We had a great experience from booking the appt to finish. Our handyman was punctual and professional. Gave me a realistic expectation of what could be accomplished in the allotted time frame. We had purchased an Angie's Deal and did not want to go beyond the scope of the deal. The job was very labor intensive and he worked hard and completed the project. He used his resources (other contractors) to come up with the best approach for the task. We will definitely use this company again for future handyman projects.
Description of Work: Patched a home in wall and removed rug pad stuck to concrete floor.

Ed was great! Ed was courteous, prompt, and very hard working. He never took a break or ate lunch.. He was professional and polite. I will definitely use their service again. They were a great company all the around including the people in the office and spoke with.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for $249 for a handyman for a day. Ed worked for seven hours straight. He caulked, hung pictures, painted, fixed curtain rods, and installed new hardware on the bathroom. He also put new hardware on the doors and installed a new front door lock. He fixed a threshold on the front door as well. He did everything I asked him to do.

Tyler was on time to the minute. He's friendly, professional, experienced; doesn't waste time. After he asked me a few questions as to what needed repair, he went right to work. When the work was completed, he vacuumed the dust in the front entry. This is my first experience with Best Austin Handyman. If you're looking for quality work, go to this company. Ask for Tyler!!
Description of Work: sanded and stained lower part of front door (pet scratches!), - looks like new; refit deadbolt on front door so the door is flush and there is no daylight coming through. Filled crack in door, checked threshold and weather stripping around door.

The handyman was right on time and helpful. He did all the jobs quickly. The only problem I had was in scheduling the visit - it took more than one call. The first time no one answered the call. I left a message and it took a while for them to get back to me. BUt I will use the company again - I appreciate a flat fee for work and was grateful that the handyman was flexible and did a lot of small jobs.
Description of Work: I had an Angies List coupon for $88 for 2 hours of Handyman services. I made a list of small jobs around the house - repairing drawers and closets that had come off their runners, repairing a light fixture falling out of the ceiling, repairing a dysfunctional rain barrel, etc.

I had a great experience with BAH. They were one of two contractors I considered for the remodel. Their price was literally half what a competitor's estimate came in as. The project manager (Jonathan) was amazing and was always eager to help us. When we were picking out bathroom vents and light fixtures, he let us know about cool, new technology that neither my husband nor I had heard of, that will ultimately save us money in the long run. If there was a problem, he would talk me through the problem so I always had the best information before I made a decision. The workers were always professional and prompt. Their quality of workmanship was usually very good. If we ever saw something that needed to be corrected, we just had to point it out and they would fix it immediately Since the project is complete, we've noticed a few items that needed to be fixed. I sent BAH a list and they had someone out a few days later to fix everything. I've dealt with other contractors on past projects and was always impressed by the level of professionalism with BAH. They issues a line item estimate where everything was explicitly spelled out. When it came to settling up receipts at the end of the project, I checked everything, item for item, and was impressed by their level of integrity, they only charged me for the things that were legitimately not covered in the contract. I am using them again for a guest bath remodel and have recommended them to several other friends doing renovation projects.
Description of Work: BAH completely demoed our master suite, including the bedroom, a hallway, 2 closets and the master bath. They worked with me and my architects plans to re-frame and sheet-rocked the area to make the flow of the rooms better, and separated the space to add a bonus room. In the larger master closet space, the put in electrical, water lines and duct work so we could put the washer and dryer into the master suite. They handled all aspects of the remodel including the electrical work (moving a subpanel, installing new switches, outlets, fixtures, etc), plumbing (adding the water for the washer and dryer), drywall (hanging, taping, texturing, etc). In the master bath, they tore our an old shower, fixed plumbing problems with the shower, re-sculpted the surface with concrete to fix drainage problems, applied the waterproof membrane, tiled, grouted, and sealed all the tile. They also installed a floating engineered hardwood flooring and baseboards.

The service provider called my home at 8:30 pm to ask what I needed done. Someone else from this organization called me previously, the 8:30 PM call was from someone named Joshua. The previous caller who asked the same questions was Charles. I explained in detail what I needed, was told no problem we will get it done. When Charles arrived today at the appointed time, he took one look and told me it would be an additional $90.00 to put in that post, and there were additional charges but I did not listen further, just told him I was cancelling this service. Very unprofessional organization, for two different employees to call and ask what I wanted done, and to indicate they could do it, without stating there might be additional costs, and the fact that one called at 8:30 at night, should have been a wake-up call for me, but I trusted their integrity, which was obviously a mistake.

This is wholly inaccurate. The coupon this customer purchased does not include the replacement of posts but only the adjustment for up to two gates. We have no problem discounting our services to earn new customers and build trust but we can't give our services away for free. This customer wanted a discount on top of a discount and we couldn't accommodate her. We recommend Craig's List or a day labor company if you're looking for the cheapest deal in town.

He came out and spent some time with us, but it was not worth it to us due to what we wanted to do. We had good interaction with him, but the work he wanted to do was feasible. There was no follow up plans from this company for a bathroom design either.

There were some extra charges on top of the big deal because I had a lot of work done. They were quick in finishing the work and they had to come back and redo the back door of the patio since it was not done right. It did not hang right or something so they sent a different person to do that.

The handyman stated that we didn't have all the materials he liked. He went to the store and bought what he needed, including a large container of tape. I purchased this special offer from the company to help get some items off my husbands to do list. This ended up taking more time. Plus the handyman left with the large roll of tape we paid for and he used very little. We called the office and were told we would be reimbursed and a check would be sent. Still have not seen the check and my husband had to redo the work they did. Very sorry I purchased this gift for my husband.

Unfortunately we were unable to install the shelf above the desk because it was too large for one person to install. The homeowner opted not to spend the money for another handyman, and there was no one at the home willing or able to help. The gap in the cabinet was a result of modifying a cabinet that we recommended not be modified due to structural integrity. We stand behind our work and in this case we have fulfilled that obligation
