He was responsive before we started, prompt and efficient while doing the work, and reasonably priced. He did a great job and we would use him again.

I hired Eric on a time/material basis to replace a service door on my brother-in-laws garage. He came when scheduled. It was not a perfect situation by far, opening was no where close to square, house siding extremely thick, cold day, etc. But Eric had all the tools needed and patience and expertise to do the job. I would have done myself in the past, but wanted someone with hopefully more experience than I in case something went wrong. I was not disappointed by choosing Eric. He worked steady, not fast. It took a total of 6 hours, but the results were fantastic. The outside of the home where the frame meets the 1" siding that was not square when he started. When he finished it looked like an experienced cabinetmaker had done the work. An extremely well done retrofit by a "handyman". A tight seal all around the door and he cleaned up the area and hauled the old material and door away. In review, he was expensive per hour, but the work was exceptional. Would definitely hire Eric again if I ever need work done on my own home that I do not want to tackle myself. Thanks Eric!!

I called Eric after seeing he had excellent reviews on Angie's List. He promptly returned my call, got in touch with my neighbors to schedule repairs, and according to them, did a beautiful job. They showed me his work and it was flawless. Very professionally done. I won't hesitate to call him again when I need a handyman.
Description of Work: My shower leaked into the condo below mine. The leak was fixed, but I needed someone to repair the ceiling of my neighbor's bathroom ceiling.
Everything went fine. Eric came three times, once for an assessment, returned to fix broken plaster, a third time to replace damaged facia.
Description of Work: Excellent work, prompt and reliable.

We usually have him come in every 6 months because he is highly reliable and his handyman work is great. We usually call him a week or two in advance and let him know how many items we have on our list, then he does a great job of scheduling us at a time that is mutually convenient.
Description of Work: Eric performed various handyman activities. Eric does work for us regularly (as he is really good and my husband is not the most handy). This time he fixed a cabinet door, fixed a leaky sink, re-grouted the shower, and fixed a bathroom fan, plus a few other small items).

See info provided above - he did a great job.
Description of Work: Opened wallboard where a large crack had developed, to check for water damage, replaced wallboard, and did a great job of sanding the new material down and blending with old wallboard. Also, installed bathroom tile above the shower stall, and did a great job with that also. Was on time, was conservative with his time estimate to complete the work, and worked quietly and efficiently. Did a very good job in cleaning up after the projects were completed. Satisfied the "wims of a very pickey client". I'd call Eric to come back at any time for my handyman solutions.

I have nothing but good things to say.
Description of Work: Eric's Handyman Service built a ramp. He moved some old steps and made new ones, too. The handrail was made out of wood.
Eric arrived right on time and we discussed tasks to be done and he set right to work. I needed to leave mid-morning for a funeral and was concerned he would not finish his work, but he assured me he would leave the outside work til last and I could leave when I needed to. I trusted him to do the work and would have had no problem leaving. As it turned out, I was still at home when he finished. All work was done in an expeditious manner and price so reasonable for work done. I am a widow and would definitely call Eric again. He is my "go to guy" for handyman services.
Description of Work: This is the 2nd time I've used Eric, the first being a year ago for an emergency drain stoppage. This time I had a "laundry list" of tasks for him including" toilet repair, electrical switch, kitchen cabinet doors which had gone a little"wonky" and needed leveling, along with 3 shingles on roof that needed replacement (they had blown off in wind storm). I had extra shingles for replacement. Eric also helped move couch in living room and a heavy rocking chair from deck to garage.

Eric is a very professional worker who is competent, immaculate and efficient. He gets the job done perfectly without wasting any time. I had a major problem that someone else could not fix and Eric devised solutions and got the work done quickly. I felt his charges were extremely low for the amount of work he did and the time he spent doing it. I will always use him in the future, and I highly recommend him.
Description of Work: Someone took off my shower door when my husband was in a wheelchair and stored it in my garage. Then this person (before I joined Angie's list) was unable to put the door back on when we wanted it on again. Eric had no trouble. He installed the shower door and it works like new. He fixed my instant hot water perfectly. Moved furniture for me. Installed a light bulb in a very high ceiling and fixed a pole for me so that he could reach the area. Fixed a chair and installed a smoke detector. Everything was done quickly and efficiently and in a very clean manner.

