Tom, the handyman from Shirey Handyman Services was wonderful. He was prompt, very professional and did an amazing job.
He removed an existing bar area, all the cabinets and the small bar sink. He capped off the plumbing and sealed it off. He then made all necessary repairs to the wall.
Because the floor area around the bar was tiled (and not carpeted like the rest of the TV room I was left with a small area that would be visible from under the new desk area after the installation of the office cabinets and I was stressing about whether I would be able to match the tiles.
Tom, the handyman was great! He suggested that if he could very carefully removed some of the tiles from the top of the bar cabinet (they matched the floor but were just a bit smaller) he could tile the part of the floor that was going to show under the desk. He was able to it and it looks wonderful.
Tom, did everything he could to make sure he got everything exactly as I wanted / needed.
Thanks Tom & Shirey Handyman Services

I paid $225 more. He was late. Some of the work could have been of higher quality. The price for some of the work that I needed to be done was probably high. They left the area moderately clean, there was some clean up for me to do.

Jesse arrived on time. Ready to begin work. Reviewed the projects and got right to work. Had great ideas how to complete the repairs. Very experienced. When completed the requested repairs, had a little time left asked to do additional work.

I was quoted 10 days to remodel a small bathroom. After the
first day, if the time actually needed was going to be longer it should have
been communicated to me so that the scope could be adjusted, as I had a budget
I was trying to stick to. There were a few things that came up that would
possibly have added some time, but as it was a small bathroom, I did not see
anything that should take more than 10 days. On the fourth day, I asked the
worker how much longer, I was told two days. After 6 more days, and the help of
another worker, the bathroom was finally completely. There were many issues
with scheduling days, so half way through the job he had to pack up all his
materials (charging me an extra 3 hours to do that), so that he could work on
another job. The worker was actually rather rude on the last day and made me
very uncomfortable. On the surface the job looked good, but if you really look
at the work, it was substandard. The shower door was put on upside down, the
accent tiles were crooked, grout on the floor was cracked, and the paint job
was very sloppy (some due to missed spots and some due to bad plaster work).
So, after actually only being at the house for 10 days (and actual work time I
tracked the equivalent of 9.4 days) I was charged for a total of 10.4 days.
Plus I was charged 5.5 hrs for the time the helper was there (even though a
percentage of that time was spent fixing a leak from an installation on the
kitchen sink from another of their workers the week before). Buyer beware?.you
are charged for the time that it takes them to shop and drive from the store to
your house, the time it takes them to load their truck back up, and the time
that it takes for them to write down their hours, plus any phone calls they do
throughout the day that causes the work to stop. Also, if they have bought
anything they don?t need, you are charged their time to bring the item back. When
I questioned the hours, I was told that ?it takes however long it takes?. They
had an excuse for every issue I brought up. They finally did reduce the bill,
but taking off the equivalent hours of the extra worker. But the overtime that
was charged by the worker for slow work (he was scheduled for heart surgery the
week after the job, so he was dealing with that during the time I was told it
takes however long it takes, this I am sure contributed to the slowness of the
job. As well as the shaking of hands, which I would assume would make lying
tiles hard and slow). I might have been okay with a ?however long it takes?, if
it was a quality installation. But, there are so many issues, I?m not sure what
he was doing in there all that time. They did ?offer? to have someone come out
and fix the issues, but I was uncomfortable with having any of them in my house
again, as both jobs I had them do were botched and the worker was rude. Also, I
was told that the worker that did the original work was their best person, so I
don?t see how someone else could fix the issues. I would not hire this company
again as they basically have a bait and switch business model. You are at the
mercy of the speed of their workers to take as long as they feel like it and
say they ?worked? however many hours they want, plus project management is
poor. I was told after that while the worker was telling me just one more day,
he was telling the project manager something completely different, which was
never communicated to me. The project manager knew what I was looking for on
budget and the final invoice was over $1,500 budget. In several instances the
worker stated the reason it took so long, was the time to get from the garage
where he was cutting tile to the bathroom, which required going up a staircase.
For some reason (I can only assume he didn?t want to carry the saw up the
stairs) he did not want to set the saw up on my deck, which was on the same
floor as the bathroom and would not have required using stairs between the saw
and bathroom. I can only assume he wanted the overtime. Save your money and
hire an experienced contractor that can be trusted not to bleed you dry.

