The repairman fixed all broken grout and cleaned shower. He did not however have the sealant and asked me if I had already purchased it. I was not aware that I had to. Other than that he did a great job. Will probably use him again.

The handyman from Professional Handyman was on crutches when he got here and he brought somebody with him to take up the slack and I had purchased 2 hours of professional handyman service and I wanted a ceiling fan to be hung and it required me making a scaffold in the room so that they could work. He told me that it would take longer than 2 hours to hang the fan and he said he would charge an extra USD 200 to get the fan up and that was estimating an extra couple hours. The fan got put up and the handyman wasn't here very much and he was gone to different places, but the guy who was helping him did most of the work. I really had questions as to whether it took as long as they did to hang the fan and I went ahead and paid the extra USD 200 and he said that he thought that it was more than that because he had 2 guys on the job and I told him that he was himself on crutches but he paid me by the man hour, so I ended up paying much more to get the job finished. I just wasn't happy, I don't think I good deal.He made the comment that he had 2 men on the job, but one man was not capable of doing anything. I told the guy to use his best conscience and let that be his guide. He offered to give me a USD 20 refund and I thought that was a slap in the face. They took so long to do it and I have hung fans in the ceilings and it doesn't take 4-5 hours to do it. It was a vaulted ceiling and he knew that before he got it, he should have passed the job over instead of doing that.

I contacted the company via email with information about what work I needed done. I did not receive a all for two weeks. Once contacted I was informed the owner was in the hospital and that the caller worked with him and could assist in providing an estimate for the work I needed. The caller informed me they were busy since the owner was in the hospital but could come out the following week. I requested him to call me the next week to confirm his Saturday appt. he called Friday to let me know he could come that day but would be able to come Saturday. He never showed up, never called to cancel or reschedule.

Response from Professional Handyman
sorry [removed member name], must have been different company, I'd never received a call from you. I don't let anyone else take my calls except my wife and that's only been maybe twice. I did break ankle weeks ago, but never spent time in hospital. I still have completed work even with injury. The only work I've been turning away are full bathroom tile installs.

I called provider before scheduling the work to describe the job and make sure he was equipped and able to do what we needed. The job was described to the provider as cutting and installing tiles around the base of bathroom vanities. It would require cutting so the tile would fit around the corner base of each vanity. He said he would be able to do what was required and had experience so I scheduled the job. After arriving, I showed him the three vanities, the four corners of the vanities (two tiles on one vanity and one tile on each of the other two vanities) for which tile was to be cut and placed. He suggested just putting grout under the cabinet instead of tile because he thought no one would be able to see it. I repeated that we wanted the tile to be cut to fit around the cabinet base and that you could see underneath when sitting in the bathroom. When he finished three of the four tiles, he said he thought he was done. I checked and saw that he had left one area undone, so I gave him the tile and he started again. When he cut the tile, he said it didn't break where he wanted it to because it was brittle. He asked again if he could just grout under the cabinet. I called the owner and he affirmed that the tile was to be cut around the cabinet, rather than just a straight cut and grout. The tile was the only one we had, so it was too late to do an L cut that would fit around the cabinet, so he just cut another small piece from the scrap tile and installed it under the cabinet instead of just grout. I said, though not the best, it was better than just grout. I discovered then that the other 3 had been just grouted under the cabinets instead of cutting the tile as he had been told. But then his 4 hours were up and he had another job, so it was too late to do it right. He mentioned as he was leaving, that he usually only did "repair work which didn't justify him having the saw for detail work." I wish he'd told me that and been honest with me before we scheduled the job, and told me he couldn't do the required work. I feel the provider was not honest in representing what he could do, both before we scheduled and during the install. We are now stuck with the only tile we had being destroyed for any repair work we'd like to have done to remove, repair wall, cut and install tile like we requested. We were very unhappy and will not use again or give a good reference.

Great! They completed the work in a timely manner. Grouting & caulking the entire tub area. They also recaulked around my sink. I would recommend this Co. to anyone who needs grouting, caulking, etc. They did an excellent job for a fair price.
Description of Work: They regrouted my bathtub area. Fixed my window so it would stop leaking. Put up a waterproof frame around my shower window. Excellent job! I can now open my window & use it. They caulked the bathtub area. I'm very pleased. I have a glazed tub & did not knick or chip it. They were very careful with my tub.

