It went well. While I had booked him for another project, I decided to hold off on that. He picked out brackets that matched my decor and look great in the kitchen with the shelf. He also put up a light fixture without any problems. All in all, it was a great experience. I do plan on having him back to do some other assembly work for furniture in my son's room, but I haven't gotten to that project yet.
Description of Work: David put up a floating shelf in the kitchen as well as a new light fixture. He had to go get brackets for the shelf as he advised me it wouldn't take any weight for its purpose (breakfast bar) without brackets. He went to the local hardware store to get those supplies.

We have used David in the past and were very impressed with his work. This time, he did not disappoint us. He responded very promptly to our request for service and quickly diagnosed the problem. His craftsmanship was flawless and we could not have been happier. He even pointed out some potential problems with our plumbing when he pulled out the sink to re-mount it to the wall. He was very courteous, prompt, and professional. Additionally, we found his fee to be very reasonable and a good value for what we received. We will definitely use him again.
Description of Work: He secured a pedestal sink to the wall, fixed broken ceramic tile in the bathroom, and corrected the sink plumbing (as well as fixed defective piping).

He asked me to have the original installation manuals ready, looked them over, pulled the old microwave down, installed the new unit and was gone in an hour. I helped him a little, but it was his knowledge and experience that I can always count on when dealing with him. Whether it's a small or large job, he always comes through. I'm very happy with his work and reasonable prices.
Description of Work: David has been doing work for us for the last 5 years. I needed to replace our microwave over the stove and called him. He was out the next day.

Dave is a VERY nice guy. Easy to work with. Good at his tasks. Explains what he's going to do. Cleaned up after himself well.
Description of Work: 3 tasks performed. 1. Fixed a door latch that wasn't lining up; suggested I needed to replace the door know assembly. I went out and purchased the part, he installed beautifully. 2. Refinish a patch of ceiling that had water damage; had to match the texture finish. Did a GREAT job of covering the damage; looks like it never happened. 3. Reinforce a pull-down attic stair; made a brace for it and it's solid again.

Response from David Schulz
THIS JOB WAS COMPLETED AND THE INVOICE PRESENTED ON JUNE 12, 2007. THE MEMBER IMMEDIATELY REFUSED TO PAY ME AND FOLLOWED WITH A SERIES OF SCATHING & THREATENING E-MAILS, DEMANDING COPIES OF ALL OF MY RECEIPTS AND DERIDING MY WORK AND MY INTEGRITY. AFTER NEARLY 2 MONTHS OF THE MEMBER'S REFUSAL TO PAY THE INVOICE, I FILED A CLAIM WITH THE PIKE TOWNSHIP SMALL CLAIMS COURT. ON AUGUST 14, 2007 THE MEMBER WAS SERVED A SUMMONS TO APPEAR REGARDING MY CLAIM. HE PHONED ME THAT DAY AND ASKED WHAT IT WOULD TAKE TO SETTLE OUT OF COURT. HE CAME TO MY HOME THAT EVENING AND PAID THE INVOICE IN FULL - PLUS THE COURT FILING FEE. I HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH A NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE WITH A CUSTOMER. I CHARGE A VERY REASONABLE HOURLY RATE (NOT BY BID OR ESTIMATE) AS IS POSTED ON MY COMPANY INFO ON ANGIE'S LIST. THE HISTORY OF MEMBERS' REPORTS OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS IS AN ACCURATE REFLECTION OF MY BUSINESS.

David and his associate John arrived right on time, and at our request they were able to show up for work within just a few days. We showed them around, and they immediately knew what to do. They worked fast, but with care. Their price was reasonable, and the work high quality. David also graciously lent his expertise regarding overall condition and future projects for the house. I have NEVER had such a positive experience with a contractor, and I recommend him unequivocally!
Description of Work: Replaced valve in bathroom sink; fixed rocking sink pedestal; planed doors to fix sticking; replaced high light bulbs and cleaned fixtures; created wall insert to hide plumbing.

The price was reasonable. He was very friendly. The problem was a bit of a pain, the faucet had a leaking problem originally, and it kept leaking on him in different places after he would fix it. He was fixing properly, but other leaks kept starting. He came back two or three times to make sure it was fixed. He had a lot of perseverance for a tricky old house.
Description of Work: He came out once to help me with some electrical work on an exterior light and also for a plumbing issue.

Although we did not wind up hiring Mr. Schulz, I will definitely call him again for work around our new home. He was very helpful, friendly and personable. That goes a long way in my book!
Description of Work: I called Mr. Schulz with some punch list items to fix for a home inspection prior to closing. He was unable to do the job, which required a licensed electrician to complete, and so he provided me with the name of an electrician that he recommends. He gave me detailed directions on fixing another small job that I had asked him about--one that he thought we could complete on our own.

David promptly returned my phone call, and he was able to come within a few days. He was very friendly and helpful. He arrived promptly at the appointed time. The metal flashing was about 5 feet long, and creased in several places. He was able to straighten the piece out by bending it against his ladder. He then nailed the piece back onto the side of the roof. He did such a good job that you cannot tell that it was previously damaged. My only negative comment is that he showed up wearing sweatpants and a flannel shirt.
Description of Work: Replaced metal flashing from side of roof that had blown off during storm several months ago.

Two of my outlets were smelling when I used them. David determined that there were no major wiring issues and replaced the outlets. I had a ceiling fan that I wanted installed because the current one was wobbling. David was able to fix the old fan, eliminating the need to install the new one. David was prompt and the pricing was extremely reasonable. I would definitely use David again. By fixing the old fan, he eliminated the cost for installation and new fan.

I contacted Dave around January 12th about doing some repair work on a duplex I own. Based on the fact that his estimate was substantially lower than a few others I had received and the fact that he had overall A ratings on Angie's List I chose to hire Dave. Although the quality of Daves work was adequate the problem for me was the fact that it took him almost two months to complete, according to his bill, 21.75 hours of work. In reality he really did not even get going on the project until I threatened to hire someone else. It seemed every time I would call for an update he would have an excuse for why he had not made it over to the property when he said he would. Dave is a nice guy, his work is adequate, and I thought his price was reasonable which is probably why I did not fire him. If time had been a more pressing issue though I would have been forced to fire Dave after the first two weeks because he was not very reliable. Because of this I will not be hiring him again.
Description of Work: I had Dave come do some repairs on a duplex that I own. These included fixing a couple of doors, replacing a window, fixing a different window, and installing vent fans in the bathrooms on both sides of the duplex. He also removed a tree that he said he needed to come down in order for him to get to a window to repair it. He told me about this after he had removed the tree and charged me for the labor. I wanted to remove the tree anyway so I did not make a big deal about it. It just would have been nice to have been consulted first. I mean what if I liked the tree? He also removed snow from the sidewalk in front of the house, again without consulting me first and charged me for the labor. This was after a big snowstorm and it needed to be done so once again I did not make a big deal out of it. However I once again did not like being told about it after the fact. I would have preferred that he just stuck to the job I had hired him to do.

I called him January 25th. He said he was busy, but I asked if he could just do one ceiling fan, and then I could wait for the rest of the work I needed done. He said he would contact me by the end of the next week. I didn't hear from him, so I finally called him around the 12th of February, and he said he could not get to me. He didn't ever call me back, and I had to go with someone else.
Description of Work: I called him for an estimate for handyman work.
