Bryan's Handyman & Home Improvement Service

The service was excellent, prompt, and quick!

The 2 men were consummate professionals. They called ahead to let us know when they were coming and showed up on time. They knew exactly what they were doing for each job. They came equipped with every tool imaginable! They were prepared for every eventuality. They cleaned up after each project, leaving no trace that they were even there. I would definitely use Bryan's Handyman & Home Improvement Service again.

When calling for an estimate, Bryan and his lovely wife Josie came out to spec the job - they were running a little late, and called well in advance of the apt to time to let us know. The price for the work was fair and the crew arrived on time on the agreed work date. Xaiver and George were professional, NEAT and a pleasure to work with on this project. There was an unexpected challenge with the lighting, and they checked in with Bryan, who called me and we agreed upon the additional costs and work proceeded uninterrupted. Delighted with the results!

Everything went very well. Roofing crew was clean and thorough. They had to go through the bedroom window to gain access to the roof. Very pleased with them and their work. Yard installation of drainage pipe was done so neatly, I almost did not know the job had been completed since I was not at home when the work was being done. I absolutely plan to use Brian's services again. I like that he can do electrical and plumbing, etc and is licensed to do these things.

The price was reasonable. He did a very good job. I would use him again in the future.

Bryan and Josie came out for the initial inspection. Bryan is very thorough and seems to see the problems as they are. My floors were poorly installed and not level. The transition plates were too big and overlapped too much which looked funny and caused a potential tripping hazard. I am very pleased with everything they did. The floors are level and beautiful. They even reinforced the floor from the basement which appears to have made all the creaking go away. Well Done! The vinyl flooring in the kitchen is great, but the porcelain foyer is absolutely gorgeous! The access panel they installed for my shower is just right. I called a plumber several months ago to fix a leak in the shower. The plumber had great difficulty fixing the leak because he didn't have proper access to the shower plumbing apparatus. The plumber said he could put a hole in the wall but would not be able to patch it up. Bryan's Handyman & Home Improvement Service installed an access panel for me and changed out the shower/bath faucet and spout. I enjoyed working with both Bryan and Josie. Bryan was easy to reach via email or phone. His responses were timely and accurate. I recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a professional experience with solid pricing. Thanks again Bryan's Handyman & Home Improvement Service, I couldn't be happier with the results you gave me and hope to use you again in the future.

We had a mix up on the date, but we were able to get that straighten out easily. On the day of the work Bryan showed up with his crew (4 guys) and showed then all the work that was needed. The guys were very polite & professional. They went right to work and everything was finished in about 2hrs. Overall I was very satisfied and would use them again.

1. My initial request for a written contract was ignored. I never got one. Because of the many positive reviews on Angie's List, I decided to go with the estimate, dated 4/28/2014. Bryan gave me a starting date of 6/3/2014. A little later than I had expected, but I OK'd it. 2. I had previously used a contractor who worked with me as a team (discussed options, helped me pick out items, made suggestions, etc.). Bryan did nothing of the sort: he would pick up items at Home Depot, but I had to pick out and order everything, right down to the color of the grout. No big deal, but I was disappointed that there was no rapport whatsoever with him; he strictly did what he was told, and no more. Although his crew was friendly and cooperative, Bryan himself came across as conceited and overbearing. He never came to check up on the crew, or to monitor the progress. 3. Because I was not used to this kind of process, I submitted a list of questions to Bryan on 5/15/2014. No response. I re-submitted the list on 5/25/2014, and received an email apology with the statement that my questions "had fallen through the cracks". By that time, I was no longer able to get some of the needed items (floor- and ceiling tiles) in time for the June 3 starting date. 4. The job in one of the bathrooms did start on 6/3 but could not be completed because of plumbing hardware that had to be installed in the new vanity, and was not available. The crew left, and no date was given for their return. Since they had to remove my washer and dryer, which are in that bathroom, in order to install the new floor tiles, they omitted to put them back. When I called to alert Bryan, I was told that this had been "an oversight" (SOME oversight!). The crew returned to reinstall my appliances. 5. Because of the delay in the delivery of the tiles, etc. (which did not arrive until early July), I was informed that Bryan's schedule would not allow him to finish the job until mid-August . As the delays were caused by THEM, I insisted they finish sooner; they so did by mid-July. 6. At the completion of the job, I was presented with a final bill that contained a number of items not included in the original estimate, and was 30% higher than the original estimate. Although I have sympathy for unexpected cost overruns, none of these items had ever been mentioned to me, nor sought my approval for. I refused to pay for the overruns , which, for the most part, were unreasonable and/or non-existing. 7. Although the work itself was not altogether below-par, I did have some complaints: a. no touch-up painting was done where the new vanities did not cover the outline of the old ones. b. one bathroom door had not been painted. c. boxes with items, stored by the crew in my dining room, as well as foot prints, had left stains on the carpet. d. a towel bar and faucet of the old vanity, that I had requested to be retained and put on the new vanity, had been removed and discarded. 8. On 7/22/2014, Bryan came to my home, agreed that the 30% unauthorized overrun was unreasonable and took it off the final bill, and had my complaints mentioned under 7. corrected. He apologized for all the miscommunications and misunderstandings (were they?????), and said he hoped that his correcting the mistakes would have restored my trust in him. It has not, and I will not use him again, nor recommend him to others.