Everything he does is good and he is a good finish carpenter.
Description of Work: We have adopted this young man. He is so good that we have continued to use him for everything from gutter cleaning, plumbing, remodeling a bedroom to general handyman jobs. His first job was to paint and repair our bedroom. When he found more problems he, with with our permission, continued to finish off the whole job. We will continue to use him for a lot of other jobs around our home

Response from Professional Handyman
I am a one man operation (most of the time). I also have prior commitments and open jobs at any given time of the week. I also manage a personal life that I so dearly love. I take full responsibility for not being able to commit to every customer I speak with. Also please take in consideration for scheduling, especially this time of year when rain is very difficult to forecast. I am human and make mistakes, but I own them instead of discarding it on everything else. I do have a tendency to make sure the customers I have open jobs with stay satisfied rather focusing on gathering "new" jobs.

I don't think they were professional at all because they didn't write me anything out, that is what bothered me and when I questioned his prices and I ask him if he could please write me something out he went to the store and sent me pictures of the parts and prices. I thought that was ridicules and they he changed his prices. He said he way under quoted me but he still was pretty low so I was going to have him do the work and then he emailed me back and said he would not be able to do the work. He said he had way underbid me and he wouldn't be able to come to my house and give me a quote. I thought all of that was unprofessional. To me somebody should write you out an estimate that says this is what I am going to do and these are the prices. To tell somebody you are going to do the work and then the day before back out. I just would never recommend them. They were punctual but they were not professional. I was very shocked because I thought they were on Angie's List because they were very good and professional.
Description of Work: I had a bad experience with one of the people I had come out and look at the roof and it was Professional Handyman. It was two young guys and they came out, he was going to do the work, quote and everything. When I questioned the pricing of the things all of a sudden the price went up and then eventually he said he couldn't do it at all. He said he wouldn't be able to do the work but he backed out of it. I was going to have him do the work, I was going to have him come over at my house and do a quote but he backed out of everything.

Description of Work: Josh was very professional in providing a timely estimate and followed up with cleaning and regrouting our bath shower within a few days. He was honest and did more than the basics to be sure all the grout and tile looked as close to new as possible.

He arrived around 8:00 AM armed with all his tools and even a tarp to throw on the floor to contain the mess from the removal of old grout, soap scum and mildew from our shower. He worked steadily until the job was done about 3:00 PM. When he left the shower shined like a jewel so I was very pleased with trying my first service through Angie's List. He was extremely professional and caring about his work! I am going to keep his name and contact information in my iPhone so I can give his contact information to my friends and family.
Description of Work: Josua is extremely professional tile man but more importantly he is kind! Rarely do I find handymen that work as cleanly and quietly as he did. which was very important to me because I have been quite ill while going through chemotherapy and he was concerned enough to work as quietly as possible so as not to disturb my resting. He spent the day cleaning up and replacing both grout, calk and removing mold from our shower. it was an exceedingly large job but he did not even stop for lunch so that he could finish it today. I'm so pleased with his services that I'm going to have him come back next month to do the same thing in our kitchen and guest bath, which should be more minor jobs.

Overall this job went off without a hitch. No major snags and he took care of the minor ones.
Description of Work: Josh remodeled our half-bathroom and did an excellent job. This required installing new ceramic tile, patching and painting walls, and removing the old light fixtures and towel rods, removing the old sink, vanity and toilet. He has a wonderful attention to detail and did an excellent job. We replaced the light fixture so he is very capable of doing that kind of work. We told him that we were not in a big hurry to get the job done, and I think since he knew he could take his time with it, we were able to get extra attention to detail as a result. We plan to have Josh remodel the full bathroom upstairs and do some minor remodeling in the kitchen. HIghly recommended. He is very professional and just a nice guy.

Did a great job. Came out as promised. Dug deep to remove all signs of mold. Replaced grout and came back a few days later to caulk because grout hadn't dried yet. I appreciated that he didn't just caulk and I'd never have known. I had paid him for 3 hours and he had some time left and offer to replace caulk and grout around my tube. Again, I that wasn't part of our deal but I sure appreciated it.

We originally bought 4 hrs of tile, grout and caulk work from one of Angies list specials. However, when Joshua came to do the work it was discovered that we had extensive water damage behind one wall in the tub area. Found out there was water condensation doing the damage from improper installation of drywall from a previous job). He replaced the drywall with durock (a sheet of concrete) replaced tile, grout and caulk. He spent 4 days here making sure the job was done properly. There was a day he was unable to arrive as scheduled but called us to let us know of his delay and the delay wasn't that bad. We are very pleased with Joshua's work and are planning on using him in the future

Joshua was here when he said he would be, did the work in a professional manner; and when he finished prior to the four hour time frame to which we had committed, he offered to hang a towel rack which had fallen down in the area in which he was working. (It fell through no fault of his.) He did the job cleaning up any mess that was created as the result of doing so. I will definately have him back to provide some of the other services he list on his profile.
