Mr. Copple was on site at the designated time and worked very efficiently. There were flowers and shrubs by a couple of the fences that Mr. Copple tied back and covered and he worked carefully around them so the plants were undamaged which kept the unit owners happy. He meticulously cleaned up his work area prior to leaving for the day. The unit owners are very happy with the work that was done and we would highly recommend Mr. Copple (Bert's Handyman Service).

Bert returned my call within a few hours. We scheduled a time for him to come, but when it rained he promptly called and rescheduled. He was on time, professional, polite and had the job completed to my satisfaction.

The ground was so frozen that he couldn't get the post down as far as he wanted so he came back in the spring and anchored it good.

Bert did a great job. He is very polite and conscientious. A couple of the jobs had some unforeseen problems with them, and he handled all of them very well. (He also stuck to his estimate even though he easily could have justified a higher charge given the surprises.) We also had to leave early on the first day of the job when Bert was working on a door adjustment, and at the beginning of the second day, he took some time to explain what he did and why. I asked him to re-frame the door, but it turns out the door wasn't square, so he took a different approach and did a great job laying it all out for me.

Bert was very easy to work with.  The size of the job was a bit large given his current workload, so we worked together to prioritize the work and he has kept up with the plan and schedule.  He has been EXTREMELY easy to work with and has done a great job with the improvement.  He did a great job at keeping the mess to a minimum and cleaning up after himself.

Bert took his time with the job which I very much appreciated.  Bert discussed with me all aspects of the job and if he needed to make a modification in the plan, he would check with me to make sure we were always on the same page.    I value his professionalism and willingness to do a good job.  Some of the work that was already in place made it difficult for Bert to work with, but I know he tried his best to overcome some obstacles and  do a job that his customer would be happy with.

Bert went over and above to do this job.  The opening for the storm was not standard and the sill had to be built up.  The storms were caulked and painted in and extremely difficult to remove.  Many other road blocks came up due to the age of the house.  He met them all and did not quit till he got everything right.  I would recommend his work to anyone looking for a quality worker and person.  I now have him on speed dial.

One of the jobs was a little off with the measuring. He was very polite and prompt, but didn't seem as proficient as other workers I have had.
Response from Bert's Handyman Service
"[member name removed] was very pleasnat to work for. The total cost was $365.00. In addition to the carpentry work done there was approx/ 20LF of wood facia on the front of the garage that I had scrapped, sanded, caulked, primed & painted with Sherwin-Williams coatings. The deck rail caps that she wanted me to try and re-attach were weathered & warped enough that they should have been replaced. So, I did the best I could to pull them back down with exterior decking screws however, with the condition of the wood, there was only so much you could do without the screws pulling through the old wood. The double wooden doors in the basement were very old and sagging so that the doors could no longer be locked & closed properly. These were doors that led to an outdoor entrance. I had to remove the hinges & the one door, cut off approx/ one inch the full length of the door and re-position the hinges in order to have solid wood to secure the hinges. Once this was complete, the door was able to be locked again though my verbal recommendation prior to this repair was to replace both doors with a double set of steel entry doors. The only thing I can re-call that the measuring may have been off on was a flat composite deck board that I had bored (2) holes in for a rope swing in the back yard. My mistake was using the old swing as a template which caused one of the holes to be off center and for that I apologize."
