It seems there was some miscommunication on the original estimate, which caused the estimate to be well under the actual amount of hours it should have taken. And the contractor was an extreme perfectionist, so that took longer than was really necessary for the value of my condo. But when I was frustrated with the increasing hours, the owner contacted me and we talked through my frustration and came to an agreement we could both live with. As a first timer in hiring contractors, a little advice: be very specific about what you want, even to the point of annoyance so that you are both on the same page. Also let them know the expectation level: do you need a super high quality job or can you settle for adequate? And ask a ton of questions so that you understand why something is taking longer than you think so that you can understand the process.
Description of Work: Patched the walls and ceilings of my living room and half bathroom. Also painted the ceiling in the living room and applied one coat of paint on the walls of the living room.

Fabulous, they worked with our schedules and were very creative in figuring out how to get a slider to fit in a small area. They were professional, the work was topnotch and the price was very reasonable. Having used them since then, they have referred great people for tuckpointing and painting. Definitely using them again.
Description of Work: Installed a new slider, removed the old window, added an electrical outlet and light.

Mr. Handyman was scheduled to arrive between 1:30 and 2:00 p.m. John arrived at 1:35 p.m. and was very personable. I was concerned he might not be able to hang two of the mirrors by himself, but he said he would try to hang them on his own. He had the first mirror hung in fifteen minutes. He spent the next hour hanging the towel hardware and the over the toilet cabinet. After re-assessing the other two mirrors, he called dispatch for another worker to help (this was 3;35). He went to Lowe's to pick up hardware for one of the mirrors. When he returned 15 minutes later, the other worker arrived. They worked together to hang the two window blinds and the two mirrors and finished up around 5:45 p.m. or so. I didn't feel either John or the other worker took too long with each job; they did the work carefully and professionally, however, I felt the $400 charge was too high. In future, if I use Mr. Handyman again, it will be for a job that is less diverse and definitely for a shorter timeframe.
Description of Work: Relocated and hung three large mirrors, hung two window blinds, put up two towel rods, two hooks and an over the toilet cabinet in a bathroom.

The CEO of this company responded promptly to my request for service. Although I have not yet scheduled service to be performed by this company, I plan to in the future because of the provider's responsiveness and professionalism. I expect that the services will be performed as professionally as the response and will write a further review once services are contracted and performed. The perceived urgency of the services for which I contacted this company has abated, and I have other financial priorities to address before the services I plan to contract with this company.

Bob was so very polite! He was extremely careful to have shoe covers on each time he entered the house. He asked permission before using the utility sink to wash his brushes/rollers. He saw what parts were needed for the kitchen cabinet doors and purchased them, bringing them back on his second visit and installing them. He did lots of patching/painting sheetrock. He patched and painted wood shoe molding. He went way beyond what we had expected to be done. I can highly recommend him and will certainly use this company again for odd handyman jobs. The lady at the office was also very polite an gracious.
Description of Work: Some patching and painting, aligning cabinet doors in kitchen, sealing grout in tile shower, patching and painting base molding, installed magnet catches in kitchen cabinets, general touch-ups.

They were with me all the way. They also came to my home to inspect how the work was being done.
Description of Work: I had three windows with the seal broken. They were the plain two pane windows in a bowed window. I wanted the type of window that had the blinds between the panes of glass. The first and second set of windows didn't work properly....I sent them back. The third set works great. These windows were done by a sub-contractor through Handyman and both were excellent.

I called the week before to make sure they would pick up the medicine cabinet from the store and dispose of the old one. There was an extra fee for this but it was only $5 more than renting a truck and paying a disposal fee. On the day of installation, they picked up the medicine cabinet from the store and brought it inside to replace the old one. The technician, Bob, arrived promptly and began work. After surveying the site, he knew exactly what to do. He completed the job in a timely manner and wore shoe protectors that were not filthy. The work area was cleaned. . The price was within the amount quoted and the 10 percent off coupon for being an Angie's List member really helped. Overall, I was very satisfied with the workmanship and price.
Description of Work: Replaced a 4 ft. tri-fold beveled mirror medicine cabinet in the bathroom.

