Project went great, as we expected it to. We've hired Handiworks multiple times in the past and we'll definitely do so again! Mike and Nancy do wonderful work and are great to work with, and we couldn't be happier with how things turned out. Our bathroom, which had bothered my wife for years (we had a slab leak, and a rather large and well known local construction company did a subpar job repairing the drywall previously), looks like new. Outside work looks great and it was a great relief to have those issues taken care of before they became bigger problems. Our flooring transitions had been glued down but had repeatedly come loose, and they're now secured firmly into the floor. The project took about 2 1/2 days accounting for the weather (exterior work had to work around some rainy days), and the estimate was very reasonable and the final price came in under that. We highly recommend Handiworks!
Description of Work: Interior: Fix crumbling and uneven drywall in downstairs half bath (rather large area that stemmed from a slab leak years ago), then repaint entire room. Secure/replace loose quarter round and hardwood transition pieces Exterior: Repair of several areas of wood rot around front door trim, rear door, and dining room window, along with painting trim Secure loose brick moulding at back door

Mike and Nancy were great! And so nice!!! They did extremely thorough, organized and neat work. We asked them to install tile we had purchased as DYI project but found it would be too difficult for us. The tile was harder to work with being glass tile but Mike had no problem cutting every piece precisely and Nancy was awesome at laying it beautifully just as we asked (even with some confusion from me and my husband on how to lay it out :) The project took a week but everyday we came home you would hardly notice they had been there because everything was cleaned and tidied and put away which I think is the sign of very respectful people. I will say my husband comes home during the day and they seemed not to want to bother him so they would leave when he arrived which was fine except we didn't mind them working even with him home, just so they could finish it. So I think that was probably the only thing that we would comment on that didn't go perfectly but was still not a big problem. i just called and told them not to worry about his being home and they were fine with that. We love our tile! It totally completes the kitchen now and Mike and Nancy Dunn are to thank for helping us complete and doing an amazing job!
Description of Work: Installed glass tile throughout kitchen.

They arrived on time, got right to work! they did it all to fix my columns! told them if they ever made signs for their business I would put in my yard! they were very professional too. took me through the process after they straightened the columns. showed me where the wood had rotted out and what they were doing to fix them and what they used to patch, seal, and ultimately led to beautiful restored century old columns. I really like what they did. If I need them for any other restoration work, I'll call them.
Description of Work: they repaired 100+ yr old columns on my house that is equally as old, jacked up porch roof. thus straightening them cause they were near falling off my brick under columns. patched all the rotted wood inside, sealed up, etc.

The first time we hired Mike and Nancy it was to install an electrical box in the ceiling so that a fan could be installed, and the installation of an outlet behind our television (so it could be mounted to the wall without the power cord being visible). From beginning to end we were more than thrilled with their responsiveness, quality of work, and price. Now we've hired Mike and Nancy for some home repairs that are again just a bit out of our expertise. We're planning on having another electrical box installed in the ceiling above the stairs leading to our basement (for a light fixture), and a 2'-3' section of our wall dismantled and replaced in our basement where we once had a plumbing issue resolved. Mike was extremely flexible on times to have the work done, and was very patient with my wife and I as we considered other work in our home (trust me, we have a long list) -- even offering some great advice. While we may only see Mike and Nancy once or twice a year for their services, they've almost become like family to us. They're our go-to team for work around the home, and we look forward to using them again and again well into the future.

Can't tell you how the job went because I am still waiting for them to do it. Never returned email or texEither they are really busy, or really negligent. Again, disappointed.
Description of Work: Contacted Mike Dunn back in April for estimate of repairing floor and door in foyer of home. He returned message right away. We talked back and forth via texts and I told him I was flexible to when to do the job as I was home on medical leave. We spoke again in July when I told him that I'd like to get the quote as soon as he was able. His reply was latter half of August. I said fine and he and Nancy came on Sept 6th for the quote. They were super nice people and I felt like it was a good choice. Got the estimate mid Sept. and immediately replied - "sounds good - when can we start?" Never heard anything back. I texted him on Oct. 1st to see if he had gotten the email and he replied to send it again and so I did. Never heard anything back from them and it's November 14th. Disappointed in communications.

Response from HandiWorks
How unfortunate it is when technology fails and precipitates misunderstandings. We promptly returned every text message but unfortunately, never received any emails from this member. Naturally, we assumed that she was either busy, had postponed the project, or had decided to contract with another provider. We were very disappointed because we really liked her and thought we were a good match!

It went smooth, as usual. Very professional couple who arrive when they say they will, get right down to it and get it done very smoothly and efficiently. Whereas most of the time when you have service people come to your home, you just cannot wait for them to leave. With Mike and Nancy, you really hate to see them go. They are cheerful, accommodating and their work is excellent. This is the second time I have had them come to my home and I am very satisfied.
Description of Work: Patched damage done to wall. Installed hardware for and hung two sets of curtains. Cut down bolts and installed toilet bolt covers in bathroom. Removed old deck door weather insulation, obtained and installed new insulation.

Mike and Nancy were very professional yet friendly and easy to work with. I pre-purchased a pet door that I wanted installed in an exterior wall, in a rather awkward spot in my kitchen. They did a very thorough evaluation of the job at hand before they did any cutting and even had to make a trip to Lowes to get some things for the electrical work. (I didn´t tell them ahead of time that there may be electricity involved). The pet door that I ordered had some really challenging steps to get it installed in the wall but they read the directions until it made sense and did a great job. They also did a great job cleaning up once they were finished. I am very happy with the work that they did and I plan to ask them back next spring to do some other work.

They are just such a nice couple and were very responsive when I had to reschedule. The job was difficult due to the age of my faucets but they hung in there and got in done in beautiful fashion. Everything looks great and works beautifully. They were very neat and tidy in their work. I had zero clean up after they left. I'd had several estimates and they were very much in the normal range of what I was quoted for the work I needed. I will definitely use them again as a 30 year old house always needs something done and sometimes it's just more than I am willing to take on.
Description of Work: They replaced a kitchen faucet, 4 bathroom faucets, a bathroom light fixture and the garbage disposal switch. Oh and fixed the toilet paper holder where I'd messed up getting it started.

Great. I cannot say enough about this nice couple. Will and Nancy Dunn are not only competent and very professional but they made the otherwise agonizing experience of moving bearable and made me feel I could depend on them, which I had to do again the very next day. I will definitely call them again.

They were out of this world. They did an excellent job and it was just exactly what we wanted. We gave them a little more for the price because we think it wasn't enough.
Description of Work: I got a gentleman to come in here and said he could put in a shower. Well, he put the walls in which is all the way to the ceiling and he did a pretty good job but everything was just so-so from which is what I wanna do and he made a mess. We had to call in two people to finish the tub, the bottom of the shower, and just the towels wouldn't stick. All of a sudden, the edge of the step-over started falling apart, so we called in Mike and Nancy.
