Apollo did a terrific job! He was thorough, DEPENDABLE, conscientious, and had a great eye for detail. He was fair and honest. I plan on continuing to use him for my kitchen backsplash and lighting, pantry, etc. Trust me, I am detail oriented and picky and Apollo doesn't disappoint.

It went great and will hire again.
Description of Work: Apollo and his crew painted the inside of my newly purchased home including ceilings and all trim with lighting fixtures replaced. The ugly chains leading from wall sockets to the lighting fixtures are a thing of the past thanks to Apollo! They also installed new tile flooring in my laundry room and installed new bathroom vanities and toilets. New shelving in closets hung. The attention to detail and consideration shown me was most appreciated. Those include cleaning up and reinstalling the original bathroom fans to make them look like new saving me from purchasing new ones and placing a tray under the water heater where there wasn't one originally. There are many things such as this that I did not originally notice but Apollo did. The workmanship was great and the site cleaned up with completion. I could not be more pleased and recommend Apollo and his courteous crew to anyone needing quality handyman work.

Mr Rodriguez is the most professional service provider in home repair and improvement that I have ever hired. He is careful and cleans up after work is done. He promptly responds to calls and texts I've sent. He shows up when he says he will and does each job in a timely way. He makes excellent suggestions and answers questions thoughtfully. He has so much integrity that he could give some away to others in his profession who often lack that important aspect of dealing with customers. I cannot recommend him more highly. Apollo and his assistant are the best.

Apollo called me back within a half hour of the email I sent to him via Angie's List. To my surprise he said he would stop and pick up materials needed for the job and come to my house that day! When he arrived, he was friendly, courteous and answered all my questions. I will definitely be calling him again for other work to be done at my house.

We called Apollo because we had used his services to add cabinets and a sink to our garage. He also installed a ceiling fan. His advice about the products to use and his excellent workmanship were very much appreciated. His services go far beyond that of a handyman. You can expect Apollo to communicate with you every step of the way from the scheduling of the consultation for work to the comp,ration of the job. We will be calling him for all our home projects in the future.
Description of Work: Apollo came out within 24 hours to fix a problem that had been created by another installer of our kitchen sink. Our faucet had come loose and was not functional.

Messaged Apollo through Angie's List late on a Friday....he responded that evening. Monday morning he was at my place of business inspecting a bathroom light/fan, hoping he could repair the problem. It had to be replaced and he did so at a fair price. He was prompt, professional, and efficient. He will be put on speed dial because he will be my first call for a repair!

Call Apollo for an estimate on some work I needed done around the house. he told me he would come the following day and never showed up, called him again and finally came for estimate, I was told by Apollo that he would call me in three days with an estimate for the job. It's been a week and a half and no response from him. I feel if he could not do the job he should have called me and told me so. I do not recommend him.

Sent a message via Angie's List, and got a call back right away. Apollo followed up later and said he could be here 8:30 the following morning. He showed up on time and fixed the problem promptly. Very professional and courteous, would definitely hire again. Price was on the high end, but worth it.

We had a rental that had water damage because a tenant left for a few weeks and the toilet did not shut off. It water ran continually until his return and flooded the house. The flooring, baseboards, bathroom vanity, cabinets, etc. were all ruined and needed to be replaced. Some drywall also needed replaced, and the whole interior of the house needed to be painted. He also fixed a few other things around the house that he noticed (e.g., a broken wall outlet, garbage disposal). Apollo did exactly as he said he would. He and his men showed up at the agreed date and time and completed within the estimated time to complete. He also called me regularly throughout the process and kept me posted on progress. His estimate was true to the price, and he communicated with me prior to the job to make sure he got the materials (e.g., colors, type) that I wanted. He also continued to work with me after the job was completed to make sure I had what I needed for the mortgage and insurance companies. I would definitely hire him again, for big jobs like this one or for little ones. He is very conscientious.
Description of Work: He remodeled the inside of our rental house.

Appolo and Tito are professional and conscientious. They did a great job and were accommodating, even though I changed the parameters of the job. They removed and moved a wall even though that is not what was originally contemplated. They cleaned-up after themselves every day and I REALLY appreciated the extra steps that they took to care for my wood floors and steps. I typically will never recommend anyone or anything, but I recommend A-! for all of your handy-man projects.

Apollo was professional and courteous and my husband and I could not be happier with the work he did for us. It is obvious he has a strong work ethic and takes great pride in his work. We will definitely be using Apollo again and would not hesitate to recommend him to our friends. He was always on time and called to let us know before his arrival when he would be there. We are so relieved to have a handyman that we feel we can count on to do the job right the first time. We are fairly new to The Villages in Florida. THANK YOU, ANGIE'S LIST. Apollo Rodriguez of A-1 Handyman & Auto Services definitely earned 5 stars in the work he did for us.

