It went great. Any time there was a question Darrell was very informative and flexible. He and is crew were very polite and mindful of being in your home. They cleaned up at the end of every day very well and kept the mess to a minimum. They hauled off a the old materials and we're very accommodating and answered any questions I had along the way. The only hesitation I had from the beginning was that he didn't provide a very detailed quote but once I began working with him I realized how honest and good he was. He does not up charge for materials. In fact, I once went to lowes with him and just paid straight up for materials. Any time he purchased material he provided receipts. I was extremely happy with the final result and the process it took to get there. I will for sure hire Darrell and his crew again.

Darrell was excellent to work with in so many ways. He was always on time and communicated effectively. His price was very fair and far less than other contractors. He and his crew cleaned up everyday and did a number of extras or little things which were unexpected but very much appreciated. His crew worked very well with each other and with Darrell and the finished product showed. We were very pleased with his services and would highly recommend him. We are planning on another project in the future and will likely hire him again.

The job went very well. When trying to schedule, they were very accommodating when I had to reschedule of weather and illness. On the day of the job, two men came and arrived a bit early. They were both very courteous and professional. I had a list of tasks, and they went it over it with me when they arrived, and again when they finished. We discussed some ways of fixing other things and they recommended solutions that were easy and inexpensive. I appreciated that they seemed to be interested in solving the problem rather than just doing what I thought needed to be done. I will definitely hire them to do additional work.

Contractor showed on time (2 men), got to work after a quick run-through of the tasks, and did everything very efficiently. Contractor walked the finished job with me to confirm all was done. Quality of the work was excellent.

Helped determine the size and height (I am short) of pegboard to hold tools. Helped get the car into the garage at the right distance (8" clearance = arrgh!). Re-used shelving we took down, and got the materials we didn't have. Just the best handyman service I've had in a long time. Will definitely call on him when it's time to replace my deck.

Darryl and his employee did an amazing job at all the things we had him fix. The railing design seamlessly matched our porch which we had designed and built ourselves. They were extremely efficient, punctual, and very reasonably priced. I will use Darryl again and recommend him to anyone needing any kind of handy work.

I asked Darrell to design and construct a railing along a railroad-tie stairs. I asked that the new railing have the appearance of some existing railing. Darrell gave me a very competitive quote with a general description of the work to be performed. He and another fellow came out to do the installation. We discussed the project for about 15 minutes and they went to buy materials. The work was completed in about 7 hours. The result actually exceeded my expectations. The railing matches the existing railing and the work is rock-solid. I was very impressed with the result. I would use Darrell again in the future, without question.

Darrell Shroyer was professional in every aspect of the job. He was on time for the estimate, provided a quick written estimate and completed the work as scheduled. The work was done on the property of my 91 year old uncle. I was not present for the work, so Mr. Shroyer could have easily have taken advantage of the situation. Instead, he not only did an exceptional job on the siding, but installed a portion of metal roofing on a shed and cleaned the chimney on my uncle's house without charging extra. I find his work ethic and willingness to help others in need without expectations of extra compensation exemplary. I offered to pay him extra for the work not listed on the contract, but he refused and said he was just glad to help. I would definitely recommend A+ Home Improvement and Darrell Shroyer. He exemplifies the the integrity, qualities and standards everyone looks for when hiring to have projects done.

This crew was the best we've had! They were non-stop hard workers. My house was getting green mildew from all the summer rain and every bit was washed off along with all the corners and eaves, spider webs and everything else that has taken residence here over the summer months. The decks and gutters were also cleaned and we are extremely satisfied with the results. Our house is white and now it shines.

This was a rather large job. The crew reliably showed up on schedule every day until the job was finished. 2-3 people were assigned to the project each day. We were well informed if they weren't going to work because of weather. They removed and replaced exterior doors and trim, installed new lock sets and repaired rotten door trim. Once complete, they pressure washed the home exterior, caulked, and painted siding and trim on 3 stories. I know the job was difficult because of the property's steepness, however the employees did not once complain. The entire crew was very courteous and considerate of others. All equipment and ladders were moved out of the way at the close of work each day as to minimize their intrusion, which was much appreciated and a nice touch. Drop cloths protected all surfaces and we had no issues with paint splashes or drips. Excellent attention to detail - the team worked hard to make sure that we, the customers, were happy with their work. They asked questions for anything they were not sure about, rather than just doing their own thing, which was quite refreshing. The team's responsiveness to suggestions was outstanding. On several occasions, they made recommendations concerning painting to which we agreed. Their suggestions were great and the finished job turned out looking very complete and professional. We would recommend the A+ team without hesitation and plan to contact them again soon for some more work.

Mr. Shroyer of A+ Home Improvements promptly came to our home after our call to view the job and provide an estimate. Work was started and completed on the assigned day. The deck was very well done, the work professional in every way. Mr. Shroyer and crew used good lumber and screws (instead of nails) for a SOLID and good looking finished product. Special requests were accommodated without a hitch and the construction site was thoroughly cleaned. We are very pleased with the work of A+ Home Improvements, will call them first for any further needs and highly recommend them to others.

Darrel was terrific, very nice, did a great job rescreening, checked one of the toilets and made a small adjustment, saving me from having to change out the inside of tank, not necessary. Came a second time about my dryer vent possible clogging, checked that out, didn't find any problem and didn't charge me. Would definitely hire him and will again.

Very good experience from start to finish. He came out not long after I called to inspect the problem with the wall and then called me with his proposal of what he would do and his estimate of $525. He started work around 8or 8:30 Friday morning, 8/16. He did the job all by himself and was finished by about 1:30 that same day. I was very satisfied with his work and with the price. As promised in advance, his charge was $525. He was very courteous and professional and easy to work with.
Description of Work: A-+ owner, Darrell Shroyer made improvements to a damaged crawl space wall beneath my home that a mother fox had broken through and burrowed under to raise a litter of cubs beneath my kitchen. He covered up a hole in the wall, built a new crawl space door, covered the entire wall with wire mesh and then stuccoed over it. He also dug a trench beneath the wall and filled it with concrete to discourage fox from trying to burrow beneath it next year.

We had multiple small jobs that varied in complexity. We found A-1 on Angie's List and called Darrell for estimates on our multiple projects. He explained how each job would be executed during his visit and emailed the quote within 48 hours. Darrell arrived as scheduled with his helper (Rodney). They worked with a level of precision and speed that can only be accomplished by highly experienced craftsmen. With the table saw set up in the driveway, Darrell took exact measurements and made precision cuts. Every installation was level and fit perfectly. He was personable, professional and flexible (willing to do a few projects not on the original list). His pricing was less than we expected to pay and he exceeded our expectations in every way.