He is very competent. The sink started leaking so he came out and repaired it but then the other side started leaking which told me that it was a problem with the equipment. He didn't charge me the first time but then he charged a minimal price to repair it the second time. I think that was very fair.

The bottom line is that Eric is very good. He knows how to tackle seemingly difficult tasks and brings with him what he needs to get the job done and done right. How busy a contractor is is a great indication of how good they are. Plan ahead, Eric is very busy.
Description of Work: A mounting bolt of a toilet mounted on a concrete floor came loose and the toilet was unable to be properly secured. Eric removed the toilet, repaired the mounting flange, and installed new bolts. not an easy job as the existing iron flange needed to be ground down.

He told me that, as a one-man operation, he was uninterested in providing an estimate on a job he would not be hired to do -- sort of a "if I enter your home, then it's only to do the job" type of attitude. He specifically said he was not interested in a job that I was also going to get 1-2 other handymen to look at completing. While I can understand his apparent time constraints, I wonder if the word-of-mouth business is that good. My previous experience tells me that the lowest cost professional is not necessarily the best one. For my purpose, his visit would have essentially allowed me to determine if I were comfortable entering into a business relationship with him. I can emphatically state that I am not.
Description of Work: Called to see if he could do the work on a list of item (light plumbing, light carpentry).

This was a small job to replace a defective siding panel but I had no extra siding available. Eric indicated that he was booked for a month but that he would stop by and take a look and let me know when he could fit it in. He did just that. Of the several companies that I called he was the only one responsive enough to actually look for and locate a possible replacement siding. He did a great job with the actual siding replacement. He was also very knowledgeable about general repairs and offered great advice on other repair activities. I would definitely use Erik again.

Everything he did was good, although we had to give him some advice on how to fix things. We were happy with his work, although my husband thought it was a little high for what he did.
Description of Work: He replaced the faucet in our bathroom sink. Our door was leaning forward and scraping, and he put a screw in the hinge and tightened it up. The backing of the kitchen counter was coming loose, and he screwed that in. The floor in the living room had a gap between the rug and door sill and he put in a piece of wood and screwed it down. The wood covering the edge of carpeting was loose, and he glued that down. He also noticed the ice dam on the roof, and he offered to climb up and put some ice melt up there and did so. He also installed a railing on our basement stairs.

Excellent worker and very knowledgeable about everything that I have asked him to do.
Description of Work: I had Eric come out to plant 8 bushes that I bought. He came on time and did an excellent job with the bushes. When hewas going to water them, he noticed that one of my outdoor spigots didn't work. I've always had to turn the water on and off from the basement because the last quote I got to fix it was over $300, and I didn't want to pay that. He took a look at it, took it apart, changed a washer and it worked perfectly. I've used Eric in the past for more complicated work, building a door for my shed, building a stone wall, and he has always done excellent work, I will definitely use him again in the future, and I have recommended him to friends as well,

This is the second time Eric completed some work for us. As usual, he was honest, professional, and easy to work with. Eric was extremely busy when I called to set-up a time but was able to fit us in. He communicated well in advance of any schedule changes. He completed the work efficiently and made sure everything was completed. I would highly recommend Eric!

Eric initially didn't think he'd have time to fix our leaking bathtub drain. He said he'd come over to give us an estimate and a date he could complete the work. When he showed up, he was polite and professional; we immediately felt comfortable with him in our house. He looked at our drain and surprised us by saying he had the needed part in his van. Thirty minutes later we had a new tub drain and he also cleaned out a clogged drain. He was so good we asked him to come back and help us with some exterior house repairs. As he was getting ready to leave, a dog we were babysitting escaped our house due to my own error. The dog ran down the street several blocks away. Seriously, this dog should be called Houdini. A few minutes later Eric calls us and says he found the dog and would wait for us to come get it. We were very appreciative of this.