They did a great job replacing molding and door knob. We will use them again in the future.

Bryan and his crew have been great to work with. He and his wife came out to provide an estimate and schedule the work, and they were very professional and friendly. It's been easy to schedule work with Bryan and his prices are reasonable for the work performed. I'll certainly be using him again in the future, and would recommend him to anyone needing some help catching up on their to-do list or any work needed around their home. Thanks!

Everything went as planned. Very pleased with the work and timeframe in which it was completed.

They did a tremendous job. Very professional, explain things clearly when they came to view and give estimate. They know what they are talking about. The team of gentlemen were the same. They turned a eye sore to a beautiful shed. I cannot believe the difference. It is wonderful. We will definitely call on them again when needed.

Very professional. Great communications. Bryan came in, gave us some suggestions and then emailed us a price. We scheduled. His employees arrived, were very courteous and respectful. They did a great job and were careful when moving items not to ding anything. Very satisfied. Thanks,

Covering a brick fireplace with sheetrock may seem like an easy task. Trust me, nothing in my house is an easy task. We started with bricks that, when built in 1976, were probably all the rage as far as decorators were concerned, as there were at least 75 - 100 bricks that were set 90 degrees to the wall and jutted out about 3-4 inches. All of them were offset from every other one, so it wasn't as easy as just putting up some 2x4s. That fireplace has been a thorn in our side since we moved in, in 2003. We had always wanted to cover it up and bring the house up to a more contemporary style. Bryan's team showed up exactly at the agreed upon time and took great care in moving everything that needed to be moved, to give them freedom to work and protect the furniture. Did I mention that the fireplace rises to a height of 18 feet? That said, the first thing Bryan's team accomplished was to set up a shield that ran from floor to ceiling, which protected the rest of the room from flying debris caused by the chiseling of those awful bricks. Once the bricks were shorn away, they proceeded to put up the 2x4s to accept the sheetrock. As we were also going to place tile around the opening of the fireplace, Bryan's team also put up cement board to protect the wall against heat as well as to form a sturdy base to accept the tile. The work on the sheetrock, cement board, taping and spackling went quickly and without incident. Like I said nothing in my house is easy. The wave pattern of the tile, as odd as it may sound, was confusing and ultimately had to be laid out on the ground to make sure everything lined up perfectly. In the end all the cuts in the tile were perfect. Painting the wall was also no easy task. The paint we chose was to have a brushed suede effect and had to be applied in a precise pattern - first applied in a "W" pattern, followed by an "X" pattern. When you stand back, the paint work actually looks like brushed suede and you can see the subtle variations in color, all from a single color. All in all, the finished product looks awesome and Bryan, Josie and their team did an incredible job. One thing that truly did impress me was Bryan and Josie's communication, presence and follow-up. It was reassuring to know that they were on top of their crew to make sure everything turned out the way we had envisioned. If anyone asks me if I would recommend Bryan's Handyman and Home Improvement Service, I would say yes in a heartbeat. I promise, you will not be disappointed! I'm already starting to lineup the next project for Bryan to get started on. Thank you to Bryan, Josie and all the crews who worked on the project.

