It all went really good and I got most of my list items done or at least the major ones. The only reason I gave them a B or 4 star rating is because there was no follow up on the bathroom estimate. No matter now. I've decided to put my house up for sale and so I'm not going to do as much remodeling as if I were going to live here myself. I'm going with the guys that did my hall bath. They did a great job and I know how it's going to turn out.
Description of Work: I had a to-do list of various small projects which included, tightening up loose electrical outlets, getting rid of a loose hot wire in the basement from an electrical outlet in the floor that was covered up with flooring but not taken out by the floor guys, installing a new doorbell and working on preparing a wall stripped of wall paper for painting. The workman actually stayed over to finish up preparing the wall, which I appreciated. He answered a question about my bath and took pictures to give me an estimate for a bathroom remodel.

The person arrived on time, listened to everything I needed to be done and was able to complete everything in 5 hours. I purchased 4 hours for $167 and paid an extra $86. ($50 for the extra hour and $36 for supplies/delivery). I thought the value was excellent considering I would not have been able to do all of that myself in that amount of time. Plus I couldn't have picked up the drywall myself. Will use again for future projects.
Description of Work: - Picked up drywall and caulk from hardware store - Replaced drywall in a section that had water damage (the old drywall was already removed and new insulation was in place) - Applied joint compound and tape, smoothed out surface - Caulked the length of an outer wall at the joint where the brick wall and vinyl siding addition met - Caulked around second floor window where water may have been coming in - Got up on the roof and checked for possible areas of leakage where around flashing (did not notice any issues)

It went fine. Cost more than the prepaid deal, but the work had to be performed and the cost of materials was part of that cost as well. The tile repair was ok, just not what I would have liked, since it didn't really match the tile that was in the shower. But it might have been difficult to find tile from30 years ago when the house was built. The outside window repair was fine. He had to take the window completely out and reinstall it. No further issues with that. Overall, a nice job.
Description of Work: Made some general repairs to our new home, mainly the front window had some issues that needed fixing, along with some other small repairs to the exterior. He also fixed some tile in one of the bathroom showers.

See above - he was just very slow and there were some things I had to show him how do? I expected a true Handy Man type person - but I did not feel he was qualified.
Description of Work: I had a list of Handyman items - hang valences and cornices, fix toilet balance, etc. and I don't actually think he was any more qualified than I am; he just had better tools and more time. Work was mediocre but he was very very slow -and since I had bought 4 hours of time, I ended up paying for an add'l 4 hours on top of that - and I didn't have that large a list.

Workers with Jon arrived a little before seven--they had said seven--and stayed until almost seven in the evening to complete the majority of construction and first coat of paint. They hardly stopped except for lunch and a few very short breaks. Jon came the second day and completed the project. the entire team was professional, competent and respectful of me and my house, very careful not to let the dog get onto the porch. they deserve all As and all the work they can handle.
Description of Work: water had gotten into behind the walls of my upstairs balcony, which were deteriorated, and was causing damage to the ceiling of my downstairs porch. Jon and his workers took the balcony apart, replaced the wood side walls, capped with a metal material, replaced two pieces of 85-year-old tongue and groove and used three different stains to come up with a perfect match for the downstairs porch ceiling, matched color and repainted the new wood on the balcony. When he and his workers were finished they cleaned up completely and left me with a beautiful new balcony. I am thrilled.

I bought one of the special deals from Angie's list from this company. The owner called me to set the appointment. The gentleman (contractor) showed up as scheduled and on-time; he was professional, and he kept me informed throughout the entire project. He was detailed-oriented and did a great job with my projects. I plan on using this company again to do some more work around my house. My house is 50 years old so there were some unexpected items that came up as the contractor did the work, but he kept his professionalism and figured out the best solution.
Description of Work: I had a number of projects done in the time the contractor was here that included repairing front porch columns that had rotted wood, installation of a bathroom light, and replacement of a bathroom vanity/minor plumbing, a kitchen cabinet door leveled, and a garage door lock installed.
Very well. they were puncutual, polite, professional, helpful and conscientious.
Description of Work: Several miscellansous jobs around house - including patching ceiling and painting, installation of faucet in bathroom sink, lot of odds and end type jobs.

