Contractor arrived on time and immediately began work. Installation and mounting of the stand and HDTV was quick. My only concern would have been an option to have a flexible mount that could be easily extended out from the wall to allow for wiring changes to the back of the HDTV. As it is now, it takes two people to make the changes. The issue was more my problem as I didn't research this at the beginning of the process.
Description of Work: Provided and installed wall mounted TV Stand

Two very professional men arrived on time and were definitely ready to work! One used his miter saw to replace some trim while the other changed the knobs and pulls in the kitchen. The dishwasher has a custom door which had to be disassembled to put the new handle on it. This took some time (by no fault of theirs) and they worked through the problem of getting the door to remount correctly. They also hung 9 pictures for us. I would definitely use this company again. They did a great job even when faced with the difficult task of rebuilding my dishwasher.
Description of Work: We used an Angie's List Big Deal to hire this company for handyman work.

I had purchased an electrical special on line ~ $99.00 for two hours. Dave contacted me almost immediately via e-mail, to schedule an appointment. I knew from the onset that the special covered the labor and not the supplies. I was proactive in purchasing the electrical boxes, lamp holders, switches, switch plate, and light bulbs, but completely spaced the electrical wiring itself. The cost of purchasing the wire thru Dave plus an additional twenty minutes to finish the job resulted in the additional $82.00. Dave was punctual, informative, focused, friendly, receptive to my requests, wore booties in the house, and cleaned up after himself. I would hire again for electrical.
Description of Work: Dave rewired an existing basement stair light to be dual switched. He also installed two basement ceiling pull string lights.

Dave and Mark are great. They really respect the custom nature of our home. I have had them out twice to do all sorts of things, including, but not limited to: Installing ceiling fan and ceiling medallion, switching six light fixtures, installing dimmer switches, replaced GFCI outlet, fixing a toilet, installing bathtub trim piece, adjusting cabinet doors, installed two outlets where none existed (near light switches in closet and pantry) and more. They arrive promptly with tools needed to do the job. I had to run to Lowe's once because I had provided the wrong item, but they kept going on my list while I was gone. Very courteous and clean up after themselves.
Description of Work: Lots of handyman work on my honey-do list. They are now my "go-to" handymen!

They arrived on time and very professionally fixed both of my issues. When they removed my toilet to have access to the molding, they found another issue. They then went to Home Depot and purchased the required materials and fixed the issues with my toilet as well. They then caulked the base of my master bathroom shower. The caulking to the shower will have to be redone but I am sure they will stand behind their work. Overall VERY professional.
Description of Work: They fixed the molding behind my master bathroom toilet which had been damaged because of a leak. They also re-chaulked my shower in the master bathroom.

They arrived exactly on time and took a survey of the work to be completed. David and his assistant went to work instantly to complete the work. They were extremely courteous and professional and completed the work in less than two hours. Each one knew what to do and I'm very pleased with the work performed.

Dave wanted something from me I was unable to give him. I heard what I heard on the original phone call and kept the appointment. He kept digging at me and I finally told him that he was hostile and why would I want him in my house anyway. I don't believe he refunded my original payment and I have paid for nothing but harrassment. This man needs an anger management course of treatment.
Description of Work: I expected Dave to stop by on a Monday morning at 8:00am to look over the chandelier situation. That is what he told me he was going to do. He didn't come on Monday; he came on Tuesday morning and I could not hear his knock as I sleep with a fan on. And, of course, I was not expecting him. He had told me that he would have to rent a ladder to install the chandelier as I have a two story foyer. He then contacted me on email and told me that he knocked and rang the doorbell and I didn't answer. I told him I expected him the day before and had gotten up early and waited for him for two hours. I had not even assembled the chandelier because he had not told me he was going to install it. He wrote back and told me his company policy was one trip per coupon sale and there was no way he would say he was going to just look at the situation and then make another trip to install the chandelier. I replied that I had not been angry with him when I got up early and waited for two hours. Why was he so upset with me? Whatever had happened had been an accident on either his or my part and there was nothing to be done about it. He replied that he wanted me to know his company policy and there was no way he would make two trips to install a chandelier on a coupon sale. I told him my brother was dying and this whole matter seemed unimportant and that I hoped the worst thing that ever happened to him was a missed appointment. I didn't hear from him again.

