Perfect!!

TIM RECOMMENDED A PRACTICAL, LOW-COST SOLUTION TO THE DAMAGED DOOR FRAME. TWO TRIPS WERE REQUIRED TO FINISH THE WORK. HE COMPLETED THE JOB BEFORE THE DATE HE PROMISED, TO HAVE IT COMPLETED BY THE DATE I DESIRED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'VE USED TIM. HE'S HONEST, PRACTICAL, PROFESSIONAL AND TRUSTWORTHY.

HE'S REAL PATIENT ABOUT EXPLAINING WHAT HE'S DOING AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO LEARN.

TIM WAS ON TIME, VERY PROFESSIONAL, POLITE, CLEANED UP WELL AFTER WORK AND WAS REASONABLY PRICED. HE ANSWERED MY QUESTIONS AND HAD GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

ACCOMMODATING, ON TIME TO ESTIMATE, CLEANED UP WELL, AND WERE CORDIAL. HE HAS DONE WORK FOR ME BEFORE WITH SIMILAR EFFECT. QUALITY WORK.

NICE GUY, VERY REASONABLY PRICED, HAD TO COME BACK TO FINISH WORK, BUT DID NOT INCREASE PRICE. I AM VERY SATISFIED AND ALSO PLANNING MORE WORK WITH TIM.

TIM WAS GREAT. ARRIVED WHEN PROMISED, GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE, AND I HAD THE OPTION TO HAVE HIM DO THE WORK RIGHT ON THE SPOT. THOSE CABINETS WERE APPARENTLY BUILT TO SURVIVE A BOMB BLAST, BUT HE WAS ABLE TO REMOVE JUST THE PORTION I WANTED WITH ALMOST NO DETECTABLE EFFECTS ON THE ADJACENT CABINETS. EXCELLENT WORK, WILL DEFINITELY CALL HIM AGAIN WHEN I NEED HELP.

TIM WAS VERY REPONSIVE & WORKED TO ACCOMMODATE OUR SCHEDULE TO ESTIMATE WORK. WROTE AN ESTIMATE, WHICH WAS INITIALLY FIXED AMOUNT EVEN THOUGH HE DIDN'T WANT TO BE HELD TO AMOUNT - WE HAD AGREED ON HOURLY - HE REWROTE IT AT MY INSISTENCE. FOUND HIS DAY JOB IS HEATING & AIR COND - SO ASKED HIM TO TUNE FURNACE AS FIRST JOB. HE CHARGES HIGHER RATES THAN HIS USUAL $40/HR FOR THIS - DIDN'T TELL US UNTIL HE SHOWED UP. COMPLETED WORK - THE NEXT DAY WAS AN UNUSUALLY WARM FALL DAY SO WE TURNED ON THE AIR. IT DIDN'T WORK AT ALL - HAD WORKED PERFECTLY THE PREVIOUS WEEK AND FOR THE PREVIOUS 11 YEARS. TOLD HIM TO RETURN & CHECK IT - FIGURING IF HE CHARGES LIKE A HVAC BUSINESS HE SHOULD SERVICE LIKE ONE. HE CHECKED IT - REPORTED LOW ON FREON - OFFERED TO FILL AT NORMAL HOURLY RATES. MUTUALLY DECIDED TO SEVERE RELATIONSHIP. BOTTOM LINE: MY AGGRAVATION LEVEL INCREASED, WALLET IS LIGHTER, AND NUMBER OF BROKEN THINGS WENT UP NOT DOWN.

MARKHAM MAINTENANCE WAS ONE OF THE FEW COMPANIES I CONTACTED WILLING TO LOOK AT BOTH SITUATIONS. THE TECHNICIAN WAS BOTH KNOWLEDGEABLE AND FRIENDLY. HE RECOMMENDED 2 FIXES ON THE FURNACE,A PILOT IGNITION SWITCH AND A NEW CIRCUIT BOARD, SINCE BOTH WERE OEM AND GETTING OLD. IN ADDITION, HE DID A COMPLETE REBUILD ON MY GAS LOG FIREPLACE, EVEN BRINGING ME A NEW GRATE WHICH WORKED BETTER! HE ADDED AN EMERGENCY SHUTOFF VALVE AND REBUILT THE CONTROLS TO MAKE THEM SAFER AND MORE ACCESSIBLE. IN SHORT, HE DID GREAT WORK AT VERY REASONABLE PRICES AND WAS PROMPT AND CLEAN. I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER SOLUTION. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MARKHAM MAINTENANCE. HE SAVED ME MANY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ALONE ON THE GAS LOG FIREPLACE. HE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HAS SOME GREAT MONEY-SAVING IDEAS. JUST ENGAGE HIM IN SOME CONVERSATION ABOUT YOUR SITUATION AND HE WILL NO DOUBT HAVE SOME GREAT RECOMMENDATIONS.

ASK FOR DETAILS ABOUT ANY ESTIMATE... HOW MUCH FOR THE PARTS AND HOW MUCH FOR THE LABOR BEFORE THE WORK AND IF THE WORK IS GUARANTEED.

GAVE ME SEVERAL OPTIONS, ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS AND THEN COMPLETED JOB. VERY PROFESSIONAL. CALLED TO CONFIRM APPOINTMENT. ON THE DAY OF THE SERVICE, HE CALLED TO SAY HE WAS RUNNING LATE, ARRIVED AT AGREED TIME.

