Henrik did an excellent job from start to finish! He explained beforehand what he intended to do - go under the house and construct a vent from the dryer to the outside since the previous vent had ompletely disintegrated. He was done within two hours, everything cleaned up and dryer put back to original position. We will definitely call Mr. Handyman again when we have projects around the house that are too big for us to handle.
Description of Work: Mr Handyman's representative, Henrik, had to install a new dryer vent under the house, as well as, a flange at the terminus where the the vent arrives at the outside. He constructed it out of parts he acquired at Home Depot on the way to the job.

I asked Leon to do certain things, clean out the dressing rooms and shower in the back yard near the pool, replace the air flow stop for the dishwasher, set up the umbrellas and lounge chairs for the summer, adjust the side gate so that is opens properly, etc. He did almost everything I asked. He had to buy some tools and equipment for the repairs. He was gone a really long time on my payment time. I had to call the operator at Handyman to locate him and he returned right after I called. That was my only compliant. Overall, he did a good job, nothing that has to be redone. One omission was to clean out a rat infested room in the back garden. I thought he or his partner had done it but discovered this week that it was unfinished. The only reason I won't use them again, as the work quality was fine, is the price. Way too high. Janice Roosevelt Gerard
Description of Work: Leon, from Mr. Handyman was a good worker. Everything he did, he did well. He did not complete everything that I needed to be done because the price for hourly work was too high. I don't think the amount of work being done was worth $800. I was told that they had a special program to have an assistant come at 1/2 price to help with the work. I misunderstood. When he came, I didn't know I was being charged for 2 people. Leon was very polite, professional, a good worker but his company charges too much. I would prefer to use a handyman who is more reasonable. Janice Gerard

Response from Mr. Handyman Serving Beverly Hills & Hollywood
We are happy to hear how pleased this client was with our technician's work. As we just received this review today, we are calling the client this morning to see if any work was left undone for the estimate we provided. If it was, we will be completing that work as promised. As we do with all of our clients, we called the next day to see how the work at the home went, but this client never called us back, which unfortunately left us unable to help if there was a problem. We understand that homeowners are used to paying very little for a handyman. Unfortunately there is little professionalism, security, guarantee, or quality in the world of handymen. We are different. Unfortunately it does cost us more to provide our clients with technicians with no less than 15 years of experience, a 100% guarantee, an office staff to handle scheduling, questions, and concerns, a contractor's license, liability and workers comp insurance, health insurance to our employees, clean uniforms and vans, and all the other things that makes our service the best service to use for your most valuable asset -- your home. Our repeat rate continues to be 70% for many good reasons. The same reasons our Angie's List rating is an A.

We would like to thank this client very much for using our services and rating us highly. We are a bit disappointed that we received a B rating overall when Quality and Professionalism were both rated As. In our view, price is important, and we feel we provide great value, but price should come second to quality when it comes to repairs in the home, the only physical investment we have that will ever rise in value. But if repairs and renovations are done improperly, it could negatively affect your investment's value. We are not the cheapest repair service, but we are the most valuable since our service comes with the best trained technicians in Los Angeles, a 100% guarantee on our work, a full-staffed office to answer your questions anytime, a contractor's license to protect you from fraud or bad work, and more insurance than the state requires.

They gave me an estimate and a quote. They followed up couple of times, but we were getting some speculate quote so we didn't do anything at that time. Their estimate was for $5000. It was to do a custom book shelf with a ladder. They were prompt and they did their work. They were responsive.

They were excellent. He was very good. Their service was very good. They were great. They were very good and we would use them again for anything for the service they give. The technician that handled it was good. They did the job in a timely manner and everything was fine. There were no complaints about it. Their price was okay. I think they underestimated the price for the job they had to do. We didn’t have to pay more because they underestimated the cost of the job. The technician that we had was very good. There were a lot of different people but the young man that came did a great job. He was very good. We would use their services again in the future.

Had a list of odd jobs it had become obvious I'd never get to myself so I had Mr. Handyman come in to get them done. Nothing too complex, just some plumbing and electrical fixes, but Manfred came in and fixed everything with a speed and ease that I frankly found a little embarrassing. He probably had everything fixed in about the time it would have taken me to gather all the tools I'd need. Very friendly and professional. The confidence in their competence was worth the somewhat higher cost they charge.
Description of Work: Fixed vessel sink in bathroom that was leaky in two places. Fixed dimmer switch that had stopped functioning. Installed threshold between hall carpet and bathroom tile. Fixed non-functioning reverse osmosis water filter.

We really liked the man who came - he was friendly and professional. He explained everything carefully. He examined the jobs we wanted done and gave a new estimate (as opposed to the one estimated over the phone), and we immediately started trimming some of the jobs we planned to have done to save money - what we thought was going to be around 500 was suddenly looking more like 1000-1400. Once we trimmed some of the jobs, he did the remaining work well and quickly. HOWEVER. $110/hour is too much for handyman work (and that's their set rate)!! Not to mention that the hour of him looking around and creating the new estimate was considered work time and cost us 110 bucks. So be it. We're fine with the work he did (we have no problem with the technician - he was great) , but next time I'll use a handyman who works on his own, so that a large company's overhead isn't worked into the price.
Description of Work: We had an interior door fixed/rehinged, an extra power outlet added to a room, and an old thermostat swapped for a new one (that we provided).

