My main concern about the work wasn't about what happened on sight. I do have some serious concerns about Angies List, and their involvement in advertising for this work.
Angies List advertised with a "specially-priced" coupon: $225 value: $111 for 2 Man Hours of Handyman Service!
And made it appear as if it was a half price deal. But it wasn't. Conrad actually charges LESS than $111 for this work. A LOT LESS. But I had already prepaid, so I was stuck with being overcharged.
When I asked Conrad about this, he said that the extra charge to ME was for Angie's Advertising! And I really did not think I should be paying EXTRA for something that Conrad would have charged less for, without ANGIE'S " Help"
SO WATCH OUT FOR THESE PREPAID "DEALS" that Angies List is starting to offer. In this case, I would consider this "Deal" Fraudulent. Call the company before you prepay, and find out what they USUALLY charge. I would have done much better if I had done that, rather than prepay through AngiesList.
"We came to the customer's home with myself and (two) other workers, one a woman. Apparently, the woman worker was not counted. Our 240lb male worker is a very fit Latino who enjoys lifting ladders and could not have been aided in its movement of it. The ladder was transferred vertically, not horizontally. He went around the house two times and was "all smiles and courtesy" My best "help" to him is to communicate with him and pay him well. I was not idle during the light bulb changing process but busy directing the customer's instructions to the crew and estimating 4 additional subsequent projects. We (3) spent a total of 1.5 hours working giving more than the expected amount of time. Angies list is NOT Fraudulent but rather honest in its dealings with me and the others I have spoken with."
"Thank you.. God bless you. :)"
It went beautifully. Conrad arrived on time and left a little over an hour later. I had ordered 2 light fixtures online and we unpackaged them. He checked the instructions and installed them. After the first one was installed, I asked that the lamp shades be aimed down instead of up; he changed it and installed the second fixture, cleaned up after himself, offered to take the packaging, which was quite large, with him, we talked about my bathroom remodel, he said he'd like to bid on it. We discussed what I needed, he took notes, we reviewed the job, and I received a bid from him later in the week. He worked quickly and was friendly to my little dog.
I'll use his services again in the future and will refer my friends to him should they ask if I know a handyman."Thanks you.. God bless you more. :)"
"Thanks. God bless you and keep you.:)"
"Thank you. God bless you."
"Thank you..Nice working with you.. God bless you and keep you..:)"
