I had bought a new garbage disposal through Amazon. When Michael unpacked it, he saw that it wouldn't fit the existing piping because it had glued joints. He said he wasn't qualified to do piping so I'd have to get a plumber to accommodate the one I'd bought. I told him I had Amazon Prime and could return the one I'd ordered free, so he offered to go to Home Depot to buy one that would fit, recommending the mid-priced one. He wasn't gone long, and got the new one installed promptly. His rate is $100 minimum, and though it took somewhat longer than that with the trip to Home Depot, he only charged me for an hour, and didn't mark up the cost of the garbage disposal (he gave me the receipt). He was also very pleasant, polite, and professional. I am very glad to have found such a good handyman!

It went very quickly. He came twice: once to take the old one out so Home Depot would take it away, and once to install the new one. He was very nice and did a great job. It's been quite a while now, and I haven't had any problems.

This would have been the second job I would have had Michael perform on my rental property. The initial appointment was cancelled because he needed to finish a bigger job first. The second appt, and first rescheduled appointment was a last minute cancellation, was understandable, and I won't go into that. We promptly rescheduled for a third time. Unfortunately after two hours of no show, my tenants who work nights informed me that they could not stay up any longer and needed to go to bed. I texted him, and he said he mistakenly booked the job in his calendar for the wrong day. I'm thinking maybe this isn't the right time for him to be working on my property.
Description of Work: After two reschedules, and one no show, I chose not to hire him after all.

I cannot dispute this client's claim. I mistakenly noted our rescheduled appointment in the wrong day on my Goggle calendar. My mother has been in the hospital and there are many distractions right now. This client was very understanding with the initial reschedule, but has chosen to slam me this time. This is unfortunate. I believe my track record of reviews based on my actual work is more valuable to Angie's List members than reading about a no show while I was immersed in a family crisis.

Michael did an initial assessment and determined that work needed to be done on the shut off valve before he could replace faucets ... he advised me to call a plumber. After the plumber completed this work, Michael returned and replaced 2 very old faucets ... one for the kitchen sink and the other over the laundry tub. Because of the age of the faucets and my house, he found replacement faucets at New Home Builders (not big box stores). He was neat and professional.
Description of Work: Michael Feliciano replaced two leaking faucets ... one in the kitchen and the other over the laundry room tub.

Through e-mails, I explained exactly the work I needed and, when asked if this fell within the scope of work he does and if he could help, he said he could do the job. The work involved high ceilings for which I told him he could use my telescope ladder or he could rent a ladder of his choice, which ever he preferred. I adjusted my schedule and reserved the day for him. Needless to say, I was thoroughly disappointed when he called two hours before his expected arrival to tell me that he was on another job, aka doing something more important, and needed to cancel and reschedule. Perhaps my job was menial in his eyes despite my willingness to pay the full price for his service. However, an appointment is just that...time reserved specifically for you. The day wasted, I elected not to reschedule and run the risk of him cancelling again. I don't have that kind of time. It appears Michael does good work based on the reviews; that is, when he shows up. From my experience, if you have time to waste on last minute cancellations and reschedules then Michael is your guy. Otherwise, look for someone else who respects others' time and keeps appointments.
Description of Work: I contacted Michael, the sole proprietor, via email on March 10th based on the positive ratings on Angie's List and scheduled an appointment for 3pm on March 17th. Michael called at 1:15pm on March 17 to cancel.

Response from Happy House Handyman Service
I am saddened to read the inaccurate nature of this review. I called this client to inform her that I was on a job where I had discovered more issues than initially scheduled for and that they would need to be dealt with in order for the client's sink to be returned to operating status. I emphasized in my message and on the phone to her that I had someone's kitchen sink torn apart and that I felt it was very important to stay on this task, rather than drop everything to install her lightbulbs and light fixture. I am guessing that she would appreciate the same level of quality care if I was working on her kitchen sink, and that she would not appreciate me leaving a critical job unfinished. It should be noted that I presented the option of coming to her house the very next day to deliver my services - She declined and informed me that the next time she would be available would be on the 28th of March. It sounds to me like this job was not that important to her, or she might have switched some things around to have me out the next day as offered. I informed her that I respected her decision to decline alternative dates and apologized for the inconvenience. I stand by my decision to finish the critical job that I was on, so that my client with a house full of children would not have to wait 24 hours to have her kitchen sink back in working order.

He was always quick to respond to emails and text messages. He showed up on time, and although I wasn't there to meet him at the property, I have not had a report from my tenants about a recurring leak. Emailed receipt breakdown: $100 for the two-hour minimum, and $20.19 for the parts and fittings.
Description of Work: Rental Repair: I had observed a leak in my front yard coming from main sprinkler line, and water leaking from the sprinkler head onto the sidewalk. I corresponded with Michael to fix the leaks and he ended up replacing a sprinkler control valve and tightening a loose pipe to fix the other leak.

In my garage, I needed deep shelving to organize my camping gear and other items that I was storing there. The shelves turned out great and meet my needs perfectly. They are incredibly solid and can stand up to the heaviest gear. The job was completed quickly, and he even started filling up the shelves with the stuff that was piled around the garage. In my kitchen, I had a very odd opening in the end of the built-in breakfast bar/counter that divides the kitchen from the dining room. Michael designed an amazing slide-out spice cabinet that is better than I could have imagined. It has a shallow shelf on top for all my spices, a medium shelf in the middle for oils, vinegars and similar bottles and a deep shelf on the bottom that I found works great for liquor bottles and other larger bottles like cooking oil. It not only looks like it was always part of the kitchen, but it's very heavy-duty, meaning I never have to worry about what I put in the shelves. I couldn't be happier.