Response from Mr. Handyman Serving Beverly Hills & Hollywood
We are, of course, thrilled with the high ratings that this member gave us for our quality, responsiveness, punctuality and professionalism. We are disappointed that he is unhappy with the price, but to make a profit (we have a very low mark-up), we are forced to charge more than a handyman who works from his home with no office support would. As is evidenced by our excellent ratings of nearly all A's, we are a top-notch handyman service, often ranked #1 in the city of Los Angeles. Our technicians have a minimum of 15 years of experiences in many fields, and we hire only the best in Los Angeles. Unfortunately it costs us money to hire the best, carry worker's compensation insurance, maintain vans with the necessary supplies on board, carry more liability insurance than the state requires, keep an office staffed with professionals so our clients never reach an answering machine during business hours, and guarantee our work 100 percent! The VALUE our customers receive for getting the job done right, the first time, on time, and with professionalism, makes them come back time and again. Most of our customers are repeat clients, and we have an A rating on Angie's List. We promise to continue providing the best, most reliable service for your most valuable asset, your home.

Contacted the office of BH Handyman and they scheduled a time for one of their handymen to come out to the house. The handyman they sent was prompt, courteous, and very knowledgeable. He gave me confidence that the information he was giving was accurate, allowing me to make an informed decision on how to proceed. I do think, however, they are on the high side of the ledger when it comes to their fees. I will consider them in the future.
Description of Work: Had a leak in the roof, Beverly Hills handyman came out reviewed the situation explained in detail the problem and than gave me the options to fix it.
They are wonderful. I have planned for them to come again. I spent $1600 on that work. They could not improve. They were on time, professional, told me what they were going to do and cleaned up the next day.

The service was great. The handyman who came to do the work explained everything he would do and came up with a nifty solution for the electrical wires to expedite the work. The pane replacement was of excellent quality. I would hire this company again, but would see if I could buy the supplies myself, as there is a charge for the time spent to get the supplies, as well as a markup on supplies.
Description of Work: I needed some electrical wires capped and hidden in a wall, and a door window pane replaced. The time frame needed to be fast, as the repairs had to be made for a re-fi that was on the verge of funding.

We are very gratified at the member's comments that everything went well. She mentions that the cost was higher than she expected because her home is quiet old, and of course electrical can be a bigger job than expected when the home is old and the wiring below current standards. We do wish the member would not have penalized us with a C because her electrical in her house needed upgrading. In fact, on another report that we received from her, she gave us an "A" overall and a "B" for price. We hate getting a C when we get the job done punctually, professionally and with quality, as this member points out, but we are very gratified that she used us again and gave us an A rating. We thank the member for her review!

we first had a consultation where we shared our design ideas and he provided his thoughts. we had later contact where we exchanged ideas. we eventually came to a design that we were all happy with. when he started working he had good attention to detail and high quality. we also felt he was honest. ultimately we were very happy with the work and although the prices seemed a bit high, if we had gone with someone cheaper i don't know if we would've received the same quality work.

This location of Mr. Handyman was supposed to arrive at my house between 11 AM and 1 PM to assess my kitchen cabinets and give me a bid on some repair work that was needed. At 10:50 AM they called and said they wanted to give me a "heads up" that their rep would be at my house between 3 and 4 PM. It's bad enough that they did not meet their commitment but to call 10 minutes prior to their possible arrival time really was outrageous. They certainly knew long before 10:50 AM that they were not coming as per our agreement. In my opinion, the way the company handled me is a "red flag" as to how their business operates.

We would like to take another opportunity to apologize to this customer for calling ahead to change the appointment time instead of arriving at the earlier appointment time. We have an excellent reputation of being on time (as the other Angie's List reviews attest), but unfortunately sometimes we do have to call a client with an afternoon job to tell them that a morning appointment has been delayed. In this case, we did only find out about the delay at 10:45 AM, and as this customer writes we called 10 minutes before the afternoon window. What we will NOT do, and indeed did not do in this case either, is show up late without calling. We always keep our customers informed, as we did in this case too. But we are sincerely sorry that we disappointed this client.

He arrived on time, was extremely courteous, and highly respectful of my property and possessions. He had been doing handyman work since his college days and was very competent at all tasks required. Although their fees seem high, the work was done so well that I would definitely use them again. Unless you request a different person, the same handyman will come each time--a real plus for continuity!

Sometimes the best example of the integrity of a company is how they handle situations that went a bit wrong. After a very long bathroom remodel (not done by Mr. Handyman), I needed our old door re-hung. Donna Marie sent out a man who was very competent but not clear about giving me a final estimate BEFORE he started the job. Nor was I told that it would be quicker and cheaper to just buy a new door and prefabricated door jam. So I had to send him to Home Depot to buy a few extra pieces of wood and some electrical covers. This drive time was part of their hourly - which isn't cheap. Plus he couldn't put the supplies on my Home Depot card as it's their policy to put supplies on the Mr. Handyman card and charge the customer a pretty hefty surcharge. I was really upset about this. And then, 8-9 hours later, he is still working on the door jam. Hanging the door was costing me close to $1,000.00 and he wasn't even done! I told him to just go and I'd have someone else finish it up. But don't let this discourage you from using this franchise of Mr. Handyman. Donna Maria called the next day to find out how it went and she clearly got an earful from me. She was very apologetic that I didn't get a clear written estimate of the time it would take to hang the old door vs. the time and cost of just buying a brand new one. Then she offered to send another guy out the following day - at no cost - to finish the door and do any small things I needed done. So even though I spent much more than I would have normally the first day, having a guy out here for a few hours for free made up for it. The work quality was excellent and their insistence that I be 100% satisfied with the work and the price and the follow up is why I will use them again. The customer service was excellent and they made it all right in the end.
Description of Work: I needed a door and door jam re-hung and some electrical outlets installed.
