"Technician Jim was not impressive. Was not confident when answering the questions I asked. Very contradicting.. Tried to sell product for items that were not even in need of repair. Spoke negatively about the company and made excuses as to why he could not perform his job due to lack of information from dispatch or technician manager. Said he would follow up, I never heard from him. Blessing to me, I decided to go with another HVAC company. I typically would not put names out there, but please be careful if you get this gentleman as a technician."

"Do not trust Keith elliot and fresh start renovations. Keith started working for us on January 28, 2025. We met him at a coffee shop and told him exactly what the job position entailed. He seemed like a great fit. He said him and his brother owned like 5000 units. Now I question that. He’s very personable. Do not be fooled by him. He is also seems very educated on maintenance and construction projects. I asked him if he knew how to run ductwork for an existing air handler at a house we were selling? He said oh yes, I know how to do it. Keith and Rick his co-worker spent a few days re-running all the duct work. It looked like it was done right. He charged us. $3126.40 for labor & $1098.04 for material. We called a professional license company to hook up the air handler. He came over to give me an estimate on the air handler and said will be more than happy to do this. However, your duct work is completely done wrong. I was in shock I said what do you mean it’s done wrong? He said all the runs are too small. It will not do anything. It’ll never be able to keep up and explained what had to be done. unfortunately, it had to all be redone. I had told this to Keith that it’s all going to have to be redone and that he’s going to have to repay us back for the labor. He agreed that he would pay it back. In hindsight, we should’ve saw the signs. He had excuses when he wouldn’t respond to us for days on end. We have tenants that needed maintenance done that he was ignoring. He also did other maintenance or projects wrong that ended up costing us a lot of money and materials and labor that he charged us for even though it wasn’t done correctly. Our gas fireplace was not working. He put the parts of $550 in it worked for a minute. Then stop working. I asked him if it’s not gonna work then we need to take these parts back. That was a whole another fiasco. They take one part out and take it back to Racine all dirty and the company didn’t want to take it back. I asked him to clean it up and why would he try to return it like that? Then there’s another part once again had to go back to the house take it off and return it. We were charged all this time in labor? We asked him to wrap some pipes in the basement. They wrapped it with some silver aluminum material. It looked really stupid and that was more cost that we couldn’t return the material because it was already used. We send them over to one of our other properties had a water leak going to the downstairs. He said it was a shower. I was getting ready to redo the whole shower. Thank God he didn’t show back up because it wasn’t the shower. It was the roof vent. Early on when he was working for us, we asked him to pick up a Well from Lisbon and install it at one of our properties outside. It’s a front window for the basement. They don’t install it. They just said it next to it for somebody to steal. I’m sure there’s a lot of other issues that we dealt with, but this is just some of them and he only worked for us for a couple months. We have repeatedly tried to resolve this without taking us to the authorities to fall on deaf ears. He would say yes I’m coming over. We would set a time and not show up and now he’s just ignoring our text messages. He has been warned. Unfortunately, now we have to report him and his business to the Better Business Bureau, Angie’s list where we found him and end up having to sue him in court if he doesn’t settle up with us. Like I said, he’s a very nice guy and very personable, but not trustworthy. He not only kept the 60 receipts of ours. He kept our Home Depot card and our master key and I’m gonna call the state of Wisconsin to see if I can file a report for theft of Contractor. Very sad that you can’t trust anybody these days because he seems so trustworthy."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost to repair an appliance depends on the appliance, make, model, the part that needs repair, and how long it takes to replace or repair a part. The following are the average repair costs for the most common appliances:
Refrigerator: $200–$300
Freezer: $90–$500
Oven, cooktop, range: $100–$500
Microwave: $50–$400
Dishwasher: $160–$300
Garbage disposal: $70–$250
Washing machine: $50–$450
Dryer: $100–$400
Appliance repair contractors may charge $40 to $120 per hour for labor, and most also provide the replacement parts necessary at an additional cost. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays and emergency fees may apply if you need your appliance fixed immediately.
The cost of home appliances ranges from $350 to $8,000 or more, depending on the brand, type of appliance, and features. Additional cost factors include any hookups that need to be installed, such as gas, plumbing, or electrical. Keep in mind that major appliances, such as refrigerators, washers and dryers, and water heaters, will cost more than minor appliances, such as microwaves, due to the size, complexity, and essential nature of the item.
