Payless Handyman

Service was excellent. Les provides quality work and is very knowledgeable overall in many repair facets. You get what you pay for and they pride themselves on doing the job right the first time. Les is always available and gets back to you quickly, especially if you don't mind texting which is my preferred way to communicate. He was efficient and cleaned up after himself. I will use his company again for sure. This is my first company used from Angie's List and I was pleased with the results. This company is top notch. Thank you!!

Les was terrific. Showed up right on time. Analyzed the situation and quickly repaired the problem. All of that was amazing by itself, but what really stunned me was he didn't want to charge me. I insisted, and Les will be my go to guy from here on out. Thanks again Lex!!!

Les was explained the job completely and did QUALITY work. Will definetly use him again.

Les was thorough, prompt and professional. I asked for revisions to the quote and he promptly provided them. We opted to go with another contractor, but if we need handyman services I would definitely call Payless again. Our decision to go with another contractor had nothing to do with any lacking from Les.

He is courteous and professional. He is good to communicate what needs to be done prior to doing it. He sticks to his price. I would recommend him to any one. He was good to also let me know if something was beyond his handyman expertise.

My husband and I were very pleased with the service, knowledge, and professionalism that we received from this provider in particular Les who came out and fixed two doors for us. The prices were reasonable and this company stresses on doing business the honest way. It was refreshing to have someone fix our doors, answer our questions, and offer any additional help we may need. Les was a complete professional and I would not only highly recommend this business, but we will be using them again in the future. We just bought our first house and have found the handyman we will use from now on. Thank you Angie's List for having this company on your site. We really scored finding these guys!!

Les was great... quick response, met me at the apartment within 24 hours. Very reasonable. I will use Les again at the new house I just moved into as well as promote his service to those I know. Thank you

I think it was the dad (Les) that came out. He really took his time measuring the layout and explaining what he'd do. He must have figured I wasn't willing to spend an appropriate amount of money for the job because it was a flip, so he never got back to me with the quote. As it turned out, I ended up going with the highest priced flooring contractor who quoted me because I had confidence in him. As for Payless, I gave them a 'C' overall because non-responsive contractors (even unlicensed ones) are the average out there. 2/5/2014 - Update I had no idea he was going to mail the quote. I gave Les my card so he'd have my email. My office is 50 miles away, and I seldom go there. I was in a hurry to get the work done so the US Mail doesn't really make sense. None the less, the project was completed and the house was sold. Under the circumstances, I may call them out again on the next job

Showed up at the scheduled time and completed the job is a timely manner. I will use his services again.

All went according to plan, Les was very detailed in his repairs and his work really made a huge difference in our mold problem. He is very professional and detailed in his explanation of the needed repairs. Would highly recommend and will be using Les and his crew very soon.

They took their time and were very meticulous with the work. After they were done, they double checked the repairs. They were trustworthy, did a great job, and did terrific work.

Les came out to review what needed to be done. He was a wealth of knowledge, provided me with things to think about, great options, ways to save money and a lot to think about in resolving the water damage in my kitchen. He promptly provided an estimate and timeline for doing the work discussed. Appreciate his time and professionalism.

Ever see a garage and cringe from the exposed beams and just how dingy it looks due to being unfinished? Yeah, that was my garage! Now it is bright and cheery (due to the sunny yellow paint I picked), but most of all it looks great because it is finished and actually has walls! Les, the owner, and his sons came on Wednesday the 25th and were totally done with my garage and painting of my exterior trim on my house by Sunday the 29th. Extremely professional all the way through the process, and it was actually his professionalism that made me decide to go with his company versus others we received quotes from. Was very informative, explained the different texture options and thus price options and was still willing to negotiate prices with me before starting the work. First day I came home and was shocked I had walls, they literally got the garage enclosed in a few hours! As I was walking into my front door, I realized that his crew actually filled in the gaps in the wood on the trim, he was making sure it wouldn't be just scraped and painted but look good! Very impressed! Next day I didn't see too much difference, but him explaining the process ahead of time, I knew not too since they needed to do the plaster in stages. Third day, the walls were textured and the trim was starting to get some paint, was really looking good! Fourth day, the garage was painted and the trim was totally done, love how nice it came out, big difference from what it was before! Fifth and final day, the garage paint was finished off and Les' son even helped me to move appliances back in place and then swept up. They didn't leave any mess behind, and the work overall is just stunning. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat!

They were very good. They are very professional. They are good with contacting you back, that type of stuff. They explain everything. They are very nice people.

This was a very good experience. Les made sure everything was plumbed correctly and straight. He made sure everything was done the right way. Exceptional!!