I spoke with the customer via phone for booking her "Big Deal" purchase, she had stated that she woukld like a new light fixture installed in her entry foyer and said the ceiling was approx. 18' tall. I let the customer know of our charge for ladder rental foe ceiling over 12' as stated in the fine print of the deal. She agreed to the additional charge and we set her appointment for my first appointment on Tuesday March 26th at 8am. I made sure that I had rented the ladder to reach her tall ceilings and I arrived at 8:10 am on that Tuesday and knocked on the door and rang the doorbell several times. We had approximately 6" of snow the previous day, it appeared that no one had been in or out of the home the driveway had no tire tracks or been shoveled. When I returned to my office I sent an email to the client explaining that I had showed up for her appointment and there appeared to be nobody home. She responded that I was to have been there on that Monday. I book all appointments for each day in the same areas of town to minimize drive time and maximize appointments. Therefore I would not of scheduled her on that Monday as all my appointments were on the west side of town that day. I have copy/ pasted our email conversations leading from my email. I was in no way rude or angry and simply didn't respond after her last email because of her previous remarks. Ms. Client, I showed up for our scheduled appointment this morning March 26th at 8:10, I rang your door bell and knocked several times on your door with no answer. I had to pay and lose the rental cost of the 16' ladder that I explained to you was an additional charge when you booked the appointment and stated you had 18' ceilings. Thank you, -- David Wilson Apex Design Build Inc. (317) 629-7638 " For All Your Home Improvement Needs!! Client Mar 26 (13 days ago) to me David, you told me you were going to come on Monday, March 25, to look at the situation. I waited two hours for you. Did you contact me again to reschedule? If so, I didn't get your message. I am retired - would you be up at 8:00 if you didn't have to? Sorry for the waste of your time and money. If you want to cancel, I understand your frustration. I know we had snow, but you really did tell me you were coming on Monday. Wish you had called me - that would have worked, but this house is so big that it's difficult to hear someone at the front door. Again, I apologize for your experience and wish it could have been different. I didn't even have the chandelier put together though, as I wasn't expecting you. Thank you for trying. Client From: David Wilson To: Client Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 5:42 PM Subject: Appointment with Apex Design Build Inc. David Wilson Mar 27 (12 days ago) to Client Client, It is has always been my company's policy to not perform free site visits to assess a job prior to use a labor only coupon, the same as you had purchased. It would not be cost effective with time and fuel costs. I write down all appointment conversations with details on time and such, per our conversation on March 20th at 5:30pm in which we scheduled for the first appointment 8am for yesterday. Dave Wilson Client: Mar 27 (12 days ago) to me I can tell you are very angry. I also made a note of it being Monday because I had a doctor's appointment in the afternoon. But since you said you were just stopping by to check it out, it didn't seem time consuming. Do what you have to do. From: David Wilson To: Client Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 6:35 AM Subject: Re: Appointment with Apex Design Build Inc. Client Mar 27 (12 days ago) to me Dave, just one more thing. I'm not in the habit of being late for appointments - never have been, never will. Whatever happened - whether your fault or mine, was accidental. I wasn't angry at you when I waited for two hours for you to arrive but you are certainly upset over my not expecting you and not hearing you at my front door. Let's just cancel this appointment because I think you are being very accusative and unpleasant. Why would I want you in my house? From: David Wilson To: Client Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2013 6:35 AM Subject: Re: Appointment with Apex Design Build Inc. David Wilson Mar 27 (12 days ago) to Client Ms. Client, I wasn't angry, I simply stated my company's policies about performing site visits prior to the use of a 1/2 half coupon. I apologize if you felt my emails were accusing and unpleasant. They were in no way meant to be taken that way. Thank you, Dave Wilson Client Mar 27 (12 days ago) to me This is all unimportant. Just learned my older brother's cancer has metastacized and he is suffering. I took care of my younger brother for two years until his death a year ago and now it appears I will lose another brother soon. May you have nothing more to worry about than a missed appointment. I am not sure why this client felt that I was being hostile? I in no way am deserving of her rating, but she is entitled to feel how she feels. Dave Wilson

I purchased the $99.00 special for 2-hours of electrical work. Apex contacted me very quickly to schedule the appointment. They were punctual and pleasant to work with. When I explained the electrical work I needed done, they did a quick assessment and made some recommendations that ended up working out much better. Not only that, they showed me how a prior electrician had not done the work he said he had done a few years ago. I like these guys and would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: I purchased the $99.00 special for 2-hours of electrical work. I had some electrical outlets replaced and they also installed GFCI outlets for me. They determined why a couple other outlets weren't working and repaired them.

