It's difficult to know in advance what service one will get from some new contractor. I am very happy with the service I received from Lucky. He kept me informed throughout the process, offered a fair price and in general, has a lot of integrity. I have no reservation recommending him or using him again. I'm very pleased with his service.

I had new baseboards installed in a small downtown condo. While I think the value was pretty good (compared to other bidders), customer service/experience was awful. Mr. Gorman nor his carpenter (whom I had met during the consultation/estimate) showed up the day the work was to be completed; instead, Mr. Gorman sent a different carpenter - completely and totally unfamiliar with the project (or the English language) - whom I had to babysit for 2 hours. Instead of going to work that morning, I was lifting lumber and tools and explaining the job to this guy. Mr. Gorman was of no help, and was totally absent the day of the project.

Lucky had to source parts for the very old and generic window we had. It looks like new and functions better than it did before.

Lucky with Gorman contacted me right away and came out the same day to review the project and give me an estimate. He was very responsive and completed the project asap. I will definitely hire Gorman again for all future needs. I highly recommend them.

Lucky and his men did a great job repairing our sliding glass door. The wheels were broken, and very hard to find due to their age, but Lucky managed to scour the country and track them down. They now slide like new! He also helped with a few other minor household repairs. They can really do anything, and the prices are very reasonable.

Lucky was amazing. He was able to come the same day I spoke to him to quote the job, gave us a great price and did the project the same day. We had some construction that had to be done to get a new water heater in a tight spot. His service was incredible and he was a pleasure to do business with. I will definitely use him again. Thank Lucky & Candy for all your help.

Mr. Gorman contacted me via home pmy hone and we talked about what my project entailed, I liked the professional way that he handled the entire meeting/project completion and the cost was very affordable for me. I had purchased several new peices of furniture, which required assembly. The gentleman's work was excellent, timing was outstanding (not one scratch was on any of the furniture when he finished. After everything was completed the gentleman even vaccumed my carpet to remove the little pieces of packaging debris, WOW I was blown away. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that is looking for a handyman.

The project was asking a third party to provide an opinion on the work of another wood-floor installation company. Lucky's rate for the job was reasonable and he was prompt.