As this was a small fast fix we agreed he would do this job soon. Several days later I arrived home to see the gate was worked on. While it wasn't as aligned as we hoped for it was meeting much better and locking much more securely. This was what we needed to keep our pet in and make it workable for our Dad. When Les came by for his check he explained that when it's perfectly aligned the gate can't be opened all the way, due to the slight slope of the yard. Remembering the way we open it to drive in and out he knew that wouldn't do but adjusted it to be more secure. I am a happy customer.

It started very promising after he intial conversation but fell apart right after. I guess Les and company doesn't need new customers.

I hired Payless to essentially re-do the work of a previous handyman. Les and his sons did fantastic work that included almost 500 feet of baseboards, new door and door frame, tile and grout repair, and a few other misc tasks. The quality of work was stellar. I am very pleased with their attention to detail. Les is a great guy, personal, professional, and honest. On several occasions, he recommended less expensive alternatives than what I requested. His prices were very competitive and fair, especially when factoring in the quality of work. I will use them every opportunity I can.

I met with Les, he was very professional and listened thoroughly as I went through the house and showed him what I wanted to have done. He talked me through different options for saving money and other important factors I hadn't even considered when planning this out. He also walked through the house with me and let me ramble about future repairs I might want and was very helpful with that as well. Overall the experience meeting with him was great but I did decide to go with another handyman service for the job, as the estimate cost I got from Les was more than in my budget for that particular project. It was a joy meeting with him and I would definitely call them in the future for estimates on other projects I have in mind.

Les responded immediately to my Angie's List inquiry and came promptly to provide my estimate. The project was completed on-time and on-budget with exceptional skill and attention to detail. The gate was not easy to do. Les provided suggestions and used creativity to get my goal accomplished. Despite the fact that he had to return more than one time to complete the installation, he did not over charge me or lower the quality of his work. I have a brother who is a master cabinet maker of some renown on the east coast. This is mentioned this only to say that I have a good sense of what comprises quality workmanship. Les and his team are a treasure and I am very glad I discovered them.

Payless Handyman showed up when they promised and always left our home clean and in order. We were so impressed with their professionalism and honesty. We appreciated the time that was taken to make sure we understood the outcome of the choices we were making in regards to cabinets , flooring, counter tops, lighting and appliances. The end result is that we have an amazingly beautiful kitchen thanks to Payless Handyman!

We had a fabulous experience with this remodel! There were no "short cuts" with this remodel! Every morning, Les would go over what projects that Skyler and he were going to accomplish that day and then in the afternoon, Les would recap what had been completed. We always felt like we were kept "in the loop" as to what was going on. When the kitchen was gutted, the team was able to save our old cabinets and they were repurposed. In addition, our Handyman Team were able to keep the dust down, and so we were able to stay in the house. We found out that there was a lot of engineering that goes into hanging cabinets, and the Payless Team were very precise with their measurements, and all the cabinets were installed to perfection. The same was true for the countertops, and tile. Payless Handyman is truly commitment to excellence in all aspects of this remodel. The job was completed in a timely manner and came in under budget. We would definitely recommend the Payless Handyman Team to people who are looking for contractors who are high performing, clean and careful, personable, able to communicate, and have and excellent work ethic. We will be hiring them again in the New Year! Martin and Barbara Whitney October 30, 2012

He is very friendly and came out on a Saturday to look at the project and then had the work done by Sunday. They seem to be a very honest company and their prices are competitive with other companies that I looked at hiring. I also had them come out to put in a fire door in my home recently.

I am on a fixed income and they were willing to work with my budget. Their attention to detail is just amazing. They are very meticulous, do beautiful work and are very nice to work with. They even called me when I got home from my surgery to check and see if I needed anything. I wouldn't think of using anyone else. They really went above and beyond.

Les was one of the most informative & genuine men I have ever had the pleasure to have come to my home in a time of need. Our washing machine & dishwasher were draining all over our garage floor, this was a nightmare for us. Our 22 year old son's (he passed away quite tragically a few years ago) belongings are stored in the garage & were at risk of being destroyed. I found "Payless Handyman" on here and called, Les the owner answered & was fortunately able (because he's in the middle of a large job, however he had a break) to come by at that time. He noticed that my water heater was leaking & told me that those types of pipes tend to do that., he also told me that my water heater should have had a drip pan installed under it, as a result the wood platform is wet, it would have cost $15. (Note to self: ALWAYS use Angie's List!). Next the drain: he snaked it, but the clog was farther out than the 20-feet his snake would go. He cleaned everything up and when I asked him how much his charge would be, he said, "nothing." Wow! And he gave me a great referral to a plumber to clean the drain & told me exactly what to to tell them when they came out. Les called me later to set up a time to resolve the water heater problem. Payless Handyman is a Godsend to this older disabled woman whose husband is never home long enough to do anything, and my 2 girls & I are in definite need of a good, reliable & trustworthy handyman that runs his business with integrity.
