I contacted on email and he called me back a day later. Then he came over after agreeing over a convenient time to provide estimates and time lines. Then he scheduled his availability for couple of weeks out next month on a weekend (date was not fixed), and we were fine with it as we were in no hurry to get it done. When it was time for one of the possible weekends, he gave a call a week before and fixed a date & time, which we were fine with. He came on time and did a thorough job and cleaned up very well. I will definitely take his services again for any other work I might have.
Description of Work: Replacing/Repairing a broken dry wall in the garage with adding insulation between pipes. Also, installing a programmable thermostat.

Sam came out to see my house and give me a quote. He dropped off a typed quote as he said he would. Quote included the paint which he picked up himself after I picked out a color. I received a certificate of insurance from his Liability Insurance Co promptly in the mail. He fit me into his schedule for a few weeks later. Arrived when he said he would and took charge of preparing all areas to be painted. Removed shutters from front of house and prepped all surfaces with caulk. Window trims were painted and then the rest of the house was painted with contrasting color. Sam arrived everyday between 7-8 am. Very reliable. Drop cloths were used to prevent paint from getting on surfaces. Did not mind working around my 2 little dogs as they occasionally had to use the back yard.
Description of Work: Sam prepared the entire house by scraping, caulking Masonite siding that has not been painted in over 14 years. Prepared all windows and trim with blue painter's tape and drop cloths. Cleaned up after himself. Showed up for 5 days in one week to complete the job. Arrived when he said he would and completed the job on time.

He has done several things for me. He spaced everything beautifully and even put the items on the shelf for me. He is reasonable in his charges, responsible and cleans up after himself. I don't hesitate to recommend him and I will continue to use him. He is very astute and polite. If there is something he can't do he will let me know. I know I can rely on him.
Description of Work: Put up all new shelving for me, he primed and painted the garage, He put in lights on outside of the garage, dining room ceiling light.
