It went well. He can be trusted to do the work when I wasn't home and nothing was disturbed that wasn't on his list of "to-do"s. He did a great job.

I am totally dissatisfied with wade Phillips as a business man and as of this report, there is no satisfaction guarantee.
Response from The Handyman
"Folks this is one of those ladies that lives in a mansion,has way to much time on her hands,and cant be satisfied, her own husband don't even come around her. The work I did for her was sound and complete.She is a liar and a spoiled brat.In all the yrs I have been doing this I have ran into a few like her. I found out after taking the job that no one in Joplin will work for her anymore due to her dysfunctional attitude. I guess ya cant please everyone! Please disregard this ladies report it is not true. ty for reading"

I came home from work and had a bright yellow flyer on my door stating The Handyman and listing all of his experiences. I had been thinking about brightening up my houses exterior. Heaven knows its been quite some time since I was able to get it painted. I called up this gentleman named Wade Phillips (The Handyman) and asked him if he could come by and give my a price on painting my house. The next afternoon I met with him and he gave me an estimate for the job and chatted about his work history. I talked it over with my husband and we decided to go ahead with it. I called him up about a week later and shortly after that he started the job, it took him about a week due to all this crazy weather we have been getting. But now that its done it looks beautiful! I couldn't be happier.
