He did wonderful work. He forget his plumbers kit at home, and when he went home, he stopped at Lowes and got a light bulb for the ceiling fan that he put in, because it took one of the little light bulb. He was a nice man. I don't want anyone to know about him because I want him to be there the next time I need him. He came out and looked at me and gave me a price before he started work.
Description of Work: I use Mr. Fix It. He changed out a faucet for for me, he put in a ceiling fan, he put a new stairway to the attic, he put together a TV stand and other small jobs.

John Cook provided a very economical quote and fast start date. The work and cleanup was accomplished in less then half a day. The moved fence was a fixed to the existing side fence/post. All work was accomplished in a professional manner. We were so impressed by his work that we asked for a quote to install crown molding and paint the interior of our house which he subsequently accomplished for us. He is highly recommended.

We were all ready familiar with John Cook's work since he moved 32 feet of our front fence and gate back. We ask John to provide a quote for the installation of crown molding throughout the house (excluding the bathrooms and kitchen) and painting the interior of the house excluding the bathrooms. We accepted his quote, picked out the various paint colors and crown molding. Work began on 4/15/2013 and was completed on 5/1/2013. John was able to work around my schedule. He arrived early each morning. He initially repaired all cracks and installed the crown molding, then caulked and painted the crown molding. He caulked all nail holes and painted the walls, trim, doors and railing. Most of the rooms required two coats of paint. His work was accomplished in a very professional manner and turned out beautifully giving the interior an entirely new look. We highly recommend John Cook and will use him again in the future for all out handyman repairs that are needed.

John was prompt, punctual and polite in coming to my home and providing a bid. His price seemed reasonable, too, for the work to be done, which included separate bath and dressing areas and the front door. When he did the work, he did an excellent job of removing and replacing towel racks and other small fixtures instead of trying to paint around them, which I've actually had painters do. He also repaired a cabinet door and replaced a piece of wood on the vanity. The bathroom painting was adequate, but I've had to do some touch-up. The front door looks fine.
Description of Work: I needed someone to paint my front door and bathroom and to do two small repairs on my bathroom vanity.

John is a very busy man and since my work wasn't an emergency, I agreed to have him schedule me in during the following week. John was very punctual, quick and professional. He completed all work to my satisfaction. I also had him submit a proposal for some remodeling I am considering in the future.

Top notch service, cost, and professionalism! This one reference/job more than justifies my Angie's List subscription.
Description of Work: First thing you should know is that John's very responsive and he will get back to you in a timely manner. On top of that his prices are very reasonable (best we'd seen after searching several other service sites). The thing with John is he is very honest. If he can fix it, he will. If he can't, he'll let you know. We had him install a new shower head and ceiling fans (We were also planning to have him install a new storm door in the front but were unable to get the door in time). So he ended up just charging $40 per ceiling fan, and replaced the shower head for free. Great job, work done quickly and professionally. We'll definitely be using John in the future.

I sent an email as well as left a phone message stating what I needed. Mr. Cook called me back promptly on Friday and stated that he would be out Sat. morning. He came and said the total cost of materials and labor would be right around $100 but he would run over to Lowe's to check out prices and would call me from there with an exact estimate which he did. He quoted a price of $110 and said he would be out Mon. pm to complete the job. He came out Mon. pm after the rain cleared up and removed the old post and installed the new post and mailbox. I was very pleased with the job he did. Mr. Cook was very pleasant and professional. I would definitely call him again and would recommend him.

See my above description. All went well from start to finish.
Description of Work: My husband and I were extremely pleased with Mr. Fixit's work. He was very punctual in coming out to look at the doors we needed adjusted and giving us a very reasonable estimate. There were 4 doors that needed to be adjusted as they wouldn't close properly due to shifts caused by the weather and soil conditions. One door led from the house to the garage and 3 doors were in the garage leading to utility and storage closets.Mr Fixit worked on the doors to make them close properly and painted one side of each door. He took a piece of old paint from one of the doors and matched it very well.I would highly recommend the work of Mr. Fix It's. He is prompt, does a good job and his price is reasonable.

I've had an electrician out to fix the doorbell and he fixed it temporarily but it broke again. Then Mr. Cook came out and fixed it and it's stayed fixed. He had to purchase the proper type of doorbell so that we wouldn't continue to have the problem. He's very reasonable. He doesn't charge hourly rate generally but charges by the project. He is very fair in his pricing. He's on time and will be here when he says he will be here. He carries a lot of spare parts so he's able to do the work. He's also willing to go needed sources if he does need a part before or during the job. He's really good at translating and communicating what I'm telling him. He understands the lingo that the homeowner is trying to say which I really appreciate. He talks to you, listens, and tries to understand what you say and tries to stick to his estimate. He understands people are on a budget and he will try to give a phone estimate.
Description of Work: He came in because I was having problems with my doorbell which would stick and caused it to continue to send the electrical impulse. When people rang the doorbell it would fry the electrical system in my attic. He also fixed my toilets which was sluggish because of poor quality mechanisms in the toilet. I had him fixed six cabinet doors for me also.

He was fabulous. He was just great. He was professional when he came out to do. He e-mailed me the estimate properly, so it was very complete. He scheduled the work in that every appointment time that he said he would be out there to work. He had all his materials and tools. He was just very professional and very confident. I needed that kind of work done again and this will be my first choice.

Outstanding service at a great price for everyone.
Description of Work: John was excellent. He arrived on time and completed all the work in an outstanding manner. I had him install a new front door and 2 ceiling fans. He worked to make sure that the door was functioning in the prpoper manner and adjusted the ceiling fans to ensure that they ran smoothly. I will definitely call John for further repairs or renovations. I would highly recomend him to everyone on Angies List. I have already recommended him to family members.
Actually, we have been using this service for abut 2 years, having replaced our prior "handyman". Carlos helps us with 54 apartment units, and the tenants always need something. He responds quickly, has been able to help with everything including roof leaks, problem tenants, paint, repairs, plumbing, HVAC. He is licensed in several areas. I could a bit better on pricing, but it is often worth the little extra to get a reliable job done, we will continue to use him for small and big projects.
Description of Work: Paint, Tile, Plumbing, Roofing, Electrical, Construction - just about everything.
You would not know anything was ever wrong. He repaired the ceiling and everything looks great now. He always called back promptly. I would highly recommend him. His price was very reasonable.
Description of Work: The roofers forgot to put the right flashing next a vent so there would always be a small leak. They came in and fixed everything quickly.

John Cook of Mr. Fixit was just wonderful. I finally got fed up with several minor household issues and found John on Angies List. I contacted him on Monday and he said he would be over on Wednesday at 4:00 and he was punctual. He was not only capable, but also very pleasant. I pointed out all my nagging issues and he quoted me $65 and I agreed. He probably had everything done in not much more than an hour. I even took him to my neighbor's house and he will be going back there tomorrow to repair a minor fence problem. He was certainly reasonable and I will most definitely call him in the future.

I called Mr.Fix-It and he came at the time we agreed on. He measured the door and he gave me an estimate. He would have to order a door built for the atrium door. He instructed me how to select a front-door at Home Depot and have it ready for him to pick up.When he got the atrium door he called me and we set a time for the work. He came and efficiently installed the doors and painted the atrium door to match. He hauled away the old doors. I don't remember how much I paid him, but I was well satisfied with the cost.
Description of Work: Mr. Cook had to order a section of an atrium door made to replace it. He also picked up a pre-hung frontdoor at Home Depot and installed it. The atrum door looked like new and the front door exceeded my expectation. He hauled away the old doors. I had a pool table lamp to be installed, but he declined to do it because he said he does not do electrical work.
