Jim's Small Stuff Handyman Service

HE DID A GREAT JOB. SHOWED UP ON TIME.

HE IS WONDERFUL. HE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND. I WILL HAVE HIM BACK OUT.

HE DID A GREAT JOB. THE DOOR IS PERFECT AND LOOKS GREAT.

JIM IS VERY RELIABLE. HE RETURNS CALLS PROMPTLY AND KEEPS YOU UP-TO-DATE ON WHAT HE IS DOING. HE IS VERY PLEASANT AND CHARGES MODERATE PRICES.

I HAD SOME SCHEDULING PROBLEMS WITH HIM AT FIRST - HE DIDN'T TAKE NOTES (OR LOST NOTES) DURING OUR FIRST CONVERSATION SO IT TOOK A WHILE TO GET THAT STRAIGHTENED OUT. ONCE HE REALIZED WHAT HAPPENED, THOUGH, HE WAS VERY APOLOGETIC & ACCOMMODATING. IT TOOK ABOUT 6 WEEKS FROM MY 1ST CALL 'TILL HE WAS ABLE TO DO THE WORK (OCT. 04) - WHICH IS A BIT LONG, BUT IT REALLY JUST MEANS HE DOES SUCH A GOOD JOB THAT HIS SERVICES ARE VERY MUCH IN DEMAND. ONCE HE CAME TO DO THE WORK, HE WAS VERY FRIENDLY, THOROUGH AND TRUSTWORTHY. HE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB AND FOUND SOME GOOD SOLUTIONS TO OUR PROBLEMS (EG:, HE INSTALLED WOODEN INSERTS ON STAIRWELL TO MAKE BABY GATES WORK WITH MOLDING, INSTALLED LARGE PINS IN CABINET THAT WAS BREAKING INSTEAD OF JUST GLUING IT - WHICH WAS HOW IT WAS MADE). HE ALSO GOT ALONG GREAT WITH OUR DOG! I WOULD DEFINITELY HIRE HIM AGAIN.

JIM IS VERY THOROUGH AND TAKES THE TIME TO EXPLAIN WHAT HE HAS DONE. HE IS VERY GOOD ABOUT ADVISING YOU ON LESS EXPENSIVE ALTERNATIVES. FOR EXAMPLE, OUR OLD LAUNDRY TUB HAS A CRACK AND I ASKED JIM TO INSTALL A NEW ONE. AFTER LOOKING AT THE OLD CEMENT TUB, HE TOLD ME HOW I COULD SEAL THE CRACK, KEEP THE OLD ANTIQUE DOUBLE TUB AND THUS SAVE QUITE A BIT OF MONEY! WE WILL CALL JIM AGAIN WHEN WE HAVE MORE PROJECTS TO GET DONE.

THIS FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH AN ANGIE'S LIST HANDYMAN WAS GREAT! RETURNED ORIGINAL MESSAGE QUICKLY. GAVE REASONABLE ESTIMATE IN TERMS OF COST($125 FOR REPAIRING WOODPECKER HOLE)AND TIMING (WITHIN 2 WEEKS, EVEN WITH THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY TIME). PUNCTUAL, VERY COURTEOUS AND FRIENDLY IN ALL PHONE CONVERSATIONS. ALTHOUGH NOT ABLE TO DO THE ORIGINAL JOB DUE TO WEATHER CONDITIONS AND EXTREME HEIGHT OF HOLE, WAS GLAD TO ADD ON A REPAIR TO OUR SMOKE DETECTOR. VERY PLEASED OVERALL.

JIM RETURNED MY INITIAL CALL PROMPTLY, PROVIDED A DATE WHEN HE COULD DO THE WORK, AND ARRIVED WHEN PROMISED. THE WORK WAS HIGH-QUALITY, AND HE WAS PROFESSIONAL AND DEPENDABLE. WILL DEFINITELY CALL HIM AGAIN FOR OTHER HANDYMAN SERVICES.

JIM IS VERY THOROUGH AND CHARGES REASONABLE RATES. HE WASN'T ABLE TO FIX ONE OF THE DOORS COMPLETELY, BUT IMPROVED IT AFTER TRYING THREE DIFFERENT TACTICS. OTHER WORK WAS VERY NICELY DONE.

JIM RESPONDED IN A TIMELY FASHION. HE DOES NOT SCREEN IN DECKS - ONLY DOES REPAIR WORK ON SCREEN DOORS, PAINTING, (NO BUILDING).

JIM IS FRIENDLY, SKILLED, KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EASY TO WORK WITH. HE IS REASONABLY PRICED AND PUNCTUAL.

I PHONED JIM'S SMALL STUFF FOR AN ESTIMATE. HE RETURNED MY CALL BUT I WAS NOT HOME. HE CALLED AGAIN AND LEFT A MESSAGE. HE SAID HE WAS SO BUSY THAT HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO HELP US AT THIS TIME. I WAS IMPRESSED WITH HIS PROMPT RETURN PHONE CALL AND HIS HONESTY. I WILL CALL HIM AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.

