My Handyman Crew

Greg was the one that came to my house. He is wonderful! I was very happy with him and he did a great job!

EDIT 10/26/2015: Originally mistakenly posted to Mr. Fix-It. Edited to reflect posting to correct vendor My Handyman Cres We had the wood floor in our bedroom removed and went with a polished concrete finish - It came out beautiful. We just needed to have new baseboard installed and this long process would be finished. I signed up with Angie's List and settled on the highly rated My Handyman Crew to install new baseboard. I ended up with new baseboard, along with the requirement to repaint our recently painted bedroom and an expensive reminder that, when dealing with contract work , Caveat emptor! My Handyman Crew showed up as agreed, looked over the job and did his measurements. When I contacted My Handyman Crew on the phone I told him that I would provide the new baseboard, but when he showed up, I asked him if he could supply the materials and gave him a piece of the old baseboard. He said he could get the baseboard and that he charged a 30% mark-up on materials - I agreed. I also asked if he could touch-up the baseboard around the rest of the house because the nail holes and corners had not been caulked. My Handyman Crew showed up several days later along with a worker who he introduced. He said the worker would be doing the actual installation work. After a full day, the baseboard was installed in the Bedroom - this was a Friday - and the worker said he would be back on the following Tuesday to finish. It seemed to me that the job was going slower than I would have expected - a full day of 8+ hours to install ~80 feet of baseboard? The worker left quite a mess of sawdust and old caulking around the bedroom and patio which we had to clean up. Before the worker returned, I called My Handyman Crew to find out how much of a bill I was running up and how much more work he expected. I also let him know that I was concerned about the pace of work and the mess. Ready .... He informed me that he charged $65 per hour- on top of the 30% mark-up on materials! He said he would talk to the worker about the pace of work, and that he would likely charge only for the hours worked to date and finish up the work on Tuesday. Tuesday, the worker finished in approximately 2 hours then left. I was surprised when, 5 minutes later, My Handyman Crew showed up at the door - Invoice in hand and the worker tailing along. Clearly, he was going to COLLECT his money! He asked me to walk around, and approve the work. I was surprised, intimidated and unprepared for a final inspection and payment just 5 minutes after the work had finished. He informed me that he was going to charge for all hours worked and that the amount of billed work was justified because of a transition between the bedroom and bathroom floor where the baseboard had to be trimmed to accommodate the 3/8" higher tile floor in the bathroom. He followed me around the house with the bill in hand as I looked over the work. I felt that if I asked for anything to be done the meter would start running and my bill would go up. As I asked questions or pointed things out, I was careful to state that I was not asking for any additional work. We went back and forth for a short time with me pointing our that we would have been happier if he would have installed baseboard that covered the old caulk line and him pointing our that I had given him a piece of baseboard and that's what he installed. I just wanted this over. It was useless attempting to express any dissatisfaction. I won't be calling My Handyman Crew again.

Very prompt. Courteous. Clean. Professional. Bid by phone and did what was asked .

They charge $65 to come out. They are just expense. I don't plan to use them in the future.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome... that pretty much sums it up. He has done multiple jobs for us and my office loves him. Very professional, knows his stuff and overall nice guy. Every time I have called him he responds immediately and quickly helps us. We have a non-profit and I wish he was all over California because we would use him at all our offices. Very happy with this guy... you can't go wrong.

Picked up supplies and materials for a nominal fee. Pleasant and helpful. Will be contacting them again today.

When I called and explained what I wanted done he said he would come by the following tuesday to take a look at it and give me a price. He also said he would call ahead of time and let me know when he was coming. I never heard anything more from him. I waited all day for him and he never called or showed up.

and quot;THEY ARRIVED ON TIME AND WENT TO WORK INSTALLING THE SMOKE ALARM AND CARBON MONIXIDE ALARM. THEY ALSO INSTALLED THE LOCK AND PUT A NEW WHEEL ON MY WHEELBARROW.

A few days ago, when I closed the murphy bed in my son's room, I heard an awful crack. One of the hydraulic springs had come loose and pried the mattress frame apart. Since Greg the repairman needed some emergency dental work that morning, the agreed-upon arrival time was delayed. But he went the extra mile and squeezed my appointment in so my son wouldn't have to sleep on the floor over Christmas. He is very personable and professional and fixed the bed quickly.

They did a good job with the assembly and I would use them again.

All of the Handman Crew were busy at other homes when our waterheater broke down. Since we had been satisfied with previous work they had been hired to do, replace a garbage disposal, a faucet, and do some electrical work, they were our first choice this time. None of the crew was available due to other commitments, so the owner himself came to our house and did the job. He was thorough, even explaining the new laws pertaining to waterheaters and everything he was doing. Because of their commitment to doing a good job, we would not hesitate to recommend them.