APEX made modifications to existing drains, gas line, and electrical connections as required. Appliances were installed and operate as expected. The work area was kept clean and free of debris.
Description of Work: During a kitchen rehab I ordered new appliances from an on-line source. The first job was to remove old countertops, sink, disposal, oven, dishwasher, and cooktop. After new countertops were installed APEX installed the new appliances. Items installed were an oven, cooktop, dishwasher, and garbage disposal. Some modification to existing drains, gas lines and electrical connection were necessary. APEX also installed a new duplex receptacle during the same visit.

Good job. Would call them again.
Description of Work: Replaced faulty light switch in Grandsons' room. Wired & installed 2 outside lights on garage.
Dave and Mark came prepared to work and started right away. Dave performed an assessment of my attic and my roof, as well as all the areas that may have had mold in the attic and walls - luckily I did not have any moldy areas. After laying plastic covering over my kitchen cabinets and flooring, they tore down the areas in my kitchen that were affected by the roof leaking. Water was being directed in the wrong direction leading to the leak on my roof, so a new gutter system was added. They put up the drywall and Mark's great texturing skills made my ceiling match my other ceiling well. I was very pleased. They cleaned up after their work, did a terrific job and were very on task. I will be hiring them again.
Description of Work: Roof/Kitchen ceiling leak repaired. New gutter, drywall and texturing.

Our experience was just ok. I explained what I needed but Dave and his assistant tried various other routes to get to the same end, which took up valuable time. Since the coupon was for a limited labor time, this was frustrating because I knew what we needed. When they decided to run a new line, like originally requested, installation was quick. However, due to the extra time, I was charged extra. Original coupon was for $111 but I was charged an additional $148 with little explanation. My fault for not questioning the extra cost.
Description of Work: Ran a new telephone line.

The entire appointment took 35 minutes and I was so glad not to have attempted it myself, as originally planned. Well worth the cost and am very happy the businesses on Angie's List offer these great Deals!! I also mentioned to Dave (due to the name of his business) that we were interested in getting a quote for fiber board siding. After they completed my work and cleaned up, I showed him the areas of the house that needed to be done. He discussed trim options with me and his opinion on cost vs value since our trim was extensive and in good shape. He let me know when his measurements/drawings were done and how soon I would hear back from him. I am very pleased with the work Dave and Mark did and look forward to working with him again on our exterior projects.
Description of Work: I purchased the 2 hr Handyman Special for $59. Dave (the owner) was quick to respond by email and was able to schedule our work on my preferred available day. He and his associate Mark showed up 5 minutes before the appointed time, ready to work. They brought booties to wear to protect my floors, but since they are being replaced also, I told them not to bother. I showed them the two bath counters that needed to be removed and the shower rod being installed. They each took a room and had the vanity counters out in no time with no damage to the walls. They carried them out to the curb for me for trash pick-up. Next they got ready to install the new curved shower rod. I told Dave the length of the new curtains and how high the rod would need to be installed. He asked if I also had the hooks I was going to use as these would add to the length of the curtain. I would have never thought of that! They set to work and were done quickly.

Came late, did not complete repair work. Blamed customer for not explaining the writing of switches. Said was completed however when customer tested it did not work. They never tested the results. They asked for additional money when problem was not solved. Simple issue of installing dimmers on 3-way switches. Came with an additional worker so time was recorded as x2.

Customer purchased 2 man hours of electrical work that stated it would be 2 technicians for 1 hour. Each technician worked on separate tasks. The work load went over the purchased time and we also provided materials. Client did not fully disclose the problems he was having. ( He had attempted to install new switches himself and had the wiring completely miswired. ) We made every possible attempt to correct all his issues within the purchased time. When we had to leave for the next appointment, I requested payment for materials and additional time used. Client refused to pay!!
Fantastic -- Apex completed the job within a tight time frame with quality work and in a professional manner. I will use them again in the future.

We gave Dave the inspection report, he came to understand everything we needed to have done, and gave us the best quote. We contacted 4 or 5 other handymen and Dave's professionalism + price hit the sweet spot with us. We accepted Dave's quote, he showed up the day he was scheduled to, and did the work. He even took pictures for us to give to the home buyers to qualify the work done. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Description of Work: We sold our house and during the inspection the inspector found various "violations" with wood rot, flashing, and other repairs needed to sell the house.
