Jon did a superb, workmanlike job in an amazingly efficient, economical manner. So much so that I sent him to my daughter’s house—same thing there. I suddenly feel way better about homeownership! And he’s a nice man, very accommodating. Can’t say enough good things!
Description of Work
I had a long list of household improvement and repair items, like fixing doors that would no longer close, putting up a broom rack in a tricky spot, caulking the spot where the gas and water pipes enter the house, etcetera.

Excellent working with John. We negotiated a timeliness for the repairs, agreed on cost, and kept in contact via text messages. He started work on time, let me know when a minor delay occurred matching paint color, and finished the job the same day as started. The work was well done and was 100% what was needed, with no up-selling. I would definitely hire John again and put his business card on my fridge JIC the need comes up!

I had a mold issue in my basement of my rental property and the company we used to remediate did not restore the 10’x4’ hole they left in my wall when they were done. It was outside their scope of service. I called several contractors who quoted as high as $5000 to repair the wall and some who flat out said the job was too small and would not do it. I called Mr. Evans and he graciously worked with me to find a solution to repair the wall and charged a very reasonable amount for the work. He pointed out that the original drywall was directly attached to the cinder block basement wall and suggested it be framed properly to allow moisture to dissipate. He framed out, replaced the drywall, and repainted the entire wall to match. You couldn’t even tell the difference and I had a nice little shelf wall afterwards. I also had him fix a ceiling fan that wasn’t working. He found it was a fan switch issue and was a small part easily replaced. He saved me from having the whole fan replaced! Mr. Evans is honest, reliable, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. I highly recommend him and will definitely keep his number handy.

John is fantastic - I cannot recommend him enough. He did some drywall work for me back in December 2016 (I forgot to post a review for that - but the project went very well), and he was able to help me replace a broken door lock (which prevented me from safely locking my front door to my home) the same evening, within 1.5 hours of me messaging him. It does help that he lives in the neighborhood next to me - even if that wasn't the case, I would recommend him without hesitation for any handyman repairs.

Jon was great. He was able to pull the door trim away and fix the door hinge without damaging the drywall. Once the trim was off we saw that the construction workers never installed the door properly. There was no wood behind the door frame for the hinge to anchor. Jon was able chisel enough space to add wood and anchor the hinge properly. He replaced the trim and caulk, and said he could repaint. He did such I good job, I saw no reason to paint anything, he didn't damage the trim or drywall. The door works perfectly now.

Jon did a fantastic job reattaching pieces of decorative brick back on to the side of my home. He did fabulous work blending in the broken pieces with the original brick that I can't tell where the damaged pieces had been. Jon was great with communication keeping me informed of the progress of the job. He was very professional, dependable, prompt and if he said he would do something he would do it. Jon even went out of his way to make sure a downspout was properly draining away from the house.

Jon recalled a shower pan in Nov and did an excellent job. I also had him look at damaged grout on kitchen and bath floors. He said that he didn't think he was the right person for that job and recommended someone else. In Feb I had him replace and repair drywall in my basement ceiling after a water leak and plumbing repair. Jon did an excellent job and even redid one small section that was not up to his standards at no charge. He repaired some balloons too. All of Jon's work has been excellent. He has high standards and isn't satisfied with anything less. He is very pleasant and answers calls fairly quickly. We will certainly use him for all our small projects from now on.

Jon did two jobs for me. He replaced some rotten wood on a backyard fence. He also replaced a piece of rotten trim on my house. All work was outstanding including painting and clean up. Best of all, he was able to work around my schedule so I could avoid taking off work, including twice stopping by on a Saturday afternoon. I would definitely hire again in the future.

This is the second time I have used Evan's Home Improvement and would certainly use them in the future. Jon replaced some rotten wood on a backyard fence, including staining the wood. He also replaced the rotten wood trim around my garage with a composite material that will not rot. All work was outstanding including painting and clean up of the site. I appreciate that he arrived as scheduled and completed all work on time. Costs were very reasonable. I would highly recommend him.

He was wonderful. He can look at anything and figure out how to fix it. I didn't have to give him a lot of details or instruction so he really knows his craft. The fact that he has a broad range of skills was very impressive.
Description of Work
He started out with two small projects and ended up doing several other things for me. He fixed locks on the doors, changed a light over the dining table, cut a wall in half and but in bead board and painted, fixed a wall on my shed, helped with an electrical outlet, and replaced window locks.

Jon is a true professional and always does quality work. He is very responsive and easy to contact for scheduling or if I have questions along the way. As I own rental property, repairs can quickly add up and there's always one issue or another that needs to be fixed. Having a handyman like Jon who is dependable, honest, and hardworking gives me huge peace of mind. I know when he goes to make a repair that it will be done right. His pricing is also very competitive and fair. Keep up the great work! I highly recommend Jon Evans to anyone. He easily ranks among the top contractors I've ever hired.

Installation of the bathroom faucet was done efficiently and Jon cleaned up perfectly. He further recommended a plumbing firm to take care of the problem with my outdoor spigot, and texted me when he saw an Angie's List deal which he thought fit my needs. So thoughtful! Jon's a eeliable technician and a great guy.
Description of Work
Jon installed a bathroom faucet which he'd advised me to purchase previously. He then inspected my outdoor faucet, which was dripping. He followed the line inside and determined that the outdoor spigot needed to be replaced and the main shutoff valve also needed replacement.

Mr. Evans responded to our request for three separate bids each within one week and completed our list of projects quickly, doing an excellent job. He costed out options for some of the fixes, so that we could make informed decisions. He is very competent and professional and we will definitely go to him for future projects.

I decided to call Jon to come take a look at a problem toilet that had a clog in it that I just couldn't plunge away. He came out on short notice and snaked it without any trouble, all for a reasonable fee. I've used Jon before for odd-jobs around the house, like hanging curtain rods, and would go to him for most other jobs initially before paying more for a specialist. He was friendly, professional, and does things for a reasonable rate.
