The service provider was prompt in arrival, took direction on items to be repaired and went to work with completion in the allotted time frame. The quality of the work was excellent and already scheduling to have additional work completed.

Superb! Mike arrived early and completed the repair under an hour just as he told me. Excellent work. Explained everything. I was so impressed that Mike returned my call the same day, Saturday! Being a holiday weekend I figured I wouldn't hear until following week. I am very happy with Mike and his work AND his response time! Reasonable charge for work.

I left a detailed voicemail message for Mr. Strassner that I needed some work done in our master closet. I included a detailed description and the fact that I was an Angie's List member. More than a week later, and no callback. His voicemail did not indicate he was out of town or that there would be a delay in callbacks. Back to the list.

We ended up going with a different company simply due to cost. Mike was very professional, got back to me in a timely manner, and showed up on time (a lot of contractors are lacking those skills these days). Although I didn't use him this time, I would definitely check with him again when I need work done.

Better than I could have hoped. I sent Mike an email on Saturday, June 27 and later than day he replied by text message. He actually came out on Sunday to get the requirements from me and completed the work on Tuesday and 1/2 day Wednesday. Considering the level of effort required to diagnose the issue and come up with the proper solution, I couldn't be happier. Mike and his team provide first rate work, fast, high quality and professional work. If you need handyman work, look no further. Mike will get it done right the first time, fast and reasonably priced. - Lou, Huntersville, NC

Mike Strassner sent me a nice text saying he was sure he could help and asked that I send a picture of the damaged columns. I sent the picture and he never bother to respond to me after that.

After consulting with the owner, we agreed to having the gazebo pressure washed instead of having it cleaned by hand; it would be quicker and more cost effective. The worker came on time on the designated day and was polite and efficient. A problem developed when the pressure washer roughed up the wood pretty badly during the cleaning. The worker did some hand sanding before applying the waterproofing, but the gazebo looked pretty rough. After letting it dry for a couple of days we examined it thoroughly and decided we were not satisfied with the results. I called the owner, who agreed to come out and examine the work. After looking it over he offered to come back the next day to go over the gazebo with a sanding machine, which we agreed to. He came the next day and corrected the problem. The owner was very pleasant and accommodating. The gazebo looks fine, and so do our sidewalks and patio which were also pressure washed by the worker. I would use this company again.

The service well, but for 750 I was expecting more. There was a little crease in the ceiling they didn't patch. It could've been done. For the price they charged, they should've done this.

The major job he accomplished during that time was about 60 feet of crown molding being painted in a bathroom. Two of the jobs we discussed he checked and said they were not necessary, Such as gutters did not need cleaning and he checked three cameras I have attached to my house for security system, none had to be removed . The final job 2 crawl space doors, were to be replaced, largest one was about 2 x 3 feet, there's not enough room to explain that job here... ( short version) he began the job, got about 1/4 through told me it was time to leave and I could get someone else to finish it. I asked what it would cost for him to finish it and when? It was something like $40 an hour I told him I wanted a set price, he calculated and told me $160...4 hours more, he returned on a Saturday the job took him two to three hours. He did not put in a new frame on one of the doors, first door already had a new frame, second, did not. What I got was excuses why not a new frame... I went along... paid him by check when he told me he was done. As he was leaving I saw he had put the materials he had replaced, the trash from the old doors in my garage. I stopped him and asked him about taking that to get rid of it. He told me that would be more money and a trip to the dump. I replied does he not take away the trash when he does a job ? His reply was , no . I was so disgusted I just told him go away. I could have stopped payment on the check until he moved the trash, but I didn't want anything else to do with him and I let it go. Had to manage getting rid of it myself. Knew I would be able to give a review to Angie's List, I think he means well, he works slowly, I provided all materials cost-wise that was not included in his price. He certainly didn't tell me it would cost more to take the trash away! I would not recommend him nor would I use him ever again.

I ordered the deal and within 3 days they were out here.  I ordered it Monday and they came on Wednesday.  There was a small fee of $10 for the drywall which was part of the deal.  It said that would be additional.   I would give everything about what he did an A.  He's actually not finished yet, he needs to come back.  He only put one coat on, so he's coming back next week.  So in terms of how the final project works I don't know how it's going to look until it's finished, but at this point everything seems to be an A.  He gave me a quote on some other projects.  Some painting projects and to put in a fan in, so those we'll probably do next month with him.

He did a good job, but the area needs a 2nd coat which time did not permit
