This company is used exclusively by the management company that I engaged to manage rental property that I own. Because the management company did not bid out jobs and used this company exclusively, the prices were not competitive and, in some cases, just plain outrageous. For example, to replace an over-the-range microwave, they submitted a bid of approximately $800, which is absolutely ridiculous. As a result, I purchased the microwave myself for approximately $200 and had them install it for $179, which totalled less than $400 for everything. If you consider using this company, be sure to get multiple bids for any work.
Description of Work: This vendor provided general handy man services for a rental property, most recently installing an over-the-range microwave.

Response from Tooling Around Town Inc
Hi (removed member name). Thank you for allowing me to complete so many repairs in your home over the last several months; I'm sorry to hear you're upset about the microwave. Here is why the big difference in price occurred. I researched and placed my cost on which microwave would be commensurate with the quality of your home. You purchased an appliance for $200.00, mine was $499.00 plus tax. Then add a trip charge which, includes material gathering, then add installation cost. I also had to wait for you to pickup the appliance and it was installed properly, within 2 days.

John Duret came to the house to take the perfect measurement of the "old" door because it was not a conventional size. He then promptly ordered the door, and we waited until it came in for install. As soon as the door was in, he contacted me and installed it the next business day. Excellent work, timely and the best part, he cleaned up the area like he was never here! I would highly recommend Tooling Around Town for your handyman needs.
Description of Work: Replacement of a utility door to a code firedoor from garage to house. Custom ordered the door due to the size.

Description of Work: Mr. Duret recently completed a six room repair and paint job. We had an outdated intercom system removed that left sizable holes in the walls. Mr. Duret installed drywall, applied primer, and then painted the appropriate areas. This was a multi step process that required several visits. He also repaired the drywall and painted one of our bathrooms. As with past jobs, Mr. Duret was prompt, efficient, and courteous. We would highly recommend him to anyone in need of handyman, painting, or other services.

gas leak repair

John Duret from the time he arrived to the completion of the job was very professional and committed to assuring our safety because of the nature of repairs can be dangerous. John went out of his way to make sure that problem was corrected and that we are not noticing any further leaks, and we are very thankful. Outstanding Job!
Description of Work: We had just purchased our home and noticed the smell of gas in the kitchen around the stove, and called John and he arrived within hours and discovered the leak, and repaired it on the spot. We are thankful that it was corrected before it became a serious problem.
