Good

They were very prompt. They were neat and cleaned up after themselves. I think they are just great.

I can't speak highly enough of the Handy Guy. He is punctual, honest, considerate, professional, knows his stuff and goes the extra mile to take care of his clients. I have had numerous other contractors provide service to my historic home and they all lack in many areas - but not the Handy Guy. I have high standards and demand good customer service. I also am highly suspicious of contractors who make claims that sound to good to be true. The Handy Guy passes all of my tests with flying colors. I will always call him first because I know he will take care of my house hold problems AND he'll be honest with me if it's a challenge that is beyond his scope of work.

For the amount of work they did I thought the cost was very reasonable. What impressed me the most was his honesty before doing any work. If he saw anything that needed more attention and might cost more then he consulted me, offered me options and let me know how much the cost would be. They showed up on time and got things done in a reasonable amount of time. They cleaned up after themselves and were very professional.

I am in a town 30 miles away from Des Moines. In my request, asked if he would come to my house. Client responded by saying it is not his normal service area, but that I could call him, and we would discuss. I called and left a message on the number he provided. Did not hear back. Went to his website and pulled off a different number. Spoke w/ his wife and she said she would pass the message on. Never had a response. I can understand the 'handyman" not wanting to drive 30 miles, however I wish he would not have told me he would discuss it if he wasn't going to call me back. I had a good day's worth of "little jobs" (hanging doors, swapping out outlets, etc) and had offered additional (substantial) work in the future. My house was built in the '40s and needs electrical, HVAC, plumbing, you name it.Oh well, I shall continue to search for a handyman willing to come to my town.

Work was done efficiently and we were very pleased with the results. This is the second time we have hired the Handy Guy and have been pleased with our experiences.

He came on time which is really important because we both work. It took two visits. The water line for the refrigerator required threading through the ceiling tiles in the basement and going through a tile floor. It was not easy to do those cables, it involved crawling under the deck. Everything looks very tidy and neat--the cable to the bedroom is virtually invisible.

He was good. He was very polite and very knowledgeable. He is educated on a few things.

The Handy Guy is honest, friendly, responsive, clean, skilled, and dependable. I have and will gladly hire him for any problems at my home! Highly recommended.

Jeremy quoted the job, I had to wait quite a few months until I was ready to have the work done. I asked Jeremy to make sure the quote was still good, and he checked on prices, and it was. He showed up exactly when he said he would on Thursday. He went to work and fixed the hole in the ceiling. I was impressed that he took the time to talk with me (I was home working on other projects) and accepted my input. I felt very comfortable leaving him in the house by himself. He selected the very best quality product for my floor, within what I asked for. I wanted a specific pattern and color for the vinyl floor, and I what Jeremy put in was BETTER than what I expected. I am so happy with that floor! On Friday, he blew insulation into the attic. He again listened to how I wanted things done. He originally suggested that he drill holes in the ceiling of my kitchen and living room, which I wasn't too happy about, so he accessed the space to be insulated from the outside. Overall, I'm very happy with the quality of the work and materials. The only negative is that his schedule is usually booked 2 weeks out, so plan ahead.

I called to get a quote. Jeremy scheduled a time to come out and look at the damage to give me a quote. He came exactly when he said he would. The quote was a bit pricey, but I learned long ago that you get what you pay for. I determined that the quote was fair. I paid half up front, and agreed to pay the second half upon satisfactory completion of the job. The promised completion date was 2 weeks after the contract was signed. He told me before I signed the contract that he would be sub-contracting out the job. The subcontractors did the job in within the deadline. The only complaint I had about the subcontractor was that he used some salty language in the presence of my 5-year-old. Other than that, the job was done well, and on time. Well enough that I am planning on calling them back for another job.
