 + 7 moreFrom the very beginning in late October, the painting crew (2 young men) were efficient and worked carefully. They actually seemed very eager to communicate with us as to color, etc. They also tried to be as unobtrusive as possible, which is pretty difficult to do. After the painting was completed, the kitchen backsplash and the hardware.was done...it all went smoothly. The mirror in the powder room was installed. Next, the 2 upstairs bathrooms received new flooring, new countertops and mirrors Also, we had some ongoing minor items that needed attention such as loose towel bars. These were addressed in a timely fashion. We found Elliot to be a very careful craftsman and in turn was available to answer any questions and concerns we had. We do recommend this business to anyone who might have need for remodeling, and/or handyman tasks!
Description of Work: painting of first floor including powder room, all hallways and stairwells. (many required 2-3 coats). painting of 2nd floor; 2 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms, hallway and stairwell. Also removed old wallpaper from bathroom, prepped the wall. installed new kitchen hardware, back splash, painted cabinet edges. installed new lighting fixture in very high landing on stairway. replaced 2 bathroom countertops.replaced bathroom mirrors, tiled 2 bathroom floors.

ceramic tile, handyman service, floor cleaning
 + 1 moreA perfect "happy path" project. It took two days allowing for the grout to dry before it was sealed in the master bath. Elliot called each morning with his approximate arrival time. Everything was cleaned up well, and I now sort of have two new bathrooms!
Description of Work: The master bathroom tile floor in the shower needed cleaning and re grouting Also, the hall bathroom tile grout needed cleaning and the tub re caulked.

drywall, handyman service
 + 0 moreElliot was prompt, pleasant and easy to work with. He replaced about a 2.5 ft wide section section of drywall floor to ceiling plus a 4 ft wide horizontal section about 2 ft off the floor. He then had to match the 1950's swirl pattern of the plaster skim coat. I'm very happy with the finished work.
Description of Work: I had a L-shaped section of drywall to replace/repair, plus some other areas that needed smoothed out. The repair took about 3-4 days to finish in order to accommodate my work schedule and dry time for the drywall mud. The total cost was $190.50 plus the bonus deal which I think was $150 for 3 hrs labor. Quite a bargain for the work & time involved.

ceramic tile, closet systems, flooring contractor, handyman service, lighting, plumbing, home remodeling, interior painters, basement remodeling
 + 7 moreElliott was incredibly responsive to initial and all subsequent requests made of him. His work is of the highest quality and his ideas for renovations improved upon our initial ideas, including the reconstruction of a master bedroom closet, placement of tile and innovative way of assuring good contact with fireplace vertical tiles. His recommended subcontractor to relocate a rec room sink drainage system was also excellent and he stayed to supervise the work to ensure it was correct. Overall, this has been our most satisfying experience with a contractor in our 20 years of owning this home. He will be the first on our call list for any future improvements.
Description of Work: Used Angies List special discount coupon, which allowed great savings. Cut away wood flooring from built-in cabinets; located and turned off shut-of valves to bar sink; removed marble threshold at bathroom entrance; removed and disposed of baseboard heater covers and end caps; removed 220 plug box and installed wire nuts; assisted helper in dismantling bedroom closet and removing debris from premises; removed large waste bag of concrete from work area; worked on pendant lighting; consulted customer on new bar layout and plumbing re-positioning; walk-in closet layout, and bathroom vanity replacement. Subsequent visit: Installed baseshoe (quarter round) in tv room; primed new closet.

handyman service, siding
 + 0 moreWe hired Levinsohn Restoration to repair damage done by woodpeckers (argh!!) to our home's exterior siding. The weather caused the initial repairs to be rescheduled but Elliott was very good about keeping in contact with us through out the process, which was much appreciated. After multiple trips, the repairs were made, siding painted and the house looks great. We'd be happy to have Elliott back (the woodpeckers aren't so welcomed!) and would hire Levinsohn Restoration, again, as well as refer the company to others for the quality of work performed, the communication maintained, his honesty and fair pricing.

