I called Mr. Handyman on Monday, 05/12/2014 to see if they had any openings to replace and wire a new kitchen light. They tried to work me in on Monday but was unable to do so because of a full schedule. I took their earliest appointment which was Tuesday at 7:30am. The work was done by a man named "Pete" who showed up on time, who was very polite and professional. The job only took him 30 minutes to complete and I was well pleased. If I had additional work (which I didn't) he would have taken care of it at that time. I will give Mr. Handyman an A+ recommendation. Many Thanks!

It went good and it went fine. There are some things that they can do and some things they can’t. They were very friendly and very customer service oriented. They had expertise in some things and some they didn’t. He could do the things that I needed to do. This guy was good with carpentry. He is very nice and I am satisfied with him.

ceiling fans, electrician, handyman service

I would recommend as the company was polite and professional and job well done. The only drawback was because they give estimates and then come back and do the work. For a simple job like a fan installation, they came out, gave an estimate and then came back another day for an install. I can understand for more complicated jobs doing this but simple items like this make it cumbersome. Luckily I am a stay at home Mom but having to set up and appt for estimate and then another appt for the install was more work than it should be. If I worked it would be even more difficult. Perhaps they could have a "menu" of costs for small jobs or an hourly rate. For example, Ceiling Fan (replace exisiting) $75. Otherwise, I would highly recommend!
Description of Work: Installed 2 ceiling fans (replacements). I provided the fans.
Follow Up Mr. Handyman's management was deeply concerned with the complaints I expressed and followed up to address them. They dispatched an alternate worker to clean the paint off the fence and correct the items that were overlooked. While I was unhappy with the original work, I do appreciate the effort and time put into rectifying the situation. The owner was exceptionally professional throughout the process and made no effort to dismiss or excuse the mistakes. I was impressed by this and have adjusted the ratings to include it. Review of Second Job Let me start with, "I should have known better". I had hired Mr Handyman to complete some repairs around the house earlier in March and was satisfied, if not happy, with the service. You can see the review for that job below. Apparently it was posted to a different "Mr Handyman" that is now out of business (11497 COLUMBIA PARK DR W 5, Jacksonville, FL 32258). While the handyman was still at my house for the first job, I had him look around and identify some other maintenance projects that should be taken care of. We scheduled time for him to come out to take care of the items we found. Unfortunately, I decided I could trust the guy to work without my supervision and did not take time off of work to be home. Without someone there, the trim work as done poorly, and he dumped the excess paint all over my backyard fence. The ceiling is "good enough" that wouldn't have faulted him for it, but in light of his other work, I'm sure it's probably shoddy too. My neighbor informed me that as soon as my girlfriend left, the worker went to his truck and sat there. . . I have taken pictures and will be forwarding them to the company. I will update this review again when they respond. Review of First Job I usually do home repairs myself but the work was covered by our home-owners insurance and I wanted to keep everything on the up-and-up. So I sought out a licensed contractor. Turning to Angie's List, I found Mr Handyman and scheduled them after reading their reviews. Scoring Overall: C Explanation: The experience was satisfactory. I am not left feeling that my money was well spent. I don't necessarily believe the hourly-rate was too high. Instead, I suspect that the worker did not manage his time well and that I was overcharged for materials. I did schedule Mr Handyman for additional work but I intend to try my luck with another company in the future. Price: C Explanation: This is probably the heart of my unease. I supplied most of the required materials but was lacking a quick-drying Spackle the contractor preferred. I offered to go get it, but he seemed set on going himself and asked for the location of the nearest Lowe's or Home Depot . I told him, but he disagreed and said the one on Atlantic Blvd was closer (Google places it five minutes further out). The result was a $160 trip for spackle and KILz spray-on primer (which I can't find, so I suspect he may have taken it with him . . .) At $96/hour, I was hoping for better time management and communication from the gentlemen. There should also be more clarity on the charge for "materials". No receipt was supplied, but $60 for spackle and a can of KILz seems . . . excessive. . . Especially when placed on top of the hourly fee. Quality: Despite the cost, the work was completed to satisfaction. The bottom of the kickboard does look like it needs a seal though. Responsiveness: The worker completed each task he was asked to do. Punctuality: The worker arrived on time. Professionalism: The worker conducted himself respectfully and had a professional appearance. I was comfortable having him in my home without supervision.

Response from Mr. Handyman serving Greater Jacksonville
[member name removed] …. As you know, I was aware of your concerns before any review was posted on Angie’s List and we had already made arrangements to return. We work very hard to leave customers thrilled and earn their repeat business, but eventually a job doesn’t go as planned. We don’t make excuses or dodge your calls, we take steps to address the issue. Given the need to work outdoors, including touch-up paint, and the weather forecast wasn’t in our favor, that return didn’t happen for a few days – but it was scheduled immediately. I was happy to hear you were pleased with the work done upon our return and I see you’ve adjusted the review. I appreciate your allowing us to return and prove that we can, in fact, do quality work. While one would hope that all jobs go perfectly, I hope our returning proved something about Mr. Handyman. We take customer satisfaction seriously and we will take corrective action in those instances where the work doesn’t go as planned. While problems are rare, I’ve always taken pride in our handling of these issues and hope this tells customers (and prospective customers) something extra about our company.

