Nearby Window Blind Repair in Ashburn

One of the cords on my shades broke and I just wanted it fixed. Didn't want to get new blinds/shades. Had a hard time finding anyone to just fix the cord until I found "Made in the Shade." It was around $125 to get this restrung which is way cheaper than new shades (mine are top down bottom up shades). They came out the next day to fix (I am in Arlington) and the guy Brooks was excellent. Super polite - covered his shoes - and had my cord fixed in less than 1 hour. The best!

They were great. They touched up the walls in our half bathroom and did some tile repair and also fixed a window frame on the exterior of our home. They got a lot done in the 3 hours they were here.

The two workers (John and Isaias) did excellent work and were focused and diligent while on the job during the two-day period. The work they did was top-rate, and they also pointed out a missing downspout and fixed that (got a new one and installed it) as well as the scheduled work. They were very polite and left the work area clean.

The handyman Israel was the man that did the work. Very nice guy who worked quickly and precisely. He did a very good job on the drywall repair and impressed me with the quality of work. Very very good. This was a very good deal.

My overall experience with them went very well. He called me on the phone, came out the next day and gave me an estimate. He did the repairs. He actually told me there was one repair he is not going to charge me for, he just told me what to do and I resolved it myself. So, it went very well. I have had him give me an estimate to redo my bathroom.

Mark Littman can do a wide variety of handyman jobs. He has done a bunch of carpentry, repair, and fix up work at our house, is always careful, and gets the job done right. His current rate is $50/hour, with a two hour minimum. If there is something he can't do, he will tell you. He is a nice guy to boot.

I'd originally purchased a deal for one handyman all day to take care of a few "Honey Do List" items before things had gotten out of control. When the estimators came to assess my needs and provided and LOE, it looked like it would take one person at least 2 of 3 days to do the work. Since I wanted to knock it all out in one fell swoop, I purchased an additional handyman for a whole day at regular price. To be honest, one of the two men that was sent to work on my house (I believe his name was Melvin) was not up to par. I was not pleased with his work or his efforts. He showed up an hour late and had no attention to detail on anything he did. After my comments and observations, the other handyman had to run behind him and fix it. There were cracks in the ceiling that he did not repair and simply painted over. He replaced the security latch in a crooked and unstable manner. He'd gotten the white ceiling paint on my walls. When he ripped the tarp off of the ceiling/wall, he ripped off paint and it looked like an eye sore. He also was a poor planner and had to leave the house twice to make Home Depot runs for supplies that I was charged for and he took with him when he left. I was not happy with him at all. His co-worker, Barnaby, in contrast arrived promptly and everything he did was done well. I had no complaints with his work. When they left, I paid my bill but was not happy. I emailed pictures, called back, spoke with a representative. They agreed to send someone out to repair the work. This is what I truly appreciate about JW Home Improvement. At no point and time did they make me feel like my expectations were unrealistic or that I was being too picky. They also didn't charge me for any subsequent visits to correct the issues or things that were to be repaired. The handyman that was sent out to make the corrections, Justin, is now the primary reason why JW Home Improvement will be my first call should I have any handyman needs. Going forward, I will always request Justin personally and if he is not available, I will wait. Justin's attention to detail is unparalleled. When he made the repairs to the ceiling, he did not miss anything. Everything was covered from the furniture to the floor to protect it from paint and debris. Justin did a thorough walk-through with me to make sure that he saw everything that was an issue for me and even noticed a couple of spots that were missed that I hadn't. He takes his time and does things right. As I felt bad about pointing out anything that the prior handyman had missed, Justin continued to reiterate that he and JW Improvement weren't happy unless I was happy. The fact that Justin is knowledgeable, honest and polite beyond words also put me at ease and elevated my trust and confidence in JW Improvement. As far as I'm concerned, Justin is the JW Improvement shining star. JW Improvement clearly has a focus on quality and customer satisfaction. I understand why their reviews are consistently high. They will have a repeat customer in me. Especially, if Justin is available to do the work!

