The work was done beautifully, cleanup was good, the faucets work great, the cost was much less than if a licensed plumber had done it, and I am very satisfied. Louis also gave good advice regarding other needed repairs and referrals for those outside his expertise. He is a bit pricey on some repairs but seems worth the money.

Everything went great! He even said that if we had the exterior trim paint he would paint the work he did. He went over and above by painting the whole fascia and giving us a free estimate on a separate job on my house. A fantastic experience!
Description of Work: We have a peak on the front of my house. The bottom ends of the fascia were rotted out. The fascia needed replacing and repainting.

Let me just say that Louis and his son we absolutely amazing, they showed up everyday on time and has a set goal for that day and didn't leave until it was done. They went above and beyond we had to stop in the middle of the job to fix the roof and he was so great about it and so concerned that we get it fixed correctly. We were able to get in touch with him whenever we needed and he was very up front about everything. In the end he painted both rooms that we remodeled and there was this little turtle painted on the wall in my daughters room and I had asked him not to paint over him and he painted around him perfectly so she still has her turtle. It's the little things sometimes. I would rehire him in a heartbeat.

Louis was very friendly and informative. I called him and he showed up the same day to answer questions. We were getting quotes for a deck and a fence but Louis didn't stop there. I am a new home owner and had questions and concerns with the house we just bought. Louis took the time to answer my questions. He knows alot about everything. We hired him for both the deck and the fence. He always kept the communication lines open and completed the projects on time and within budget. His price was beyond fair. He obtained permits and worked with the village to make sure the deck and fence would pass inspections. Bad weather and inspection delays that were beyond his control did not stop him. We even had the pleasure of meeting his family who at times even helped him get caught up after weather delays. Louis clearly cares about helping people, not just making money. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again for any project no matter how big or small.

Excellent! I was in a panic because I needed a staircase handrail and bathroom grab bar installed quickly as my mother was being released from a rehab facility after a fall. I called and left a voicemail for Louis on a Saturday afternoon and he called back minutes later. He squeezed me into his schedule on Monday morning, got the materials, and then installed everything in an hour. Quality was great and price was more than fair. I would not hesitate to recommend him!

Louis built a beautiful deck for us. He is not the kind of contractor/Handyman who just wants to get money from customers. Instead, he is reasonably priced and is willing to work to the customer's satisfaction. We found him from Angel's list and we are happy with our decision of choosing him. Will hire him again whenever we need help. Thanks Louis.
