The job went great even with the rotten wood that Bruce found. The best part is that they cleaned up every day when they were done and left no mess.
Description of Work: I hired him before and so had him come back as I needed my deck at the front of my house re-covered with carpeting. Unfortunately, Bruce discovered rotten wood under the decking and the job became much larger. The deck should have been completely replaced, but Bruce, being sensitive to my budget (and I am retired) replaced the bad wood and tiled my decking. I then had him put all new railing. My neighbor was so impressed that he hired Bruce and his son to do several projects at their home. Unfortunately, he is moving to Texas..I have lost the best handyman I ever found.

He showed up and looked at everything, and said would get me the estimate in a couple of days. Nearly a week and a half later still did not get me anything. I called him, but he said he forgot all about me and that he would get it the next day, but that never happened. I called him several days ago, and he said he had forgotten and that he would get me the estimate the next morning. That also never happened. I will save time and effort and never call him again.
Description of Work: Bruce was supposed to give me an estimate to do repairs.

Great...see above. Complete, clean and above what we expected.
Description of Work: I was referred to Bruce and his son to do some remodeling in one of our rental homes. We wanted a good job without sepnding a large amount to remodel the kitchen and bathrooms. We settled on what we felt was a fair price for the work that also included painting the entire inside of the home. THey showed up on time and always cleaned up at the end of every day which pleased our tennants. They finished the job on time. We were very pleased with the completed work and will be using him and his company in the future for our home. We liked the personal attention they gave to our rental and our renters stated they were clean and presentable.

I would not call him again or recommend him. It was a waste of our time and prolonged the time its been broken.
Description of Work: I Called Bruce on Monday. He said he was driving & would call me back in 30 minutes as I lived only a few blocks from his office. After I waited 1 1/2 hours for his call I called him back. He scheduled the estimate for the following day between 5-6pm on a Tuesday. As my husband was doing volunteer service that evening he asked my grown sons to come by & wait with me. Bruce from Cal Tex never showed up. Today is Thursday 3 days later & he has not yet called to apoligize or reshedule. This is my 1st time using Angies list.

My experience with this company was outstanding. We experienced an emergency ruptured toilet lead line that resulted in major water,carpet and wood damage on the upper and lower levels. Bruce and his son were fantastic. They always reported on and were professional and friendly with all family members. The most impressive part of the repair was the meticulous care given to the drywall/paint work and carpet restoration. My inquiries with the first few contractors resulted in bids in these two areas that were three times the cost of CRT. I have recently referred an acquaintance; who had a similar problem last week, to Bruce and his company, based on the wonderful experience and trust that I have in this company. P.S.- Bruce, sorry it has taken so long to submit this report. We've had several other emergencies that demanded our attention, and it is certainly not a reflection on your work or my appreciation of your services.
Description of Work: - Ceiling repair w/ texture to match. - Ceiling and wall paint work. - Replaced base board in family room, hallways , master bedroom and bathroom. - Installed previously removed sliding doors. - Carpet stretching and padding- restored to original. Repaired entryway carpet at no cost. - Inspected the outdoors sprinkler system- referred to subcontractor who specialize in this particular problem.

Bruce always shows up as agreed after coming by beforehand to estimate time/materials. He is equipped with all necessary tools and even has some odds and ends of hardware to ensure job completion. Bruce is very reasonable in his prices and very accomodating. I am happy to say that, in him, I have found my handyman.
Description of Work: We have used Bruce's services three times. Last spring he installed a wall air conditioner and painted the eaves of the house. Later on in the summer he installed an electrically driven awning and just this month he hung some pegboard and wall shelving material in our garage as well as repaired/installed moulding around three doors.

Bruce was available and started the day after submitting his bid. He showed up on time and completed all work as we agreed. He was able to use his own initiative in resolving differences between the old and new units, left the premises clean and orderly and finished on time.
Description of Work: Bruce replaced a window air conditioning unit and painted the eaves of my 2 story house.

Bruce did a great job, was very helpful, patient, honest and timely. I plan to have him come back to do the next phase of the job when I can afford it. Bruce came over & made an estimate. He made some very helpful suggestions about the plans. We had some changes in our plans so we asked him to delay the start of the project twice, a week each time and he graciously accommodated our requests. He also accepted other changes to the project and helped with additional tasks that came with those changes. He made a good effort to minimize the mess and to clean up each day. His workmanship was excellent and he was very polite, and easy to talk to. I recommend him without reservation!
Description of Work: Finished an un-finished ceiling by installing insulation, dry-wall and recessed lighting in our family room.

Bruce was very flexible. I called and he was available the next day. But we had to postpone a day, as I had issues getting the unit that we needed. He was willing to work with me on schedule. He met me the next day at the property. He got the unit out of the box, read the install instructions, and proceeded to do a fabulous job of installing the unit. It took about an hour. We had not electric until the next day, so we could not test it out. But once the electric was in, it all worked fine.
Description of Work: I needed a 220 V AC/heat pump window unit installed in a window where one had never been before.
