Reliable Handyman Services Inc

The mounting was crooked and took an excessive amount of time.  He then gave me his private business card if I was interested in additional work, bad quality control.

The guy was amazing.  He arrived on time completed all tasks that we asked of him.  He even explained what he was doing and why.  I am so glad to have found these guys.

While the service was performed, the provider connected the thermostat incorrectly which shorted out my entire heating system and almost caused an electric fire.  I had to spend 4x what I paid "Reliable Handyman" to fix the problem.  I have tried to contact him several times and have heard nothing.  This was a scary event and could have been much worse.  I do not recommend anyone use them.

Very Professional. Replace toilet seat. The price was reasonable

Had Ian come back today to do more work.  I got the handyman special $119 for three hours. Ian never stopped till the work was complete.  He did more than most people could squeeze into a three hour period. He totally cleaned up any mess that was made. I am very pleased with this service. Professional, thorough, quick to respond and reasonably priced.

Ian arrived on time was very professional

 and courteous. He did the best job ever.     I will ask for him when I need services again.  Office was very prompt to respond and schedule appointment.

Provider put together a stationary excercise bike incorrectly- it took him 3 hrs. I had to take it apart to return bike to vendor and the person taking it apart, found the critical mistake. It took him 1.5 hours to take it apart and put a new bike together. He did a great job on hanging a flat screen wall device. He was asked to do more work and never showed again after coming for about an hour. He never returned calls after that. Although price was good; quality of work completed and time taken to perform work was not reasonable.  The failure to return to complete the job after numerous I'll be there's was unacceptable.  The person who came was a sub contractor to Reliable.  Not sure if he is still with them.

I bought an Angie's deal of 3 hours of handyman work for $119.  I had plumbing and electric work fixing leaky faucets and a sink leak. Plus I needed to replace a timer and a dimmer switch.  I called them the next day after I bought the deal and arranged the time for the service call. They explained that because the nature of the work they would send a plumber and an electrician separately to do the work.  The plumber showed up first within the 2 hour service window time. He proceeded to identify the problem with the leaking sink and repaired that first within half an hour. Then he fixed the leaking shower faucets and adjusted the flow. He left promptly after making sure there where no other issues I needed him for.
Then I waited for the electrician who showed up about an hour later. He had no problem fixing the dimmer switch and then proceeded to replace the timer and install the new outdoor light fixture.  Well he had more trouble than he anticipated. The first timer he installed, a digital one he went out and bought seemed to work fine until he left.  Once he left the light wouldn't stay on and it did not respond to any setting I tried according to the instructions. I called back the same afternoon and they agreed to send the guy back next day. However the wanted to charge me regular price for a service call.  They would not accept that the installation wasn't done properly and that it should be covered by the original 3 hour purchase.  Eventually I had to buy another 3 hour deal from them.  The electrician came back next day around 9:30 and after spending an hour trying to figure it out he gave up. He eventually went out and came back with a less fancy cheaper timer that he was able to get to work.
Overall the plumbing services were better although there is an issue with the shower faucets again loosing pressure. The electrician was less skilled and I do not know to this day (nor did he then) why the first timer failed to work.  And I was not happy having to buy a second deal for them to fix something that wasn't properly installed from the beginning. I understand they use various personnel to do these jobs so maybe I got the less skilled electrician. I'm giving them a B in price and quality because I should not have had to buy that second deal and I was not fully satisfied with the timer installation problems.

This was great deal for the work I needed to get done. When he arrived I gave him a list of things that I needed done. He was very polite and he started working immediately on the list.. He was very polite and professional.  After he finished the work, he allowed me to inspect.,  I was very pleased with his work and I would definitely have him work for me again,

I had previously had RHS install closet doors in one of my bedrooms. This service went very well, so I figured I would give them a try for work I needed done to my Sunroom. Well...that was a big mistake.
Initially, the work was to take 2 days to pain the interior and exterior of the Sunroom and replace the screens. After the first day, which I took off of work to supervise, the painting was nowhere near done. Not only not done, but sloppily done with no primer. After the second day, still the work was not complete. The painting was "done," bu certainly not at all what I would call done well.
After the third day, the screens were in, but the spines were all hanging out and every screen was loose. By the morning, they all fell out. The team did not buy the right materials for the job. That week, my family and I went on vacation. I told RHS to feel free to finsih the job when I was away. When I go back a week later...you guessed it, the screens were in, but they were all loose and the spines were being held in with glue...GLUE!!!!!
After several more attempt and many email and phone conversations with a less-than-interested manager, the screens are in and sturdy. However, they are not perfect...which is what I expect for nearly $1,000.
On top of all of this, after the first attempt, I had asked RHS not to cash my check until the work was done. And, despite my plea, they went ahead and cashed it. So, I spent several weeks in limbo not knowing if I was going to get my money back if they couldn't finish the job.
I WILL NEVER USE THIS VENDOR AGAIN...EVER!!

It went great.  And we went over a few other things for future consideration.

Their work turned out good. I still need to connect with them for something that we didn't get to finish but I just hadn't reach out to them. There seems to be a little bit of a confusion about the deal that I bought because he got to outsource his handyman I guess, but other than that, the work that I requested did get done overall so I was pretty happy with it. The problem that came up as they were doing that is they switch the lights off and on and I had some outlets that blew out because of that. The guy that was supposed to fix that, I hadn't connected back with them to actually come back and do it because I've been so busy. I fixed a couple of them myself just for it to get it done and scheduling is problem because I live in Philadelphia but I work in New York so I just did it myself. It seems like some of his handyman are very knowledgeable and they got the job done. The person I got even though he worked on my shelves just wasn't a primary electrician, he just knew other things so people should be very specific about what their needs are so they could assign the right handyman.

He did a great job. I was impressed with the work.

I had to buy all the parts myself, but they did a pretty good job.

They were on time and very professional. They did everything very good.

Job was done well, no complaints 

The handyman was prompt and courteous. All work  areas were cleaned after job  was completed.

It went well.

It went very well.

Although the work wasn't of the best quality it was acceptable.  The main problem is that despite numerous email and phone conversations, it was not mentioned to me until 30 minutes before the first appointment that I was responsible for picking up the supplies - note, I was never told what supplies were needed!  (ie., how much paint, what type of caulk,, etc).  This meant having to reschedule around my already busy schedule.  Once the supply issue was sorted the work was completed in an acceptable manner.

Eric arrived on time , he was very polite and went right to work.  He cleaned the gutters and removed drapes at my brother's and then drove to my house to complete the other jobs.  Every job he did was done perfectly.  He cleaned up after each job.  Glad I found Reliable Handyman and Eric. 

Their service turned out great!  I would absolutely use them again in the future!

I did have to keep calling over again to schedule an appointment. Apparently, someone within the business had a lot of personable problems. I finally was able to have someone to come out to do the work. When he came out, he said that one of my projects would require more work and I could schedule to have him come back out. He explained that it could take about four more hours and there would be additional costs. He did do a good job at installing a window box for me. He was certainly pleasant and competent. However, I did not call them back for additional work.

The first techinician did not show up so the owner came out to do the work.  He removed the entire slding glass door to fully diagnose the needed repair.  Once it was discovered that it was going to be a simple fix, he went to get the replacement wood, came back and promptly installed it, then the door.  Other companies I spoke with wanted to sell me an new sliding glass door, sight unseen.  Working with Reliable saved me a lot of money.
