He did more than I could even of asked him to do. I even gave him an extra $1,000 on top of what he charged. All of his work is amazing. He is honest and happy all the time. I wish we had more people like him in our area.

Richard was very pleasant, courteous, professional and knowledgable. He showed up on time every day and was very meticulous about the detail of his work, while doing his best to cause a minimal disturbance to the household. He cleaned up everyday and gave me routine progress reports and happily answered my questions and offered advice. On top of all of this his price was very competetive and unlike most contractors he provided an accurate estimate within a few days time! This experience is the very reason my family joined Angie's List! We researched about five different companies/people about the work based on reviews and ended up with fantastic work done at a very good price! I highly recommend Richard and Handyman Unlimited!
Description of Work: Remodeled a bathroom including replaing a toilet, vanity, mirrors, wall cabinet, ceramic tile floors, lights, vents, radiator housing, drywall, painting, trimwork, some plumbing and added an outlet.

This company has worked for us a total of 3 times. The 1st time, I found the company on Angie's List and had them construct a handicap ramp for my husband who had just had a serious accident. I specified that I wanted the ramp to be removable after my husband;s recovery. Because I needed the ramp quickly, they gave this job top priority and got it done right away. Richard did a marvelous job and came back 9 months later to take it down when we needed him to. Next I asked for an estimate to have a complete bathroom overall- I wanted a 1960's long narrow bath to be gutted and become handicap accessible and I wanted a walk in shower. The completed job is beautiful and the price was excellent. There was a large amount of tiling involved: shower walls, decorative trim and a shower insert as well as the entire floor. Richard is very precise- he makes sure he gets it right. He had never done the type of sloped floor we needed in the shower and he did considerable research to do it correctly. (that part had me nervous because if the slope isn't correct there would be major problems. He did it perfect). I also appreciated how they cleaned up after themselves every single day. On his 3rd visit in the spring of this year, we had several small jobs done- fixing a door, taking down the ramp and storing it, etc. If you are in a hurry for a job to get done, be cautious: it WILL get done and done right, but maybe not on your time schedule. We will continue to call this company for other jobs.
Description of Work: construction of outside handicap ramp, complete bathroom renovation: gutting the room, new walls, closet, doors, plumbing, electricity, walk in shower, tiling, new toilet and sink.

Richard came over to fix a leak. Thought he had it fixed, but it still leaked. He came back a second time, found the problem and fixed it. He then came over when we had a big rain to make sure it was not leaking. He only charged his original fee. Richard goes beyond what you would expect from a repair person. He is very professional. I highly recommend him. Ben Miller

Richard was kind enough to go beyond his usual service area to give me an estimate on a variety of home repairs. He made me aware of a $40 fee at the time we first spoke. He went to the property and promptly provided me with a verbal quote of the estimate of his work (via telephone). However, he did not send me a written, detailed listing. While I appreciated his punctual response, I found the quote too high and lacking in specifics. Therefore, I did not choose to contract him to perform the work.

Richard was prompt in getting back to me with the initial contact and then with the estimate. The estimate was provided on 6/19/11, and the work began the following day on Monday, 6/20/11. My punch list included both interior and exterior jobs. Richard was leaving for a trip on 6/20/11, and had informed me that his 2 adult children who work with him, would perform the exterior tasks for me on Monday, 6/20/11. His son called me first thing Monday morning and established a start time, and they showed up right on time. They were both very pleasant and professional. They began work about 9:30 am and finished around 3:30 pm the same day. I was very pleased with the work they did, the time it took them to complete the work, and the cost. As soon as Richard returns from his trip, he will contact me to setup a time to complete the interior jobs we discussed. I will submit a separate report when that work is completed. So far, I can say that I would, and will, use this service again in the future.

Richard was great. He provided a very detailed estimate and did the work exactly as he said he would. In fact, in many cases he went above and beyond the estimate and did work that was not specified just because he saw that it needed to be done. He was on the job 100% of the time which was a plus for us when selecting him. His adult children work with him so they have the same work ethic as him. Have to say it took a few days longer than some of the bigger paint companies, but his scope of work is much greater and the quality and attention to detail was well worth the wait.

Exchanged calls, gave an estimate for the above. As Richard was doing the work I tried to stay out of the way but wanted to see what he was doing and how he was doing the work and to see the damage behind the obvious exterior damage. He and his son were very patient, covered the work in detail gave their opinion on what needed to be done and the cost of additional work if we wanted it done. Part of the problem was my delay in calling in the first place as the professionals we have called before Angie's list weren't. At least two are out of business but onward we go. Delay and the problems gets worse. I believe the problems addressed above have been fixed and the work is first rate. Found one additional nail in the driveway but the site was left very clean. Have other jobs to be done and we will give Richard the first call. Great Value.
Description of Work: Water damage/ant damage at the water downspout on the Northwest corner of the house. Front door wood damage at the base. Caulking around a speciality window put in seven years ago, same people that damaged the front door as it was being replaced. Terminate damage between the two garage doors. Painted the South wall ( to far off the ground for me at this time), replaced the light sensor close to the peak and will finish some deck work left by another contractor who went out of business. Speciality parts on which I just got a call from Lowe's.

Richard came out to look at the job exactly when he said he would and called within the day with the estimate- excellent workmanship, gave helpful suggestions for the design and finished the work quickly knowing that we had a time issue. The ramp was completed in one day. We were thoroughly pleased with the project and would definitely use his company again.

The experience was wonderful. He came out and listened to everything that I was wanting. He gave some really good helpful tips. He listened patiently and was right on time. Everything was wonderful but I hadn't budgeted for the $1,000. I only had budgeted $700 so I am doing a portion of the work myself and then I am definitely going to give him a call back to come and finish up. I really had a lot of confidence in what he was telling me. The estimate he gave was totally in line.
Description of Work: I got an estimate from Handyman Unlimited for painting and spackling. I was looking for our entire great room, which includes a kitchen, dining room and family room, to be painted. The bulkhead that separate the kitchen from the living room was coming loose and some other areas needed spackling. I also wanted a backsplash added in the kitchen. The great room has super high ceilings.

Everything went as planned. The job took the estimated time. The labor estimate was very close to final price and I thought it was a fair price. The materials that The Handyman purchased seemed somewhat high. I should have asked for receipts. I would say the work was exceptional. The Handyman pays a lot of attention to detail. I would call him again.
Description of Work: 1. Removed tub surround and old flooring; installed new tub, tub and shower fixtures and associated plumbing; tiled tub walls and bathroom floor. 2.

Glad I found Richard. This was a project that I thought I might be able to do myself. I am certainly glad I did not take it on. After Richard tore into the project, we found electrial outlets had to be moved, heating ducts had to be moved and the door opening had to be cut just right. There is no way I could have done it. Richard did a first class job. He did the construction, electrical, pumbing, everything. He cleaned up each day. He was right on with his quote for the job. I would highly recommend this company.

They did an excellent job and we were very pleased with the service. The thing I like most about this contractors is, that he can do everything. He did so much work and it is all great. He was here a lot and the whole time he was pleasant to have around. I would recommend him based on the quality of his work and his prices are reasonable as well.
Description of Work: We had a lot of work done, that lasted about four months. The work included painting and plumbing. They did all sorts of things. They remodeled two bathrooms, which included painting, new ceramic tiles, new fixtures, toilets, sinks, cabinets, and countertops. The bathrooms were relatively small. We have a 2500 square foot home and they painted the exterior of the house as well.
