They did a great job. They addressed 10-12 different areas in a day. They were reasonable in price. They were punctual. We spoke to them in January and they were not able to get out until March. It worked out okay because it didn't need to be done immediately. It did take a little bit of time to get to us. Once we set the date, they were there right on time. They were very professional and stayed on the budget they gave us.
Description of Work: I used Johnny On The Spot Remodeling & Handyman Services to do a number of things. They patched up a leaky roof and painted several doors interior and exterior. They pressure washed our fascia and siding on the outside.

I am sorry to say I would not use Mr Duffy again nor recommend him. John took 6 weeks to complete the job due to personal travel & a knee injury. Although John does have skills - he was quick to make sure he did not do anything that he might not be paid for - since I never objected to paying - this attitude was not needed. Due to his personal situation he seemed to rush the job - work was poorly done or undone as a result. EX: He charged an extra $200 for two hours to paint the railings brown on the deck - maybe 26ft all together. The paint he used on the railings was shiny latex and due to the Florida weather (rain & humidity) it never completely dried - it began to peel off within days. It has continued to come off anytime something touches the railing surface..I sent him a text with picture the next day after he completed and asked for a solution - he did not reply. He had moved to North Carolina. I am disappointed for these & other reasons - including my need to repaint the entire 12x24 deck myself as the paint Mr Duffy used in his addition did not match the sealer already on the deck. He explained the sun had lightened the existing deck but that did not turn out to be the case. I really hoped the job could have looked more professional when completed. I wanted a great back yard to entertain in. For what it cost I should have that.
Description of Work: Built out wood deck to replace 6x12 section that had been removed Painted overhang aluminum awning underneath and around edge - Painted deck railing and replacement area (6x12) Replaced overhang awning rod iron support post with wood posts Created 10x12 patio with pavers in front of deck Painted concrete floor by garage 15x15

I would not give "Johnny" the time of day and recommend you don't either if you are serious about actually getting something done. Mr. Duffy came to my property at the agreed upon time. We spent a considerable time looking at and going through the list of projects I had prepared ahead of our appointment (approximately 12 items). He told me he would try to get me an estimate by Friday but no later than the following Monday. No estimate, no call. I called him a full week after the deadline had passed to ask him if he was still interested in giving me an estimate. He said yes, absolutely, that he had gotten backed up but would have something to me by that Friday. Again, no estimate, no call. I essentially wasted 3 1/2 weeks waiting for him. He had the opportunity when I called him to tell me he couldn't or wouldn't be able to do the estimate or job but opted to keep me hanging.
Description of Work: I contacted Mr. Duffy to give me an estimate for approximately 12 handyman projects, both interior and exterior on a private residence.

On the day I called him he came over that afternoon. I pointed out what I needed done & he took notes. My major issue was not a roof leak, but rainwater coming down the roof & splashing between an uncaulked house exterior wall & window. He did rectify this where a previous (non-Angie's List) contractor couldn't come up with a solution. On the front of my house, the left side roof eave) had peeling away & rotting facia board. Duffy worked on it. On the right side, his work looks more like wet sand dribbled down to form sand castles. Residents of Marina Bay have pointed this out to me several times. His worker was assigned to paint over areas where the former contractor didn't. But, after the job was completed, I saw white painted smudged thumb prints in 5 areas; on a dark blue outside front door & the rest over a light yellow gold wall paint which is no longer available. Finally, Duffy did not do several tasks & suggested (no quote) that he would get them next time. There won't be a next time. I'm going to have to give his work at 70%.

I would not hire him back. I was too quick to go on Angie's List and rate him. He did not do a good job; as a matter of fact he did it wrong. It was so bad every once in a while the door would fall off or else I could not get it open all the way. He might be good in some things but in carpentry work he is not good. I had to have a contractor do the door over again in order to fix it correctly. In my opinion I spent way too much money but he was a nice guy. He was here on time and seemed professional.

