Jess came over the day I called him and went to work immediately to caulk the flashing and temporarily reattach the rain gutter until he could come back and replace some rotten fascia and attach the gutter. We had some very heavy rain forecast and his temporary fix prevented more damage. He managed to come back a few days later, after the rain, and completed the job. He also cleaned the gutters.

Fabulously. This man knows what he is doing and he takes pride in his work. Fair, reliable and conscientious. I will never use anyone else to work on my home if he is up to the job at hand

Went extremely well. Jess took the time to research the best way to repair the expansion joint crack. All work looked very well done. I'll definitely hire him again for some future projects I have planned(decks and patio)

It went excellent! Jess did a superb job & I would definitely recommend him. I will use him again myself if needed. I had already gotten one estimate. He did an awesome job & saved me $300.00. VERY trustworthy! This is the one you want! My bath looks like a new one. He went above what was needed. I really appreciate his promptness also. I only have the one bath.

Jess was a real life-saver. An area of the ceiling in our new home collapsed less than a week before we were scheduled to move in. Jess just happened to be available and immediately came out and started work putting up the new sheetrock. The work was completed quickly and affordably. We would definitely recommend him.

Fantastic!!! Unlike most handymen I have dealt with in the past, Jess returned my call the same day, followed up with me before the scheduled days of work, showed up on those days at exactly the time he said he would, and did outstanding work. Although he stays very busy, he always finds a way to work in new jobs. And although my jobs weren't significant in terms of cost, he treated the work as though it was the most important work he was doing at the time. He performed this work at a rental house I own in Oak Ridge, but I have been so pleased that I intend to use him for new work at my current home in Knoxville. I highly recommend Jess!!!

I called Jess after learning from two other handyman and/or roofing repair services (both highly-rated by Angie's List) that it would be at least $150-$250 and two weeks for them to get to me. Jess was on another job, but was at a stopping point. He went to his shop, picked up a ladder and went by my house to see what it would take to fix the ridge vent on my roof. When my son and I got home, he wanted to see the hole in the roof so I took him out back and to our surprise, Jess had already been there and repaired the problem and another small problem he noted while he was up there. Same-day service and at a fraction of what two of the larger services would have charged just for the service call. I have already lined up more work for him for myself and a friend! Highest possible ratings and many thanks!

Jess was great. He came over and upon inspection of trim he determined all the trim on the window should be replaced(just to be on the safe side) rather than just the water damaged area. He was thorough, punctual and clean! In a few short hours he accomplished what would've taken me several weekends. I would hire him again in a second.

Great! Any other handyman would have likely had me buy a new door, but Jess was able to repair. He is knowledgeable and reliable.

Jess is extremely punctual and is paid hourly and earns every penny. He is friendly and professional and willing to go the extra mile. When I asked Jess to do the above job, I needed it before Thanksgiving and he was able to accommodate me.He shares valuable tips about other things that might be helpful to the home owner in the future which I think is quite remarkable. I am very comfortable having Jess work in my home and plan to hire him again for another project in the near future, as soon as I get through the expense of Christmas.
