When we hired A+ services, it was for the third time. They had previously replaced a French door, and also, pressure washed the house. We were very pleased on all counts. This time, we had two windows we wanted installed to make a corner view. They cut the wallboard away and behind one, were all the electrical cords leading to the junction box. This was beyond their expertise and further consultation with electricians caused us to abandon that idea. A+'s Darrel Shroyer, supervised the setting of the new window and did a beautiful job. Then, he remudded, sanded and repainted the wall where a window could not be set. The entire corner looks beautiful. Further, he used a grout with silicone to repair the issues we were having with our tiles. His workmanship was excellent and he was always very down to earth about answering questions. We would most definitely recommend the services of this company.

Called on Friday, Aug.9th. Left phone number and message requesting an estimate on putting up bead-board, grout repair, and some refinishing. Did not receive a response. Called on Saturday AM and spoke with owner. Explained what we wanted done. He said he would see us on Monday around 5 PM, and that he would phone when he was on his way. He didn't phone, and he didn't come. It's now after 10:30 on Tuesday AM, and we still have not heard from him.

Response from A+ Home Improvements
Unfortunately, I did miss my original appointment time. However, I did call the next day to apologize and went by that afternoon (at the homeowner's convenience) and emailed an estimate for the work within a day or two. It is unfortunate when this happens; it's usually because I end up working late in an effort to complete jobs and ensure happiness of my customers. I value new customers as well and regret that this was a missed opportunity.

I purchased a Big Deal coupon from them. It went very well. I have used him before so I was able to get even better price on things, so he is always very good. I am very happy with him and I have recommended him to a couple of people. I didn’t pay more than the coupon price.
Description of Work: I used A+ Home Improvements to replace a couple of light fixtures. He put a couple of new shutters and repaired some screen and there were quite a few of those. He also did wood repair.

Darrell Shroyer, the owner of the company, was wonderful! He came to our house very quickly after we called him for a quote. He provided us with a quote within a couple of days. His quote was fair and we contracted with him to do the work. He had difficulties having his crew get started because of the rainy weather, but he texted me every morning to let me know if the guys would be coming out to work. As one of the workers said to me, "We will be here every day it doesn't rain until the work is done." And they were. The work done was excellent and the guys were very neat and polite. We could not be happier with this company. I have Darrell's cell number in my phone so I can call him for anything we need done!
Description of Work: Power washed, repaired and painted our wrap-around, two story deck with DeckOver, stained the underside of the deck, painted our split rail fence, a concrete wall, two car garage door and 2 back doors.

The provider was very responsive to setting a time and date for the Work. On the morning of, Rodney (the assigned worker) called in advance to let us know that he was on his way. Rodney arrived, surveyed the Work to be done and then went off to purchase the materials he would need. Upon his return he started the Work immediately and kept at it until it was finished. Removal of a "popcorn" ceiling is messy! I was pleased that Rodney used a drop cloth and did a reasonable clean up job when he was finished.
Description of Work: Installed drywall in my garage and removed "popcorn" material from a laundry room ceiling.

He returned our phone call promptly and came out to see the project. He gave us an estimate which we thought was great and scheduled the time. He even gave us a call and wanted to get it done sooner but we were not going to be home. So we stayed with the original date. He arrived right on time (called again beforehand) and got the job done in less than 30 minutes.
Description of Work: We had Darrell affix a screening material over the top of the pergola. He also replaced some of the beams that were splintering.

Darrell is amazing! He is skillful, knowledgeable about what he is doing, does things very quickly and efficiently besides being a nice person and reliable. I have dealt with many handymen over the years and he is number one on my list of those who combine all of those qualities. I will continue to employ him whenever I need help with my property.
Description of Work: I had several things that needed to be done including cleaning and covering a gutter with guards. caulking a greenhouse structure 2 stories tall, installing a ceiling fan and an outdoor floodlight. There were two visits, the last one yesterday. For both visits Darrell came and gave me an approximate estimate, he was on time for both the estimates and his scheduled work time and the prices were in line with the estimates.

Darrell and his employees are lifesavers. I had a list of repairs I needed completed in a finite period of time, and Darrell made "things" happen. His price was fair and his work was excellent. He and his employees (yes you Rodney) really went out of their way to do a good job. I would recommend them to anyone.

