He also tried different panels above the heater where the ceiling was cracking in the garage until he got it right.
His price for all the tedious labor was quite reasonable.
"It make to tough to complain to the teacher about your grade, but in this case I must. The work was a complicated repair to a sophisticated kitchen cabinet hinge. We were faced with failed previous attempts at repairs. This was not an ordinary hinge but an “overlay” hinge that had broken and the manufacturer of the hinge no longer exists. He was faced with either living with a gaping hole in his otherwise impeccable kitchen or spending $10,000 to replace all of the cabinets. There are no “how to” instructions for this kind of work, it simply takes advanced cabinet and furniture making experience to understand how to make this repair, make it strong enough to stand up to ordinary use and to make it align perfectly on all three axises to match the rest of the cabinet doors. The replacement hinges (we had to replace both) did not fit exactly, We had to construct custom pegs to fill the former screw holes because wood putty in the old hinge holes would not be strong enough. .I had to drive 30 miles twice to use a special tool (a drill press) to insure the pegs were glued in straight and the hinge would stay attached and aligned perfectly. The customer was concerned this repair took a few weeks to complete. But he didn't complain when he was billed for 1 ½ hours for 5 plus hours of work,it took nor that I had inadvertently overlooked billing hm for the ceiling repairs. I am at a complete loss why he felt this work and the result was merely worthy of a "B""
The work took more time than planned. But that was mainly due to weather (the window couldn't be removed and brick work done in rain storms), holidays and one irresponsible sub-contractor.
Robert kept the project going throughout. He was flexible and found ways to change the sequence of work to fit available skills.
He also communicated frequently and I always knew what to expect.
I have been a professional project manager for computer systems for many years and Robert's Project Management skills are excellent.
He did an excellent job of listening to our needs, and then coming up with an appropriate design. The construction is first rate, and the final result is honestly far nicer than what we had planned (and our neighbors agree). He built the railing and pergola out of architectural cedar, which is really quite stunning. Highly recommended, and we will be using Robert for future projects.
He was very friendly and nice. There was no problem with availability and he was very kind. The only problem was he couldn?t complete the job and I had someone else complete it. I liked his services and will use the same in future.
"We clearly enjoyed working for this customer - her daughter became my surrogate grand daughter (my real ones live 300 miles away). What was not noted is as a result of the work we did, and that of others, this locally historically significant house was awarded a special Home Improvement award by the City for transforming this property from mundane to exemplary."
"I believe time has been kind to this great customer's recollection of what was done. He neglected to recall the other tasks we performed that added up to the sum billed Our pricing practice on misc. Handyman tasks is a simple - time & materials. The math is computed on the spot, so there are no surprises. I'm am upset he chose to wait four months to express dissatisfaction with the price."
