I can’t say enough about Star. He came through for me on a tight schedule and did outstanding work. He was very reasonably priced and I kept his number for future use. You will not be disappointed.

I had a 75-foot wood fence replaced. My fence needed repair and Star came by within 24 hours to address the issue. Star immediately took care of the problem! Professional, timely and conscientious! Truly a company with high integrity which is a rarity these days. I highly recommend for any fencing need.

Washer got hooked up, but had to call a plummer after hours because the taps were leaking anyway when the plummer got here he told me that the taps were loose so he tightened them up and leaking stopped, the dryer vent she wrapped in gorilla duct tape she wanted to come back and reroute my whole vent system by cutting a hole in the side of my house. Which was going to cost me more money. So the dryer vent was left with gorilla tape around she told me not to run it while not home it could catch fire. I am a nice person and believe in giving people a chance but when my Brother in Law came over he told me that I had been taken and i know now that I have. Anyway its an expensive lesson learned

Let me give you a refund. We both agreed that your dryer duct was a temporary solution because it was installed improperly before, sorry you feel like you’ve gotten taken, it was a temporary fix until we finish the project on Monday which you canceled. I will be happy to give you a refund if you feel like you’ve gotten taken, you agreed to a two hour service call minimum, and after coming to your house for the service call, we agreed that it would be better to put your vent in a proper location. Let me give you a refund

I initially spoke with this company regarding a repair on two panes of glass, one in a window and one in a door. The person I spoke with informed me that maybe he wouldn't be repairing the glass in the door, maybe we'd just replace the door. He wanted me to pay him to come to my house and assess the situation and decide on a course of action. I didn't particularly like this idea, so I decided to allow this individual to install some shelving for me instead. I figured this would give me an opportunity to see how he worked, and he could also take a look at the glass without me having to pay him for maybe doing work, maybe not. He agreed with this plan and made sure I agreed to pay him for two hours' work when he came out. After I got off the phone with him, I texted him to ask if he was insured. He told me he was, and he had a business license. Then he told me he was an LLC, and I didn't have to worry about liability. Of course, an LLC means that if he's sued, then his personal assets are protected. It doesn't have anything to do with limiting my liability for any injuries he might sustain on my property. I asked him if he would supply me with proof of insurance. He acted as if I'd asked him for his SSN and his mother's maiden name, and told me he only discloses this information if there is a problem. When there is a problem, of course, is not the time to find out a person doesn't carry insurance or doesn't carry enough insurance. Angie's List states in their FAQ: "You should always verify that the contractor has insurance before working with them. Ask to see a Certificate of Insurance and call to make sure the policy is current and has enough coverage for your project." This company may or may not carry insurance, but if you're concerned about protecting your property and assets, you might want to check for yourself. This gentleman took offense when I asked and advised me to find another contractor for my job. I took his advice. I found a handyman that did carry insurance and charged the same hourly rate as this company. Insurance isn't only for general contractors; any person doing business with the public should have it.

I am so sorry that I offended you so much that you took the time to type a paragraph about my business practices. I would offer to make this right with you, but I don’t know how to make this right seeing I’ve never met you and we’ve never done business together. It’s disappointing that you gave my company a d without finding out how I work. This is mainly because I choose not to serve you. It’s my choice that I didn’t want to give you my insurance policy number, But I was doing this to protect my own interest, as you could have potential filed a false claim against me.I’m happy to serve your needs in the future going forward. I apologize, but my company policies are set in place to protect myself and to protect my clients. I appreciate your consideration, and your criticism. I look forward to taking this encounter And using it to better serve my customers in the future. I hope you find someone to provide the services you are looking for. Have a great day! Jesus loves you!

Project went very well. I was in need of some general labor help when I hired Kevin to help. I was amazed how much he already knew about home repair and general handyman services. He helped to rewire much of the bathroom project and needed zero intervention from myself. What a pleasant experience to have someone that actually knew what he was doing. I highly recommend Kevin for any scope of work. He is very knowledgeable, responsible, and dependable
