Joe did a great job. - He was professional, he did what he said he would do. - He showed up on time. - Cleaned up after himself. - Went above the call by doing more than he estimated. - He was a good communicator and an overall really nice guy. We will certainly use him again and would highly recommend him.

The service was an A. I tried but they didn't return my calls. I have been trying to get in touch with them for three weeks. The first job they did for me was excellent although it did take a while to get here. The work performed was excellent but their ability to respond was an F.

He came out to evaluate the repairs and took measurements; but I did not hear from him after that. I contacted him. His last reply on the 20th of March was that he had not been able to find that material and that he may have to use an alternative product. I have not heard from him for two months.

First off, Joe is a great guy--kind, friendly, skillful, resourceful, and eager to be helpful. Joe answered the phone himself when I first contacted him. He was prompt in coming to see what had to be done, and equally prompt in e-mailing a detailed estimate. The estimate was itemized to give us the option of choosing specific services--although we kept everything on our list. When the job was scheduled, Joe and his crew arrived promptly, worked hard, and got the whole list done in the time frame that he had estimated. We are very pleased with the quality of the work, and the ease of working with Joe. The repairs were done in order to get our house market-ready. In the course of showing the house, additional issues came to light. I called Joe to return two more times. Each time, he recognized that the repairs were time-sensitive and worked us into our schedule, again with great results.
Description of Work
Joe and his crew painted a large number of inside doors, replaced the ballast and bulb in a fluorescent light, stripped wallpaper and repainted a bathroom, taped ceiling cracks and repainted as needed, repaired some drywall tape, painted and replaced hardware on a vanity, removed old insulation from a fireplace, did some pressure washing, and pressure washed, sealed, and stained a deck, pressure washed and painted garage walls, replaced exposed closet light bulbs and installed heat/air registers, and repaired a closet door.

Joe was on time (8:00 a.m.) and very pleasant. He had estimated a price of $280 unless additional parts were needed; none were, and so his bid was, literally, right on the money. The job took about two and a half hours, and he cleaned up after himself so well that there was no evidence anyone had been working in the kitchen. He also took the empty cartons, old disposal and faucet with him. We'd definitely use him again.
Description of Work
Replaced the kitchen faucet and sprayer and replaced the garbage disposal. We had already purchased the parts.

We had recently purchased a home in Nashville. The former owners had never installed a shower door on the shower stall in the master bathroom, using a curtain shower. Joe arrived promptly on the day we had agreed, efficiently installed the shower door - cleaning up afterwards - and for the agreed price. He is professional, nice, and a gentlemen. I have asked for a quote for additional work that needs to be done, based on the inspection of the home.

Nate was so nice and professional. Of the list I gave him, he provided me with itemized quotes and for the work he wasn't able to do he let me know. He and his guy worked efficiently and did a fantastic job. I have called them again since my initial interaction with them and I will continue to do so. They are prompt, professional, reasonably priced and have been life savers for me. I can't thank Nate and his folks enough for all their help! It is so nice to know I found someone I can trust to call. THANK YOU!

Nate and his folks moved furniture, patched a hole in the wall, painted our master bedroom, put a table and chairs together, and hung a new ceiling fan.

Nate did the best work of any person I've hired for anything in Nashville for the past 6 years. He was polite, kept everything clean somehow despite all the sanding etc., punctual, no stories, no fussing, no problems. He did a very thorough job, with a decent number of visits, and did everything properly. He primed before painting, and both walls look like new now. Couldn't recommend Nate more highly!!!! Thanks Nate. J.W.
Description of Work
I had two plaster holes to repair, from plumbing work. Nate needed to build a support for the new 3 sq ft of wall, drywall, and plaster, then sand and plaster a few times, and then prime and paint. The other hole was smaller.

We needed floor decking added in our unfinished attic so we could use it for storage. I wanted to find someone who did a lot of storage-related projects because we have other improvements planned to our closet spaces, and this company came up in a web search, and I saw they had good reviews in Angie's List. Our immediate priority was the attic, since we had removed everything from it for an insulation job and we needed to store the removed items again. Nate came out, did measurements, and explained their approach. He recommended leaving some areas open where there were recessed lighting fixtures, and said they could draw template markings on the decking installed elsewhere over important cables. I didn't really shop around for a provider for this job; we just wanted to get it done and were confident in the Angie's List reviews. The estimate was a little higher than I expected but not outrageous, so I accepted it and we set a date for the work. I called on the day before just to confirm the date, and it's a good thing I did because they had neglected to put it on their calendar, and the job had to be delayed by a day. The work all got done in one day, as expected, and resulted in a large, tidy storage space, much better than it had been before the insulation job. It was quality work, and we are satisfied. We expect to call them back for our closet projects when we are ready to tackle them.

Service Provider Response

For this customer we completed significant wood rot repair on window sills and the garage door framing. The scope of work never included the caulking and painting around the windows and this was indicated in our quote. While completing the rot repairs we did additional repairs to the wall framing that we never charged for. Due to the fact that we completed the work as proposed, plus additional repairs at no cost, we were not prepared to paint the customer's windows for free. The grade we received is unfair and absurd.

I had purchased the door and casing - and was gonna try to do it, myself - but decided to call Joe Kutsko to see if he could do it, instead. He agreed, sent me a quote and performed the service, exceptionally, within only a couple days notice!! Great folks, great work!! This is our second engagement with Fixin' To Repair, Inc. and I'm sure I'll use them, again!!

This customer flips homes for a living and asked us to correct a number of items on a home inspection report for a home he was rehabbing. We did what he asked based on our interpretation of his scope of work. After completing the work on the quote he approved, we sent him an invoice. He sent a check for the full amount with a snarky note on a copy of the invoice about how he "expected more from us", we didn't do a good job and that we didn't correct the entire issue. We believe in exceeding customer's expectation. We always follow up when we find out a customer is unhappy (directly or indirectly). When we contacted him to clarify what his expectations were, we explained what else could be done (which we were prepared to do) and he claimed he already took care of the issue. That was the last we heard from him until we received a review notification from Angie's List. One can see from all of our excellent reviews that we do the job right and, if follow-up is required, we work hard to see that the customer is pleased. That is all that any good company can do.
