"Good points:  they were punctual.
Bad points:  they left trash in the yard that I had to pick up; the ceiling in the room that his crew painted has bled through stains that he failed to correct even after I pointed them out; they were rushed the entire time; they took shortcuts and did not paint under the outlet covers and I had to ask them to go back since I had bought all new covers and the old paint showed and still they failed to paint under all of them so I had to go back and paint it myself; a piece of furniture that Mr. Bautista worked on still has a sticking door and now needs to be stained because he took off so much wood with his planer; a member of his crew parked on the grass two of the three days they were here when I asked them not to park there; it took three people to install the ceiling fan after much trouble and they had almost given up on it and told me that I would have to take the fan back after it was in pieces; Mr. Bautista was in a rush the entire time which led to mistakes and trash left in my yard; it was obvious that Mr. Bautista was not interested in working on my house; it is difficult to contact Mr. Bautista by telephone because he never picks up; and there were gobs of white mud or spackling dropped on closets doors.  The mud was removed but not painted over even though he was using the same color paint.  Mr. Bautista later mentioned his rich clients and I later realized that was the reason for his apathy on my job.  Mr. Bautista seemed more interested in his rich clients.  I paid him in full the same day he completed his work.  But he refused to correct the problems I pointed out with the ceiling paint.  Please view the photos attached.
More bad points:  Mr. Bautista borrowed my sander to work on my furniture and he installed the sand paper incorrectly.  I have to buy a new plate on the bottom of the sander.  The door he worked on still sticks so I will have to work on it myself and then stain it.  After his use of his electric planer, I lost confidence in his work, became worried about my furniture and objected to the bad smell coming from the planer.  
I told Mr. Bautista about the trash in the yard but he did not come back to get it.  I found another piece of trash this week. 
Later, I found out that Mr. Bautista is very successful and has a lot of "rich clients" and wants to keep his reputation and will not work on my house because I thought his workers had inadvertently taken my rubber hammer.   Because I had to paint after him, I had to get out the paint, and couldn?t find my hammer to close the paint can.  I had a lot of my own painting tools out in the same room his workers were in and thought they had inadvertently picked it up.  I later found it and apologized before he ever read the first email because I wrote the email late at night.  I sent the second email before he would have received the first one but he used that excuse to say that he would not work on my house again as previously promised although I do not want him back.  Since he thinks that I am not a rich client as he mentioned them, he did not seem to care much about me.  Perhaps that
explains for the substandard rushed work.    
He told me about how successful he was this year and last.  He also told me that although he had a $30,000 construction license, he gets around it by separating jobs into smaller jobs and can make considerably more than $30,000 on a job.  His brother was building a house.  I consider that unethical and greedy.  There are more than 3 workers on his crews as
it states on the description of his business.

"We were very happy with the work completed by Leon Home Repairs. They were efficient and thorough. The work included installing a new countertop, sink, faucet,, and light fixture in one bathroom and painting the bathroom; removing painted wallpaper from one large wall and smoothing and painting the wall; replacing one set of bifold closet doors and trimming off and adjusting multiple other sets so they would operate smoothly; and replacing large window panels and the door in our front entryway. Dimas, who served as the foreman for the work on our house, also smelled gas in our utility closet and on his own initiative, figured out where the gas leak was and showed us, so we could call someone to come repair that. The team had an excellent range of skills and knowledge to tackle the variety of work we needed them to do. We will definitely call Leon Home Repairs again if we need more work done in the future."

"This job was pretty challenging because it required that a house that had been aesthetically neglected for the past 5-10 years be updated.  In addition, time was of the essence because I had to travel in from out of state to oversee the changes/updates.  The following was done:
All walls, ceilings and internal doors painted
Repaired wall crack
  • Hardware added to all cabinets
  • Fixtures updated on 2 bathrooms and kitchen sink
  • Bathroom shower curtain rods, towel bars, etc. installed
  • Ceiling Fans installed
  • Toilet Rebuilds
  • New blinds installed in whole house
  • Various small repairs

We were extremely happy with the quality of work done and the professionalism exhibited by the Western Handyman of Western Wake County staff. 
Bruce (the owner) even checked in regularly with us regarding the job status and to ensure that we were happy with the quality of work.  He even came over one night to help paint to when things were looking like they were a little behind schedule.
I would highly recommend Mr. Handyman of Western Wake County to ANYONE!!! Bruce and Andi (the office manager) are delightful beyond words.  They are professional, responsive, thoughtful and accountable.  When we encountered challenges along the way, we were not treated as a nuisance.  We were treated as valued customers.  
Overall, a very positive experience.

Bathroom Fan Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can run an attic fan with the AC on. In fact, you don’t have a choice with a passive attic fan. Plus, when an attic fan draws out hot air from the attic, it helps regulate the temperature of your whole home, so your AC doesn't have to work as hard.

It is unlikely that a ceiling fan will fall, even if it develops a wobble. During a proper installation, ceiling fans are securely bolted to a ceiling joist, and the fasteners used for mounting are generally separate from the components related to balancing. A wobble is typically caused by an imbalance, which can be annoying and may lead to other issues, but is not usually dangerous on its own.

However, if a fan is wobbling because it was not installed correctly, it could be at risk of falling. For safety, it's always a good idea to ensure all mounting screws are tight and to address any wobbling or imbalance issues promptly.

Depending on the thickness of the carpet, it can take anywhere from 4 to 12 hours for carpet to dry with a fan. The humidity and temperature of the room also play a role in drying time, as added moisture in the air can result in longer drying time. 

A blower and a fan serve different functions, so whether a blower versus a fan is better depends on what you need. If you need to heat or warm your home, it’s important that the HVAC blower is in good working condition. If you want to prevent an AC unit from overheating, make sure to keep up-to-date on condenser fan maintenance.

Blower fans are better for preventing mold growth than dehumidifiers because they target the damaged areas and increase the rate of evaporation, which dries out the building materials. Ideally, you should run blower fans and a dehumidifier, as this will allow the fans to move dry air over your damaged building materials, drying out the space even more quickly.
