The work was done exceptionally, but my issues were with the paperwork being used to document the work. IT took over 3 months for me to get a final statement, communication was spotty for days that workers could not be there, and warranty coverage was not handled in what I felt was a timely matter. I was asked if I would recommend this company, and my hesitation caused me to say no. Again, the work was done well, but getting to the finish line took too long, and the final paperwork took too long to receive. To there credit, they did acknowledge that it took too long, but that was after they fulfilled the request, but you should keep the customer up to date.

Response from Budget Right Handyman
This is a fair assessment. We had Field Technician Issues on this job. We did work with this customer to finally get him taken care of. It simply did not go as smoothly as it should have. - Dirk D. Hoerr, Co-Founder, Budget Right Handyman

Great! A couple of minor parts were needed, and Bryan went to the hardware store for them. Additionally, a faulty valve was replaced. All appliances fully installed in under 3 hours. This is the third time I've used Budget Right Handymen, and the first time using Bryan. I would happily re-hire; the only reason I did not have the previous worker, Dan, back this time is that he was booked. But Budget Right seems to employ only the best.

Another Budget Right Handyman had taken seven of the screens from our 2nd floor unit, which was about to get a new tenant, to repair off-site.. That handyman died and the screens could not be recovered from the deceased's home. Budget Right Handyman made good by sending Dan. In return for the lost frames we were not charged for the materials to made the new screens, just for Dan's time. He did a good job of making the seven replacement screens. He also adjusted a blind that another Budget Right Handyman had installed which wasn't working right. After Dan's adjustment it was working right.

Went perfectly! Jesse and Joe were prompt, polite and fun! They worked through my list efficiently and even cleaned up as they went along! I'm thrilled to have been paired with them and anxious to have them back to get through more of my list! And, I've already recommended them and Budget Right to a client.
Description of Work: I had a series of honey do's for Jesse and Joe to do from hanging an extra large mirror, which required removing some molding and perfect positioning, hanging pictures/bulletin boards and replacing a ton of old, painted over vent covers. The would have hung some curtain rods, but I was missing some necessary parts.

I ordered a curio "console" (cabinet) online and called in Budget Right Handyman to do the job. The "simple" assembly ended up being a nightmare. After much and suffering and a call to the manufacturer, Manny Sanchez got the job done. His coolness under a somewhat poorly manufactured (but gorgeous) component really saved the day. Budget Right also gave me an extra hand when it appeared that the work might not be able to be completed without new replacement parts. I've used Budget Right Handyman for years, and can't say enough about their people and their customer support department. Thank you everyone, and a huge shoutout to Manny!