Overall, we were pleased with the quality of work but getting them to show up was a major undertaking. We originally called Darrell in mid October but he was on a job site without his notebook and promised to call us back the next day. He never did. This same pattern was repeated over and over for about a month. We had actually given up and were looking for another provider when he finally did call to arrange an appointment. He was surprised that we were a little concerned at this point -- we had a houseful of company coming for Thanksgiving -- but then did make an appointment, showed up on time and did the work well. Advise not utilizing this provider if in a hurry!

After finding Darrell on Angie's list in March, we contacted him by phone and set up a time to meet him . We were in the process of moving and had a short window open to get an estimate regarding several jobs we wanted done. Darrell showed up on time, and went through our home with us listening to what we wanted done and offering suggestions when asked. We received an estimate from Darrell within two days. The original start date for the projects was to be in June, but we had a chance to return earlier, and so we contacted Darrell and asked if it would be possible for him to begin one project in May. Darrell worked with us to make that happen. When we arrived at our house, we had a problem with our water, and even though we contacted him around 7:00 in the evening, and it had nothing to do with him in any way, who found a plumber to come help us out that night? Darrell did. Darrell and his crew arrived on time on the agreed upon date , and began working. They were courteous,considerate, experienced, and professional. They have a wonderful work ethic and completed the job on time. It looks beautiful , and we are looking forward to working with Darrell and his crew on our next project.

The men were punctual, polite and worked steadily . Deck furniture had to be moved from one side to another for them to get to the house and set up the ladders. The house looked clean as a whistle when they finished and I was pleased enough to have them estimate.a painting job for the future. I endorse them and hope to use the services again.

IT went great. He was very professional. He worked by the hour, but worked incredibly quickly and effectively. I wasn't sure he would be able to get to all of the tasks I had for him, but he managed his time well and worked much faster than I anticipated.
Description of Work: He installed some shelves I had bought from pottery barn, installed multiple light fixtures, installed bathroom hardware in a couple of bathrooms, helped move furniture and lay down a very large and heavy area rug...and similar small tasks that were needing to be done around the house.

Work was performed quickly and efficiently, I felt he was rushing and that the cleanup suffered as a result. I felt if I had him for 4 hours as I originally thought that some issue with replacing the ceiling tiles would have been addressed such as caulking and painting the small area of crown molding.
Description of Work: I had several small jobs including replacing some ceiling tiles, repair screens, setting up portable ac unit in basemen, fixing screen door in basement, and a few other misc jobs. I thought I had purchased 4 hrs of handyman service but when he arrived he said he was really busy so he brought along a worker and that I would have them both for 2 hrs.

they came on the day scheduled and went right to work. The repair job was excellent and I am happy with the results. He had given me two potential prices: one price was $700 if all of the siding on the two sections needed to be replaced and painted. The other price was $550 if the major job was not needed. He noted that the smaller job was all I needed. Also, because he offers a 10% senior discount, I paid him $500. As a side note, he came to the door and told me that our cat had gotten out of the house. Very nice!

Darrell came to my home and then submitted an estimate that I found very reasonable. He gave an estimated start date and then started on time. They moved my potted plants and deck furniture without damage to anything. The surrounding area was not damaged by spills and the surrounding plants protected. The work was completed with a great deal of attention to detail and in a timely manner. I sincerely appreciated working with a firm that is knowledgeable and so helpful. Due to the large size of the deck it took 3 1/2 days to complete the job and the estimate was the final cost. I am very pleased!
Description of Work: The deck was power washed, allowed to dry and then 2 Coates of stain applied. They moved my potted plants and deck furniture without damage to anything.

A roofer replaced torn shingles and decking, but refused to replace rotten wood underneath. Darrell was recommended to us by a competitor, so we knew we were ok with him, especially with his reviews on Angie's List. He showed up on time to do the estimate, gave the estimate on site, and we agreed on a day to do the work. The work was done (at half the estimate of Balkan Roofing) on time and quickly with a professional look. We could not be more pleased and look forward to having him do more work for us. We HIGHLY recommend him (and we don't recommend often)! We were especially pleased at his professionalism. He called us (twice) just to keep us informed.
