"Thanks for your positive review and for taking the time to share your good experience with other members. We are glad that you were pleased with the service and look forward to working with you again soon."
"Thank you for the positive review! It's always nice to hear that our customers are satisfied with our service and plan to use our company again."
At the end of the four hours, I had a brand new ceiling fan, a dishwasher that worked and a front light that worked...YEAH!!!
"Thanks for your positive review. Glad that everything went well."
We did reach out to the company and they are in the process of trying to fix it. It's not easy since we are no longer the home owners. Hopefully it gets fixed right and it gets fixed quickly.
"The member is correct that she reached out to us and I was very disappointed to learn of her experience. I apologized to her for the poor work and the inconvenience. We are working with the new homeowner to get this corrected quickly. I genuinely appreciate the time the member took on the phone to explain to me all of the details so I can correct the situation with her, but also with the technician. There is a lot about this situation that is frustrating for both me as a business owner and for the homeowner. What is important at this point, is standing behind our service and getting the situation corrected. In any human endeavor, mistakes will be made. The question is, does your contractor stand behind his work? We will get this situation corrected quickly and I look forward to both the member and I being able to post an update to this situation soon."
"Thanks for the straight "A" review! We appreciate your sharing your experience with other members and thank you for choosing Mr. Handyman . I'm glad that you were pleased with the service and look forward to working with you again soon."
"Thanks for choosing Mr. Handyman"
"There were some issues on this job. I've been trying to reach the member since the day of the service and he has not returned our calls. I agree that the charges were excessive and am trying to reach the member so we can rectify the situation. I should point out that these are commercial doors. Hardware on fire rated commercial doors is much more expensive than what you use on the home. There were some communication issues - we made two advance visits and I went by the job site on the day of the service - we were originally shown 3 doors, than 2, and on the day of the service it was only one - except that there was now a problem with a different "2nd" door. We purchased hardware that did not get used. The tech should not have charged for that (we can return it). So that's part of the discrepancy. I hope that after we reach the member to discuss this situation that we can reach a fair solution and maybe he will be kind enough to modify this review. I would encourage all members to contact the vendor first. In this case it would have been as easy as returning a phone call. Before you determine that you "paid too much", you should address your concerns to the company that did the work. If you are dealing with an A rated company that has won multiple Super Service Awards (we've won 11), the chances are that they will work with you to correct any issue that has come up along the way."
"Thanks for the positive review! We are glad to know you were pleased with the service and look forward to working with you again soon."
Typical handyman services were rendered (hanging picture, mirror, curtain rods, shelf in bathroom, change light fixture, caulking base boards of stairwell etc...) to include moving a couch from the living room to the basement. I purchased the 4 hour coupon from Angie's list for a 15% discount. I read the fine print on the coupon (2 hours for 2 men and 4 hours for 1 man). However, when I spoke with the scheduler regarding an additional person just to move the couch, she agreed that he would only be needed for 1 hour. Prior to the services being rendered, the scheduler did not inform me that there would be an extra charge for the additional person to assist with moving the couch. She just stated that "it would be fine" for an an additional person for the extra hour under the Angie's list coupon. After all services were rendered, I was charged an additional $127 for the additional person for 1 hour and "materials" (caulk and nails/screws). It was not made clear that caulk, nails, and screws were considered "materials." Items like light fixtures, fence hardware, and actual items to be installed, to me, are considered "materials." The technician was not the most professional person and all of the services on my list were not completed within the time frame I purchased. My list was given to the scheduler prior to the technician coming to my home. Overall, I would not recommend this company to any family, friends or foe. I have experienced better customer service, paid less than what I was charged and for a longer length of time than what I paid for with this company. The handymen I usually use were not available and I needed items done around my home prior to a function I was having the upcoming weekend. The Angie's discount was not a discount at all.
"We take customer satisfaction very seriously and our Customer Service Representative (CSR) spent considerable time on the phone trying to explain the charges. I notice from the member's comments that she understood the difference between having 2 men for 2 hours OR having 1 man for 4 hours. We agreed that having the helper for one hour was a good idea "to hold down the cost." The member had the technician for 4 hours and the helper for 1 hour. She had a coupon for 4 hours of labor (which she purchased at a $72 discount). So between the two men there was five hours of labor. I'm not sure why the customer thought a four-hour coupon would cover five hours, but I know that we were very clear about how it worked when we booked the job. I'm also not sure how to respond to the fact the member did not understand caulk, nails and screws are materials. We spend thousands of dollars per year on these kinds of items and wouldn't stay in business long if we gave them away for free. I listened to both the calls between the customer and our CSR. Everything was clearly explained, both before the job, and when the customer called back to ask about these "extra" charges. The CSR was polite, patient and thorough on both occasions. The total bill would have been $597 if not for the Angie's List coupon. Adding the $127 she paid to us to the $398 coupon that she purchased equals $525, so that is where the discount comes in. Again, very sorry that we were not successful in communicating how our service works, but upon thorough review I can say that we were true to our word and the charges were appropriate."
"Thanks for sharing your experience with other members. It was a pleasure working with you."
"Thanks for your review. Yes, Mr. Handyman is great with that "to do" list of odd jobs. One guy can do a wide variety of tasks so you don't have to schedule multiple appointments to get all of your repairs and maintenance done."
"Thanks for your review. Sorry we weren't able to rate an "A" I will follow up with this member to find out how we could have done better."
