Can't rate what hasn't been completed. We are still waiting. They finally checked the roof after several attempts to contact them. They did not check the attic as the contract stated. Told us what was wrong and needed to be fixed and we requested they proceed with the work that needed to be done.....still waiting. We are frustrated because winter has kicked in, we paid the money and have not rectified our issues. Price charged thru Angie's list was $135; quote to have work done is $175. Total $310..ouch!

Fit us in ahead of schedule due to an opening for a smaller job he had. Ended up being a bigger job than first thought. We had 4 layers hidden underneath and far more rotted wood then we had guessed. The job ended up taking all day on a Friday where they stayed late and still were not done due to so many extra steps they had to take. There top guys all agreed to come back on Saturday and out in another 8 hours and never rushed to be done even taking the time to fix little extra things on our house that had been done wrong years ago by previous workers. In the end we were not upcharged for any of the extra tear off time and the extra rot and damage was very fairly billed and did not exceed our original budget. Louie was on site for the start and a few times during the job. Also returning on Saturday to make sure we were happy with the progress and the I make sure everything that we ordered was known by the crew. He was also available at any time of the day to take a phone call fo any questions if he wasn't on site. In the end we asked for quotes on a few other things we want to do some day for our house because we feel like we have found someone we can fully trust at an affordable fair price.

Excellent service. Few roofing companies actually do it right. Loui and his team do excellent work at a good price. When you hire these guys you know you are getting the job done right, the first time! You can always call them before, after and during any job. Cant find a better roofing company in the Buffalo area

The job went well. They showed up on time and I was completely satisfied with the work. Louie and his team are very qualified and they take pride in their work. There's something to be said about a company that keeps the same crew, year after year. I look forward to working with them in the future. Thank you, Home Handyman!!

We recently had a new roof put on by Home Handyman Services and they did a fantastic job.  This was not an easy job.  We have a 2 ½ story house with two dormers and very limited access.  The Home Handyman crew was extremely professional and respectful.   They cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day and at the conclusion of the job.  The owner, Lou, is the most responsive contractor we’ve ever experienced.    He explained everything thoroughly and informed us of issues that arose during the course of the roof replacement.   He was also receptive to changes that we requested.   His estimate matched the final bill.    We highly recommend Home Handyman Services.   Their work is of the highest quality.

This was a large and complicated job, which Lou and his team handled flawlessly. Home Handyman Service has been replacing roofs in Buffalo for 40 years, and this experience definitely made a difference in dealing with this roof. Great work. Would definitely work with them again.

Can not complain one bit about Louis and his crew. Very professional. Started at 8 am and worked all day. We recently got new landscaping down. I still have yet to find one nail anywhere. Their crew did a great job cleaning up. Ivy construction gave me a quote for 35k for my roof. Let's just say Louis made it much more affordable as my roof was a monster.

Response from Home Handyman Services
"Customer was notified of booked up schedule. Was told that an estimate would come if we were able to do the work. Unfortunately, our scheduling did not permit us to take on new work at the time. If there were calls made to check on status that went unreturned, I sincerely apologize as we had some family concerns over the past month. Although this work is something we cannot take on until Spring, we would love to be considered for the work although I understand your hesitancy in this situation. This mistake was definitely due to a lack of communication on my part during a very stressful time. Full apologies.- Louis Gott owner"

Can't say anything other than great.  No extra charges for considerable damaged sheathing replacement.  I asked for numerous additions in the way of non-roofing work without estimates and was absolutely surprised at how little they cost when we settled up.  There was virtually no damage to landscaping and I never found a single nail left on the property.  Lou Gott and his crew were a pleasure to work with.  Oh, despite a record-breaking winter, no leaks or other failures despite multiple chimneys and valleys.

it went well, was done quickly.  I don't think there was much debris to clean out, but glad I had it done anyway.

They were very professional and did excellent work.  They arrived on time and went straight to work with sufficient manpower to get the job done right.  They were courteous and did a good job cleaning up after themselves.  Good advance communication scheduling a time for an estimate.  They understood that the job was somewhat urgent because of a pending sale of the home and accommodated us during a busy week.  Overall a very good experience with this company.

They came when they said they will and finished on time. They also cleaned up after themselves. I have recommended them to others. I am very pleased with them.
