Randy King

I have used Randy many times in the past and am well pleased with his service. Today I called him re my light problem, he happened to be in the area, and came by within 15 minutes. He put 2 new bulbs in my 'tricky' light fixture and said if that didn't work, to call him back. No charge. I did give him a tip because he has always been responsive, honest, hard working, and does a good job.

quick, efficient change and cleaned up well.

This is actually the second time I've had Randy over and I will consider him my official "go to guy" for anything I need done around this house. Last time, he trimmed a few skylights that I had installed and also installed a deadbolt lock on a door. This time, though, he installed a closet door. It was a little more complicated than that, since the opening was a bit taller than a standard door. No problem! Randy built down the top so the door fits perfectly! He's a true professional, and explains in great detail what he is going to do and then does it. Since I have no way to lug around a door, I purchased it online and he picked it up for me...no problem. I'm already putting together another list for Randy to knock out in the next couple of weeks! thanks Randy!

Randy King came out to estimate job and said that although it was a big job, that he could handle it. The drywall was protruding in some areas around the windows. My husband, who was a contractor for 27 years, told them how he wanted the trim installed so that we wouldn't have gaps next to the windows that would need filled. Randy and his assistant said they thought it would be better to have the gaps and then caulk because after painting, no one would notice. In retrospect we should have had him stop work at that time. He used too big a nail for the trim and split the wood in many, many places. Some areas he super glued the damage he did to the wood, but not well. The gap on the windows and doors is ridiculous. Had he installed the way my husband suggested we would have had a tight fit . As it is, we are having to remove the trim and reinstall it in almost every door and window. The addition we put on was very costly and the quality of work that Randy King performed was far below the standard we expected. I am very disappointed with the workmanship and the amount of time and effort we are having to put in to correct everything. It wasn't until he left and we looked closely at the work that we realized how bad it was. For the hourly rate he charged, I certainly expected a better outcome. The addition we put on was not started for six years because we had to wait for city sewers to come to our street. Once we broke ground things moved along at a normal pace. We did have to wait for the trim to be done because the tile setter took longer than anticipated because he is a perfectionist and did a wonderful job. My husband and I have redone almost all of the work that Randy King performed at our house. The drywall did stick out in some areas around the windows and doors, but after removing the trim that Randy King installed, we were able to trim the drywall so that it was flush with the windows and reinstall the trim or cut and install new trim on areas where Randy had either split the wood or left too big of a mitered gap. Our painter said that had we left the gaps and caulked them, we would have had to caulk and repaint every year or the caulk would pull away because some of the gaps were so big. Randy King did offer to come back and work for three hours at no additional charge, but based on the work he did the first time, we opted not to accept his offer. We still feel that portion of the money that we paid him should be refunded. I realize that the job was challenging, but stand by the fact that if Randy would have followed my husbands directions ( he was a general contractor for 27 years) this problem would have been avoided. We have fixed the areas to our satisfaction and consider this a lesson learned.

Everything went smoothly. Randy arrived on time and he had the appropriate equipment. He knew what he was doing and got right to it. When finished, he cleaned up after himself and put everything back where it belongs. What more could one want?! I highly recommend Randy for any household repairs.

He put up a basketball goal on the garage for us. He seemed very knowledgeable. He was very pleasant. He brought a man to help with the job. The job was a bit bigger than he thought but he stayed and finished the job.

Two big thumbs up to Randy King and Scott Sanders!!! Not only was the work that they performed top notch, but their communication was outstanding. What really put them over the top is the fact that they are truly nice guys who care about the work that they do. The area of drywall that they patched is perfect - you can't even tell where there had been openings for the lights. They kept us informed every step of the way. I wish all projects could go this smoothly! I now have the peace of mind that we have a friend in the handyman business!!! They will be our go-to guys from here on out!

He did a very good job and we have used him several times.

Knowledgeable and had the tools. The gfi had been installed wired backwards when house built & he didn't catch that before or during replacing unit. Cleaned up after work done.

It went well. I ran out of materials when the job was 95% complete and have ordered materials and they have now arrived. I have requested that Randy return to finish the job and that is scheduled for next. week..

he responded same day...as I only discovered the need after moving an inhouse office.. he was on another Job..but, we negotiated a price that would get him enough to justify helping right away..as my closing was the next day..worked great..and nothing detected on his fix.

The rack looks perfect, I called him this morning and he showed up an hour after the call.

He came right out and didn’t even charge us as it was a very quick fix. He was very honest and prompt. We plan on using his services again.

Randy said he needed to plane the facing of the door. He is coming on 7/22 to do the work for me! Update incoming!

With the exception of a somewhat late response to my initial call for estimate I plan on using company's service in the near future.

He did a great job! He was very responsive, called back right away, and communicated effectively. I would recommend his services highly.

He never called or came back to do any of the jobs.

I have used Randy for approximately 3 to 4 years at my house and my mom's. He is always professional, prompt and gets the job done. I would recommend him for general household repairs. He also has replaced toilet, light plumbing and carpentry over the years.

Called Randy in a panic at the very last minute on a Friday; he came the next day (which he had hoped would be his first Saturday off in a while) at the agreed upon time with a smile. Had all the tools necessary to perform the work. Very good attention to detail and the cuts are perfect. He had a genius idea to cut an irregular piece of door trim to close a gap where the door trim meets the tile, as well as greatly improving the trim on a laundry chute and everything looks fantastic!! (he even dropped everything and went to purchase the wood trim for the chute). Extremely happy with the overall outcome; already called him again to do some drywall repair in laundry on Fri 7/20. Great job and great attitude, very professional. Thanks Randy, that was a HUGE favor. You're the best.

On Friday morning 07/16/2012, I moved some things to make access to one of the detectors easier for Mr. King. As it turned out, I wasted my time. He did not show up. He did not call. He was aware that we were leaving for the weekend. I though he understood my anxiousness to get the detectors replaced before leaving. I waited until 10:30am before giving up and continuing with our travel plans. Not showing up or even calling demonstrated a complete lack of regard for my time. It was disrespectful and unprofessional. UPDATE: I feel better that he owned up and that he accepted that it was his fault. I think that it shows some integrity. That?s why I?m willing to change the overall experience grade from an ?F? to a ?C?. I also increased his professionalism grade and I would consider using the services in the future.

The process went well. Randy was great to work with from start to finish. He was open, honest, and did a fantastic job.

He did exactly what he said he would do for a fair price.

Everything was excellent. I felt a little embarrassed. He was very prompt. He was clean, neat and honest.

I wanted to have a seperate switch for turning on the lights in the garage and he put that in. There was a circle flourescent light with a pull chain in the kitchen where the chain had broke off. He took it apart and repaired the chain. He also repaired a lamp for me. He did very well. The prices were reasonable. He was here on time and made the appointment right when I called. He did a good job.

Randy, was on time, a very pleasant personality, told me up front what he charged per hour and did it in a little less then an hour. He had to go after a part.
