Pete arrived on time. I had asked him to push the original scheduled time from 9am to 9:45 am he was able to do that. I found him on Angies List and gave him a call. Pete knows his stuff and is very efficient. I would recommend him to anyone. My wife and I were very happy with his work and price. Just last night I gave his number to friend of mine for the last 50 years.
Description of Work: Replaced Kitchen Faucet with a more modern one. Replaced leaking shower valve.

I was satisified with his work, including quality and professionalism. He was always on time, and did a thorough job of cleaning work area when complete. He answered all my question, and his pricing was reasonable. I plan to use him again on other home improvement projects.

It went very well. Each of these jobs had different price points. But were all reasonable in our view. We will not hesitate to call on Pete again. Pete is very responsive and reliable in my opinion.
Description of Work: We used Top Knotch for several jobs and were pleased with everything Pete did. Pete fixed our leaky toilet. Replaced our outdoor spikot and water turn off. Pete also replaced our bathtub hot and cold spikot with a single replacement.

Funny,y'all asking me again to give this fella a review,because I had to call Judy,the locksmith,back about 2 weeks ago to work on one of the doors which he ruined. Bless her heart,she did the job as usual. I don't believe that y'all want a review from me about him and his 1,000 pages of "wonderful,professional,etc and etc" reviews which I question,because how come he could come to MY house and make such a mess if he was "oh,so wonderful&professional"? Oh,and he sure charged me an arm&a leg for the honor and the privilege of causing such havoc.
Description of Work: Leave us with 2 TWO wrecked brand new doors........New house/new doors.

They informed me about what everything was going to cost. They were always there when they said they would be there which always does not happen. They were sometimes when they would come in one day and had to wait for it to dry and then they would have to comeback another day to do a little more work. It was especially helpful when they used to let me know about when they were going to be there and how long they were going to stay. They were really good in informing about such stuff. Their price and quality of service was really good too. They were good at getting back to me when I was trying to have them come over for giving me a quote. They were on time and were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves and things looked good when they were done.
Description of Work: I used Top Notch Home Improvement for doing about six handymen type work around my house. They fixed a burner that would not light. I had a yard light that operated with a switch and I wanted it to be light sensitive so it would come on at dusk and go off at dawn so they did that. They took out an old medicine cabinet that was on the wall and inserted a new one; they plastered it all up around there as well.

I called a day after the Storm Sandy because sewage backed up into my master bath tub and shower. I made an appointment for him to come. Five minutes later he calls me back and says from what I had told him it sounded like it was my septic and that I should call them. That saved me money because he was honest. Because of that if I need plumbing work or other services that they do, I will definite call them.

He did these jobs so quickly and so efficiently -- he is a real perfectionist and that is a great personality trait for repairing a home. I will definitely use him again. He was very knowledgeable and quick when he installed the new fixture.
Description of Work: I think he did three jobs for me though I only remember two of them. He put a new fixture in the kitchen ceiling and replaced burnt out bulbs in a cathedral ceiling that we could't reach.

Anyone who uses the services of Top Notch Home Improvement will be happy, because Pete Lindberg is both highly competent and fair in his prices. This is a story that illustrates Pete's skill and his character. My brother who has a prosthetic leg was visiting from out of town. His prosthesis became unusable, which of course was very alarming.He called a couple of local places in Wilmington that specialize in prosthetic devises. They were completely unresponsive, even though for them it would be a minor repair. I had the idea of calling Pete. He was in the middle of a big job but he found a way to get to my brother quickly. He realized that he did not have the correct tools, so he purchased them on the spot. Within two hours the prosthesis was repaired and my brother was walking again. I have had many experiences with Pete where he comes through in emergencies with flying colors. The above is only the latest one. And that is why I give Top Notch and Pete an A+ for talent and an A++ for decency.
Description of Work: Pete did an emergency repair on a prosthetic device that was falling apart

He is our go-to handyman and he has done all kinds of work around my house. He is very punctual, efficient, and cleans up very well when he is done. He charges by the hour and does not screw around. He works very hard and his pricing is very reasonable. I would highly recommend him.
Description of Work: He came over to move the thermostat (he patched the wall as well, coming back at a later date to sand and paint the patch) and fixed our toilet.

Pete came out right on time and did a wonderful job!! He was very professional, but also personable and easygoing. I simply couldn't be happier with his work and I am SO thankful I checked Angie's List to find him!! Being a widow, there are always things that need to be done around the house that my late husband would have taken care of. And although some women are good with tools and so forth, I'm the type who's more comfortable using a sewing machine than a hammer. So I need someone reliable to do that work for me. I'm sure I'll be calling upon Pete to take care of other jobs in the future!
Description of Work: I had some long boards of treated lumber in my basement, left there by my late husband who had planned to do something with them. I needed those boards removed from the basement and taken out into the backyard to rebuild a raised flowerbed, replace one board on the side of another garden, and create a little platform in front of my shed door where it tends to get muddy.

I used "Pete" on two separate occasions - the first was for a severely backed-up kitchen sink. The plumbing in my home is old and Pete took his time trying to unplug the sink with various methods including going onto my roof. Finally there was no choice but to snake the main drain which is much stronger than snaking through the old pipes in the kitchen. The problem was the previous homeowner walled in the drain. Pete removed my drywall, unclogged the blockage, placed a new cleanout plug and cleaned up the mess. Leaving me with a clear running sink and no mess. He then replaced the sink stopper in my bathroom that had not worked in two years. The second occasion my toilet fell apart and would not flush. I immediately called Pete, discussed the age, issue and insides of the toilet and decided it was time to purchase a new one. Pete picked it up and installed the toilet again with no mess and very quality work. Finally.....it took 40 years but I have found my plumber!!! Thanks Pete and Angie's List!

Fourth time to use Top Notch LLC service. The price as always is very reasonable. Pete picked up the toilet from the store and installed in the upstairs bathroom. He did not have the correct parts to replace our kitchen faucet. He drove to the hardware store to purchase parts which were required to stop dripping faucet. The new toilet was installed and dripping faucet was repaired.