Kenny and Chris were great to work with. They made recommendations as to other items they could fix so as to make the best use of their time and our money. They were very pleasant. When we need more things done I will ask for them specifically.

Very well. Raymond Humton and his colleague, Kevin, did an excellent job. They were courteous and professional. Kevin did an excellent job painting the front door and made sure that he had me look it over before he completed the task to ensure it was done to my satisfaction. Raymond did the various other repairs and was very personable and clearly had a wealth of experience (he also fixed my ceiling fan which was not on the original list). It was nice to feel my house was in good hands and that I was working with good people whom I could trust. I have used JW for other work and this was the fifth time they did work at my house. I recommend them!

I only had a minor repair to a roller blind, which District Shade Shop fixed by replacing the roller. Don was courteous and professional and fixed it perfectly; even though it was only a minor job, he never made me feel like it was unimportant. That's the kind of attitude that makes customers come back when they need more expensive items!

They were excellent. I would like to particularly thank Jay Peralta. It didn't fit properly when they first brought it to repair (due to manufacturer issues). They were nice and courteous throughout the entire process. They fixed the issue with the measurements. They were just as gracious as anything. I would highly recommend them!

During our phone call, I described the jobs that I needed done (cabinet installation, grout repair, curtain hanging, fixing front door hinges, and window repair). He gave me an itemized estimate of each task and let me know that he was unsure about being able to repair the windows, but would be willing to take a look to see if he could). I ended up doing the window repairs myself, but his quote was close to the cost of the materials that I ended up needing. I also used another service provider for some of the other repairs (because of an Angie's List deal) but Will's quotes were competitive with what I ended up paying. I would definitely consider using The Handyman Can LLC in the future.

Handyman was friendly, efficient, and skilled in multiple trades. Was able to complete two items on my to do list, and even had time to knock off an extra third item. Price for service was reasonable.

Steve is always very punctual and incredibly professional. He consistently does A+ work and always goes above and beyond any task I ask of him. I highly recommend him for any handyman type of work!

I manage a house in California from my home in Maryland for my relatives, and over time it needed many small to medium repairs to restore it to good condition. Steve Breyer responded quickly to my request for an estimate, named a reasonable price for the work needed, arranged access with the tenants, and efficiently and competently made all the repairs in a short period of time. Additionally, he identified other appliance work as out of his scope of practice and put me in touch with another vendor who quickly fixed those items at a reasonable cost. I know I will need a handyman in the future to keep this house in good repair; I also know I found him in Steve Breyer.

I first located The Handyman Can through Angie's List. Will Grant, the owner, did excellent work on my son's townhouse several months ago (see separate report). My son therefore engaged him to do the repair work on his condo after his renters moved out in April. Here is a summary of my son's experience: Will is very reliable and competent, and he is also very responsive and personable. He is capable of doing a wide range of repairs very well. He did excellent work on all the items listed above. I believe that his efficiency and competence has also saved me money. He found solutions to problems that other repair people had said could not easily be fixed. I got an excellent value for the price.

. Actually the handyman showed up early and got to work right away and did not dally. It was pretty smooth all in all. I would use him in the future.

Chris was fantastic from start to finish! I was very impressed with his politeness, professionalism, and knowledge of how to correct the problems! He was outstanding! A + + + He was respectful of me working from home but answered any questions I had when needed. Excellent service!

They came out and told me they were beyond repair and quoted me $1064 for one new blind. I decided to call the manufacturer, Horizon, at this point and double check with them, Horizon informed me that not only were the blinds able to be fixed but they were under warranty and would be fixed for free if I could ship them back. I then called The Blind Brokers back and conferenced them in with the manufacturer and they still insisted the blinds were beyond repair until Horizon chimed in. They were caught lying and promptly hung up on both of us. I proceeded to coordinate with Horizon who gave me names of other contractors in the are. I found an excellent supplier in Lori Gill Designs who not only helped coordinate my blinds getting repaired but they did it for free. I will never use The Blind Broker again and I do not appreciate their dishonesty.
