Deck or Porch - Repair - For Business
I hired James to paint my front porch deck and rear deck we agreed upon a price for the total job. He came Friday to see the job and get an idea. I gave him $250 to get paint and materials. I assumed he would be over in the morning to start 10am came around I called him he said hes on his way he didnt go to bed til 5am because he was out drinking. Seems very unprofessional to me! He finally gets there at 12:30pm he shows up with a can of paint and waterproofing which he never showed me which color he purchased so as soon as he started painting I didnt like the color and told him to stop! The whole expirence was terrible and the worst part is took the paint and never gave me my money back. The man straight robbed me in my opinion. I would never recommend nor hire him ever again!

Jamie is a hardworking professional! I had a multitude of projects I needed done - I reviewed everything with Jamie and ran out to work. I was hoping heâ d get through half of my list by the time I got back. He shocked me and had completed EVERYTHING!! He assembled furniture, replaced ceiling fans, re-grouted my shower, replaced light switches, hung mirrors, etc. A+ Service!!

James is delightful, and a highly creative craftsman. He had the brilliant notion of turning our beat-up old cabinet drawers backwards and refacing them -- something that NEVER would have occurred to us. He had other innovative remodeling ideas as well, and saved us a lot of money on redoing our bathroom. Highly recommend!

He came when he said he would. The work was done in an evening. The deck looks great. We are very pleased.

James was very responsive and very flexible with several schedule changes on my end. He came out once to assess the issue and over the course of two days to fix it, addressing concerns as they came up. I'm very grateful.

James responded immediately to my request on Angie's list. I could not be happier for giving him the job, I like to hire local business owners over corporate owned companies. James was awesome, communication was open and responsive. I can not say nice enough things about him. I will be using him again, most definitely!!

James fixed and installed my single French door.. He had to adjust my door jam add hinges and also add a piece of wood he even painted. It fits perfect and looks beautiful. James is a very hard worker and is equipped with a variety of skills and talents, I am planning on hiring him again soon.

Friendly and on time. Would have been great if he closed the hatch door to the attic. That?s a small thing.

Jamie repaired a door frame, re-installed a storm door, installed a new threshold, and customized a sliding screen door. -- all quality and timely work. Pro-actively and clearly communicated from start to finish so met expectations with no surprises. Smart, diligent, efficient, practical, knows what he's doing. Good value for the money. I highly recommend Jamie and will ask him back.

Jamie did a great job replacing our shutters. He was here within just a few days of first contact. Did a professional job and was very friendly and courteous. Would definitely hire him again for other services.

They were on time, clean, and genuine on everything from my initial conversation through the final completion. Was not the least expensive option I had for this project but I've learned my lesson on the "cheapest" option. Highly recommend at least an opportunity to earn your business.

He is dependable, very polite, and response time is very fast. I hired him to assemble an entertainment center w fireplace insert and also a large, industrial shelving unit. He did a great job on both and arrived when he said he would.

James did a great job replacing my ceiling and the drywalls. Also did a great job on painting. Also, unlike a lot of handymen, he showed up when he was supposed to AND on time! Would definitely recommend James to everyone.

Had him install 8 interior doors from your average swing door to sliding door on closets. Everyone one of them opens and closes perfectly and is balanced properly to not swing one way or the other on there own weight. Left the place cleaner than when he came. And made sure not to damage anything else that would cause more repairs and rack up cost. I highly recommend this company