Excellent workmanship and very fast response. A little more expensive than I would have liked but I was happy with the work.
Description of Work: I was trying to spruce things up for my daughters upcoming high school graduation open house. While painting the trim around my garage door I noticed a soft spot. After removing all the soft material I realized the repair was beyond my abilities. I called Mr. Handyman and explained my dilemma. They sent a repair man out the next day and he replaced the rotted lumber with new cedar and caulked around both of my garage doors.

Overall, I'm mildly satisfied. I would have liked the work to be faster and to actually have more completed.
Description of Work: We had some drywall replaced in our basement. One big patch from where previous owners left a wall unfinished and then we needed two smaller areas replaced due to cat urine damage. The big patch was done great but the handyman didn't not appear to want to replace the cat damaged drywall. He tried suggesting to just seal the areas. I let him know that I wanted the drywall replaced because I know that it was too damaged for just sealing. In the end he just replaced the drywall in one spot and patched another. I would have been happy to have all the drywall replaced but seeing as he already took 5 hours for the other work, I didn't want to pay more.

They were fantastic. We were in the middle of selling our house. So, we had projects that needed to be done, but I had to reschedule them probably three or four times for various things and they were very nice about it, very professional, and worked around the house. We are definitely gonna use them.
Description of Work: I used Mr. Handyman of Greater Grand Rapids about a month ago. They fixed a leak in the roof and they repaired drywall damage in the ceiling and painted it. They are gonna be putting in a door when we move out. The house was remodeled in 1999 and they moved the kitchen from one part of the house to another. We think it was the hood vent in the kitchen that they had cut the pipe off and it was put straight up through the roof so rain was coming down through that. They actually capped that and put a new L-shaped pipe on it so that water wouldn't run down and then repaired all the damage that they caused.

I called Mr. Handyman in the morning for installing 2 ceiling fans. The lady who answered the phone was very friendly and professional. And I was very happy that she could find someone to work on the same afternoon. She sent me the detail of what we talked about through an e-mail right away. About 30 minutes prior to the handyman's arrival, someone in the office called and informed. The handyman came on time, and he did his job done quicker than what he estimated. I'm glad that I found this company thru Angie's List, and happy to report another satisfying job report.

Repairman arrived promptly at 8:00 am. He accessed the problems we had and got right to work. I was very impressed with his work and the end results. We are older and no longer are able to tackle these jobs ourselves and I believe Mr. Handyman is definitely the answer for our home repairs. I am already starting my next list for them to do!! Great experience. Thank you.

I asked the person who answered the phone (who odentified herself as one of the owners) for a quote for installation of laminate flooring. She took my information (including phone and e-mail), gave me the hourly labor charge ($81), then said that she would speak with a technician and get back with me concerning an estimate of what would be involved and how much time it might take. I never heard back from her.

Response from Mr. Handyman of Greater Grand Rapids
It is particularly frustrating to read this review because we had made a couple of attempts to contact this possible customer. We wanted to do this job! We are conscientious about getting back to people because their requests are the life-blood of our business. We put together an estimate and sent it via email. We sent it a second time, a week before this unfavorable posting, and we still got no response. Perhaps the email address was incorrect or the message was blocked. We don’t always know what level of urgency is associated with each project. Some people inquire about projects that need to be done right away, and others have a much longer time-line in mind. We try to be mindful of these things when we provide an estimate, and try not to badger people who have contacted us. We encourage our clients and potential customers to call us if they have any questions or concerns, and we maintain a 24-hour live answering service to facilitate that. Unfortunately, this individual chose to criticize us on-line rather than to call us and ask about the estimate that she apparently did not receive. As a final note, this person has posted an hourly rate for our service that is not accurate—maybe it is from another service that she called.
