He was prompt and fixed the problem for s pretty simple procedure. I like how they come and give a free estimate first and let you decide after they give you the price.

Great. He installed GFI's on outlets that didn't have grounds and we didn't even have to ask/tell him to. He never got frustrated with not-so-state-of-the-art systems. I would highly recommend Richard.
Description of Work: Replaced old electrical outlets, added outlets in basement, installed wiring for new office equipment, installed photo-sensor and replaced wiring on porch light.

They said they could do the work but they would not do it. They never really gave me a quote. They just said that their quote would be too high, more than I wanted to pay. They never gave me an opportunity to really respond to any price. I would not call them again.
Description of Work: I had them come out to give me a quote to install a concrete ramp for a small shed.

They were on time and the price was very good compared to other estimates we received. The one complaint that I have is that the finish is a little rough, but it isn't all that noticeable unless you are looking for it. Overall I would use them again.
Description of Work: We had Handyman Connection refinish a patched area of drywall in our ceiling as well as sand down the previous textured finish on the ceiling and paint it.

The light switches were installed upside down. The opening had to be enlarged and filled in with wall putty. It was not same color as surrounding wall.
Description of Work: installed light fixture, put in wall switches, removed whole house fan cover
Great - until my electric gate was damaged. The work on the privacy fence was completed. The employee for the fence, Mel, was excellent. Handyman Connection did not charge me for any of the work done. The problem was handled in a very professional way. I came out less than even on cost but would call them again. I have used this company many times before this incident and have been very pleased.
Description of Work: Drywall, roof repair. Earlier in the year we called for some simple electrical work

For this last job the handyman moved the time on us which actually I have never had happen before but it ended up not being a problem. For this painting job we had to buy our own paint (as we did the last time they did this) which I think is a pain (it's not like there was a specific color we wanted - how many shades of "traffic yellow" are there and what difference does it make?). I also think the price was high especially considering we had to buy the paint (I wasn't totally in charge so I don't know how that happened - I just show up and check the job and write the check!). I am concerned, however, because this time in addition to the new area we wanted painted; we had to have the handyman "touch up" part of the previous NO Parking job this company did for us exactly one year ago (it was a different handyman). It now looks GREAT but we will have to see how permanent it is and how often we have to get it touched up. As for the personal jobs I have had this company do, I have ALWAYS been happy with what they do although, again, they seem a little expensive but I guess I continue to use them because they seem to be able to schedule the work quickly, are punctual, are personable, and give estimates. I have had them do such things as install ceiling fans, fix outdoor lighting, paint garage door, fix broken toilets, and several other jobs I can't remember (I have been using them for years). The ONLY complaint I have for the personal jobs they have done is that one handyman had offensive body odor but he was good at what he did so ... :~(
Description of Work: I have used this company on numerous occasions for personal jobs, however, the last time was actually for some out-door painting for our Homeowners' Association Board on which I serve. I have been generally pleased with their work. On the last occasion the handyman painted yellow "NO Parking" lines and signs on our street and in front of our mailboxes.

I've used them two or three times. The experience has been good overall. The closet door didn't stay fixed and his explanation was that it was old, which I thought was lame. I will use them again. They are middle of the road price wise and they generally do a good job.

The men were polite and efficient and did the job easily.
Description of Work: A wire was taken out from under a rug; desk with computer moved 3 feet across room; a 6x3x2 ft. bookcase moved upstairs - 14 steps. I asked the office what this would cost and was told that it would be no less than $75.00. I did not ask the men when they arrived what the moving would cost. That was a mistake. They charged $120.00 for 15 minutes work. I think that the office should have warned me that because there were 2 men, because they came from another town that the cost for moving would be quite high. Unfortunately I am left with the impression that had I asked them to call the office for a quote before they moved the furniture, I might have paid the base $75 price.

Response from Handyman Connection - Lexington
As the member indicated, she was told the minimum charge for any work is $75. The procedure is for the craftsperson to give the price to the customer after looking at the project, but, before any work is done and, only if agreeable, then do the work. The craftsman neglected to give her the price, leaving her to believe it would be the $75. As a result, we have refunded $45 to her and offered our apologies.

Response from Handyman Connection - Lexington
This estimate was for a very large amount of work. We came out on a Saturday and had the estimate worked up by Monday. The estimate was free. With a project this size prices will vary based on the quality and craftsmanship of the work. All new customers are told when the appointment is set up that quotes are labor only. We do this because we do not mark up materials like many other contractors. In addition, cost will fluctuate based on the customers selection. If requested, we will provide a ballpark of material cost

PER THE CONTRACT, THE PATCHED AREA WAS ONLY TO BE PRIMERED, NOT FINISH COATED. TO PROPERLY COMPLETE THE JOB, THE ENTIRE CEILING NEEDS TO BE PAINTED WITH A FINISH PAINT.

Moving hot water tank went well, due to the change of the lines, the job took two days. The gas line was connected, the grill works fine, however the connection pipe to the grill is sticking up on our deck that I think could have been shorter. It does not look well done. After the softener went in, we had two inches of water in our basement. When I called the office, the owner was concerned and sent the plumber back out. He told me the water was due to our builder putting nails in our basement floor and water was seeping through. We thought that the hose from the unit was cut too short. He cleaned up the water and left. Two days later, more water. I called and the plumber was elsewhere and would not come to our house. A workman who was installing towel racks etc (from same company) cleaned up the water and put in a longer hose, we had no more water. The plumber did not clean up cuts from the hose, left debris that we had to clean up.
Description of Work: The plumber moved our hot water tank from the second floor to the basement, installed a water softener and had to install a new plumbing line to link the water softener and hot water tank to the lines in the basement. He also installed our gas grill, putting in new lines, connecting it from the basement
