Excellent. I was amazed at how much he got done in two hours. He is very knowledgeable and gave great suggestions on how the pictures should be hung (height, spacing etc). We have many more projects and will use Steve services again.

Steve responded promptly and arrived when he said he would. The job was done completely and even did a few extra things that came up while they were working that was not part of the original agreement, and did not inflate the invoice because of it. .I would not hesitate in using Steve again or recommend him to someone
Description of Work: Had some plumping issues, and needed a back of a cabinet replaced, and then they found that the valves under the sink was leaking so they replaced them. While cleaning out another drain they found another issue so they corrected that as well.

Steve was very thorough from our first contact forward. He was meticulous in planning and performing the work. He arrived on time with his assistant and was an expert at managing and coordinating their time so as to maximize their efficiency, ensuring swift completion. He was extremely knowledgeable and came up with the best solution to complete a somewhat tricky job.

Steve arrived on time, was very professional and did an excellent johb assembling the weight set that came with a ton of hardware and very vague directions. What Steve did in 4 hours would have taken me 4 months. Very happy with the job he did and I plan to call on him in the future

Steve sure knows his job. My husband had stripped all the screws trying to 'fix' the sticking door. Steve managed to get them out quickly and after examining the options, it was explained that the best way to remedy the sticking door was to plane upper right side down. Other, less time efficient options were explained, weighed and discarded. , The job was done quickly and efficiently. Steve charges by the hour and this was a one hour job. Will use him again.
Description of Work: Planed a solid wood door that was sticking.

The visit went extremely well -- a pleasant and competent man. Thank you Steve.
Description of Work: Steve re-hung three large shades on my new French doors. The doors were a different size than the old ones, therefore requiring some creative work to be re- hung. He also helped me solve several other bathroom and cabinetry problems.. He came early is very pleasant and does excellent work at a reasonable price.

Steve did everything well. Very nice. He did all the jobs on my list the - bathroom vanity door was loose, the outdoor storm was squeaking, drain needed fixing - he screwed it on. I also need my grill fixed but had the wrong part. He said he would come back when in the area. He did that on 9/30 and it is working fine.
Description of Work: He did a number of small jobs for us.

Steve arrived on time and went right to work. He repaired a badly cracked doorjamb and did an awesome repair job, saving me money by not needing to replace the whole door frame. He easily solved the problem of leaky toilets and hung a heavy shelf securely and safely. He was able to remove a heavy headboard from one bedroom and attach it to a downstairs bedroom with no problems. He then completed the day by assembling a newly purchased grill. The final task actually took the longest due to the complexity of the grill (tons of small parts - difficulty accessing connection areas) but Steve kept going without complaint. He made sure the grill worked before leaving. Never stopped for lunch or a break. Steve pays attention to detail and works hard. He charges by the hour but you get your money's worth. I enthusiastically recommend him and will call on him again as future needs arise.

Steve came over right on time. Our closet was completely off track and the tracking had cracked and had to be replaced. Steve fixed it competently and neatly. And he did it in 45 minutes. We will definitely be using Steve again for various home repairs. He's very nice, honest, efficient and reliable.

Great job by Steve and his assistant. Provided notice that he was coming and came exactly during the time promised. The job was more costly than anticipated but that was because there was more extensive damage to the headers than originally thought and no way to know about until the headers were uncovered. I would definitely hire Steve again and would recommend him to anyone wanting someone completely reliable, who provides quality work and is reasonably priced.

Steve was great, informative, detailed and very handy! Our new stove was not fitting between the kitchen cabinets so he trimmed the edge of one to make it fit! He also placed 1/4 round to close a gap between the floor and trim, and placed trim under a new granite countertop. The biggest task was to fill in a gap between my sliding glass door and wall that was left empty and ugly when the old wainscoting was removed, it now looks great!

Steve is beyond outstanding! The renovations enumerated above may sound straightforward but were plagued with issues. Two handymen hired previously were not able to address them, that's what prompted my enlisting Angie's help in identifying real talent. Steve is experienced, punctual, professional, and absolutely wonderful to deal with. From this point forward there will only be one Handyman to call with assurance the job will get done right, Steve Fried! Thank you! Angie's list lives up to its reputation.
Description of Work: Changed two shed doors, installed clothing rack, patio ceiling light fixture, curtain rod fixtures, and bathroom towel rack.

Steve was highly professional. He either answered all calls immediately or returned calls quickly. He even used texting which was convenient. He came over and gave a reasonable quote for the work using an hourly rate. I was impressed with his willingness to answer questions and his suggestions. He gave me options in terms of me buying the wood myself or him buying it and he explained the pros and cons of both in terms of time and cost. ALl in all, his estimate for the job in terms of time was accurate. He originally estimated 2 days based on our original # of boards to replace. We decided to do more boards last minute which resulted in 3 days work. Steve is super friendly and so is his assistant. They worked very clean, showed up on time, and worked fast and hard in very hot weather. I plan to use Steve again for future projects.
Description of Work: Steve and his assistant replaced a good portion of the top of my wood deck and the top rails. This was about 40-45 boards, most had to be cut at angles.
