I had a list of "need to get done but seemed like a hassle" items for my house and Larry took care of them for me in less than 2 days and for a very fair price. Thanks, LB

Thanks Larry! Love the paint job in the kitchen and dining room! Great job, even my mom loved it and she's a very harsh critic!

We hired Done-Rite to erect some metal shelves in our basement and garage. Larry and his crew were very responsive, very professional, and finished the job in 1/2 the time they originally estimated. We would definitely recommend them, and will definitely use them again for projects around our home that we choose not to take care of ourselves.

Larry called me right away. I needed the door on our bathroom trimmed after adding new flooring. He was busy, but fitted us in the next day. He arrived on time and went right to work fixing the door.a He also installed a vent over my kitchen stove I had sitting there. If you help don't hesitate to call Larry at Done Rite. I've already scheduled my next project. I feel lucky to have found him.

Larry and his crew completed a lot of the projects in our kitchen remodel, which involved working with the many challenges of an older home. They were prompt and willing to work around my schedule. Larry even called a few days after the job was complete to follow up on an issue that required us to bring in a licensed plumber. The customer service is exceptional, which is rare these days. I would recommend them!

Home Advisor only gave me one contractor's name. I have begun attempting the project myself, and I am not doing a great job if it. Not that happy overall with Home Advisor.

Larry was a pleasure to work with. He gave me a couple of options for our projects and was honest and up front about time and cost for each. I wish that he charged by the half hour, because we went 20 minutes into the last hour and I was charged for the full hour. Apart from that, I was very pleased.

Larry was fantastic! He repaired a very large crack in our drywall and did an amazing job. He worked very carefully to make sure the repair was seamless. Throughout the process, Larry was honest, worked efficiently, and was a pleasure to work with. This was our first time hiring Larry for a job and we were so pleased with his work that we're already writing up a list of more work we'd like him to do.
