He came over several times to repair my 89 year old dads lift chair. After approximately 3 visits all it was - was a light switch not turned on and ran down the battery. After my dad purchased several batteries. On last visits my dad made it clear it was not happy with the constant repairs that needed to be done. He picked up his tools and walked out saying my father insulted him. We later had another company come out and we were told it was not fixable. The batteries were gone, wire were cut and the charger was disconnected, He clearly did this. Sad you would do this to an 89 year old person.

Once you get a hold of Jerry (which can be a little difficult ? he's not always the most prompt in returning inquiries), he does excellent work. He arrived when he said he was going to arrive, made short work of fixing the treadmill. He was very thorough, even taking off the frontpiece where the motor was to vacuum it out. He took his shoes off (it was a muddy day outside, so he clearly respected our home's cleanliness (even when I pointed out to him the place looked like a bomb had gone off already, so there was no need for him to be so fastidious). He even put up with my lab/collie mix puppy who, while extremely friendly, is a jumper. She's just so anxious to give kisses to anyone who arrives at our home. A little rambunctious doesn't even really describe it.  
Jerry handled it with grace and patience, even as I was getting more and more frustrated with her inability to show some manners.
I would HIGHLY recommend Jerry if you have any household projects you need to have done ? and need to have done well.

I found Jerry on Angie's List about 1.5 years ago.   Jerry is very nice, professional, on time, reliable, and talented.  He installed hardwood flooring on a very difficult landing and stairs. He also did some finish carpentry work in the kitchen, installed the in-ceiling oven vent, as well as other miscellaneous carpentry throughout the house.  Just tell him what you want, and he'll get it done to your expectations!  Jerry will always be my first call for repairs or upgrades.

Steve was a godsend!  
  
  
  
I had a appointment for the previous day with the installer from Best Buy, who never showed up! With a dinner party planned for the day after my installation apt (with Best Buy) I was completely in a panic! I got Steve's name off Angies list and he was able t come the very next day to install the microwave at 8am! He was prompt, and did a wonderful job and was done in about a hour. I must add he did it for half the cost that the Best Buy installer would charge--and I bet did a much better job!
  
  
  
Thank you Steve! We will definitely be calling again in the future!

We had a busted supply hose to our upstairs toilet which flooded part of our upstairs, and then rained down through the livingroom ceiling.  The ceiling was ruined, with plaster falling.  Jerry came right away to give us an estimate, and while here he mentioned that since the ceiling would be taken down, it would be a good time to install recessed lighting if we wanted to.  He said that if we bought the lights, he would install them for $30.00 per hour.  There was no pressure at all to do it, but we thought it was such a good idea that we decided to go ahead with it.  Jerry stayed in touch, and was able to do the work soon after we approved his estimate.  He spent a day taking down the ceiling and cleaning up the mess.  He put up plastic sheeting as a barrier, so the mess stayed more or less in the livingroom.  He then spent three full days and one half day finishing all his work.  He managed to not damage the crown molding in the process of repairing the ceiling, and he matched the pattern of the textured ceiling to the one in the dining room.   
Jerry is very curteous and trustworthy. He did everything he said he would do, he did it in a timely manner, and he cleaned up very well. He did excellent work on the ceiling, and the insurance adjuster said he thought he did a great job at a reasonable price.

Jerry does high quality work for an excellent price.   He has always exceeded our expectations.  He is definitely the best contractor/handyman in the area and we will be calling on him again soon to help get our house ready for sale.  Thanks Jerry!

   Mr. Jerry M, the owner of Finely Done Handyman Service, Inc. consistently produced outstanding results.  He was very creative and extremely competent in handling each task.  The word, "No," was not part of his vocabulary.   He performed all of the tasks very efficiently with no supervision.  Every task was completed in a timely manner and the results are nothing less than outstanding.  Finely Done Handyman Service, Inc. has earned my highest praise and endorsement.  Mr. Jerry M is a very friendly person and pays attention to the details of each task.  I am very pleased with his work.  His superb service presents a stark contrast to some of the other contractors I made the mistake of dealing with during the course of refurbishing my parents' home.

Jerry responded quickly by e-mail, was out to the house promptly for an estimate, and showed up to do the work when he said.  He gave me status updates daily, and the work was very professional.  I was VERY satisfied with his work.  Highly recommended!

I got an estimate and I was going to use him.  He did one little job for me; but then he didn't show up to do the other job that he was supposed to do.  Obviously, I didn't like it that he didn't show up to do what he was supposed to do.  I thought the portion that he did do cost a lot more than I thought it should cost.
Response from FINELY DONE HANDYMAN SERVICE
"I don't even remember her. Perhaps if she attempted to contact me again, as she had a whole year to do, the situation could have been resolved. Why on earth would anyone wait a year??????? Something doesn't sound right here. Look how many A reports I have here........say no more. Chances are she was being difficult with scheduling or we had a misunderstanding about timing or she wanted exterior work done and waited too long to call someone to do it then the weather turned. Really I have no idea why she wrote this, waited so long to do so, and question her motives."

I only wish there was an A++ rating to give him on all categories. Jerry lives up to his company name "Finely Done"

He gave me a quote in advance, and explained about how long it would take, and how he would have to come on separate days for each application of drywall compound. He cleaned up after each day and made sure I was happy with the results. He was polite and professional.  I would hire him again in the future for the next job.

On time, priced right, high quality workmanship. This man takes pride in his work. I will use his services again and I will recommend him to others.

As promised, very high quality work, respectful and careful of our things, punctual, neat, diligent, hardworking (even in the 100-degree heat), and very accurate. I am probably the fussiest person imaginable with regard to quality, and this job was dicey. It's an old house with uneven studs; walls that needed to be flat for cabinet hanging; and new door jams that needed to line up with the new dry wall. This contractor hit the mark, and I would highly recommend him, and have him back any time.

I found the listing on Angie's list and use e-mail to explain what I needed.  We set up a mutually convenient time for Jerry to come over and get the information to prepare an estimate.  I accepted his estimate and we planned for a day and time to complete the job.  Jerry arrived on time, ready to work.  He laid a drop cloth so he wouldn't track anything into an adjacent bedroom, removed the old insulation, packed it in plastic bags for a neat removal from the house, put up new insulation and showed me the finished work.  It was neatly done  and the only thing I had to do was put the items I had removed from the closet through which the crawl space was accessed.  Great job!  Fair price!  I would definitely call Jerry again for other jobs around this old house!