He was supposed to fix screening for me and he was working on it one day and he told the renter’ that he would be back the next day. He didn’t show back up and he never told them that he wasn’t going to show. When I called him about it he said that his father was sick and the job was too small so he was not going to come back. I also asked him to fix some electric in the kitchen but the tenants still had the same problem after he was done. He also didn’t order the windows early enough to get them installed before the new tenants moved it. He did do nice carpentry work however. He is really nice guy but doesn’t seem to ever get anything done correctly.
Description of Work: He was supposed to get a house ready to rent.

I never heard from him again. I would have preferred he let me know that he was unable or unwilling to do the job than to not respond at all. I wasted time waiting on him and then had to call another service provider to get an additional estimate. I try to get 3 before deciding.

This was a very positive experience from start to finish. When I contacted Mr. Duffy for an estimate he came right over. He then told me the type and size of doors to order, and provided a written estimate for the work via e-mail. He showed up right when he said he would, and worked on the job full-time over a couple of days. He brought in other people to help cut the proper opening in the concrete wall and to replace the interior tongue in groove paneling, supervising their work the entire way. My wife and I are very pleased with the quality of the work performed. Plus, he was a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Johnny Duffy.
Description of Work: Mr. Duffy and his crew removed a set of windows in a block wall and replaced it with a set of french doors. They also removed a wall unit air conditioner and filled in the space.

It was done quickly and satisfactorily. For the price, I wish he had offered to prime and paint the repair, but he did not and I did not think to request.
Description of Work: We had a major leak in bedroom ceiling from faulty A/C work. John was prompt and figured out how to save tearing out entire ceiling, saving me money. He offered to do more work for me while he was here. He did one small repair as an extra and would have done more, given the price I paid, but I did not have materials necessary to accomplish fully.

Johnny is punctual, professional. The quality of the work is excellent and it seems there isn't anything that he doesn't know how to do. I am particularly pleased that he and his crew completely clean up after themselves. They didn't leave a speck of dirt behind. He even through in a few extras for me. While he was here, one of his crew used their blower to clean off my drive way, he drilled in new little 'feet" on a piece of furniture and hung some art work on my outside stucco wall. I plan to have Johnny back to resurface my garage floor and apply a new coating to my pool patio.
Description of Work: Install new door hinges and door knobs on 7 doors. Repair water damage to dry wall in the bathroom, re-texture and paint entire bathroom. Repair hole in plaster ceiling in garage, re-texture and paint. Re-caulk bathtubs and sinks in two bathrooms. Sand and restain wooden bench. Repair stress crack in ceiling.

I called John and he gave me an estimate and pictures of the deck showing the deck boards were loose. After removal of the boards John sent me pictures of the condition of the under structure and a change order increasing the price as the under structure was in very bad condition and had not been properly constructed. I was not happy but that was not John's fault. He completed the work and the deck is basically a new deck.
Description of Work: The boards on the patio deck coming loose and I called John for an estimate. He sent me pictures and gave me an estimate for replacing the deck boards. After removal of the deck boards extensive problems were noted and again John sent me pictures and a change order for the increase in price. In effect John had to do extensive work replacing the under structure.

Mr. Duffy was at the house for approximately 20 minutes and seemed very nice. He asked for my email address and my phone number and said that he would email me his estimate the next day. I never heard from him again. While I cannot speak to the quality of Mr. Duffy's work, I can say that he completely wasted my time and behaved unprofessionally. If he didn't want the job, he should have said so.

He arrived on time, did the work non-stop, cleaned up and left. Extremely personable & professional. You would have never known he was here except my chimney looks brand new.
Description of Work: My unused block chimney was detaching from the house & rain & animals were coming in. As per my request, he took the chimney 1/2 way down to the damaged area and rebuilt the upper half like new. Not only did he do a wonderful job on that part, but he discovered there was no wall behind part of the chimney and repaired that, also. If you ask me, he worked a miracle.
