Jack of All Trades Handyman Services LLC

Jack's wife handles the office, and if she does not pick up when you call, she will get back to you usually within a few hours. She sets up an appointment for Jack to come out and give an estimate. He usually does estimates in the evening or on Sundays. He comes out, talks and measures, and then will email the estimate within a few days. At that point, you can call the office to let him know if you want the work done by him. His wife will schedule you at that point. If you are picking out appliances, Jack will give you the option of having him pick them up when the job is ready to begin. We had him pick up the appliances, which worked well so that the stove and the cabinet did not sit in our kitchen for days. Jack and his crew arrived both times within a half hour of the start time, and worked hard all day, breaking only for lunch. They cleaned up after they were finished each day.

The man from them was good. He was very friendly. He was very good on pricing and knew what he was doing.

Excellent. Wish I was able to get the bank loan.

My wife and I interviewed 4 contractors and we realized early on that Jack was several steps above the rest. From the the way he talked about the project to the level of detail in his quote, we immediately knew we were in the right hands. Working with Jack, Keith and Chris could not have gone any better. Jack was here early every day and often still working when we got home. In the month or so that he was working in our house, we never had to worry about who was coming to do the work or when they were coming. Jack is a true craftsmen who not only make sure the job is done, but its done right. He really takes the time to think of all the details to make your space not only looks better, but is more functional as well. The total cost of the remodel included construction materials as well, making the overall cost fit within a tight budget. The quality of his work is second to none and we will surely hire Jack again. He truly exceeded our expectations and made our dream kitchen a reality.

He is a handy man and he is very good. He wants to come out for bigger jobs. He said to let them accumulate and then call me. I had a couple couple of small jobs. I called him and he said to have a couple and we will do them all at once. He doesn't want to come for a small job. That was my opinion. He was very good when he came. He came when he said. He was very knowledgable and he explained everything. His way of doing it worked. He got it picked it up, put it in and stood on it and smashed it in there. It stayed forever more. I live near an open field so he came and took out an old window air conditioner out of my bedroom. He covered it and made it solid. He did a good job with that. He wasn't that expensive. He did a couple of things and I though he was reasonable. I would use him again.

We were extremely pleased with the professionalism and quality of the work performed.

Jack and his helper Keith were wonderful. Jack looked at the job (1) and recommended we have the walls sheetrocked and not attempt to repair the old walls, as they most likely would not be totally smooth when completed. He recommended the brand of paint for us to choose a color and finish from, and gave us a choice of two baseboard moldings to either have painted or stained (our choice). After looking at the front of our house (2), he noticed cracks and said that having brickpointing (repairs) done for the effected areas probably would resolve the leak. He had a person who has experience brickpointing do work for him when needed. Jack said the entire job would take about two weeks. When we informed him that we were ready to go, we were put in the schedule (one month wait) and advised to empty the room of furniture. Since I would be in and our of the house during the day, I offered to give him a key to the house so they would not have to wait for me to return from bringing my son to school or stopping when I had to pick him up from school in the afternoon. They took down the shelves on the walls and removed the closet doors. Each day of the job, Keith and/or Jack were at my house by the time I returned home. If something had to dry, they left by 1:30 or 2, but stayed till 4 or 5 if curing was not an issue. Every day they cleaned up the room and kept the dust level through the rest of the house at a minimum (they usually had the bedroom door shut). Jack kept me apprised throughout the process of what was done, and was was to be done the next day or two. Jack informed me that since the ceiling and wall could not meet properly (paneling had actually gone above wall level into ceiling), he recommended that he would use simple crown molding and match finish to base molding. We agreed. One day the front of the house was brickpointed, and since there was extra cement, they fixed the my bottom front step at no extra charge. So far no leaks. The bedroom looks really good (we had molding painted, they painted and put up the two shelves I previously had on the walls to match the color to the molding. He changed the old sockets to new three prong sockets (his idea) and put the outlet covers on. Jack said he would come back and put up the new blinds were ordered when we get them. Jack began the job on a Tuesday and finished on a Saturday (2 weeks). The final price of the job did not not significantly change from the estimate. My husband and I were pleased with Jack's (and Keith's) work, and would hire him again for future projects.

They did a good job and did what I asked them to do. They were timely. I was pleased.

His prices were very reasonable, he was prompt, did his job and I have no complaints!

He was very nice. He did not seem as knowledgable as the others that came out.

They did fine. I would use them again.

Jack looked at the door. The back door didn't need anything except that I wanted him to look at maybe covering it with aluminum on the exterior. He was unable to give me any kind of price about weather proofing the front door. He said he'd get back to me. He said he'd be open on Feb. 8. I never heard anything from him after that. At the appointment for the estimate he talked for more than an hour about his family. I finally called and told his wife that I'd never heard from him. About three or fours days later, she got back to me and said that Jack hadn't gotten around to finishing the estimate for weather proofing the front door, but it would be $2500 to replace the back door. I never asked him to replace the whole back door, just cover it. She said he'd get back to me about the weather proofing as soon as possible, but I still haven't heard anything. I finally just asked someone that I'd heard about at my hair dresser.