Apollo and Tito did an outstanding job with every project we asked them to tackle. The primary job was removing a built in master bath single vanity and installing a double vanity we had purchased online. They had to add the additional wall plumbing for the 2nd vanity. Once the old vanity was removed it was noted the floor wasn't tiled underneath. With the existing vanity being built in, much of the wall tile work had to be removed. Luckily we had extra tiles and A-1 tiled the missing floor area and re tiled the required tile areas. They then finished the double sink vanity installation and it all looks gorgeous! My wife is extremely picky with very high finish work standards and she was THRILLED with entire outcome! In the 'above and beyond' category of service that 300 lb vanity was delivered by semi truck that couldn't drive up our winding fence lined drive way. Apollo used his truck/trailer to load the vanity from the semi to his trailer then to our front door. He and Tito then helped carry the unit to the master bath area. All of the exterior doors on our 9 year old home were sticking and difficult to close. A-1 worked on them replacing hinges and replacing weather striping. The result was amazing! All doors now open and close smoothly as if they were new. We had a complete closet organizer system delivered for the master bedroom walk in closet. Even though i have horrible mechanical ability I wanted to do much of the work. A-1 completed all of the system wall mounting including insuring secure attachment to wall studs as well as finishing all of the framework. I finished all of the drawer assembly. During that process Apollo noticed I was struggling and he lent me several of his tools which helped me finish quicker. Once done Apollo also helped me align the hamper and drawers. It looks great! 2 other projects - removing a propane outdoor grill and replacing barn roof soffits - were completed wonderfully. Finally, A-1 was always right on time, professional, and great communicators on progress. I highly recommend!!!!

Apollo is a kind, caring and responsive person. You just cannot do better than Apollo! If you are having trouble contacting a handy man, it is good to know that Apollo answers his own phone. He and his partner diagnose your problem and if you don't have the parts, they go get them. Then they come back and finish the job quickly and thoroughly. What else can you ask????
Description of Work: He changed a number of blinds, changed our bathroom faucets to new nice ones, fixed our bathtub plumbing and went to the store and bought everything we needed. Most of the money was actually spent on materials, not on labor. Because we were moving, he squeezed us in to his busy schedule.

Apollo was very punctual, kind, courteous, and disciplined. He really paid attention to detail and made sure we got things exactly as we wanted them. He also had his own great suggestions. He is knowledgeable about an extensive variety of handyman/repair work and we are looking forward to asking him to come back to do some more projects. We recommend him 100%. Thank you, Apollo!
Description of Work: Everything! We needed toilets replaced, the front and side doors fixed, the A/C cleaned out, some plumbing work, some painting where there were water stains on the ceiling, garbage disposal, and a few other things. The MAIN thing Apollo and his assistant did was to remodel our kitchen with beautiful countertops, wooden floors, new cabinets, new lighting...It is absolutely gorgeous with very fine craftsmanship and attention to detail.

I sent an email via Angie's List, Apollo was very responsive. We exchanged a few emails then he called me for further information. We made arrangements for him to come Saturday, yes, on Labor Day weekend! He lives close to me and I was so grateful for this! Apollo is so knowledgeable! He did some troubleshooting and then he found the issue! Just like that all of my plugs were working and I was happy!! I got some business cards and have already referred 2 neighbors to him should they have a need arise and I know I will be calling him again! Great guy and I'm so happy to have found him here. I read reviews to make my choice and I'm glad I did. Now I want to add to his reviews to assure others THIS company should be who you choose! Thank you Apollo!!!

I called Mr. Rodriguez on Monday morning and told him what the problem was with the sink. He then asked for me to text a picture of the faucet, I did and he told me what I needed to buy to replace it. I texted him the next morning and let him know I would be available. He called me about 3:00 that afternoon and said he could come by and install. He and his partner showed up in less than 15 minutes..... they had it installed and working in less than an hour. Excellent service, timely and professional. I will certainly call them again.

He diagnosed the leak as stucco damage. We've been trying to get this leak repaired for nine year by various other roofers. He replaced the plywood on the chimney. He also put metal mesh on it by the stucco which he redid completely. He repaired the top of the chimney, which also had a rotten board. He painted the entire structure with paint that matched (we provided the paint). We are exceptionally pleased and satisfied with the quality of his work and would recommend him without hesitation or reservation.