handyman service
 + -1 moreWe purchased a coupon on Angie's list for Mr. Levinsohn to complete 3 hours of handyman services. It was a challenge getting a start date as Mr. L had multiple people purchase these coupons and he evidently was finishing up some large remodeling projects. He was forthright in explaining this however, had I known prior to purchase I may have chosen someone else. About 10 weeks after purchase he was available. He is VERY detail oriented and does pristine work. His work is immaculate. He clearly takes his time and as a result is quite slow. I'd rather get a bid per project rather than per hour because of the time factor. He is very polite and professional. There were a few hiccups in arriving on time and scheduling a follow up visit, as the larger projects I believe took precedence over ours. He did call each time and fill us in on the delays. I would use Mr. L again, if time is not a factor and he'd consider a bid per project as mentioned previously.
Description of Work: Mr. Levinsohn did a variety of handyman services for us around the house.

 + -1 moreAbsolutely perfect job. Could not have gone better.
Description of Work: I was the onewho gave Mr. Levinsohn such a bad review earlier this Summer. As it turned out, it was simply a problem with communication. Mr. Levinsohn and I were able to resolve the communication problem and he came over to do the work I originally wanted him to do. He was extremely courteous, professional, and met my expectations completely. At this time I would like to COMPLETELY RESCIND MY EARLIER CRITICISMS AND WHOLE HEARTEDLY ENDORSE MR. LEVINSOHN. I would completely and totally recommend him to anyone. I sincerely regret and take back my earlier comments. Please put him at the top of your list if you are contemplating getting some work done. He was a complete pleasure to work with!!!!!!

handyman service, remodeling, woodworking, house painters, interior painters, cabinet refacing
 + 4 moreElliot is among a rare breed of craftsperson who has the skills and integrity to do work with a level of care and perfection that are hard to find these days.He explained to me all the various options and potential challenges of the work I hired him for. His knowledge of paints, woods, materials, workmanship and aesthetics is impressive.His wife is an interior designer, so he brings an added talent to his work. I would say that Elliot is more than a "handyman." He is a craftsman who knows how to get the job done, and done right, above and beyond my high expectations.Elliot is a sole proprietor and does almost all the work himself, but when we needed an electrician, he referred me to a great electrician who was hard-working and honest.When you want to improve the value, safety and appearance of your home, Elliot is the person to turn to.
Description of Work: When you're looking for someone to help make your home look better and increase its value, you're fortunate to find someone like Elliot Levinsohn. I hired him to do various remodeling items and am impressed by his professionalism, demeanor, craftsmanship, attention to detail, and honesty. He replaced doors, did painting and other activities, and provided expert consultation on kitchen, bath, floor and general remodeling.

countertops, decks, flooring contractor, handyman service, hardwood floor, lighting, replacement windows, interior painters, cabinet refacing, doors
 + 8 moreThis has been a leap of faith for us as we do not live in the same city where the work is being done, and we were relying completely on the feedback this company has received on Angie's list. Yet, from the preparation to the execution, the project has gone as well as we could have hoped. Everything we were told would happened did, and was done well and on time. Mr. Levinsohn has given us his expert opinion on what we wanted done, which has been invaluable in making decisions. As mentioned above, we have another month involved in this project as we wait for countertop, cabinetry, flooring and window treatments to arrive. In the meantime, another ceiling is being smoothed and painted, decks are being stained, and prep work for flooring and kitchen is underway. Trust, competence, and communication/relationship skills were the important traits I was looking for in a handyman for this job, and I got them all in Mr. Levinsohn . More feedback to follow when project is completed.
Description of Work: This has been a work in progress since July 1st, as we are doing a total rehab on a condo in East Lansing. Elliot Levinsohn spent countless hours responding to my many emails and phone calls in preparation and planning for this project. He did a walkthru with us to document all the myriad of items that we wanted done. He has always been more than responsive with calls and email replies. So patient too. It was obvious from the first day we communicated that he is competent and experienced in most areas of remodeling, at least all the areas we needed covered. Having a plan in place, and knowing the costs, has made the scheduling, implementation, and budgeting for the entire project go as smoothly as possible. At this point, Mr. Levinsohn has completed about 1/3 of the work, including smoothing and painting textured ceilings, replacing door hardware, installing GFIs; replacing light fixtures, and installing window hardware, and laundry tub. The other projects in plan include replacing carpet with hardwood, and refacing kitchen cabinets, drawers and counter top. Should be done with project by the end of August.