I called Jack to have a small repair to my upstairs bedroom drywall that had leaked due to a faulty roof flashing. i explained that the job was very small before jack agreed to come out. That did not matter and stated he would be out to give me an estimate. He came out looked at the job, gave me an estimate which I thought more than fair and I agreed to have him do the work. We set up a date which would take two days. He arrived on the first date at the time promised and went about his work in a professional manner. The job was completed as promised on the second day and the ceiling looks great. Jack was very professional, but easy to talk to. He explained the work in detail and made suggestions. I am more than pleased with his work and will have him back in the summer for a much larger project of painting the interior of my home. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. TJM

It took maybe two weeks to get an appointment with him and then when he got here I was comfortable with him. I did not receive the quote, so I called to check on it and while I was talking to his wife who is the person I guess takes care of the booking. I mentioned insurance and that started a whole big thing and I never did receive the quote. They called me and said that unless I show them the insurance work up that I would need to find a new vendor or something like that. It was very odd, very odd indeed and I was not comfortable doing that. It was a combination where some of it was insurance work and some of it wasn’t and it was just very uncomfortable and very bizarre. I just felt that this isn’t going to work and it was truly embarrassing and the whole thing was just wrong, very uncomfortable. He appeared to be very nice, but then I went through that situation where they wanted the insurance documents. I will not have interaction with him in the future at all.

I have used Jack of All Trades Handyman Services over the years for my home repair / remodeling projects and I have always found Jack (the owner) to be on time (he will call if he is running late), courteous, professional, and very detailed. I have been pleased with all the jobs that he has completed, his pricing is reasonable, and Jack would also make certain that I was happy with the final project. I have recommended Jack of All Trades Handyman Services to my friends as well.

Project went very well. Jack and his assistant were very professional. timely, resourceful, efficient and most importantly neat. Things were always cleaned up and back in order by the time I arrived home from work. Jack was good at offering recommendations and suggestions on how to do or add things I may not have thought of such as an additional electrical outlet in the room or adding corner shelves in the shower. Overall the room looks great.

He was unable to locate a replacement fan, and suggested contacting an electrician for this job.

I would recommended him to friends. He was very nice. I would give him and A grade. And I would use him again in the future.

They were responsive, there were some minor problems but they stuck to their word and i was satisfied in the end.

I called Jack because of his high rating on Angie's list and because he was in my area. Jack did come out within a week to give me an estimate and look over the work that needed to be done. After that all I received was excuses from his wife that he was busy and he would get back to me. Well it's now Dec. 28, 2011 and I haven't heard back from either of them. I am truly disappointed because at our meeting he seemed to be an up-standing, dependable and reliable guy. At this point, I would never recommend him to anyone. With that being said... can anyone recommend a licensed contractor to do 8000 dollars worth of work?

It went very well, from the contact to the estimates. The work was done in a timely manner; we were not inconvenienced without appliances, water or working space during the work period. We reviewed all work and, any issues were addressed. The invoice would then be sent after Fran confirmed that we were satisfied with everything..

, Absolutely the best. I would only use Jack for all of my home repairs / remodel jobs. I am 100% confident he would always tell me the truth. Jack did more than what I hired him for. He really is a good person that cares. A previous contractor did a sloppy incomplete job in the bathroom. Jack and his crew fixed the problems. He saw it was a problem for me so he fixed it. thats what makes him a caring person. I hired him for the new kitchen job, which is beautiful. and the backsplash design is gorgeous. Its all the little things that Jack did, when he did not have too do any of them. that makes him the best contractor of all. His price was more than fair for the job.

He was pretty good and he was reasonable as well. He explained the problem and I would definitely recommend him to someone else. The interaction that I had with him was excellent. He was excellent on everything. I will use his services again in the future.

I spent about $400 on that service. I liked that he was great and he did everything. I would say that he was totally honest and he told me that he was not the best person to do something, but said that there was somebody that could, which I really appreciated instead of him trying to do it and not doing a great job. He was prompt and I felt that his prices were totally reasonable and he was happy to do all those little things around the house. I just gave him the list and he worked his way through. He also went and bought whatever bits and pieces that were needed for the job. When I e-mailed his office, I got a really fast reply. The only downside was that one time he came with someone else to do some work and they patched a board in a floorboard and the color match was perhaps not perfect. It was good but not quite perfect and it is in a place that no one would see anyway. I also noticed that a stain they used, splashed a little bit on a white trim along on the floor. I am not sure if I would use him for anything where the appearance really mattered because that just seemed a little sloppy. I was just a bit surprised and it made me think that he was great at fixing stuff, but I was not sure if he was the right one for anything more decorative or where I am looking for someone to be a little more careful. I don’t know that if it was Tim who did that or the other guy and I did not notice it till after they had left. To be fair, I did not give him a chance to say don’t worry and that he would clean it right off and I haven’t dealt with it since. Overall for a general handyman and fixing stuff, he was great.

They did quite a bit of work in my house. They were absolutely wonderful. I am going to have him come back and do more work which is a good thing. They were fabulous. They were one of the best contractors that I have ever used. They did a lot of work for me. They did everything for me back in the spring of this year like painting and anything that you could name. We are going to have them come back and give me a quote for some more painting work. They can do anything that you need to be done. They refinished some of the walls in my living room and in my bedroom. It was nice to know that they were very polite and they cleaned up as they went along which was unusual. It was cleaner when they left than when they came in. They were wonderful and they had great work ethics. They did not even take lunch or anything but worked straight through. They were the cheapest pricewise. They were the most reasonable compared to any of the other prices that I got. No one will be disappointed after using them. I would be completely happy to recommend them to anyone. There was nothing that they could have improved but they went above and beyond with everything that they did. They were here on a timely basis and stayed till the work was done. I had a door for which I wanted to have new locks put in and they did that. They did a beautiful job and I could not have asked for anything more. It was a pleasure to have them in my house. I would absolutely continue to use their services in the future.
