We did no work for the customer, and we did it poorly? I have no record of this person and have no idea of what they are reviewing.

Description of Work: Not very well. I purchased the 2-hour handyman service for my tenant. The scheduling person, Tim, contacted the tenant to schedule a time. The tenant said she only sent 4 items to be completed and it would not take longer than 2 hours. Tim and the person assigned to the project said it would take 4 hours. If it was the 4 items she let me know about, it definitely would not have taken 4 hours to do. I was not there for their communication but Tim asked that I get a refund because she could not work with the tenant.

We did no work for this costumer. As she said she got her coupon returned. This woman's tenant was very rude with me and my service rep. We reserve the right to work with reasonable people.

Good response
Description of Work: I used them before for handyman work. I called them just to find out if they did plumbing work too. Unfortunately he lost his phone and was not able to call me back on that day but did later in the week. He was apologetic and humble and I would do business with him again just because of his humble response on the phone. I like using them.

This customers calls were made outside of business hours and promptly returned the next day every time. When I woke her up on Saturday morning to offer her an appointment on the up coming Monday she declined. I suggested she get a refund from Angie's List and I hope she does.

See above.
Description of Work: The deal was $79, plus the company had a coupon for two additional hours of labor at a discounted rate of about $85 per hour if memory serves me correctly, so the total was higher than reflected above. The handyman, Ken, stayed for four hours and completed everything I requested aside from what he, quite honestly, told me I needed guidance from the manufacturer first for (and for that honesty I was grateful). He stapled down an unwieldy cable cord, repaired a broken cable switch plate, assembled a bike rack, repaired three broken cabinets, caulked and tried to weather-strip several windows (and improvised when a more major fix could not be done), and spray-painted some older exhaust fans (again, improvising to my satisfaction when a complete replacement job was not feasible right then and there). He used the first part of the four hours to go to the home improvement store to buy materials (which was added to the total). I was pleased with Ken's work, his efficiency, and his creativity.

Description of Work: Re-caulked tub/shower. It took 4 hours to complete. I did the same thing in my own home and it took 1.5 hours. Included stripping out old caulk, cleaning old caulk residue, and re-caulking the tub to wall seam. Mine came out looking better than the professional job, and I am no expert.

Description of Work: Service man was very punctual, and arranged a date of service right a way. He capped off outlot wires, and removed old covers. He finished installing insulation, stapled and put up a plastic vapor barrier. Very pleased with the work. Cindy H.