decks, handyman service, home inspection, woodworking, house painters
 + 3 moreElliot gave inspected the areas of the house (exterior) that we had noticed were rotting. He than inspected all of the exterior (at our request) and found additional rot. He gave us an estimated that was very reasonable. We told him that there was no hurry to get the job done. He scheduled the job at a specific date, showed up on that date and finished up in a timely manner. At all times he was courteous and explained exactly what was needed. He encouraged us to go with a more inexpensive option (plastic), which looks identical to the original wood.
Description of Work: We had severe rot on the post in our front porch, and also on some boards on the margins of our bay window. Elliot replaced the rotted wood, strengthened the support beam on the porch. He rebuilt one of the decorative post by cutting off the bottom and replacing it with a plastic, which looks identical to the original wood. He primed and painted all the effected surfaces. We also had Elliot do an examination of the exterior of the house for any other damage. Elliot was courteous and prompt. He always explained what he was going to do, and when possible, always suggested a lower-cost option.

picture framing, handyman service, remodeling, doors
 + 2 moreI contacted Mr. Levinsohn via email and he responded the very next day. I explained my situation and he agreed to write a proposal which I received within the next week. The job has been completed from start to finish within a very reasonable time period and cost. His work is excellent. Mr. Levinsohn is a professional who does what he says. I believe that he went above and beyond the call of duty working his schedule around my renter's availability and even came back a second time to complete the job when my renter could not be home during the initial time alloted. The repairs are quite satisfactory and most importantly, my renters feel very comfortable with him doing repair work there. I appreciate knowing that I have a trustworthy repair man that can be counted on that does a great job at a reasonable rate. I plan on contacting him again if the need arises.
Description of Work: I needed to hire a general handyman - one that I could trust - to make small repairs (present and future) on a condo that I rent in Michigan as I live in a different state. My renters are brand new as well and I wanted to make sure that a good impression was made for being a landlord who takes care of things in the right manner. The upstairs bathroom fan needed to be replaced, a small crack in the basement wall repaired and new locks and deadbolts installed on the two outside doors.

 + 1 moreThis was not an easy project, but it turned out lovely. Elliot was extremely careful and precise - making sure to build not just a shelving unit but one where the grain was attractive and complimentary to what was around it. I ended up with works of art.
Description of Work: Elliot had previously installed a pre-assembled vanity. There remained an unfinished area as the original vanity was an unusual shape and was built into the wall and floor. Elliot build a beautiful shelving unit out of hickory to compliment the vanity which neatly covered up the holes in the wall and floor. He also built shelving nook to fill in the hole in the title left by the removal of an old heater. The two items make my bathroom positively beautiful and I couldn't be happier.

Description of Work: Elliot came quickly to make an estimate. It was written and described the services he would perform. Dates were selected when the work would begin and he came as promised. The work was to remove and replace a section of ceiling damaged by a leak in the roof. The damaged drywall was removed with the insulation and hauled away. A new plaster board was installed, and painted to match. On the exterior, wood moldings around several windows and the roof vents were scraped, sanded and repainted.

 + 4 moreAfter interviewing four other individuals, we chose Elliott to do our work. His knowledge and experience were immediately apparent and I felt comfortable with his description of what would be done, when, and for how much. He had great ideas and seemed to know exactly what I was looking for. I had a fairly limited budget and he came in a bit under. I was most impressed when he suggested adding a different chair rail and a baseboard to the room. He built both expertly and it really made the room shine. I enjoyed working with his wife, Marla, who is an interior designer. She helped me choose wall colors and the new ceiling lighting. All in all, I would recommend Elliott without hesitation.
Description of Work: We had our home office remodeled, taking it from dark wood and paneling to a bright, airy, and comfortable space.

At the time, I had told him I had one or two smaller things to do. He inquired when he came as to what they were and promptly did them after installing the storm door. As I live alone and am older, this was a tremendous help to me.
