Asked for a quote to do several jobs around the house, and initially got a prompt response. But when we asked him to write up a quote and provide a separate receipt for one portion of the job he blew us off and told us he can no longer help us.

Response from The Manly Man Handyman
This client's property is outside of my service area, which they didn't disclose during their first contact, by email, with the business. Once I was given all the information I immediately told the client that I would not be available to help them, and apologized for any inconvenience this might have caused.
Contacted Jason through Angies List messages. He responded immediately. Our first meeting was not successful, since it was too dark after the time change to see the needed repairs; he had to come back later in the week. He was willing to work with my schedule and is prompt. His charges are reasonable, much less than the general contractor would have charged. When we accepted his estimate he asked when we'd like him to do the work. We asked him to do it as soon as possible, and he was finished in THREE DAYS! I didn't even realize he had come, much less that the work was finished, until two days after he sent the bill. Wow. Payment is easy and online. I feel like looking around the house to see if there's anything else I can ask him to do! ADDENDUM: I did, indeed, find more work that needed to be done. After the previous experience I was not even looking for another handyman but went directly to Jason. 1/12 I left a phone message but didn't hear back. 1/17 left an email via Angies List and we set up an appointment for 1/21. On the morning of 1/21 he emailed me and asked to reschedule the meeting for the following Thursday - which we did - and he never showed, never called, never emailed. I am very disappointed and no longer recommend their services.
Description of Work: Replaced wood fascia under a second story triple window on the front of the house. Repaired one wooden gate and replaced another. Replaced rotten balcony rail with redwood. Prepped everything for paint.

Manly Man relies heavily on the Angie's Message Board for almost all communication but I guess this avoids surprises on both sides and keeps customers from crying foul. Technician showed up on time and was very professional and worked quickly but carefully. Everything met expectations and the few things that didn't were addressed on the spot. Price was fair considering the many hours spent on the job. I easily recommend.
Description of Work: Replace and bring to current the plumbing / P-Traps / Pipes / Valves beneath 3 bathroom sinks. Replace Hot / Cold water hardware in kitchen + install water filter.

We just wanted to take a moment and commend your representative on his excellent service. He went to our home to take measurements and provide further details on some work we are planning to do. His knowledge, attention to detail and insight were helpful and refreshing change. If this is the level of service we should anticipate when doing business with your company we look forward to the opportunity to do so.

As a small operation there are times of the year when we are completely overwhelmed by the work load, and yes, I sometimes forget to respond to every call. I am sorry for this, but reality is reality. The primary service area for my business is the South Bay from El Segundo, South to San Pedro and Long Beach, east from the beach to the 110. We do take jobs on when we can outside of our primary area, but it is a matter of priority and timing. My apologies for missing the call.

Absolutely perfect! Here's the deal, because he has a 2 hr. min. you need to collect a couple of things, a 'honey-do' list. If not, then he becomes expensive at a $100 min.

My dog put his very large head through the back picket fence of the property I rent. Jason of The Manly Man Handyman replied to my email on a Sunday night and arrived at my house the next morning. He looked over the damage and discussed what would be needed and gave me a VERY reasonable estimate. Jason arrived the next morning and got right to work. His estimate was spot on and he not only repaired the fence but he reinforced it against my dog's giant, very hard head, which I really appreciate. The stronger the fence, the healthier the relationship with one's neighbors. I'm really happy with his work and Jason's friendly nature. I would definitely use him again anytime I need a handyman.

Luis was on time and had all the equipment and tools needed. He looked at everything that needed to be done first, then went ahead and drilled the holes, put anchors and screws in and hung the two mirrors and the one picture frame. He measured everything perfectly before drilling the holes. It all looks awesome. I'm so glad the magazine holders are finally up. He even gave me some advice on how to get the hinges off my cabinet doors and what shelves to get for my walk-in closet. That will be the next job and I'll definitely hire Luis / the Manly Handy Man again.
Description of Work: Hung two mirrors, two magazine holders, and a picture frame> He also drilled a bunch of holes in the ceiling of the balcony for hooks and put two hooks in the right spot within the apartment (also ceiling).

Very poor customer service. The owner never returns calls and only communicates only via texting. He seems to only want things in writing. The work was not the cleanest and up to what I expected. The owner redid the quote without even seeing what was needed...and then wasn't very firm on the price. With so many handymans out there, find someone else and stay away from this company causing problems.

Response from The Manly Man Handyman
This is a "bait and switch" client. I wrote up an estimate, but when my guy showed up the client had "found" a lot more work, which he then complained about having to pay for even though the bid he accepted states very clearly that all additional work will be paid for at our standard hourly rate. My worker was told at the end of the two day project that his work was fantastic and they were very happy, right up to the time to pay the balance, at which time the work was "Substandard". After giving the client a significant discount he continued to complain about the price until I just gave in and split the difference with him. He also fails to mention that his representative asked my worker if he could remodel their master bathroom, "off the books", in effect stealing from the company, as I had already given the client a formal bid for that project also. He was also, during the same time frame, asking if my guy could begin working on the bathroom, without having accepted the bid and signing a contract. The Manlyman Handyman is not just a handyman service, but a full service, licensed, bonded, and insured General Contracting company. The law requires everything be in writing. Ask any contractor that's had trouble with clients ending in arbitration and you hear about how they didn't keep track of their paperwork. As for his claims about not knowing what was needed? My worker is a retired contractor with 27 years in the business, and I had pictures sent to me by the client himself! As the saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words." My recommendation to all the other contractors and handymen out there is to beware of this client. He's trouble for professional tradesmen.

I guess I should have trusted those who said he did not show up. He committed to being here then did not show up and never returned my phone calls.
