mailbox repair
 + -1 moreSomeone knocked down my mailbox. After making a temporary repair, i called Gene's mailbox service. He asked what type of post i wanted and where i lived. I told him that I had made a temporary repair and that there was no rush. Two days later he called and said he was on his way over. About two hours after that, he knocked on my door to tell me he had finished the job. It was completed even before I knew he was there. He removed the old post, installed a new cedar post, set in concrete. He also attached the mailbox and newspaper holder to the new post. He even put the house numbers from the old post onto the new one. Finally, he hauled away the old post. He charged $140.
Description of Work: Removed broken mailbox post and replaced with a new one. reattached mailbox, newspaper holder, and house numbers. carted off broken post.

 + 0 moreHe and his son did an excellent job. They were really professional and we were happy with the work. They only took about 25 minutes to do the work. He came on the agreed time and he took all of the debris away for the cleanup. He let me know how long it would take for the concrete to set.
Description of Work: Someone backed in to our original mailbox and he took the old one out and replaced it. He poured the concrete for the base of the mailbox. They used a post that I purchased previously.

mailbox repair
 + -1 moreA snowplow wiped out my mailbox. On Friday I called three Angie's List service providers. Gene said he could do the work the very next day if it wasn't raining. It was very cold and snow surrounded the work area. He came early and went right to work. He was very professional and was congenial as well. The cedar post with newspaper compartment that he had constructed was very attractive. He installed it in very short order. The large mailbox he supplied was not of exceptional quality and I may replace it someday. But the overall price of $203 was very good. I was very impressed with his service and would use him again.
Description of Work: Installed a new mailbox post, newspaper holder and mailbox at my home. Gene built the cedar post and installed it himself.

I called Gene and within a couple of hours he was out and replaced my old post with a nice, new cedar post. He put my mailbox back on , repaired the latch and everything is as good as new . He was very quick and efficient. I couldn't be more pleased with his service. He's very nice to work with, and I would highly recommend his services.

 + -1 moreI am so pleased with my new mailbox and post - it looks so much better than what I had before. I called Gene on a Thursday and he was at my house the next day to install the mailbox. He left me an invoice and I mailed a check the next day. It was not an easy installation as he ran into concrete a couple of times in searching for a site. However the final job was all I had hoped for and more. Gene even hauled off my old mailbox and post for me. I would highly recommend his service.

 + -1 moreA-1 Gene's Mailbox Service was fantastic. They were good, reasonable, and fast. I called, placed the order, and they told me they'd call me when it came in. They didn't ask me for a credit card or anything. I came home one night and the new mailbox was installed. They're local, friendly and easy to deal with. It was great that I didn't have to hassle with it. For a business to come out and do an installation without requiring a payment first? I thought that was just mind-blowing.

 + -1 moreMy mailbox post was broken. Since the mailbox had rust inside, I decided to replace both the post and the mailbox. I called and his estimate was reasonable. I told him that my old mailbox had some rust on the inside, so he said he would spray paint the inside of the new mailbox, which he did. He came out either the day I called or the next day and did the job quickly and professionally.

 + -1 moreMy elderly father lives and next door and someone hit his mailbox and it was beyond repair. I called Gene and he said because the weather radar was showing rain all day he would come out as soon as the weather cleared when he could dig the hole. I told him we wanted a rubber maid mailbox. He quoted the repair at $150 (which included the mailbox) plus tax. He called an half an hour later and said he had the new mailbox and thought he could get it in before the rain started. He came right out and put in a new post which included concrete in the post hole) and made sure it was level and that it would open and close. It was wonderful!!! He even took the old post and mailbox with him. I would use him again and recommend him to everyone!

 + -1 moreOur mailbox post was broken after a driver backed into it. We contacted Gene to replace the post as well as the box itself, which was already dented and rusted. He took my phone call, gave me a free estimate over the phone after I described what I needed, and was available to do the work the next day. He and his son came at the appointed time and worked very quickly and efficiently. He provided a natural cedar post and a metal box which he kindly spray-painted for me at no extra charge. The work was done within an hour and we are very pleased to have an attractive, sturdy post which fits very securely and stands nice and straight. The spray-painting job was perfect, too. He also removed the numbers we had screwed onto our old post and put them on the new post. We were also very pleased that his price is so affordable and reasonable.

 + -1 moreOverall as a first time choice for mailbox repair (among many listed on Angies List), I was pleased to have A-1 Gene's Mailbox Service handle the job.
Description of Work: I called A-1 Gene's Mailbox Service a week before I ordered my replacement mailbox to see if he would be interested in taking on the job. His response was receptive, gave me an estimate and he took my contact information. When my box arrived, I called Gene and he came out that day to access the project. My post needed work and the platform needed to be replaced so he took his measurements. He came back the following day with a new platform, tore off the old, stabilized the post then secured his new platform and my mailbox (along with my neighbors which sits on the same platform). In addition, my neighbor had a paperbox that was not attached to the post, so he attached it under his mailbox. Good thinking Gene! This gentleman knows what he is doing. I could see his experience with the end product and I have to say it looks good. I was so happy with Gene's professionalism not to mention his lengthy experience and very reasonable fees that it would be difficult for me to go to anyone else but him! I would recommend him to anyone and I will.

 + -1 moreGene was very helpful and articulate about his services and what would be done. He came out the next morning after my call. He communicated well when the old mailbox that was remounted was not perfect and did not shut well. I appreciated that he did not disturb the flowers around the mailbox. I had expected that he would have to pull them up to put the new post in. I would highly recommend this company.

 + -1 moreI called thinking that I would need to replace my mailbox post. The person answering the phone was very nice and helpful. She gave me the estimated cost and a repair day. The repairman called at end of day to verify the information. He asked additional questions and told me that he may be able to repair instead of replacing it. The work was done the following day and required only a repair.
