Services we offer

Handyman.I do thorough, first quality home repairs of many sorts and often can fix problems others can't. Small jobs are just fine with me. I have an extensive background and a lot of experience in all facets of repairs and, I do only quality work intended to solve the problem not just band-aid it. I try to listen to my clients needs and meet them; the result is that most of my initial customers become long-term clients. Sorry but I don't text or facebook or email--please just call: 505-883-0048

Services we don't offer

Due to wear & tear, I've had to exclude some types of work especially kneeling or repetitive things like painting a whole home; though I do some painting in the course of repairs. No work requiring kneeling for extended periods (eg. floor tile, carpet, concrete,etc.), large drywall installs or heavy lifting

Both jobs went very well. Hal was quite knowledgeable about the construction, he had all the right tools, he worked efficiently, and he cleaned up afterward. He was also a perfectionist about doing the work right. He purchased or provided the needed materials, and he always showed up exactly when he said he would. The final price was quite reasonable considering the amount and quality of work.
Description of Work: We had an old storage shed next to the house for which some of the shed structure had deteriorated. We also needed to make way for some stucco work on the house. Rather than tear down the shed and replace it as I proposed, Hal suggested a way to save money by just temporarily moving the shed for the house repair work and then doing the needed structural repairs to the shed. We also needed to replace some deteriorated wooden steps.

When I first called Hal, he was prompt in returning my call. He made an appointment to come give me an estimate. On the day of the estimate, he called when he was on his way and was here right afterwards. He looked around and give me an estimate which I accepted. He then made an appointment for doing the work. On the day the work was to be done, he arrived right on time. He had done some of the work in his shop at home and installed what he had done. He then did the rest of the work in a timely manner. He was friendly, professional, polite and an excellent worker. My biggest complaint when I have workers here is the mess they make and if they clean it up. Although he made only a little mess from sawing some wood, he was wonderful about cleaning up every area in which he did any work. I will definitely call him again any time I need something done.
Description of Work: I had various things around the house that needed repaired.

Waited all day for call back only to find out that he does not like going into Rio Rancho. This should have been stated in his description and I would not have wasted my time waiting for his call back.

Response from Fix It 4U-handyman services
My profile is supposed to make clear that I work mostly in NE Albuquerque. I don't do Corralles or Rio Rancho or any of the other fistful of places that are listed erroneously. Unfortunately I have been unsuccessful at getting these places removed. AND I don't text or email appts either. My profile says CALL. If you do call I will respond even if I can't do what you need. Sorry you wasted your time but it wasn't my fault.

I called Hal on Tuesday for this work and he was able to respond the following morning at 9:30. He arrived early and went straight to work. He had little difficulty removing the over the range microwave. Then he took measurements for installing the vented hood vent and drilled the necessary screw holes. The provided screws would not work so he used toggle bolts he had. After some frustrating moments trying to match up the hood to the toggle bolts, he was finally able to complete the installation. The next challenge was hooking up the venting which required a vent reducer and elbow. He got it all done and everything looks great. He cleaned up everything, used a vacuum and helped put the range back into place. He was friendly and worked efficiently. I would call him again for services.
Description of Work: Removed over the range microwave and installed vented hood fan.

The one that I finally got on Angie's List was Fix It 4U. He is the one that installed the door. He did it all in one day. My experience with this provider was wonderful. He did a great job. He did what he said he was going to do. We looked into another company to do it but they were quite more expensive. And then he came and he got a door and we had a little dog door in the bottom of the back door. He reinstalled that very well. He had to rebuild the frame of the door. We have a real old house and he reframed the whole door and installed a new one. What stood out the most about him was the protection with him and the price. I would recommend him highly for anything because he does all sorts of things. He does a little bit of plumbing and any kind of small jobs. I would recommend him for anything. I would rate him excellent.

Excellent. I thought this was going to cost me a fortune, but it cost me nothing but a little time. He could have charged me to come out and look at the problem. Instead, he just told me how to easily fix the problem and I fixed it.

He was excellent and I would highly recommend! The doors that were delivered by the door company did not exactly fit the existing door openings and he did a fantastic job of adapting the doors to fit. We were very happy with the results.

Great! Scheduled an estimate promptly, arrived on time, completed all work and did a beautiful job, making a special effort to conserve the existing molding since there was none available to match. Looks great!

I would have to grade as 'incomplete', since I never heard back from this provider. Can't fairly grade on quality of work and price, but can give low marks on professionalism. People pay to be on Angies List and expect its providers to be professional.
