The work was completed efficiently and professionally, and they even cleaned up afterwards. I am very pleased with the end result, and will use them again. I paid an additional fee for them to dispose of the old microwave.
Description of Work: Roy and his partner removed my old above the range microwave and installed a new one.

Any handyman can fix a toilet, right? Well, not if you have my toilet — a round, 25-year old Kohler. It seems whoever designed this toilet had a mean streak: You have to push its handle down from the back, instead of the front. The result: Guests break it while trying to flush it. So I’ve had Roy to my house a number of times. The last time, I tried to fix the toilet myself with some verbal encouragement from Roy and a part from Home Depot. After the second part from Home Depot didn’t fit, I ordered a part from Kohler and called Roy. Unfortunately, the part was right-handed instead of left-handed. Roy took the part and the paperwork with him, called Kohler, got them to send me another part for free and then came back and installed the new part within minutes. Needless to say, I think Roy is great and would like to use him again. Any handyman can fix a toilet, right? Well, not if you have my toilet — a round, 25-year old Kohler.

Roy has been our 'go to' handyman since I came to Desert Hot Springs in 2014. He has done many small and larger jobs for us. He is very knowledgeable and experienced and will explain what he is doing and why. I have been quite pleased with his work in general. He is busy so you do have to work with him on schedule but if it's an emergency he will work with you.
Description of Work: Installed new front door and security screen. Installed new mailbox.

Roy, of course, showed up on time, he knows what he's doing, is reasonably priced and professional. Of course I will hire him again, best handyman ever!
Description of Work: I needed a small computer desk replaced and I wanted a dark wood desk. I called Roy first to ask if he would be able to put it together--the reviews of the desk said it could take about four hours, he said he would so I ordered the desk. When it arrived, it came in two large boxes. I called Roy and we agreed on a time and he was punctual.

Roy did an excellent and professional job.
Description of Work: Cleanup, board up, secured property while coordinating Communication between subcontractors for property Owner.
I have a rental property in Desert Hot Springs and I live in LA so having someone I can depend on for general repairs is very important. Roy has worked for me for several years and he does great work. He always show up when he says he will, that in itself is a minor miracle, does a professional job and his costs are reasonable. The last time he was at my house, he repaired a door, fixed a lock and repaired some cabinets. He also suggests ways I can save money if possible, which is always appreciated. He is also always very nice to work with and I highly recommend him. Sheila
Description of Work: General Repairs: doors painted, locks changes, cabinets repaired

Excellent, professional service. I highly recommend his services.
Description of Work: Ordered replacement ceiling fan based on my comment that I couldn't get it to function. When he arrived with new fan, he showed me that there was a THREE WAY switch and I had only used the first 2. Checked all connections and switches plus he returned the new fan all at a minimum charge.

I arranged several days in advance both on phone speaking with him and on Angie's messaging system. He agreed to arrive during a 4 hour window I offered as acceptable to me. We talked during that 4 hour window so I could reiterate he needed to arrive before the end of the 4 hour window. he said He would make it. He didn't. He called me just after the end of the 4 hours to say he would make it in another half hour. I told him no that I didn't wish to do business with someone I could not rely on to do what was agreed upon. I asked a gardener with a truck who was working in my neighborhood if he would haul the trash Roy was supposed to haul. He said he would and offered to do it for &$25.00 less than Roy wanted.
Description of Work: Was supposed to haul some trash.

They did a good job but they weren't very good on clean-up. They were prompt. They were here when they said they were going to be. It's just the clean-up wasn't very good.
Description of Work: They rebuilt a fence on an iron frame and painted both sides.

He put home repair and I thought that he could do the plumbing. I called him for plumbing job and he couldn't do so he had to ask somebody else. It took him about a month to do it. They don't follow up with the customer to repair it. It was taking a long time and he didn't do it. He was hiring a plumber.

Roy and his helper came out and performed the work quickly and cleaned up nicely when they were done. I originally brought Roy out to replace the fascia but he suggested just repairing it which saved me about 50%. He a good guy and I'll call him again if I need his services. Thanks Roy!

We were charged at time of service, and I am requesting a refund. The actual bathroom sink that we needed fixed (and paid for on Angie's list) was not fixed by Roy's Home Repair. We paid him that day. I am requesting a $135 refund for services not completed.
Description of Work: The provider fixed our dryer vent in our laundry room, something completely seperate from the promotion. We were charged $160 for that service, Roy had no idea that we had purchased the deal on Angie's list.

Everything worked out just fine. He brought an assistant and completed everything from start to finish with no involvement on my part. Both people were very friendly and professional. He called ahead to confirm the appointment then arrived as promised. I wouldn't hesitate to call Roy again when I need a handyman.

Roy did a great job in cold and rainy weather - including the necessary soldering to complete this outdoor operation. Roy honored his estimate even though the job took longer than expected because of wet and windy weather conditions. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat!

He has clear knowledge of drains. He worked until finished and had materials to use already with him.

I was moving and I wanted everything checked because we were moving our washer and dryer. These were going to be going upstairs at our new home. I The guy couldn't figure out what I wanted.. I said, check them out and if you see anything that may need to be replaced, replace it. I believe there was something wrong with the dryer. He fixed what needed to be fixed. But i asked for the hoses to be replaced on the washer... he looked at me like i was a stupid woman. He did it any way. Well we got the new ones to our home and within a month we had to call out another repair man... to replace hoses. It just is so aggravating ... I guess I am a stupid woman after all... or maybe I was, for trusting him and his judgement. So got another bill for 275 from the new repairman. I don't remember the company's name... but they fixed it.
