I found Mike thru Angie's List. I could not be more pleased with the work performed. Mike was on time and had the proper equipment to perform the requested work. He treated the job as if it was his own home, which I appreciated. I highly recommend Mike and will definitely contact him again for similiar work.

I found Michael Buford of Mike's Handyman Services, by searching Angie’s List for handymen. I called him and sent him a photo of the loose tiles. Because of his busy schedule, we had to set an appointment several weeks out. Michael arrived at the appointed time. I provided him with a box of dry grout that had been used during the original shower tile installation years ago. He removed the loose tiles, ground off the old quickset, mixed a new batch, and reinstalled the tiles. He regrouted them and applied clear silicone caulk where appropriate. The results were beautiful and the tile looked like it did when first installed. Michael was very professional and courteous. I highly recommend him and would definitely hire him again, even for other than tile repair services.
Description of Work: The grout had become severely cracked around several master bath shower stall tiles and those tiles had become very loose, probably due to water leaking behind the shower control lever plate.

This is the 5th or 6th time we have hired Mike. He has replaced all of our common area subfloors, laid vinyl flooring, repaired a porch screen door and porch frame I damaged, fixed a patio door lockset, spray painted our step handrails, and installed blinds throughout our house. He is punctual, ethical, reasonably priced, and a pleasure to work with. He is the only vendor I feel comfortable with leaving in our house alone. In every way I can think of, he is a gift.

We set a date and he was able to come earlier in the day to do the work. He was very courteous and got to work right away. He completed the job and even took away the old mailbox and box for the new mailbox. I had him look at some other things I needed and set up a time for him to come back and do some pressure-washing. I would recommend him to anyone.
Description of Work: I needed to have a new mailbox installed. I looked on Angie’s list and reached out to a few people and Mike was the only one to reply.

Mike did a great job! He installed 2 ceiling fans, added a peep hole to my front door, drilled holes in my cabinets so I can add knobs, and put up a water hose holder on my house on the outside. He did a great job. I highly recommend him, and I already have him scheduled to come back next month again.

We had hired Michael several weeks ago (based on recommendations from Angie’s List) to fix several pocket doors. We were so happy with the job we showed him our pool deck on the way out and inquired whether he could clean and seal it. He agreed and provided suggestions on the sealant (low luster) that would best fit our pool area. The day of the job Michael was right on time and ready to go. Although the pool is only two years old there were several areas where moss and dirt had kind of taken over. Michael spent a great deal of time meticulously pressure washing the pavers to ensure a quality seal. When he finished the pressure washing the deck looked brand new. I’m not sure how he did it but none of the mossy dirt made it into the pool. Once the pavers were dry Michael applied the first coat of sealant, waited several hours (well actually during this time he cleaned our back gutter and fixed gutter guards that had vexed me for years) and then applied the second coat. The pavers have never looked so good and are now fully protected. We are so very happy that Michael was able to do this work as we love the pool and he was so thorough and thoughtful in completing the job.

Mike was amazing. I thought there was no way he could fix the first door without replacing the track - but he did! The second door was a little different but he was able to easily fix it. I had sat and wondered for hours how the doors could possibly be fixed without cutting out drywall - but he did it. Mike was punctual and is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever have the pleasure of dealing with. And more important he knows what he is doing,

Michael is the handyman that you want to hire for all of the right reasons. He communicates exceptionally well before, during and after completing the work. He is honest about what he can and cannot complete. His work is very well done and his prices are very reasonable. Book early as his calendar does fill up quickly - but his work is certainly worth the wait! We have had him do outside as well as inside work. He cleaned our gutters (complete with before and after photos) and pressure washed the back patio and pool cage - great work!

It went great. Better then I could have hoped.
Description of Work: We had just moved into our house and I hired Mike to do many small jobs that actually took a considerable amount of time to do. Mike’s work is excellent. He will do what you ask but also offer suggestions that may make things better. He put up towel racks, installed lots of shelves,installed lights and a cabinet, Mike was great to work with. He is pleasant and shows up when he says he will. I would hire him for all my handyman needs.

I wish I could give a better rating than "A" as my wife and I have had one nightmarish experience after the other with previous handymen. Mike was prompt, professional and did an amazing job, going above and beyond! We've definitely found our handyman and have many other projects for him in the future! If you're considering hiring another handyman, do yourself a favor and choose Mike! You won't regret it! I wish we'd found him sooner.
