The work was done quickly and with precision. The repaired area is matched perfectly to the existing drywall and texture. There is no sign of the original cut out.

Dennis was great. Sent me a text right away and asked for photos then quoted me a very fair price. Set up a time a few days later to come out and did the initial repair and came back the next day and did all the finishing work. Very personable and professional too.

slight scheduling issue other than that work man was extremely polite and work performed was satisfactory. front door seems ready for winter weather. Job involved removing door, sinking door hinges deeper and evenly, striping one side of door casing and installing a new door sweep.

They were prompt and did good work. A little on the expensive side at 90/hr not including materials.

Called a couple times and phone just rings; no answering machine either. Quite odd.

The guy called 20 min. before the appointment to cancel, by which time I had already rearranged my schedule for the day to meet with him. He made excuses about his worker calling in sick or something and when I noted that that was not my fault he copped a very rude and unprofessional attitude to the point where I simply terminated the phone call. I would NEVER spend money with these people. RUN AWAY.
Response from Mr Handyman of Waukesha & North Milwaukee County
"Thank You for your feedback, we try to get to all the estimates at the end of the day unfortunately the Techs do get held up on their previous job, as was this case. Thank You again for your feedback."

We hired Mr. Handyman to complete a drywall repair. We had two spots in the house that plumbers cut out for repairs. I called and was surprised that they gave me an estimate over the phone and scheduled the appt to do the work right then. I went with it because I wanted the job done and the price seemed reasonable. First off the handyman showed up to do a drywall repair and did not have any drywall or supplies. Why would you show up with nothing? He had general tools but no drywall. So the first day he spent 3-4 fours cutting the spots out. They charge over $100/hour. So four hundred dollars into the job and the job was 10% done. The next day he showed up and we ran out to get drywall and supplies and they charge extra for trip charges. The company only scheduled him for 4 hours on my job. So by the time we got the supplies he only had 2.5 hours to work on my job. We (emphasis on we - I was his help for the entire job) got drywall into one spot. No mud or tapping. So now I am into this job $800 and the job is 25%. I am so ******. I called to complain and they claimed that he spent most of the time fixing previous work. Such BS. They wanted to schedule a followup appt to finish the job. I said no thanks and I called a drywall company to fix. The handyman also did not tape anything off so there was dust everywhere. I cleaned up after everything he did because I didn't want to pay him $100/hour to vacuum. And the next day I noticed a couple outlets didnt work. I am not sure what he did. Another thing...I also helped him with the job the entire time. Placing the drywall, screwing it in, holding it up, I went to the store with him and I cut 2x2s for him with my chop saw. The only thing they did good was showed up on time. I would not recommend these guys. Hire a pro not a general handyman if you want the job done right.

Pros: - Work that was finished on siding was done well. Cons: - Job was left unfinished. Workers claimed the remaining part of the wall was "too dangerous" to access without a lift, even though nothing about it was pointed out during quoting and even into the first days of the job. When I pointed out the unfinished part of the house, I was informed that the quote was time/materials, and I would receive a separate quote for the work that was supposed to be finished in the first place. Still waiting for that quote. - Soffit color did not match existing soffit. I was informedafter the product was installed that the color I have would have to be special order and would take time to procure. They had 2 months between our agreement and the actual work being done (due to bad weather); more than enough time to find and buy matching soffit.

Mr. Handyman sent Ralph Saverine for our job. He was on time, went out of his way to be responsive to our requests and was both personable and professional. We have used the services of Mr. Handyman in the past and will certainly do so in the future as projects come up.

I had a water damage on my living room drywall and it took almost 4 visits spread across 2 weeks to fix it. The quality of work was poor and they were supposed to complete the work with interior painting too. But till date, after 3 weeks of follow up, the painting work is still not completed. No response to emails...I made the mistake of paying them for the work done till date. Now they have got paid, it looks like they have conveniently decided not to respond and finish up the work
Response from Mr Handyman of Waukesha & North Milwaukee County
"I have spoken with Mr. [Member Name Removed] on this matter, he asked for a estimate for the work that needed to be finished (painting the full wall), I did send the estimate to him on 2/20/2018, he was going to call to set a date after he received the Estimate, at this point we have not heard from Mr. [Member Name Removed]. Thank You Mr. Handyman"

I sent a message on their website on Sept 12th. They called me on the 13th and asked if I could send some pictures, which I did. When I did not hear back I called the next day. I was told their tech had yet to look at the pictures but that he should get to it that day. After still not getting a call back that business day, I sent another message from their website. I just wanted to know if they would take the job or if I needed to look elsewhere. The next day, a Friday, and hour before they closed for the weekend, I still hadn't heard from them. I used the "live chat" on their website. I got the feeling it wasn't live since the response was generic. The "guy" I was chatting with wanted my phone number and email then abruptly ended the chat saying someone would contact me. I did get a call back, but the answer was the same...the tech still has to look at the pictures, which he will do over the weekend. To date, which is Nov 29th, I have yet to hear back. However, they have added me to their emailing advertising list, which is ironic since they never followed up in any way for the job I needed done. By the next Monday when they still had not contacted me I moved on to another company who wanted my business.

They added blackjack around the seam of that - but it did nothing to stop the leaks. When I called back to get next steps - they quickly said "no thanks" and suggested I call a roofer. They charged quite a bit for not much service. HOWEVER, that said, they were very professional, cleaned everything up quite nicely - so I cannot complain there - they did what they were asked - but the leak persists.

The large holes were on about 30ft. high, Ralph was very knowledgeable on how to repair the damage. He did a fantastic job, I can't see where the damage was. We are very happy with the job Ralph did. We would definitely call him for any work we need done.

I strongly discourage using this company. First, the handyman that quoted our job quit and a different handyman came in his place a day early. The new man did a terrible job muffing and taping. He took the entire day to get about half of a standard size living room done. When your paying by the hour that’s a big deal. The next day when he was to come back he never showed and the company could not get a hold of him. After waiting all day I went out to the store only to find that while I was gone he broke into my house to get his tools. The company had nothing to say other than an apology. I never heard from the company again for months until I was sent a letter letting me know they’re putting a lein on my house for a bill I never even saw. So for $870 I had an incomplete job that had to be fixed by JB drywall.

I found other comparable services providers who would do the same services for half the price. The reason I chose to go with Mr. Handyman is because they told me they could do the electrical that the other company told me up front they couldn’t do. Their tech came out, install the microwave fine. Hung the closet doors wrong (before they were getting stuck, after he finished they just fall of the track) and removed switch plates (and didn’t replace them) for the electrical to tell us he couldn’t fix it. For this I got billed for 3.5 hours of work; for tasks that should have taken two hours and the electrical they couldn’t do. I did talk to the company and they were very eager to make it right and their second technician was able to correct what the previous tech did wrong, but came back with same outcome on the electrical. I am fine paying an electrician to fix the lights, but I shouldn’t have been billed for the time they decided they couldn’t do it and, moreover, they should not have told me they could have done the lights if they couldn’t.
Response from Mr Handyman of Waukesha & North Milwaukee County
"We strive for 100% satisfaction in our business and provide top notch service to our customers. Upon arrival your electrical was evaluated and at that time it was determined it was a job our tech could not do. We are sorry to hear of your mixed experience."

It was an excellent experience. Dean went above and beyond in fixing the issue and was meticulous in the finishing. He also came up with a solution for some rotting wood at the base of the window/door. He also came up with a solution to the cause/source of the water problem. The end result was a night and day difference. I look forward to working with Dean in the future.