I felt comfortable with them. Although he wasn't the lowest estimate, after speaking with him he adjusted his prices to buy me the same price as the lowest estimate. He was professional.

Bryan and his team have been great to work with, through more jobs than originally expected. He and his wife came out to provide an estimate and schedule the work, and they were very professional and friendly. He even recommended that we install a wine rack where we were just going to do tile. We loved the idea so much that we had a cabinet custom-made to fit the space! The crew Bryan sent to do our work was also extremely professional and easy to work with. They were clean, quiet and friendly, and did great work. It's been easy to schedule work with Bryan and his prices are reasonable for the work performed. I'll certainly be using him again in the future, and would recommend him to anyone needing some help catching up on their to-do list.

Bryan and his team were very punctual and professional throughout the entire experience. I emailed Bryan to arrange a time for us to meet at my house for him to provide an estimate for the work we needed done. Bryan worked with my schedule to meet on a Saturday morning. We walked through the house and talked about the two jobs - replace screen patio doors and install cable outlets in 2 bedrooms. After a few days, Bryan contacted me with a written estimate through email. The price seemed reasonable and his reviews on Angie's list offered praise that we felt comfortable. Three gentlemen on Bryan's team arrived toy house on the scheduled day of service. I was surprised to not see Bryan there with them, but that was not a problem. i just wished i would have known that in advance. The crew was prompt, clean, and professional. They introduced themselves, asked me to walk them through the house to make sure we were on the same page of where we wanted the cable outlets and then they got started. In about two hours, they were finished with both jobs and cleaning up the work spaces. I was thoroughly impressed and appreciated the quality of the work. The lead crew member asked me to inspect the work and if i was satisfied. I was. I fully recommend Bryan's Handyman & Home Improvement Service. They offered a fair price for quality work and courteous service. I plan to use them again in the future.

Crew was very good. They removed all appliances and plumbing fixtures and reinstalled them. They installed new corner round and completed on time.

From the moment the crew arrived to the moment they left, their work was of the highest quality, and we are very pleased with the results... even the cleanup was impeccable. I would definitely use Bryan's again, and would recommend them, with the understanding that you may have to be prepared to be flexible in terms of scheduling (this was true in our case, although I have seen no mention of it in other reviews, so our situation may have just been an anomaly). The bottom line is that the final result was exactly what we hoped for, and we are happy we chose the company to do the work.

The estimate came in at almost triple the person that we contracted with and double the estimate of our second choice contractor!

Bryan does a great job. He is professional and responsive. I would hire him again in a minute.

Everything went well. The electrician arrived on time, cleaned up after himself, and did a good job with all three installations.

Bryan's Handyman Service is excellent. They were punctual for the estimate, easy to deal with, courteous and extremely helpful. My job was actually scheduled the next day and completed in less than two work days. Beyond my expectations. The work is beautiful. Drywall was repaired, paint is flawless and I love my basement again. The team even helped me remove a large piece of furniture without question. Terrific people.

Wow. I am so beyond impressed that I don't have the words to convey my gratitude. Let's start with the work itself since that's what's most important when you're in a time of need. They showed up on time, got all of the work done promptly, and it was completed perfectly and 100% professionally! I had far better service from this company than with any large company we've used in the past. The quality of the work was top notch and they were very respectful of our space, and the cleanliness/cleanup/removal of debris. But the most impressive part was how fair Bryan was with his pricing. He was extremely competitive and he didn't take advantage of an unfortunate situation. I would HIGHLY recommended him to anyone that is looking for home repairs! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME.

Pass through was from the entrance way to the kitchen to make the rooms look bigger, they had to move an electrical line and then topped it off with Oak. Bedroom window was replaced with an exterior, lockable door and electrical lines needed be re routed.. They did a meticulous job from start to finish. No surprises, on time and professional. I will use them again
