The workmanship was excellent. Thedoor closes fine, he fixed the old lock instead of using the new one I had bought. Both are working like new. You now would never know there were once craters in the walls. The walls are very smooth and even. We had tried to repair some of the holes ourselves and we had a mess in the bathroom wall. I did not think it could ever look as good ( just like new) as Art made them look. I would hire Art again for any work that I need done that he does. He came on time, and he kept in contact . His work was impeccable and he worked very fast. He was very willing to share his knowledge. .BTW I have a small dog that barks a little too much at strangers. Art showed me a very gentle technique to stop the barking. It worked within 2 days. I am happier with the decreased barking, and my dog is much less stressed when she comes upon a person in the street, or a car racing by. If you read this Art...thanks from me and Winnie.
Description of Work: He rehung a door that would not close properly, he fixed the lock on the door and he repaired several holes in various walls in the house.

It worked out very, very well. He contacted me immediately and we arranged the day. The price turned out to be slightly higher only because he went over the 2 hours, but it was agreed upon before he did it. It was an extra $50 for a portion of a 3rd hour. He was very good at clean up. We worked together. I have potentially scheduled him for further work. The price for the work that was done was excellent.
Description of Work: Taylor Home Repair pulled up a 20-year old wall to wall carpeting in the living room and hallway.

Art was very professional from the start. He came to inspect the job at the agreed time, and came back to do it on the agreed date. He called in advance each time to confirm that he would be coming. He was extremely friendly and polite throughout. The job was a little tricky as he had to climb up a ladder to do it. He got it all done promptly in one afternoon, at a reasonable price (he charges by the hour so we did not know in advance exactly what the cost would be). The quality of his work was superb, and we'll definitely recommend him to friends and work with him again.
Description of Work: Art removed rotten and damaged woodwork from an exterior wall of my house, and replaced and painted the area.

It took him about four days to complete the work and he cleaned up well after each day. He was responsive and available throughout the entire process. The service was good. He was very personable. He was also able to give my husband some tips and helpful recommendations of how to do things ourselves.
Description of Work: He did caulking work in our two bathrooms and did some light painting.

Response from TAYLOR HOME REPAIR
In addition to the caulking and painting, the grout on the floor of the stall shower had deteriorated to the point that all of the grout had to be removed in order to re-grout properly. The owner asked to check a ceiling stain under a bathroom tub and when I opened it up it was clear that the brass trap had corroded and was leaking into the ceiling. I suggested that they call a plumber to fix this. (I recommended one and he came the next day to fix it) I then closed the open ceiling and painted it. The master suite bathroom sink had a leaking faucet which I replaced.

The owner of the repair company did not show up even though time and day was scheduled. Very unprofessional.
Description of Work: Scheduled a time with the Handyman owner, Art to come over my place to get an estimate to fix my porch. He did a NO Show act and didn't even call to reschedule or even apologize. This is very unprofessional and has left a bad taste to have to deal with a repair company that is unresponsive.

The work turned out very well. We really like Mr. Balinkie and have used his services several times! He is very honest and returns all the calls on the phone. When he makes an appointment, he shows up. He does a good job and is quite reasonable. We would call him any time and we are very pleased with him.
Description of Work: He helped seal up a crack in the ceiling, replaced some side windows in the garage, put in a new bedroom door, patched up a hole on the inside of the garage wall, and has done much more.

It was beautiful! They did a really nice job! He is a local business. He had a family business in town for several years and he seems like a very friendly person.
Description of Work: We had some caulk that was installed improperly in our tub and was growing mold. He replaced it with the right caulking.

They were very good. I would recommend them. I had a good experience with Art Taylor. He is a good friend and I have known him since elementary school. If I had my own business, I would want to conduct things the way he does. He is responsive, he calls back to follow up, he is clean, and he does neat work. I appreciate the fact that I can get Art to come here and do what I need. I have had experiences in the past where people say they would come, then they don’t come or call back and a lot of contractors these days do that. However, Art is not like that.
Description of Work: I used Taylor Home Repair for many outdoor repairs around the outside of our thirty-year-old house. There were some pieces of wood on the exterior, underneath the gutters, that were replaced.

This was my first time using him. We thought he was very good. What we didn't appreciate is that he charges by the hour. He was there a long time. The job, which started out simple, got more complicated. He does a very good job. He's very thorough. He comes when he tells you he's going to come. His work product is very good. We had a follow-up problem. I don't think it's his fault.
Description of Work: He did some retiling for us.

I have used Taylor Home Repair service for several years. Art the owner is very professional. He returns phone calls within 24 hours. He is dependable, honest, courteous, trustworthy, knowledgeable and experienced. I am comfortable leaving him to work in my home while I am at work. I recommended Art to family members and to my townhouse association who also use his services. His prices are comparable to other handyman services but the quality Taylor Home Repair gives is superior.

He's creative, conscientious, is honest and does great work. He's done every kind of repair for me except sheetrocking. He's a great find and I would recommend him. I find him so trustworthy he has a key to my home and my office. He charges by the hour and add on supplies - very reasonable for the area.
Description of Work: I've used him for several things, the most recent being hanging things on the wall, painting, repairing broken wall fixtures, caulked and finished the bathtub. On other occasions he's also hung light fixtures, fixed a damaged ceiling, patched some carpet, replaced broken tiles, hung blinds (including measuring), fixed a hand rail, polyurethaned floor, installed shelves, installed a child gate, and installed a paper towel rack.
