Gary showed up on time and ready to work. He is experienced and easy to work with. He did a quality job on all projects and the caulking was not easy to get to with the terrain here and even through a sudden cloud burst he finished the job. Would hire him again in future for many of the jobs that are just too big, heavy or complicated.

We used BJs Hubby for Hire Inc. The service with them was very good. They redid a bathroom. The price was pretty reasonable from what I was told by the other people who were in the trade. They have very good cost. His professionalism, plus how well was the time that took him to put in toilet and all, he was very good with that. I think he did a good job but he left some grout on new floor that we just put down in and my wife was not happy all about that. We had mat put down on the floor and the grout does not easily get off of that. I would rate him an 'A' except for the cleaning.

Gary did a great job. He returned my call the day I called, then followed up the night before he was scheduled to do the work to confirm time and address, and reviewed the work we wanted done to make sure he brought all the necessary equipment. Gary arrived on time, introduced himself and then reviewed the various jobs before starting. Originally, we only asked for the fans and doors, but while he was there we found a few other projects and he was happy to help. I would hire Gary again, and would recommend him to others.

The work that they did was fine. I think that the price ended up being higher than what we anticipated on the projects he did.

"I can only give ball park est. by what people tell me over the phone. After I saw what was involved I told customer it was going to be more and at the time they were o.k. with it."

He's really good and he's doing some more work for us again right now. He's very responsive, he listens, and he's very easy to get along with. He does good work. He's also highly skilled in a lot of things and is truly a handyman, but it kind of goes beyond that. He's a very handy guy and his price is reasonable.

Sometimes it is hard to get a hold of Gary and I have to call him a few times before he calls me back or I reach him. Sometimes, he is hard to nail down on which day he can come because if I have an inside job and he also has an outside job he is working on, it will depend on the weather which job he is able to work on. But, he does come the days he says he will come and works all day or until the job is complete. I generally pay him for the day, so I will ask him to do another small project if he finishes my main project before the end of the day.
His work is very good. Occasionally there is something that isn't quite right, but he will fix it if I ask him to. He is very friendly and professional. He is very knowledgeable so when we aren't sure exactly what we want done, we can discuss what we are looking for and he can suggest ways to make it work.
For example, when we wanted to add a door to an odd-sized doorway, my husband had tried to install a folding door and cut down a regular door and neither worked quite right. When Gary came out to look at it, he suggested that a solid door would work best. He also suggested which direction it should open even though I had originally thought I wanted it to open a different way. The finished result was very good and his way worked much better than my way would have. I like that we can trust him to help us get things done right since we are not very experienced at remodeling. We have an older house, so it had a lot of peculiarities we have to work with.

It went well. He gave me suggestions for faucet manufacturers and answered questions before I even hired him.

Went well. One faucet leaked a bit and he came back to fix. Seemed like a reasonable price. Took less than a day to complete. It was done at our home in Gibsonia.

I have a rental property in the Pittsburgh area and live out of town. The tenants had brought to my attention that one of the trees on the property had died. I called Gary and he provided a quick estimate and set a date for the work to be performed. To my surprise, Gary performed the work ahead of schedule. I am satisfied with the work as are my tenants.

Service was excellent. Gary called me right away and we scheduled for him to come out 3 days after calling me. He did a great job, was friendly and professional.

He charged over $1000 for the whole work and he was here a couple of different days. He was a little hard to get because he was busy. If he says he is coming, it might take a while. He is very pleasant to work with. He does what one wants him to do. He is a nice guy. I would use him again in the future.

Like I had mentioned above, he handled a variety of tasks for us, all done professionally. He was also very easy to deal with and gave us a lot of valuable home maintenance advice over the years.

Some work could not be completed because of elderly parents living in home.
Gary will be contacted to finish items on the list.

The faucet and filter replacements went well in the time frame he gave me. He gave some advice over the phone before I even gave him the job about which faucet to buy. He also told me how to fix my bathroom drain myself, as I did not have the part for him to do it.
