Mark was very professional, prompt, and has excellent communication. He gave us an estimate, which was reasonable, along with product information regarding the 'gutter guard' type of material. Unfortuately, in the meantime, we had contacted another 'handyman' service that was on Angie's List and ended up going with that person. But it was a tough decision, actually a toss-up. We would contact Mark and use him. We believe he would have done a great job also.
Description of Work: Mark gave us an estimate for a gutter repair, a gutter guard type material, and a small roof repair.

Response from HANDY HELPER
It was a pleasure offering this customer an estimate. I would have been happy to perform this work for her. Perhaps the next time that she has a need for a handyman at her home in Traverse City, I will come to mind. I am always happy to assist.

We highly recommend Mark!!
Description of Work: Mark Norton did an outstanding job for us start to finish. He came highly recommended. He did most of the work BEFORE we even met him in person. Very professional, very thorough, highly skilled, and very reasonably priced. He helped us finish renovating our condo by doing tile work, wood working, sheet rock, appliance installation, cabinet fabrication and painting. He did a great job cleaning up afterwards too.