He did an excellent job. He was very efficient and a really nice guy. He was on time and cleaned up perfect. We were very happy.
Description of Work: He came out to my parents house to install safety bars in the bathroom areas.
Explained the procedures thoroughly. Was very informative regarding other projects (prep for painting). Flashing had to be bent away from roof to get to rotten wood. Neglected to bend flashing back in place.
Description of Work: Replaced rotten wood on 2nd story fascia, around exterior door, and on front porch . Work on 2nd story fascia exceeded estimated time by 2 hours, but required fitting tricky angles

Response from Mr. Handyman serving Greater Jacksonville
[Member name removed]. While I do show you contacted us on 2/11/14, the project described was not one we could assist with. We explained more about what we can do around the home and we mailed you a checklist of common projects we do and a magnet for the fridge with our contact info in case of future needs. This is standard practice. A technician was never dispatched to look at your project - as was explained on the phone it wasn't one we could help with. With so many companies with 'Handyman' in their name, it appears we've been confused with somebody else. Our mailing a checklist and magnet may have contributed to the confusion about which company came out to your home, and given an estimate was never provided it's unlikely you have anything with the other vendors name on it. Unfortunately, not all 'Handyman' companies are professional in their approach to business. They may not be licensed contractors, may not be fully insured (General Liability and Workers Comp insurance), and may not hire seasoned professional staff - each background checked and drug screened - with 20+ years paid professional experience for your safety and satisfaction. When you work with these companies, this is - unfortunately - what you get.

[removed member name] I’m sorry we were not able to support your needs last summer. While a picture is better than a thousand words, sometimes the on-site reality changes our perspective. As the owner, I insist my staff be honest with customers about what we can and cannot do. Sometimes it’s best to know when to walk away, as everybody is better served by not making the situation worse. You may be disappointed, and I accept that feedback. Had we stood on your tile roof to get to this fascia repair, and had we cracked or broken ceramic roof tiles in the process, you’d have been even more dis-appointed. This was a legitimate risk and I’m glad to hear you got this resolved without such damage.

He came on time, inspected the work to be done, left with the understanding that he would call back with an estimate, never called back. Ignored my calls to contact him. I was surprised because he appeared to be very interested , checking the project and what needed to be done, and then never got back with me. He was surprised when I told him I found him on Angie's list, He said he never registered with you!

Unfortunately, the person/company that failed to provide this estimate was not Mr. Handyman. This work address is well outside our regular service area and we'd have never scheduled this estimate. Given no estimate was actually provided, it's impossible to confirm the person or company name at the top of the paperwork. This review states that the person doing the estimate was surprised that the home owner had found him on Angie's List, as he didn't know he was listed there. Clearly, Mr. Handyman Serving Greater Jacksonville is a three time Super Service Award winner and recipient of numerous positive reviews and has an overall 'A' rating. This doesn't happen to people or companies that don't know they are listed on Angie's List given one my 'Accept' the award and agree to continue providing great service. Unfortunately, this is a case of mistaken identity and this review is intended for somebody else.

Marty was prompt, polite and efficient We are doing a kitchen remodel and required some damaged drywall to be replaced. Marty did a very good job. I do wish the mudding would have been a little tighter/cleaner. It required a lot of sanding on our part. Now not being experts, when we painted, we could clearly see we had not done enough. He also replaced some shut off valves and did a very good job with that. Overall, we are glad we had Mr. Handyman take care of our repairs.

He was willing to add other repairs to the list if I thought of anything else that needed work. He was pleasant, careful, professional and respectful of my time.

The work was performed on rental property. My tenant said they were punctual and professional. The work was performed in a timely manner and they were impressed with them.
They arrived on time. The gentleman had an excellent attitude. He left to shop at Home Depot to purchase the supplies. He did everything we requested, professionally and joyfully. We were very pleased with the work. The only footnote I would make is that they didn't provide the invoice from Home Depot so I don't know what the supplies actually cost. The next time, I would request that.

They did a very good. Mr. Handyman sent two workers and did a great job. This was done in two separate jobs. I believe their names were Jason and Pete. They both had knowledge of the jobs needed to be done and just overall did the job well. Their work looks like its good and it is staying fixed. I was totally pleased with the service. They were very nice people to work with.

We also provide a courtesy call the day before the appointment to remind you we're coming, and we contact you the day after to ensure everything was completed to your satisfaction.
