It took 3 days for them to respond, requesting me to call via email. The representative was then very clear on company policy / cost ... no free estimates and over $100 an hour for a single worker. The justification was that all their employees are licensed professionals ... but way too rich for me without the ability to get an estimate before hiring someone so expensive.

Horrible...took the technician nearly 3 hours to fix the toilet (same work I've completed before in ~1 hour)...and chipped the electric fireplace. The company did deduct the cost of the fireplace from my total bill. $222.00 after the ~ $190.00 deduction for the fireplace damage.

Response from Mr. Handyman of Greater Grand Rapids
We are glad that you acknowledged our efforts to make things right for you. We're frustrated that even after we bought your fireplace for you and after you told us that you were satisfied with the resolution, you still chose to complain online. The broken toilet flange repairs were not the same as a one hour repair you've completed before. Three hours to install the fireplace and to fix the toilet. It's a shame that we gave you the money back that you asked for, considering how you've responded. Please note although we did accidentally damage the fireplace unit, we reimbursed the entire purchase price of the unit per the customer's request. Read our other reviews for a more fair assessment of our professional service.

My handyman, shopped, for paint supplies, got solid wooden doors, made sure of hinges. he then worked in 90 degree weather, got sun burned and after 8.5 hours , my doors were painted and perfectly hung. He worked, stopping for one short break. I could not be happier with the outcome. I would definitely use and recommend this service again.

We completed this job on July 17, 2017. We recognize that all customers would like to have a quick resolution to their repair and maintenance concerns, and that it is even more impactful in a commercial environment like this was; however, tradespeople are extremely busy these days (our business is too) and we worked diligently to provide this service and keep the customer informed during the process. The cost was not different from our initial estimate, so if price had really been an issue, I believe that the customer would not have scheduled the service call. This customer also did not indicate any concerns with quality or professionalism in our follow-up. Please see our other reviews.

Description of Work: I needed to have the toliet grounded to the floor. The toliet was leaking water into the basement. Another company said the toliet couldn't be grounded without making a flooring fix. The other company wanted to charge me over $1,400 but Mr. Handyman was able to fix the toliet and complete the work done for $157.

A carpenter came out promptly, offered good ideas and within a few days had a bid in. We agreed to move forward. Since then, calls and emails were only returned by the supervisor, who prompted us to contact the carpenter, but frequent calls have resulted in no response. The supervisor still responds, but is unable to get the work done for us.

Timely service. Molding was purchased for the perimeter of the tile at the carpet line. The installer drilled through both the wood molding AND the tile pieces. I went downstairs to check the work and caught him after he had drilled through three tiles. I had checked the placement of the square tiles for color and pattern. I did not expect him to drill through the tile for the molding. It was made right but 1/3 of my second choice tiles had to be used and they did not coordinate as well as the the ones I had initially chosen that he drilled through.!
Description of Work: Ceramic tile placed by door in otherwise carpeted room.

This was my first experience with Mr. Handyman, but I'm sure it won't be the last. As a single homeowner with a busy work schedule, I have a pretty narrow window for getting home repairs done, and the list keeps growing and growing. Usually, things don't get done until they become somewhat of an emergency, and that's what happened with my garbage disposal. It hadn't been working for some time, but I just ignored it (who has time to cook anyway?), until this weekend when it stopped draining altogether. After consulting Google and trying a few things unsuccessfully, I submitted an online request for service from Mr. Handyman on Monday night. By Tuesday at lunch time, they called me back to schedule an appointment for the next day (which happens to be my only day off during the week). The phone experience was extremely efficient and friendly. This morning they called to let me know that they had had a cancellation, so that they could come early, which at first didn't work for me, but when my schedule unexpectedly changed, I called back, and they were more than accommodating, and I was able to have Ron come to my home early. They called when he was on his way, and he was able to fix the problem in mere minutes. Not only did he fix what turned out to be a very simple issue, he didn't make me feel silly for not being able to fix it myself, and showed me what to do if it happens again, and even left me with the right tool to use if I need it in the future! He apologized for having to charge me for a full hour, and offered to look at any other projects I might have. He gave me some good advice on some lighting issues in my living room. I'm sure I'll be calling them again for the rest of my to-do- list!

Ron arrived early and got on the list promptly. He made some additional recommendations at my request and his input was greatly appreciated, espcecially when a plumbing question was about galvinized pipe. I like that he was comfortable telling me what was beyond his capcity to tackle, and the recommendation to delay a deck repair until more favorable weather conditions. After the repairs, everything was cleaned up spick and span.

I had a long list of "honey-do" type tasks that needed completing. None of them required a specialist so I searched Angie's List for handymen and found Mr. Handyman. The company sent Ron, who turned out to be a real gem. He removed the truly hideous and ancient vertical blinds, installed three curtain rods, a security bar for my sliding patio door, two safety grab bars in the bathroom, and placed wall hangars for a 30-pound mirror. Since the company charges by the hour, I worried that the handyman would try to stretch out the time, so that I would have to pay more. However, Ron completed these tasks in two hours, which I thought was the appropriate time. After I finish my next honey-do list I will definitely use Mr. Handyman again.

He came out to clean our gutters and found we didn't have debris in them. Since I was paying for a service call anyways we decided to have him tear down ivy off our chimney. He worked very hard and and was able to get the ivy down. I would hire this company again. The only problem I have is how they charge the customer. It worked out for me in my situation. The guy was there about two hours.

We had some plumbing issues and the Plumber had to cut a hole in the wall to reach the pipes they had to replace. So we then had a large hole in the bedroom wall. As we did not want to wait a long time for this to be repaired and I had the week off from work so I could get the room painted real fast and as I knew Mr. handyman could get the job done is a short amount of time I call MR Handyman of Grand Rapids. And just as I had thought they would be able to have the hole fixed in a very short amount of time. While it took 3 trips the hole was fixed and the work done was very good, One complaint I will make is that there is a charge for each trip to your house. And you have to pay for ever day. So that make the price rather high for the work done, Bottom line good job but rather expensive

I was impressed by the quick response from the Mr. Handyman office after sending my initial request for service. Within a day they had us scheduled for early the next week. It was helpful that the same person could repair our foundation issue as well as install the light fixture, saving us from the cost of hiring 2 different professionals. John arrived promptly at 8:00 a.m. as scheduled, and worked efficiently, showing me what he was doing throughout to make sure I agreed. The issue wasn't exactly where we thought it was, and he did a good job of investigating other possibilities and adapting his repair based on that. Hopefully it will work! Update - When John installed the light fixture, he showed me where 2 of the globes didn't fit correctly, said there was a defect. I made a trip to the lighting store where I purchased the fixture, asking about getting replacements, and they told me it wasn't a matter of fit, but the way he put it together. She showed me in the instructions where the part he said didn't fit was supposed to go - inside the globe as a spacer, not on top of it. I know he saw the instructions because he gave them to me for reference. Apparently he didn't look at them. So I had to go back and fix all the ones he hung improperly as well as install the remaining ones. Frustrating when we paid money to have an "expert" do it right. Update 6/18 - After posting my update regarding the incorrect light fixture installation, I received a call from the Mr. Handyman office. The person I spoke with assured me customer satisfaction was very important to them, and after asking a few more questions, asked what she could do to make our experience "right." She offered to reimburse part of the service cost, which felt very fair. Today I received a check in the mail, as well as a coupon for future services. I would use Mr. Handyman again, especially after their quick resolution and concern for a positive customer experience.
