Budget Right Handyman

Description of Work: Had him install new towel rack in bathroom, touch up the wall, paint, and install new tp holder. The patch where the old TP holder was was bulgy and not sanded prior to painting. The towel rod wasn't installed correctly so it continues to come apart when used. I would not use them again.

Description of Work: Hung pot-hanger in kitchen

Description of Work: Rewrapped water pipes with heat wrap on very tight crawl space

Description of Work: He arrived on time and got to work immediately. I had him exchange out two chandeliers which he did. However I also had some drywall repaired. He did an OK job, however, he failed to realize that the patch in the bathroom the result of an extremely slow leak and needed more than a simple mudd job. The other drywall work he did was acceptable.

Description of Work: I wanted grab bars and a shower head adapter installed so I could attach a hose onto my shower. It was a 2 hour special for $99. I had 2 grab bars by 2 toilets and 1 in the shower. The man came in and said he had to go out to the hardware store to buy some special screws for our plaster walls. He was gone 20 minutes and I had to pay extra $ for the special screws and anchors he bought, I think it was an additional $14. The 'special' screw was placed on one side of the grab bar and not the other, so it looks odd. He then installed the 3 grab bars and took apart the shower head to put it back on again saying I didn't get the right type of adapter (this was a universal adapter and our shower head is a normal size and type, nothing special). All in all this took 3 hours of work...to install 3 grab bars. I think it took way too long for this amount of work. I had a neighbor in my fathers area put some grab bars up in his house and it was done well within the 2 hour time frame, and that was also 3 grab bars. I would never hire this company again.

Description of Work: General handyman -- Tighten kitchen faucet, replace hardwired smoke detectors throughout the house, change lightbulbs in difficult to access light fixtures. All went well except that the faucet (a single lever faucet) is set so that the neutral position between hot and cold is about 30 degrees to the right of where it should be. He told me about this and enlisted my help to try to make it right, but could not. I don't know if anyone else could have fixed it properly or if it's a defect in my faucet.

Description of Work: I needed someone to come out and replace some very old insulation in the basement with new. He was on time, very personable, and finished the work quickly. Well done!

Description of Work: the budget right handyman responded to my calls very quickly and professionally. Initially I had a painting job in mind for this $98 for two hours of work service, which involved taking a portion 4x4 of the dry wall off, put it back and paint. However, after talking to them over the phone, I was given an estimate of at least 6 hours for such work. Therefore, I opted to have them over to re-caulk a bath tub. The work was done fine. The small issues were 1) my address was mistaken to be in Chicago. So the contractor went to a wrong address while I was waiting at my place. that resulted in a 30min delay in the starting time; 2)the company card the contractor carried did not work, so I had to go to the store to pay for the material. It was not a big deal, however I would suggest whoever use the service to just go with the contractor at the first place, that will save you some trouble to double back from other things you were doing; 3) I was told I will receive some pictures of the finished work once it was completed, but that did not happen. |Overall, the job went fine. In the future, I would only purchase this kind of deal if I have small jobs to be done. From Angie's list, most of people have caulking type of work for these 2 hours deals. If you have anything bigger, you might want to contact the handyman and get an estimate prior to purchase the deal.

Description of Work: The service was exceptional! The individual performing the work demonstrated genuine concern for ensuring the quality of his work and making sure I was satisfied. I have requested the worker for future repairs.
