Arrived promptly and worked quickly to finish the job, which was good, as they charge in 15-minute increments. The handyman was pleasant and conscientious, and was equipped with what he needed to do the job. Very good experience overall.

Frank, the technician sent by Mr. Handyman, exceeded all our expectations. He is knowledgeable, skilled and friendly, and was very professional in answering all our questions. He also did a good job cleaning up after all the work was done. We thought the total cost was very reasonable for two and a half days worth of very high quality work. We would call Mr. Handyman again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: We had quite a variety of work done: repaired mailbox post and replaced box; installed drapery brackets/rods; replaced faucets; caulked tub and shower; installed doorknobs; drywall repair, including large hole; pressure-washed siding; and several other miscellaneous tasks.

Way too expensive!! Use another company before Mr. Handyman. My wife and I had mold remediation done in our home, so an entire wall (about 300 sq. ft. of drywall), as well as a small ceiling in our air conditioner closet, had to be ripped out. We had been shopping around for contractors to find the best price, and decided to have Mr. Handyman come out to install the dry wall for us after they quoted us between $1800 - $2000 over the phone. We were happy with that price, but when they came to our home they quoted us $4800. We were both confused why it was so much more expensive, but we were just ready to have our house put back together so we decided to go with them (we also thought that was what General Contractor originally quoted us for the drywall). On the third day of them working at our house, I asked when they were going to complete the Air Conditioner closet because they hadn't started, and they told me that wasn't included in the $4800 price. They quoted us an extra $2000 to finish the ceiling in the A/C closet. At this point I was pretty frustrated, so I looked back at the quote we got from the General Contractor to see what they would have charged us for the drywall and labor. They would have charged $1800. That is almost 1/3 of what we paid. So in the end, we paid $4800 for about 300 sq. ft. of drywall and approximately 50 linear feet of baseboard installation, and we still have an A/C closet without a ceiling. We also asked if they would separate the drywall work from the rest of the bedroom with plastic to keep dust out, and they assured us they would. They also assured us they would leave the space as clean as they found it. Mr. Handyman never used plastic, and they left footprints all over our house, dust all over our furniture, and clumps of drywall dust all over the new and existing walls.

Response from Mr. Handyman serving Greater Jacksonville
[Member Name Removed], I was very sorry to see your review. We work very hard to leave folks thrilled with what we do. We're generally proud of our ability to protect the home and clean up after ourselves when done, so I've passed along your feedback to the guys that did your work. We need to do better. From our discussion on the phone, however, your big item of concern is the eventual cost; which was put in writing and which was approved before any work began. What we put in writing clearly summarized the work in the bedroom and did not include the A/C closet. We don't use bait and switch tactics, take customer satisfaction and our reputation seriously, and were fully transparent up front about work to be done and the cost to do it. My understanding is that this project had drug on for months and your other contractor was on-again and off-again. While his estimate may have been less than ours, we were also told he was unreliable. The whole reason we were even contacted was because of loss of faith in his timelines and a desire to get this thing done. We provided pricing, committed to multiple guys for multiple days and got it done, after signoff and approval to start work was received. Traditional contracting, where single trade subcontractors are strung together (carpenters, then drywall hangers, then drywall finishers, then the carpenters come back to install the trim, and so on), leads to extended project times and delays between each sub-contractor. Days of work can take weeks to complete. Respectfully, you are forgetting about the 'cost' of delays, not being able to get your life and home back to normal, general frustration and not knowing when that other guy would even come back. We thank you for the opportunity to come into your home.

The representative arrived on time, assessed the work, set up, and calibrated how he could get the work done within the one hour framework so that I could save money on the service call. Excellent in all respects, and the repair looks great.

They didn't give me a price for work to be performed until when they showed up to do the work. I would have preferred to have had time to get others in for compatible pricing. They just quoted things too quickly and had me sign my name on a digital reader without me seeing anything on paper. The whole experience made my head spin. I had asked that the wall have stucco replaced on it and then painted. Instead they put up fiberglass that looked like stucco and topped it off with a wood top which was not what I had before and I don't even know if it's allowed in my association. In the end, it did look ok but wasn't what I had asked them to do. They did go over everything with me before but like I said. It was done too quickly. I ended up paying almost 3,000 when I had gotten an estimate for repair of the wall for $1000 from a painter who was going to stucco it by hand & then paint it. That was what I had asked them to do in the first place. All the owner had to say was that they explained everything to me and I had agreed which was true. No I wouldn't call them again or any of the companies that are similar to them. They are way over priced.

They said they do not do personal written estimates and will only allow you to take pictures and e-mail them. What company refuses to come out to do a personal estimate? Are they that worried I am going to shop them and I inconvenienced them by coming out to my house? Sorry but the wood rot along my house would take several pictures and I'm not doing that. How is this company #1 on Angie's List? Maybe I had a bad experience? I refuse to work with a company that isn't going to come out to my house to give me an estimate.

Response from Mr. Handyman serving Greater Jacksonville
[Member Name Removed] - You were quite clear that you wanted it in writing, it had to be firm, and we'd be held to that number. Our experience is that behind rotten wood is often more rotten wood, and sometimes mold, wet insulation, or termite damage (they love dark wet places). If you need to know the full potential cost of the project, we've found that the best [Member Information Removed] to approach these situations is to book a small job to do the tear-out to expose the full extent of the issue, and then we can accurately price the full job. This approach didn't meet your needs, so we're not the service provider you were looking for. Thanks for your call, I hope you are able to find the help you need.

Perfectly. The job could not have been done any better. We met at the local big box hardware store where I picked out the new post and other materials. We then went to my house and the work began. The job was done very neatly and the clean up was immaculate. The grass that had to be cut out around the post area was replaced so well, you can not tell that anything was disturbed. I am very pleased.

Response from Mr. Handyman serving Greater Jacksonville
[Member Name Removed] - if you would call the office (904-579-2205) I'd like to discuss this review, the work that was done and how we might take corrective action if appropriate. I show you sent us a message via the Angie's List message center on June 10th (over a weekend). The message didn't have a phone number, so we responded on June 12 and again the next day. I see no response on the message center and no further records of our working with you and I don't see any work in our scheduling system at the address listed with this review. It's always possible that the work is under another name (spouse, partner) and the work was done at a different address (rental, home you are preparing to move into). If we did 'C' quality work for you, then I want a chance to make it right. But without a phone number and additional info I'm not sure what I can do. Please call the office so we can clear this up. We do quality work and stand behind it and your review concerns me.