I WAS FRUSTRATED WITH THE FACT THAT HE DID NOT COME OUT FOR AN ESTIMATE, BUT ASKED ABOUT THE TASKS BEFORE HE CAME. WHEN HE GOT HERE, HE WASN'T INTERESTED IN REPLACING PORCH SCREENS OR BASEMENT CEILING TILES. I ONLY GOT 15% OF THE WORK DONE.

JIM WAS EXTREMELY THOROUGH AND DETAIL ORIENTED. HE GAVE ADVICE ON BETTER WAYS TO HANDLE CERTAIN REPAIRS. HE WAS PROMPT WITH RETURN PHONE CALLS AND ARRIVED ON TIME EACH DAY OF THE PROJECT. HE WAS A PLEASURE TO HAVE IN THE HOUSE AND I AM CONFIDENT THAT OUR REPAIRS WERE DONE AS IF HE WAS WORKING IN HIS OWN HOME. I WOULD AND HAVE RECOMMENDED JIM TO FRIENDS AND WOULD ABSOLUTELY CALL HIM AGAIN WHEN WE NEED ADDITIONAL HELP.

JIM IS GREAT. HE IS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND THE WORK HE PERFORMED WAS EXCELLENT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM.

COMPLETED ALL WORK AS SCHEDULED AND UNSUPERVISED. JIM IS REALLY A GREAT GUY, ALSO SUGGESTED SOME THINGS AND DID THEM. ALMOST HATE TO LET THE SECRET OUT THAT HE'S FABULOUS!

HE WAS HERE FOR 5 DAYS STRAIGHT! HE RETURNED MY INITIAL CALL WITHIN MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO DO MY WORK RIGHT AWAY, HE WAS THERE THE NEXT MORNING. HE WAS VERY WILLING TO ACCOMMODATE AND MADE IT ALL WORK. HE IS GREAT. HE REALLY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND. HE REALLY LOOKED FOR THINGS THAT NEEDED DONE AND HE DID IT ALL RIGHT.

HE WAS PLEASANT TO WORK WITH AND WE WILL DEFINITELY USE HIM FOR FUTURE PROJECTS.

I SPOKE TO JIM ON THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY AND THROUGH OUR CONVERSATION HE GAVE ME THE INFORMATION AND CONFIDENCE I NEEDED TO FINISH MY PROJECT MYSELF (CAULKING AROUND ALL THE WINDOWS ON THE OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE). WE ALSO DISCUSSED OTHER PROJECTS I NEED DONE INSIDE THE HOUSE AND JIM WAS VERY HONEST AND UP FRONT ABOUT WHAT HE WOULD AND WOULDN'T DO AND WHY. I WILL DEFINITELY HIRE JIM WHEN I GET READY TO DO SOME OF THESE OTHER PROJECTS.

HE'S BEEN WORKING WITH ME ALL SUMMER TO REPAIR AND REMODEL THIS PLACE. THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK IS EXCEPTIONAL AND EVERYTHING LOOKS BRAND NEW WHEN HE'S FINISHED. HE PAYS GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND QUALITY AND IT DEFINITELY SHOWS. HE'S A NICE GUY AND EASY TO GET ALONG WITH. HE IS VERY INFORMATIVE AND HAS LOTS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE TRADES. HE IS VERY PROMPT AND ALWAYS GETS BACK TO YOU ON THE PHONE. (COST LISTED IS HOURLY)

JIM IS PERSONABLE, HARD WORKING, HAS A CAN-DO ATTITUDE. DID EVERYTHING VERY WELL. I WILL DEFINITELY HIRE HIM AGAIN.

JIM DID A GREAT JOB ON THIS DIFFICULT PROJECT (MY OLD GARAGE IS NOT PLUMB, NOT FLUSH, ETC. ETC.) HE PAID ATTENTION TO DETAIL, DOING THINGS LIKE FINDING NEW TRIM MOLDING THAT MATCHED, BUILDING SHUTTERS FOR THE WINDOW, REPAIRING A BURNED AREA ON ONE WALL, ETC.

HE TOLD US HE WOULD DO IT IN THREE WEEKS. I FOLLOWED UP WITH HIM RIGHT BEFORE THE WORK WAS TO START, AND HE INFORMED ME HE WAS NOW TOO BUSY TO DO THE WORK

VERY EASY TO DEAL WITH. HE MAKES YOU FEEL AS IF YOU HAVE KNOW HIM ALL YOUR LIFE. VERY PLEASED WITH HIS WORK.

JIM WORKED FOR 9.5 HOURS ON THE SEALING, POWERWASHING, AND EDGING. HE WAS VERY HELPFUL ABOUT LOOKING FOR WAYS TO GET THE DRIVEWAY CLEAN (OAK LEAF STAINS) BEFORE HE SEALED IT.
