Description of Work: Needed some emergency privacy fence repair. Paul came out right away and quoted fairly. He did subcontract the work out,. The guys did a great job, but the cleanup was not the best (they swept up all the sawdust and put it in the recycling bin, which I found and had to deal with later

Description of Work: I called Paul regarding some handyman work I needed (plumbing, sump pump, electrical, etc.). Paul was unable to comply with our schedule because of other work; he referred me to Eric's Handyman, which was not only professional of him but a good turn for me, because Eric was very good over the course of several small jobs.

Awful
Description of Work: Needed a badly leaking tub fixture replaced, they were not licensed to go beyond standard replacement and they made the problem worse by breaking off the fixture and turning the leak from cold water to hot. We had to shut off the water every time we finished using water until I could get an actual plumber to come fix the problem

It didn't
Description of Work: I had an appointment with Paul the Friday before the Memorial Day weekend in the 10:00 - 10:30 timeframe. The appointment was for him to give me an estimate on the work I wanted done in my place. Paul didn't show up, didn't call to cancel or reschedule, nor did he return my two telephone messages I left for him on his phone. ( I took the day off work to be there when he came for rhe appointment.) A cancellation phone call at the very least would have been appreciated. Or better yet, he shouldn't have agreed to come out in the first place. My 1st exxperience with Angie's List........ very disappointing

Paul is reliable when fulfilling commitments - he always showed up on time, despite the rains that slowed down the job. The staining of the deck was very carefully done with excellent results. I would highly recommend Paul for any construction services.

I had a leak in my roof which came through in my home. I called Paul who said he would be over. Paul did stop by and said he could do the job. I asked him if he could come within the next week as the weather was going to be cold and raining. He said he could. He called later that evening to say he could stop by the next day. I told him that would be great and that I would leave extra shingles out for him. I called him at noon that day and asked if had been out there. He said no but that he would be there sometime in the afternoon. I asked him to call me when he had finished and let me know what he did. I never heard back from him.
Description of Work: No work was performed. Paul failed to show up to do the work.

Paul was prompt and professional. He was courteous from the moment we met him to the day he finished the job. He never intruded on our personal space while he was working on the house. The work that was done was done with meticulous care to detail and with the desire to please us. We will definitely hire him again and again.
Description of Work: Paul and his partner scraped off old paint, removed shutters, removed old gutters, painted the main house, trim, facia, and doors (garage and front).

They did a fabulous job! Paul and his crew were very prompt, professional and considerate. The new rooms are absolutely beautiful, and I love the hall closet. They had great ideas and suggestions for how we could use the space and accomplish our objectives for the area - far better than any of the other contractors we talked to. Not only that, Paul was willing to reuse the old hall closet door and a few other of the original items that were salvageable, which made the finished product blend with the rest of our older home. It also saved us money and reduced the amount that we sent to the landfill.
Description of Work: We hired Paul for a bedroom remodeling job to split a large bedroom into two kids' rooms and ended up having him help with a number of other jobs, too. They framed and drywalled to build a new wall to convert one large room into two smaller rooms; tore out hall closet and rebuilt; installed new door, lights, and vents; removed popcorn ceiling and installed knock-down ceiling; painted walls, ceilings, doors and woodwork; planed interior doors; fixed noisy stairs.

Many services provided by one company, made it easy for me. I kept adding to a "to do" list and Paul was able to do it. The quality of service is excellent and I will hire Paul again when I have more projects!
Description of Work: Many services! Pressure washed and painted deck, laid sod, pressure washed outside of house. Did touch up painting throughout the house, fixed the outer door in front. Finished laying a carpet that had not been completed by other company. Paul also helped me with a few "little projects".

We called Paul and he came the same day to give an estimate. It seemed really reasonable so we had him come do the first part of the work the next day. We decided to go forward with the second part and he was able to come out within a couple of days. He and his people were there on time, did exactly what they promised, cleaned up the job and charged what they estimated, I will definitely use them again.

I called Paul on Monday morning. Since he was in the area, he was able to come to our house later in the morning to look at the project and give me an estimate. Our basement had been wet numerous times, leaving the carpeting wet and stinky and the wood paneling ruined as well. We wanted the job done as soon as possible, and Paul was able to come the next morning. He arrived when he said he would and finished the job quickly, and charged what he said he would, which I thought was very fair given the nastiness of the job. Paul also caulked up a leaky window which was the source of some of the water in our basement. Paul was friendly, professional, worked quickly and left the basement neat. I would not hesitate to hire him again.
Description of Work: Removed wet, moldy carpet, carpet pad, and paneling from our basement and disposed of it.

They did an amazing job. They built my closet the same day I called them and they did a great job. They also offered a great alternative idea for the location of the closet and they were right, it was absolutely the right decision. They installed a new bathroom counter in my master bath that looks amazing. The fascia that was replaced gives my house a brand new look. They clean up well after themselves and are very prompt at arriving according to schedule.
Description of Work: Paul Hanson replaced all the rotting fascia on my house, built a permanent closet in a bedroom, and removed an old bathroom countertop and replaced it with a new one.

Paul was/is extremely responsive. He gave us very competitive quotes for all the projects, and provided references, which we called. The references all checked out as being very satisfied. We have nothing but great things to say about Paul. He is extremely conscientious, especially with regard to the quality of his work...he has higher standards than we do. Additionally, he is extremely reliable - he was completely thorough as well as timely. We will definitely use him again as we have no end to projects in and out of the house. I'm hesitant to advertise how good he is, and then have to compete with other Angie's List members for his time, but he's a good man and deserves the kudos.
Description of Work: We had so many projects that needed doing, and frankly speaking, I don't have the time (or the skill set) to do everything well. Here's what he's done so far: Insert drainage channel in our pool deck// Repair 2 sides to our pool house - replace the wood, replace the door// Remove balcony and repair the siding on the back our our house// Remove old chain-link fence and demolish 45 sq ft of concrete// Repair the deck and railings// Stain entire deck, gazebo and pool house

I would definitely use them again. The project was great. We ordered all the products we wanted. When they were in, they went and picked them up ie. tub, toilet, tile. I loved getting the bid on his labor only. Then we could choose to spend whatever we wanted on the items.
Description of Work: He tore out a shower install and replaced with slate. Added glass shower door. Put in new sink and fixtures. Gutted main bathroom. Installed tile on floors and walls. Gave suggestions on tile design and how to lay. Grouted everything. Removed claw foot tub and installed bubble massage tub. Put in new vanity, medicine cabinet/mirror, and toilet. Replaced toilet in second bath. Tore out drop tile ceilings in half of the basement, washroom, and bedroom in basement. Put in ceilings with canned lighting. Replaced kitchen sink and fixtures. Replaced washroom sink and fixtures. All walls and ceiling worked on were taped, muddied, and paint ready. Replaced both door locks on exterior porch doors and replaced mailbox.

Quality of work was very good and price was good. Paul was willing to let me do work in between their work to defer costs. Very punctual and always came to jobsite when he said he would. Worked aggressively to complete job on schedule. Provided ideas to enhance job and was open to us doing some things ourselves. Was open to nightly check-ins via phone to go over next day?s work in order to make sure we had necessary supplies.