BIG KUDOS TO MARKHAM MAINTENANCE!!! HE DID A FANTASTIC JOB, GAVE US VALUABLE ADVICE ON PURCHASING MACHINE, AND ALTHOUGH TIME REQUIRED FOR JOB WENT OVER, WE WERE CHARGED ONLY WHAT HE HAD ESTIMATED, WHICH WAS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN WHAT WE HAD ANTICIPATED. WE NOW HAVE HIM DO MAINTENANCE ON HEATER. PREVIOUS SERVICE TOOK ABOUT 20 MINS.; HE TOOK 2 HOURS, COMPLETELY DISMANTLED, CLEANED AND REASSEMBLED UNIT, AT SAME COST.

THE WORK WAS ONLY DONE ON WEEKENDS, WHICH WE KNEW AHEAD OF TIME.SKIPPED TWO WEEKENDS SO WORK TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED.

I HAD TO WAIT THREE WEEKS TO GET THE FAN INSTALLED AND IT TOOK HIM TWO EVENINGS TO COMPLETE THE JOB. HE WAS NOT GOOD ABOUT RETURNING CALLS AS PROMISED, BUT HE DID DO A GOOD JOB OVERALL.

HE WAS A NICE GUY, BUT WE FOUND OUT AFTER WE HIRED HIM HE ONLY WORKED ON WEEKENDS. HE ALSO HURT HIS BACK AND DID NOT COME ONE TIME. SEVERAL DAYS HE SHOWED UP AT LEAST TWO HOURS AFTER WE EXPECTED HIM. WE FINALLY HAD HIM QUIT THE JOB IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. HE SEEMED ANXIOUS TO GO ON TO OTHER PROJECTS. ONE TIME HE SAID HE COULDN'T WORK BECAUSE HE HAD TO GO DO ESTIMATES. THE WORK HE DID WAS FINE, AND AGAIN HE SEEMED LIKE A NICE PERSON.

HE IS A REAL PRO-HE GAVE MY HOUSE A LITTLE TLC AS IF IT WAS HIS OWN!!

THE OWNER SAID HE WOULD SEND SOMEONE OUT FOR AN ESTIMATE. SOMEONE CAME OUT AND GAVE ESTIMATE, CHARGED $15. I HIRED THEM AND HE TOOK MY PAINT TO HAVE IT RE-MIXED BECAUSE IT WAS AN OIL-BASED PAINT. HE NEVER SHOWED WHEN HE WAS SUPPOSED TO DO THE WORK AND NEVER CALLED. I CALLED THE OWNER TO LET HIM KNOW AND THEN HE CALLED ME BACK AND SAID HE WOULD TRY TO CONTACT THE GUY WHO DIDNT SHOW. THE OWNER CALLED THE NEXT DAY AND SAID HE WAS UNABLE TO REACH HIM. THIS IS WHEN THE OWNER TOLD ME THAT HE IS FARMING A LOT OF NEW WORK OUT TO OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE HE IS TAKING ON MORE WORK THAN HE CAN HANDLE. HE ALSO STATED THAT HE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PERSON NOT SHOWING UP. HE ALSO SAID IT WAS UNFAIR FOR ME TO REPORT THIS TO ANGIES LIST. THIS WAS A VERY UNPROFESSIONAL WAY OF DOING BUSINESS. THIS HAS ALSO PUT ME IN A TIME CRUNCH WITH THE WEATHER. OWNER SAID HE WOULD GIVE ME MY $15 FOR THE ESTIMATE BACK AND GIVE ME BACK MY PAINT.

I'VE EMPLOYED QUITE A FEW HANDYMEN OVER THE YEARS, AND HE IS BETTER THAN THE EARLIER BEST (WHO WAS VERY GOOD BUT LEARNING) BY SOME DISTANCE. HE CLAIMS TO SPECIALIZE IN HEATING/AC, PLUMBING, ELECTRICAL, AND CARPENTRY; AND I BELIEVE HIM: I WOULD EMPLOY HIM FOR ANYTHING, ON THE BASIS OF THE WORK HE DID FOR ME, BECAUSE HE REALLY KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. I WILL BE USING HIM AGAIN, IN FACT, AND SOON, AND IT IS A PLEASURE TO BE WRITING ABOUT HIM.

GOT A CALL ON A SNOWY OCTOBER SUNDAY MORNING THAT THE HEAT AT MY DUPLEX WAS NOT WORKING. STARTED MAKING CALLS OFF ANGIE'S LIST FOR WEEKEND/EMERGENCY SERVICE. LEFT A MESSAGE WITH MARKHAM'S MAINTENANCE AND IMMEDIATELY GOT A CALL BACK FROM THEM. HE WAS OUT WITHIN 2 HOURS AND HAD IT FIXED FOR LESS MUCH LESS THAN THE OTHER COMPANY I TALKED TO. HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND ACCOMMODATING. HE ALSO CLEANED THE FLAME SENSOR ON THE BOILER AT NO CHARGE. WILL DEFINITELY CALL HIM AGAIN.

NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE BUT FOUND EVERYTHING HE NEEDED IN HIS TRUCK. I THOUGHT HE WAS RESOURCEFUL AND WELL PREPARED FOR ANY JOB.

THIS IS A GOOD COMPANY FOR SMALL PROJECTS WITHOUT STRICT TIME LINES. THEY HAD A PROBLEM STICKING TO THE TIME FRAMES GIVEN. A LITTLE LAXED ON THE ESTIMATES, WHICH NEEDED MORE WORK THAN ORIGINALLY PLANNED. OVERALL, I WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN FOR SMALL PROJECTS WITHOUT TIGHT SCHEDULES.

HOUSE IS SAFER NOW AND FREE OF LEAKING GAS FROM VALVE. GREAT JOB!

EXCELLENT COMMUNICATOR AND GREAT WORKER
