Description of Work: Donald has performed several jobs for me. He is a jack of all trades. Sheetrock, paint, plumbing, electrical etc etc etc. He has ALWAYS been on time, is honest, and he does not overcharge. He has ALWAYS been priced lower than everyone else and has always been very fair with me. I will continue to use him as long as his services are available..

Read above ! I do believe that if it's too low of a bid that they are not going to feel their time is worth it. I never made this bid he did he should have completed it with dignity. I don't have tons of money to pay for these sloppy jobs. Intergrity, honesty, in a person is hard to find and that's exactly what he fooled us to believe regarding himself.
Description of Work: I found him on angies list and contacted him and inquired about the cost to finish installing tile to our shower and around our tub. He seemed interested and said he would come the next day and give me an estimate. I explained how we had a guy that never showed up after I paid him prior to finishing. I also explained we had lost our home twice to chinese drywall and have been treated dirty by individuals we have hired in the past. He agreed on the job and promised to come that weekend then he called and scheduled after labor day and kept saying he had to attend school. He at first seemed to be very thorough then he was agravated about the time it was taking and so he did a crappy job. He even left a few spacers in and grouted over it. He never grouted all over missing several places. He didn't caulk or seal the shower at all joints and now it's leaking. He also cut tiles too short and when we approached him he saidless than I Got Thisgreater than very rudely. He then filled those areas that were shorter with tons of grout and it looks like crap. He left our wall with white mud splatter heavy on our wall and agreed in the beginning to sand and paint. He I feel underbid and then did a rush tacky job. We paid him because we were trying to avoid conflict however we now have to pay someone else to repair his mistakes.

Donald took care of everything! I was very pleased with how it all turned out. He was here early, but I was pleased because I was ready for him. I will be calling him again to do some more plumbing services in the future.
Description of Work: He replaced the wall oven with a new one, including some minor carpentry associated with that. He had to go to the hardware store for an adapter for the gas line. He took care of the old oven and the packaging.

This guy is impressive. He turns up on time, takes pride in his work, and has very reasonable rates. He also cleans up after himself and didn't charge me extra for going to get materials. He charges by the job, rather than by the hour, which I like. He has an impressive list of skills and really knows what he's doing. He's pretty much the best handyman I've ever used (in many decades on this planet). I'm just sorry I'm moving to another state and won't have him around to fix things.
Description of Work: (1) Repair holes in living room ceiling caused by leaks (and plumber). (2) Recaulk around tub and regrout some of the tiled tub enclosure. (3) Insulate and seal the AC return air plenum and fix some problems with the AC ductwork in the attic. (4) Put weatherstripping and thresholds around four doors.
He was great. Honest, reliable, cleaned up behind himself. I'll never hire anyone else, he'll get all my work. He actually gave me an estimate for one job and when it turned out not to take as long as he thought he reduced the price. Most guys would have stuck to the estimate, but he is very fair. It's very obvious he wants to keep his customers and keep them happy, which is rare to find these days.
Description of Work: I have used Mr. Brown for quite a few jobs. He has painted my entire house, interior and exterior. He has done some sheetrock repairs, he's done flooring for me and other repairs and maintenance. He installed cabinets, stained all the baseboards, hung crown. I know there is more, just can't remember everything.
Terrific. Compared to previous people I've had do work, I'll never call anyone else. He will always get my business. He shows up on time and he came everyday during the week until the work is finished. Not like others where they work for a day and then you don't see them for a few weeks or longer. He is organized in his work and kept the disruption of my home to a minimum. He is very friendly and polite and goes out of his way to make sure you are happy with his work.
Description of Work: Don fixed some holes in my kitchen sheetrock, textured and painted. He also painted my den and master bedroom. He installed crown molding in the den. He did some other repairs, installed ceiling fans, fixed a leaky pipe under the kitchen sink, that sort of thing. I just can't remember everything he's done. I'm planning on having him paint the exterior of my home when I get my tax refund. Everything he does it first rate.