Response from Shirey Home Pro
"As the client stated, the job was indeed estimated to take ten days. She insisted on scheduling only five days initially because she was convinced the job of fully renovating and tiling a two room bathroom was a “small” job. The technician on the job felt he was being rushed to finish the work in the five days and gave up his weekend and worked with his next clients to rescheduled their appointments as possible, to finish the job in nine days. It was explained to the client during the initial scheduling that if the job did take more than the five days she wanted to schedule, then the additional five days estimated to finish the job were not guaranteed to be sequential days. At the time of scheduling, the calendar was filling three to four weeks in advance, but she insisted it “would be fine”. The client changed the scope of the work to include a complex tiling pattern on both the floor and in the shower, including trim patterns of small scale tiles, and added additional installation items along the way as the project continued. She did not feel that it should take more time to either set or grout the additional pattern or complete the detail work. The shower door was not put on upside down, but the handle was (due to a hard to see manufacturer mark which was not initially visible to the technician). When the technician asked her if she wanted him to remove and turn it, he was told not to because the client did not want to spend more time. The client purchased her materials to save money, but did not purchase enough grout to complete the complex pattern. Towards the end of the tiling the technician was forced to economize on the grout because the client did not want to purchase more materials. This led to a natural cracking in the grout as it dried because it was too thin in places. The client did not want the technician to purchase more grout and make the repair to finish the grout work correctly. The client told the technician not to repair the drywall or prior paint work. When the new paint was applied the aberrations became very clear. The client still insisted that the technician not repair the work. The client wanted the technician to set his tools up outside, in the rain, rather than under cover in the garage. On the second day, they dumped their Christmas tree in the middle of the workers set up space and he had to work around the tree. In order to finish the original ten days estimated (80 hours of work) plus the additional items which the client added to the scope of work, the technician worked several days for more than 10 hours, which he did not bill the client for. The client was aware that time spent sourcing materials, as well as the materials are chargeable to their appointment. That was why she wanted to supply the materials herself. Some materials she did not know what to buy or where to purchase the items so our technician did the work and yes, we do bill for his time and those materials. After finishing the job, in less time and for less money, the client refused to pay the bill which had come in $1000 less than what was originally estimated for the work, not including the additions she had made along the way, which she flatly denied should add anything to the final bill. This client did not appreciate the complexity of the tasks she requested, the expertise or dedication of the worker involved, the difficulties of not providing easy access or space to work or how that complicates a job. She wanted a $15,000 bathroom made for under $10,000 and in less time than any other contractor would have agreed to. We would not recommend working with this client again to any other contractor."

I had detailed the scope of work with Shirey weeks ago with an employee who no longer works there. While the details were not communicated to her replacement, everything worked out splendidly. Kathleen in the office worked hard to schedule last minute help to complete this job in 2 days. Jesse came in on the first day and expertly installed 7 of the 8 doors. The workmanship is superb. Jeff joined Jesse on the 2nd day and installed casing around 9 doors. His attention to detail was excellent and the result shows it.
The whole job from start to end was great and very professional. The workmanship to the footing of our door to the mud room was more than we expected and looks considerably better than I had imagined. Way to go, Shirey!

Tom completed the work and did an awesome job. He was very careful measuring all the wood trim pieces and the framing turned out perfect. He replaced old light fixtures outside my home. He cleaned everything up before he left. Great job!

The jobs done by Junior were of excellent quality. He hung about 20 photos and paintings and a very heavy antique mirror. His talent in hanging all of this things was outstanding - everything was spaced perfectly and the work looks professional instead of the mess my husband would have made. My backyard is split level and has a small hill which I've fallen down numerous times. Junior cut down a tall, large birdhouse on an old iron pipe at the top of the rise and took it away by way of an inconvenient route because of the layout of our townhome (alternative would be to carry it through the house). He also repaired a broken toilet paper holder and looked at a few other odds and ends that I want to have taken care of. My 45-gallon fiberglass soaking tub has a few small cracks and Junior recommended that I hire a company in the business of fiberglass repair. I also have a broken microwave door handle that is unrepairable. I can find a new handle online using the model number and then it can be repaired. Also, I have 20-foot long brocade drapes in my living room that came with my house. I've wanted to have those taken down for 3 years and didn't know who to contact about that. I was so happy to learn that is something that Shirey can do that. The drapes are so heavy that I'll probably need dump truck to haul them away. Junior is the perfect handyman in my opinion -- his work is meticulous. Junior is an overall nice guy whose work couldn't be more professional. He's friendly and personable. Good job Shirey -- I would not hesitate to hire again or recommend to family and friends.

We discovered that the vent was going under the house not to a vent outside of the house. I'm having difficulties with that one. I took the deal. The work that was done very very good. My contract after wards made me think twice. I do consider them to be expensive but I think the work that they do is very very good. I just think, I'm still not use to the charges of a handyman. I contacted them afterwards to ask about another project and pretty much those are there rates for anything and that is expensive for me so I didn't end up using them.

I purchased this deal to have some work done on my rental house for my tenant. Since I'm quite a bit a ways from the rental house I don't have time to go over there and make the repairs myself. I've used Shirey Handyman Service LLC for some small work on my house in the past and was VERY PLEASED, I figured I'd give them a try by purchasing a full day of service and allow my tenant to give them a TODO List. Today, my tenant thanked me for purchasing the deal because the Shirey Handyman did such an AMAZING JOB. It's a great feeling when you can partner with a business to successfully help you run your own business. I'd HIGHLY recommend them and look forward to working with them again.

Jesse did a great job. On-time for the work, and able to complete it well withing the two days. He also gave us some ideas of things we need to do in the future. Jesse was highly enthusiastic. able to work around the shortcomings of the house construction (not exactly square), and still be cheerful and professional. We will likely utilize Jesse in the future.

when we first made the list of 'to dos', we thought it might be too long for one working day of a handyman purchased as a big deal on angieslist, but he moved so quickly and efficiently that it all got done, plus some little things that he just noticed and took upon himself. definitely a relief, and money well spent to get the loose ends of various projects tied up.