Description of Work: Rewired my basement and garage in our house we just purchased.. Also did several other projects around the house. Also work was done at the house we live in now. They did a great job and I plan on using them again in the near future.

Wonderful! I picked out a wicked ceiling fan for my son but the I installation instructions were lacking. It took him two hours, he was very professional and now my son has an cool ceiling fan in his room, by the way my husband would have so gave up on this fan about a half-hour into it.

Couldn't have been better. Patrick was on time, only took a few minutes to review the various jobs I needed to be done, then got right to work. He scraped and painted a 2nd story window frame (outside), put in a support post to a fence that was leaning (even matched the carving at the top of the post!), tacked baseboard, repaired some flashing around the stack on the roof, installed a door sweep, and fixed several boards on the fence that had come loose. I had purchased a coupon for 4 hours of work - he was able to get all this done with only one extra hour - and my house looks great!
Description of Work: I have a house that was rented for two years which is now going on the market to be sold. Had quite a laundry list of items to be fixed.

They were okay. They came and did finish the job. They asked for some more time and finally came and finished the job and sent an invoice for me in the mail and I sent a check. They showed up on time even though the appointments were stretchy but they always called. They did everything. He worked at night. After their four hours were finished it was $50 for every hour so I told him to stop because I was not going to pay any more money. The quality of the work was okay.

The owner came out and gave me a time estimate for the job and scheduled someone to complete the work. The worker showed up right on time that morning and quickly got to work making sure he had all the correct materials. The work was done professionally with him checking in at certain points to make sure where I wanted things placed. The fan works great and the install is very neat; with not a lot of patching needed after. After the work was complete he cleaned up all work areas and took all materials that needed disposal.
Description of Work: I bought the Angie's List deal for handyman services to have a bathroom fan installed. I realize this is more than normal handyman work; but its something we intended to do and over the past year haven't gotten to.

It was an Angie's list Big Deal that I purchased. It was kinda surprising. He didn't want to do what I wanted him to do. I bought the deal for a painting job in my kitchen and he said he wasn't a good enough painter. I ended up just trying to find something for him to do. I was happy with the service, it's not bad but I guess I should have looked for a painter instead of a general contractor. But actually, he recommended someone to me and I used that person and it was fine. The painting was not a difficult job so I'm not sure why he didn't want to do it. It worked out all right.
Description of Work: I used J P Frisch Construction Services to fix an outside pond because it had a leak. He fixed the light switch for us.

Everything went fine with J P Frisch Construction Services, Inc. About a month and a half after the service the door started sticking and I called the owner and he said he's real busy and it'd be a couple of weeks up to a month before he could work on it. I was having problems with the door so I said, "I'd really appreciate if you could get it fixed." I know I waited at least a couple of weeks and maybe up to a month but he sent somebody out and they corrected it. I was dissatisfied on the follow-up after I had problems with the door. The work was very good. I was satisdied with all the work that they did. The only problem I had was with the follow-up when I had a problem with the door later on and he couldn't get to it for a while. Responsiveness wasn't that good afterwards. But for the main stuff and what I originally worked, everything was fine. All the other works' been fine, too. It was very good quality work.
Description of Work: J P Frisch Construction Services, Inc., came out and did some work. I had a door and they put in the threshold, got the door to lock and close and everything. They finished a bathroom, do some odds and ends, put a vanity in, hang a mirror, put some fixtures in, do some painting, just kind of odds and ends and that all went find. Everything worked fine until they left; the door had problems later on.

Paid for two blocks of time for construction ... needed a safe entryway for wheelchair patient. Contractor said he could not do that work.. I understood his inability to do so, but felt he should have refunded my money paid for a job he could not perform. Since it was going to cost me 300 dollars whether he did anything or not, I chose to have a few minor repairs performed. I feel like I could have had those jobs done for a lot less than 300 dollars. Overall, very unsatisfied with this encounter.. ***not sure of date of service
Description of Work: several small repairs.. installed grab bars, installed stair rail.
Jim filled holes left from tract lighting. He then spread plastic all over living room to paint ceiling. He did a great job of painting the ceiling being very careful not to splatter paint on anything. He measured door entry and bought wood to make door. He painted the door white and installed it. I am very happy with the job that he did. I will definitely use J P Frisch Construction Services again.

