It's been too long for me to recall all of the details of the services or the exact cost, but I will never forget the customer service. This is how companies should be run. The office was fantastic. The handyman they sent out was fantastic. They were quite expensive, but I'm inclined to say they were worth it. They certainly went the extra mile to make working with them a positive experience.

Gary was my service technician and he was fantastic. He showed up on time and was completely professional. He took the time to explain everything to me as he was progressing as well as why some of my projects were too audacious to complete. Having never hired a handyman before, I was a little nervous, but I found the experience to be so pleasant that I have already started looking around my house for more projects that I have been meaning to tackle.
Description of Work: I had Gary mount a television in my bedroom and create a new electrical box inside the closet so that the wires would not be seen. He also patched the hole that was created. He also checked out some electrical wiring that unfortunately could not be fixed. Finally, he checked some plastering I had on the outside of my building to ensure a leak was not coming from it.

Handyman gave us a detailed quote right away for our kitchen repair from a water leak. We called them and they came out to assess details of what they needed to start work on Saturday and started work on Monday and were done on Thursday. They were here on time and ready to work from 8-4. The team of guys were very efficient and knew what they were doing. We have an old house and they needed to deal with large heavy cabinets. They helped us understand what was needed to upgrade our re-installation of our kitchen. After waiting for 1-1/2 months to get this done, we were thrilled. I would use them again.
Description of Work: The job was to put our kitchen back together after a water leak in the ceiling. Rebuilding our kitchen from the studs. The job entailed reinstalling our upper cabinets (heavy), electrical, instillation, drywall, prime walls & ceiling for painting.

When I spotted a rust colored stain emerging from a newly plastered wall near the corner of my shower stall, I feared the worst - was it a leak from pipes somewhere in the wall? Or was there a hole in the shower's grout that was causing it? I found Mr. Handyman on Angie's list and bought a "big deal" (four hours for the price of three, $365). While there were cheaper handyman listings, none of them included plumbing - and I wanted someone who could diagnose and fix the problem. I call Christie at Mr. Handyman Monday afternoon, she booked an appointment for me the next morning between 8:00 and 8:30. Gary arrived promptly at 7:59 am, and by 8:30 am had diagnosed the problem (the wire mesh in the wall plaster was slightly rusted and the new plaster had drawn the moisture out - making the watermark that I thought indicated a leak). Good news, there were no leaks anywhere, either from the tile grout or the pipes. Better news, I still had more than 3 hours of Handyman services to use up. It's amazing how many household repairs I'd put off dealing with. Gary started by replacing my broken garbage disposal (it also needed new wiring because the original was illegally wired). Then he replaced a window screen, replaced the rubber flapper in the toilet to stop it from running, fixed a closet drawer and repaired a broken hat stand. He was so knowledgeable and efficient and, well, HANDY, that he got through my entire to-do list all within the four hours provided in my big deal coupon. Overall, I had great experience with this company. I will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: I needed a handyman with plumbing expertise to find the source of a leak causing a water spot in my bathroom wall near the shower.

The handyman they sent did a good job completing a number of small jobs. I did want some shelves made and wasn't prepared with the plywood. Don't assume the handyman will carry everyghing (e.g. plywood). Once I brought the supplies, he did a great job putting up some shelves. All in all, a good experience.

The handyman arrived on time, was pleasant and professional. He drilled into the door to install a deadbolt that we purchased and it looks great. He was quick and cleaned up afterwards. We had some time on the hour that we paid for so he attached some loose floor trim for us at no extra charge. We plan to use Mr. Handyman again.

I was given a 'float' appointment which means I had a larger window of time that they would fit me into, but it would cost me less if the work could be done in 1/2 hr. The office called when the handyman was about 20 minutes from my house, and he arrived as promised. He got right to work and finished the job within the time frame. He was professional, pleasant, and seemed to be very knowledgeable. This was a 'test' to see how comfortable I felt with this company. I will be starting my list of repairs that need to be done and will definitely be using them again in the future.
Description of Work: Our front door was sticking and the deadbolt would not completely latch. Also, the weather stripping at the bottom of the door was not sealing well, allowing cold air in and warm air out. Gary moved the hardware of the deadbolt slightly to allow the bolt to fit and latch completely. He also adjusted the weatherstripping to seal the door. We scheduled a 1/2 hr time slot and he was able to complete all the work within that time frame so as to avoid any extra charges.

I contacted Mr. Handyman using contact number listed on Angie's List. The office returned my call promptly and followed-up with me several times until we were able to schedule the work at a time that fit my schedule. On the day of service the office called me to confirm the appointment arrival window and called again when the handyman was on his way to my house. The handyman arrived within the promised arrival window. He worked quickly, efficiently, and professionally. I was highly satisfied with the quality of work performed and impressed with the quick service. This was important especially since Mr. Handyman charges both a per-job fee, and a half-hourly rate. The Handyman seemed to fly through the job and did it very well.
Description of Work: A handyman patched an approximately 6" x 6" hole in drywall and cleared a small clog in a bathroom sink drain.

Gary showed up on time and completed all the work I needed done. He worked steadily with no supervision and kept me informed as he moved from task to task.
Description of Work: Gary, the handyman they sent, was perfect! He met and far exceeded my expectations. Everything I wanted done got done within the four hours he was here. He installed a wood bathroom cabinet, assembled an IKEA 3-drawer dresser (amazing amount of parts), assembled an IKEA chair (too much of a challenge for me), drove to a hardware store to pick up a security screen door and lockset I had ordered over the telephone and installed it. He also moved a towel rack in the bathroom to a different wall and caulked around the bathroom and kitchen counters. He cleaned up after himself as he moved from one task to the next. I couldn't be more pleased. He was professional in his demeanor. He worked steadily throughout the four hours, never slacking off. I was very comfortable with him in my home and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced handyman. Loretta Hermosa Beach CA

I had a situation where I had to get my locks replaced. The new locks did not match the holes in the door, so I contacted Handyman.com. Due to my schedule at the time, I was not flexible enough to be "on call", so I scheduled a morning appointment. When you schedule an appointment, you have to pay for a block of time. Once finished with the locks, there was still extra time left, so he patched up a hole in my wall where there was some water damage. I'm very pleased with the work and would definitely call them again.

Their scheduler was successfully persistent at arranging an appointment that fit our immediate needs despite their heavy workload. The Handyman arrived right on time and took care of all the work we had lined up within the contracted hours. His professionalism and positive personality were exemplary. The Angie's List Deal that they offered saved us 25% on the cost of 4 hours of work. We look forward to using their services under similar deals in the future.
