JW Home Improvement

Description of Work: It went ok. Emailed JW photo of free-standing bookcases against the wall to be installed and was given an estimate on the phone that exceeded my budget, basically an additional $700. It would have been more helpful if JW indicated what was possible or achievable within the big deal time but the only thing I was told that JW does not cut corners and to do a proper job, it would take 2 men 8 hours to do the work described.

Description of Work: We emailed the ask if they could instal curtains.

Description of Work: Contacted provider to perform work. Told it was excluded. Got estimate for other work to which I could apply coupon, but far too high.

Description of Work: inspect and adjust garage door- replaced rollers Then added bracing for connection of door to garage door opener which turned out to be more involved than he expected but he held to his estimated cost. Also gave advice for how the GDO mounting shoudl be adjusted.

Description of Work: The vendor was busy and unable to accommodate within our requested time frame. Thanks.

Description of Work: Replaced siding and reframed the bottom of the door to use another more durable material

Description of Work: Bought the big deal to get some ceiling fans installed. The description said they can handle electrical work and do light fixture installation - I figured a ceiling fan wouldn't be any different. They never called to set anything up. So I contacted them only to find out, no - they won't do ceiling fan installations. So - at least I should be getting a refund and will find another handy man that knows how to install a ceiling fan.

Description of Work: It didn't go well, the estimator gave a very high estimate and the contractor wanted a very large deposit regardless of the amount of work. When I called to discuss the amount of service, the contractor was not accommodating and didn't want to do the service.

Description of Work: They were great over the phone and getting us scheduled, but unfortunately we no longer need any work done so this service is not required. Thanks!

Description of Work: Horrible

Description of Work: JW home improvement was a pleasure to deal with. The coupon wasn't exactly what I expected and I decided that I can complete the work myself. Work was originally scheduled to be completed 7/30/2013 however I have requested that the appointment be cancelled.

Description of Work: not much happened here. I called three times, and each time received a message all team members were busy and I should call back. I did leave a phone number the third time, but haven't been called. This is a very highly ranked firm on Angie's list, and I imagine that if I could have been more patient, all would have been arranged, and the work done well.

Description of Work: I purchased a big deal Order Number: 670505 Coupon Codes Handymen -670505-1 for $149 for up to Three Hours of Handyman Service from JW Home Improvement. Under their list of services is • Light fixture replacement. Checking their website at jwimprovements.com suggests they do all handy man services. When I contacted them to replace a ceiling fan, I was told they don't provide this service. I purchased this deal specifically to get this handyman service which the don't perform.

Description of Work: I wanted an estimate before they did the work because there are several small projects I need done. The estimate was for 2 men to fix one window and they would work for however long it took (16-20 hours). This was much longer than seamed reasonable considering the original install time. He was certain that this was a large job. I expected about 3-4 hours not 16-20 hours. This window had a 3/4 inch opening at the top letting cold air in the room. My brother visited over the summer and did a quick fix it in 30 minutes. I have no confidence in this vendor and will not be using them.

Description of Work: The work involved wood floor repair which the company could not do.

Description of Work: Contacted the service provider to have plumbing work done. They said they don't do plumbing work and to call Angie's List for a refund.

Description of Work: It went fine.

Description of Work: installed new exterior lights to house and a few small misc jobs

Description of Work: After purchasing the big deal, I sent an email outlining the basic project I had in mind, and included pictures. I wanted to have my deck and screened porch cleaned (not power washed) with a deck brush; and for the railings to be wiped down with a sponge. When I've done it myself, it took 3-4 hours. After a week with no response, I called and was told that they needed a project detail with pictures, and I reminded her I had sent all the information in an email. She said an estimator would call me. Another 10 days passed without hearing anything. During that time I also reforwarded the email asking for contact; then made another call and finally spoke with an estimator. The estimator indicated that it would take 2 people 8-10 hours to complete. I reiterated that it was not power washing, but just hosing down the deck, using a deck brush, and sponging down the railings. And he confirmed 2 people 8-10 hours. Since I have completed this work myself in 3-4 hours, it seemed cost prohibitive to pay another $880 on top of the $359 to have a deck and porch cleaned. I requested a refund. No service was performed.

Description of Work: We had purchased a big deal for $167 for up to Three Hours of Handyman Service. We were unable to use the big deal due to additional costs for the service. They were professional and responsive and honest with the pricing.
