Description of Work: They sent over the same fellow for 3 visits who was quite assured and seemed efficient and did a pretty good job. I have no idea if the cost was finally a bit steep and he let me know that a tip would be much appreciated . I guess it was pretty good.

We were very satisfied. Bob was very responsive. He called back the same day I contacted him. He was very helpful on the phone. Ted was very punctual and did a very good job on the baseboard. The job ended up taking longer than originally stated (estimated at 1 day - spread over several), but that was mostly due to my buying stain that required longer dry time.
Description of Work: Stained, trimmed and installed about 80 feet of baseboard moulding in our basement.

There was a $50 charge for the estimate & I was told that it would be deducted out of the final bill. I received the bill & completely overlooked it. I noticed a while later that they didn't take out the $50 deduction. I would use them in the future & perhaps mention this for future work.

Bob doesn't work on roofs so in the end we chose a different contractor. However, we recommend him based on his prompt and efficient communication, his reasonable quote, and knowledge of his field.
Description of Work: Various jobs, including new sashes and repair to windows, fixing of inside and outside doors, repair to rotted out railing, plugging of squirrel entry to house, and repair to leaky garage roof.

Fabulous! Ted is knowledgeable, and informative, filling me in every step of the way. Everyone I spoke with at the company was cordial and they made a point of calling to reschedule me, because they had to finish a job elsewhere: No problem, I said, if that were me I'd want my job finished before they went off to another. Well, that happened when they saw the entire damage. They had to reschedule a few other people. VERY good experience and I will use them again.
Description of Work: Termites & ants had eaten their way through the timber below my front door, or so I thought. Once Ted, who was terrific, began removing the siding and compromised areas, they revealed further damage. A previously thought 1 day job became 3 days. Ted kept me 100% informed. Actually, they had to reschedule this job2 x's: once to continue on another job.....they called me and were very nice. Money-wise: excellent! Original est. = $2500.00 - 3000.00. I cannot say enough about Ted and this company. Work was excellent....even patched my hardwood floor just inside the doorway.

My wife and I had signed a purchase and sale on the sale of our home. The Buyers had a few minor but time consuming repairs that they asked to have repaired. The items included fixing a sizable water damage hole in a closet from a leaky shower upstairs (previously repaired) In addition some receptacles in the kitchen and bath needed to be upgraded to GFCI. Rory and his crew from Handymatters did an exceptional job. The quality of work was excellent and they finished ahead of schedule. When the job was completed they cleaned up and left no trace of work having been done. With the time crunch and the other duties of the sale it was nice to be able to leave this aspect to their company. I would recommend them wholeheartedly.
Description of Work: Home Sale Prep including repair a water damage hole in closet. Sheetrock, plaster and paint. Also upgraded kitchen and bath with GFCI receptacles prior to closing.