showed up on time for appointment, repaired few small problems around house, would consider using again.
Description of Work: fixed a couple of doors so they close properly, fixed baseboard in hallway (renailed), evaluated a couple of additional doors and a toilet but didn't repair any of these due to time and material constraints.
I hired this provider via an Angie's List Big Deal, after reading many positive reviews. JP Frisch offered a big deal - a full day of handyman services for $395. I knew I wanted a lot of work done, and was unsure whether JP Frisch could complete the tasks I wanted done in one day. So I emailed JP before buying the big deal and described the work I needed done. I asked if this work could be done in one day. JP was very responsive; he quickly responded and explained that based on the work required he might exceed the full days time (and the approx. $395 price), but that he would bill me at a lower hourly rate for the time required to complete the work not done per the "big deal". I thought that was fair. I bought the big deal and scheduled the work. Later, JP's handyman arrived. He was one time and professional. I was a little concerned that it seemed to take him awhile to do the work I requested. My husband and I were in and out during the course of the day, and he really seemed to take a long time installing the fans and lights. We chalked that up to the fact that the fans seemed a little complicated and do not hold that against the provider. The only snag we experienced happened when he installed the faucet in the bathroom. The handyman cracked the vanity top while he was removing the old faucet. Apparently the old faucet was on fairly tight - I think it was an honest mistake. Anyway, the handyman and JP spent time determining what to do about the crack.This took awhile and a portion of the day I paid for was spent trying to resolve this issue. JP did well resolving the situation. He offered to repair or replace the cracked vanity top at no cost to us. If we chose to replace the cracked top, we would have to buy the new one, but they would replace it at no cost. If we chose to repair it, JP committed to make the crack disappear using a guy who specializes in these sorts of repairs. We went with the second option and his guy did, in fact, make the crack disappear - it looks like it never happened. All and all, I was pleased with this work. Of course, I did not like that the vanity was cracked, nor did I like the fact that they seemed to spend time during the day I bought debating how to fix it. But I do really like the way they handled the situation and I loved the professionalism of both the guy he sent out (also named Jon) and JP himself. They're probably the classiest handymen I've had the pleasure of working with. JP did great in resolving the issue without a lot of drama.
Description of Work: This provider - (1) installed 4 ceiling fans (2) installed light kits on the 4 ceiling fans (3) installed a light fixture in a bathroom and (4) installed a bathroom faucet. I bought a big deal - approx. $395 for one day's work; the amount of work required exceeded one day's work, so they charged me $50/hour for work in excess of 1 day's time.

These guys, Jon & Mike, were great. They arrived a few minutes early (great!) and got right to work after I showed them what I wanted done. Both were very personable and I felt very comfortable leaving them in my house while I went to hardware store to get some of the supplies they needed. I'd purchased an Angie's List Big Deal: $149 for Half Day of Contractor Services (50% off). ($149 for the coupon/half day's work, then another $300 for the additional 3 hours x 2 men. I think I'm figuring that right. Including the coupon $149, I paid a total of $449, give or take a few dollars. I don't have the invoice with me. As I said, the workers were very nice, very personable, and I'm guilty of talking to them a lot. I think I got charged for some (?) of that talk time. And one of the men spent a lot of time on his cell phone--on several different calls, so I think I got charged for those calls/time, too. Not sure that's fair. But I DID like the work they did. And I do have some more projects on my Honey Do list. Just have to save my pennies to get them done!
Description of Work: I had several "honey-do's" on my list. 1: repair part of a ceiling where the drywall had been water-damaged. They patched, taped and "mudded" the repaired area. 2. Paint step/small deck outside dining room door to patio. Power washed and then painted it. 3. Regrouted the area where walls meet tile floor in the master shower.

The young man, John, arrived right on time. He was friendly, professional and cleaned up after himself. We primarily wanted him to fix the wall but the owner suggested we find some other jobs for him to do while waiting for the drywall patch to dry.
Description of Work: We'd had termites in a wall. The provider patched the drywall, sanded it and painted it. He also hung some shelves and replaced two doorknobs.
