MArco was well aware of my urgent situation and not only decided to cancel last minute, but he didn't let me know and waited for me to reconfirm. . Here is a textual copy of the text messages sent the day before the appointment to help avoiding any misunderstanding. -HI Carlo this is Marco good morning just checking can we see the job today at 7pm or you want to let it go for tomorrow at 7 pm as well? -Good morning Marco, I did the appointment with the tennant for tomorrow at 6 as we originally agreed, let me know if this still ok with you. Thanks -Are we still ok for tomorrow at 6? -Hi Carlo I just took a job that is gonna take me 2 or 3 week from next Monday. I dont know if you can wait really sorry I can't attend the appointment. Tomorrow -So last week I told you I had urgent things that have to be fixed and I waited for you since we agreed on the appointment for tomorrow, and I did an appointment with my tennant at 6 as we agreed, less than 24hrs prior the appointment not only you where unable to be kind enough to let me know and not wait until I contact you, but you took another job that is going to take 3 weeks, I am just so glad I was unable to find out the degree of profesionalism you have before even starting to work with you. -Very good Carlo This client came before you I am very professional attending. Who came first then you if feel bad for this My apologies But I am so thank full you take me under consideration. To do this job I hope you can understand if not really sorry Best regards Marco M
Description of Work: I contacted the provider Marco and explained the urgent situation so he gave me an appointment for about 5 days later, I contacted my tenant to set up the appointment, and the day before the appointment I received a message from him asking me if we can move the appointment for that day or leave it for tomorrow, I replied that I did the appointment with my tenant for the following day and asked him to reconfirm, it was not until 8.51 pm that he replied to my message saying that he was not going to be able to attend and that he got another job that was going to take weeks? It would have been nice from him to mention here or when you talk to him that he may get busy any time and might be unable to attend the initial appointment since he have a waiting list, this could be useful specially when you have urgent things that have to be fixed.

Marco and his assistants were fantastic. I had a very specific design in mind for a custom built-in cabinet for my hallway. Marco came by to look at the space and discuss the plan I had and gave me an estimate that evening. We agreed on the price and the very next day he was there with his men and began. I am a very picky person - Marco discussed each step along the way to make sure the project was staying to my liking. He pointed out problems with my original design and offered suggestions to remedy the problems. Long story short the cabinet came out beautifully. The materials are great - the painting is perfect - I couldn't be happier. They were very respectful to my home - the demolition portion of the project was very well done. I have many more projects in mind and Marco is the first person I will call.

Marco showed up right when he said he would. I had him do some minor plumbing and work on my kitchen door and fix the latch on my screen door. The work was top notch and done quickly. He was very helpful and polite the whole time he was here.

From looking at photos of his other jobs, it appears he has some skills, but he could not justify his price, nor could he properly estimate the job so I could use his services without risking throwing too much money into the job.
Description of Work: Provider was unable to provide firm estimates, but merely wanted to charge a daily rate of $400 for himself, with lesser charges for his associates. This amount is way to high for a handyman on a large job such as mine.

Came out and did an estimate. He was friendly and professional. I didn't use him because his price was too high for me. I would use him for another estimate, and if the price was right would hire him for the job.

Marco arrived on time with his helper David. The two worked quickly, efficiently, and cleanly. The first coat of paint didn't have time to dry the first day, so they returned and finished the next day without any complaints. They put all of the trash were I requested and even did a little extra without asking for additional money but I paid them for the work.
Description of Work: The project was to remove 2 metal cabinets, 2 wood cabinets, and a wood shelf in the garage. Then I wanted OSB installed as a paneling with furring strips to cover the seams and the paneling given 2 coats of paint.
Marco is much better than most licensed general contractors. He really cares about doing the job right. He provided a flat rate for labor and provided materials at cost. His estimates as to both time and money were accurate. He arrived on time each and every day and the work progressed without dealy or interruption. He discussed the pros and cons of various materials and construction techniques. Marco is both clever and resourceful - he was able to pull the listing structure into position with little problem. He built temporary walls to hold the structure in place while he worked and reinforced the structurewith better Sampson strong ties and bigger posts and beams. Clean up and haul away of debris was thorough. All and all a good experience working on a steep hillside in Mt. Washington.
Description of Work: Covered patio was listing at least 17 degrees downhill. Marco completely rebuilt the walls which were rotting away from water and dirt and retrofitted the supporting structure-saving the steep pitched roof.
Showed up on time, took care of all the details and cleaned up after... even arranged for the hauling away of construction trash.
Description of Work: Bolstered beams and installed drywall to an unfinished room addition. Excellent work!

I called Marco on a Friday because we had had new counters installed in our kitchen and needed help reconnecting the garbage disposal and putting in new kitchen sink fixtures. He called back on Saturday and apologized for not calling sooner, which I thought was crazy since I had called less than 24 hours earlier on a Friday afternoon. He said he was pretty busy and offered to come by Sunday morning to help us. He showed up right on time, worked hard and even made trip to Home Depot to get the right hoses. He was great and I plan to use him again for handyman work around the house.

Marco arrived on time every day and worked hard to complete his tasks, asking questions if he had any doubts about what we needed to happen. He and his helper were courteous and professional.
Description of Work: Marco installed two new thresholds and shored up a glass entrance door. Our house was built in 1921, so there was a lot of aged materials, which he did dealt with quite well. Also helped me move a couple cabinets into place.

The guy can do everything, although he is not certified. He came out and fixed things that other people had already come out to fix. He is very thorough and doesn't just cover things up. There have been things that he has seen that he has just had to change or fix, because they were wrong that he won't charge me for. He does a very good job. It has been a very good experience. Marco isn't the cheapest, but the work is just fabulous. I think that the quality of work is worth the price. He has a very good eye or art and colors. He is very courteous and not informal. He is very warm and respectful. I can always get a hold of him if I have a question. He always lets me know if a plan changes or something comes up.