He was a nice guy, he showed up, and he told me that he was able to do the job over the weekend. When I showed up, it was his house, and then he called me up, and said that he couldn't do the job, so I had to go and pick up my stuff.

Response from Happy House Handyman Service
This was an unfortunate case - I was clear with the client that I was extremely busy with projects, and that I do not normally do cabinet refinishing projects at my home, because I wasn't set up for it. There needed to be drying time and multiple coats, and a space set up for protecting the items from weather. I was game but reluctant - I encouraged him to seek a cabinet shop but finally agreed to take the project and try squeezing it in. There were multiple delays because of the wind and rain in early Fall. I was surprised to find that the client had a tighter timeline than originally discussed, and with the weather delays, I could not accommodate him. Sorry this did not work out better for both of us.

Michael agreed to an estimated price prior to doing the work and actually completed the work in a shorter period of time than estimated and he reduced the estimated charges to match the actual hours charged, saving me over $100.00 from what I was prepared to pay. I found Michael to be professional as well as personable and will definitely use him again for any handyman chores around my home.

The cooler.
Description of Work: I paid him $223. not including material. First of all my deck is only 2 years old and the wood isn't dried out. It has been painted every year since I had it built ( this spring being the third painting). I have the paper work to prove it. Check out the pictures. MR Michael Feliciano was stomping around because he was mad he didn't want to do the work. The job wasn't a cake walk. The swamp cooler is up very high 10 feet and not easy to work on by yourself. He went stomping down the stairs and stepped on the very edge of the step and between his anger and his weight it broke off. Nothing was said because I didn't want him to be any angrier than he already was. I just assumed he would take care of it. When he never offered to replace it and left to pick up pump at the store. I thought I would call ( he didn't call me ) to make sure he had the measurements to get the wood to fix the step. He didn't I had to get measurements for him. He assured me in our first conversation on the 30 the of March he could fix the cooler. This unit has been cleaned with calcium deposit cleaner and sprayed down with the hose and water every year since I bought it in 2008. I never told him it was 5 years old like he says I said. Why would I say that. I have the paper work to prove it!! I haven't lived in this house for 5 years. I did clean the filter, while he was at the store it was on the ground and I could do that while he was gone. I never said I would get up on the ladder and clean the hoses. I was paying him to do the work. He didn't run the cooler. I was the one in the trailer turning it off and on for him. Do you really think he would stand there for 30 min. like he says. Really!! He said it was working and because I couldn't see that far up I had to take his word it. I did turn it on but with it being so cool out side you didn't know if it was just the cool air the fan was bring in. Our first contact was when I called him on a Sun the 29 the it was warm 84.9 degrees and the first time I had turned on the unit this year. He came out on Mon the 30 the and the weather had cooled down 60 degrees in the AM when he got there. The week it was a cool week never getting over 80 degrees so it never went on. On Saturday the 6 the it went to 87 degrees ( this weather info can all be found on the web ) and that is the first time I called him to have him come back out. Then called again Sunday then again on Mon never got an answer. A while after I called on Mon he called me back. I told him I could hear pump was running but the air was hot so it wasn't working. That is when he said he would do nothing about it, it was now my problem. That is when I got a little hostile because he could have said something about coming out to look at it. After my friend and I took it apart I knew why he didn't want to come back out. He didn't do the job right in the first place. One of my friends said he would come out and take a look. When we took off the cover the hose wasn't hooked up to the unit so it wasn't circulating water. There is no way it was hooked up and working when he left. It isn't something one person could do. It took two people, one on the side where the hose needs to be hooked and one in front holding the unit out a little so the other person could hook up the hose. being up 10 feet on a ladder. When we put it back together it was heavy and not easy for two people. When Mr. Michael Feliciano put it up it was wet and full of water from when I sprayed it down with the hose. Really he says he did it buy himself? 3' X 4' foot filter full of water.( look at the pictures ). Yes the hose was filled with debris. There was no way it was working with all the debris in it. The tray was clean. All we did was clean out the hose and connect the hose to the filter cover and put the cover back on the unit. It now runs great. I was paying him to do the work and I wasn't getting up on the ladder. I am 55 and don't need any broken bones. But in the end I had to get up on the ladder and help my friend because it took 2 people to put it back together. Look at the pictures. I am writing this review so other people don't have to go through what I had to and the $ he took from me. He thinks that because he came out here and did a bad job he should get paid. Looks like he's right. But we will see in small claims because that is where I am going to have to take this matter.

We needed a door replaced in our home. This was a door to our outside patio from the garage. The original homeowners used an old interior door, and it did not stand up well to weather, nor did it have a proper door frame. We called Michael at Happy House for this after hearing about him from a friend. After telling Michael what we wanted, he took care of everything. He purchased the door and the frame. He had the old one out and new one installed in a few hours, including the deadbolt and lock. Plus no mess left behind. Michael was friendly and answered all our questions. He gave us a fair price and we would definitely use him again.

This was kind of an odd job, since I was doing a lot of the remodeling work myself and just needed a hand with some of the cabinet and countertop work that I don't have experience with. Michael was willing to work with me and was not judgmental about the strange state that he found my kitchen in. The work that he did was performed neatly and cleanly, and he cleaned up after himself completely, even cleaning up the dusty mess I had created in the meantime. The cabinets that he installed are nicely done, the doors hang correctly and close neatly. That's a tough job in my kitchen since the cabinets are all frameless. Overall I was very pleased with the work that he did and would be glad to have him work in my home again.
Description of Work: I was in the middle of remodeling my kitchen myself, and I needed help with some work that was beyond my capabilities. Michael helped me by taking out and reconfiguring several cabinets, cutting to fit and reinstalling cabinet doors, and constructing a counter top ready for me to apply tile to. This work was done over the course of two days.
