficient and done the right way. Jeff pays attention to quality and rolls with last minute changes without a problem. He cleared every portion of the project to make sure it was right before moving on to the next and successfully juggled our large project with some smaller ones he had running at the same time. His crew was willing to put in the time needed to get each phase done often times working 12 hour days (including Saturday) to work around weather and other issues. His estimate was exactly what he charged (plus the additions that we agreed on during the project) and there were no surprises when the final bill was due. It makes you feel good that there are still contractors out there that run their business ethically and responsibly. He isn't out to squeeze every penny out of you nor will he compromise the quality of work to save a buck. I already have other projects in mind for Jeff and crew to complete in the future, and have had several neighbors/relatives and strangers on the street stop by to get his information to hire based on the quality of work that they saw being done. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Jeff for any future project!

Jeff, came in early May to give me an estimate on pouring a side walk from the side of our house to the front drive so my 86 year old father could get to the car without going up or down stairs. His estimate was not the cheapest I found but was not the most expensive either. I was impressed with Jeff's knowledge and his ability to understand what I wanted. Due to weather and his schedule it was almost a month before he could start, but he kept me well informed about his schedule. On the morning he was to start he arrived with a crew of about 6 people who set to work at 7:30 and by about 1:00 they were done and I had a sidewalk poured. The next day Jeff and I fellow came and they removed the forms and did the grading of the dirt in about an hour and a half. The walk looks great. Jeff and his workers were highly professional and very pleasant. Very pleasant experience and I recommend Jeff and his company highly.

I decided to use them after seeing recommendations for them on Angie's List. They did a great job. They showed up when they said they would, started when they said they would, and finished when they said they would.

Extremely easy to work with and made extra efforts to satify customer.

We found Jeff to easy to talk with and he explained what need to be done and how he would solve our problem. His work was better than we expected. The steps in our back yard look wonderful. We will have him come back for additional projects.

Perfect. We had done business with Jeff and his team before, and were very satisfied. The work was of high quality and done quickly, and the crew was patient and accommodating even though I changed the configuration of the path halfway through the project. The patio abuts a goldfish pond, and when they cleaned and resealed the concrete, they took pains to assure no chemicals contaminated the water. We would definitely call this company first for any landscaping project!

Jeff and Dave did a great job with attention to detail and professional work. They are intent on customer satisfaction, and have always done everything required and more to provide a quality product.

Quote Ok. Worked performed all Ok. Jeff was very professional throughout.

The workers were consistently polite, they arrived as scheduled, and cleaned up after they finished the work. Their work is excellent, and they are congenial and reliable. I will certainly retain their services in the future, and highly recommend them.

Jeff and Dave put in a great deal of extra time and effort completing this project and making sure it was done to my satisfaction. Although the work was more complicated and involved than first anticipated, they nevertheless finished on time and did an excellent job.

They were able to squeeze me in on short notice. Had the job done in two days. Exceeded my expectations. Work was very professional looking. They cleaned everything up. Couldn't be happier with the work and it was fairly priced. I plan to use them again for another project.

Jeff was prompt in coming out for a quote and provided a detail written estimate. Upon contracting, he and his team showed up as scheduled, performed the work in a professional manner and cleaned up the job site when complete. They also put plywood down over the grass so that the bobcat didn't tear up the lawn. Overall, they did a great job!

It was a great experience from start to finish. They were patient with us while we made decisions on plants, and helped us come up with plants that would look great and be easy maintenance for our busy family. They finished the work quickly and picked up after themselves. Our house looks great, we would definitely hire them again and recommend them to anyone and everyone.

Did not show up at scheduled time, didn't call to let me know he wasn't coming, never heard from again.

The owner viewed the yard and basement and told us what was needed to solve the problem. We had an estimate by email with 2 days. They performed the work within about a week, which was sooner than their initial estimate. It took about 3 hours to complete the work. They left everything clean and no damage to any surrounding landscape. We could not have asked for better service and quality work.

I called and left a message and was called the next day. The work was completed the day after that. It's nice to find someone that wants your business and responds promptly. It was also done very well.

It went very well. I will be calling them again for more work needs. I have siding replacement that I want them to do next! They were so polite. They left no mess! Perfect cleanup! Beautiful sidewalk, patio, and driveway.

He was here on time and was very professional. He honored the discount stated on Angie's List at end. We are satisfied with everything.
