I did end up going another route. Dan was very quick in responding and very professional and polite. They came to the property and gave me a very extensive quote. Unfortunately the set up of how they did the work was not what we were looking for.

Seems Dan only does the handyman thing part time now. Was still mostly responsive and spent time on the project. Good work.

Dan came over and got to work right way. He carefully assembled the expensive kitchen island light we had purchased, and the hung it for us. He was very detail oriented, and careful to get it hanging "just right"
Description of Work: Dan assembled a complicated hanging light and installed it for us ( Removed the old light as well ). He also hung 3 curtain rods and curtains for us.

I like that I can find other little projects for Dan to do while he is at my house and he is always willing to do them. He adds the other small project charges to the bill, but he never says that's not what you called me about or tells me that I will have to reschedule and call him back out. He is always willing to give me a hand. Dan is very friendly and talkative. I have always found that he is very reasonably priced for all of his services.
Description of Work: Handyman Dan has done several jobs around our home. He fixed the spigot in my bathroom, switched out the shower head to be a hand held shower head, and some other small projects. The last time Dan came out he added some pipe to my sump pump to stop a leak near our foundation.

Excellent, was very personable and came right away to fix the thermostat.
Description of Work: I called Dan on a Sunday Evening - 8pm, asking when he could come to fix a thermostat so that we could cool down our sweltering house. He was very kind to come out straight away - arrived at our house in 20 minutes. Took him about 20 mins to put in new thermostat and now we are enjoying nice cool airconditioning. I am very grateful that he was willing to come to our house at that time, on a Sunday. Very decent person.

It's easy to do well with such nice customers. I regret that I have only so many hours in a day to get back to people. I will continue to try & do better about getting back to people that I cannot help immediately.

Called him twice to install tile. Reached him live both times, but both times he was too busy to talk about my job. He never called me back either time. I've gone elsewhere.

I'm sorry that you had a bad experience however I don't take jobs that far North. I'm sure that you have me confused with someone else.

SOME COMMUNICATION MUST BE AMISS HERE, SIR. I HAVE NO RECORD OF A QUOTE FOR YOU OR AN APPOINTMENT.I DO APOLOGIZE IF SOME MISTAKE ON MY PART HAS INCONVENIENCED YOU. IS THERE SOME CHANCE THAT YOU HAVE ME CONFUSED WITH ANOTHER SERVICE PROVIDER? I DO NOT KNOW HOW I COULD HAVE QUOTED THE TILE WORK FOR YOU AT 750.00 WITHOUT HAVING SEEN THE JOB SITE. MISTAKES CAN HAPPEN THOUGH AND I TRY TO ASSURE THAT I AM TIMELY AND DO NOT OUTRIGHT MISS APPOINTMENTS BY BEING SURE TO WRITE IN MY JOB BOOK ALL QUOTES AND ESTIMATES. I HAVE NO SUCH RECORD FOR YOU. AGAIN THOUGH, IF THROUGH SOME MISTAKE ON MY PART, I APOLOGIZE. I UNDERSTAND THE FRUSTRATION OF CUSTOMERS WHEN FOLKS DON'T SHOW UP FOR APPOINTMENTS. I WILL MAKE NO EXCUSES FOR THAT SINCE I FIND IT VERY IRRITATING MYSELF. I VALUE ANGIE'S LIST CUSTOMERS AND WILL STRIVE IN THE FUTURE TO ASSURE THAT I HAVE NO CHANCE TO MISS APPOINTMENTS OR FAIL TO RETURN A CALL. TO THAT END, I WILL BE PURCHASING A CONTACT TRACKING PROGRAM TO ASSURE POSITIVE FOLLOW UP. THANKS TO THE MANY FOLKS THAT HAVE ENJOYED MY WORK AND LET ME PARTICIPATE IN THEIR PROJECTS. DAN KERNAN, HANDYMAN DAN

Dan has come through for us in emergency plumbing circumstances, as well as full basement remodeling projects. All his work is top-notch and meets the highest scrutiny. Dan follows up on completed jobs, to see if any follow-up is required. He returns calls promptly, and is very fair in his pricing.
Description of Work: I am a Realtor, have recommended Dan Kernan to many clients and have used his services in my home. Dan is adept at plumbing, electrical, general carpentry, drywall and ceramic tiling. He finishes basements expertly, and is very personable and polite working around family members. I trust him implicitly in my home and in the homes of my clients.
