The first day they removed the counter top and re-installed the new counter top and it looked good. While removing the top, they ripped a hole in the wall and covered it by nailing a piece of board over the hole. They painted the top of the walls in one coat. The next day they came back and said that they weren't charging enough money, so they would only paint 2 walls and no ceiling and no bead board on the bottom of walls. They were told what we wanted done when they came the first time and $350.00 was the price we were quoted for the job. I paid them the first day they were here. Then they said they were doing too much work for what they got paid and that they would only paint 2 more walls, not all 4, not paint the ceiling and not do the bead board at all. So My daughter said she would pay them more , another $250 if they would finish, but they said no ceiling, only 2 walls but they would put up the bead board. They began to argue between them as to how to put up the bead board, packed up their tools and left without a word, just left. We haven't heard from them since, I didn't pay the extra $250, and now I will find someone else to finish the job. Just as well....

Hi so you had New countertop, plumbing, and sink installed for $250 including materials.we did 2 coats on walls and when I first spoke to your daughter the pricing was beyondfair in the work being performed. I apologize but the reason I wish not to work with you was becouse your daughter was difficult to work with and we where wondering why the person that is paying is not talking to us. also we did not put a hole in the wall the walls where falling apart like the ceiling I do have pictures if anybody needs and that piece of wood was there and we put it back.please be accurate on the reviews becouse I do keep records of all conversations and pictures. for the record you where not charged for painting wall's that job was completed.

Great, I would recommend MMJ to anyone who needed a helping hand around the house.
Description of Work: Initially I hired This service for some handy work, I later came to know Harris and his helpers were actually a cleaning company who also are very willing and capable of doing amazing handyman/renovation work. Harris really helped us out doing everything from painting our house, putting in light fixtures, new faucets, and many other things that I ended up asking him to do. They are great and always showing willingness to help and make sure we are 100% satisfied with their work.

Did not go well at all. The company never contacted me even though I did every thing I needed to do. I waited a week, all the days I reserved went by and I never heard from the company.I did how ever hear back from them when I asked for a refund. They tried to make it sound like it was all my fault. The person I spoke with said those dates I reserved were not available for services, maybe they should have called me and told me that and the dates I asked for services should never have been available to reserve on there site. Or they could have called me and asked me to move my dates for service. Don't know how well they clean they never came or even contacted me. Be careful fellow Groupon users!!

Great. He was very responsive to my requests and willing to help. He seemed intent on doing a thorough job; even moreso than I needed sometimes, but that was fine, and he was willing to adjust to my instructions. I too was busy cleaning and decluttering in the house while he was there- it was great having someone there who would so willingly help me out as I went along. The one thing people might want to know in advance is that the three hours of cleaning time, also includes the set up time, and then he plans on taking 1/2 an hour at the end to pack up- so really it was under 2 1/2 hours of actual cleaning time. I hadn't expected that... although I will also point out that he was willing to continue working longer for me, and did - with the request that I simply pay what I felt was reasonable for the extra time. Overall, he worked hard and was very helpful and flexible. Thanks!
Description of Work: I had a lot of cleaning to do in my home- general cleaning of the bathrooms, some in the kitchen, vacuuming, and getting down cobwebs, etc. He also helped me move some of my clutter up into the attic. I was using a "deal" for three hours of cleaning. It was great that he was able to come the same day we got in contact with each other (the Monday holiday).

I contacted Haris of MMJ to set up an appointment for three home improvement projects. On the scheduled date Haris arrived with an assistant to begin work on installing a new backsplash i had purchased for my kitchen. The backsplash pieces were quartz stone with a peel and stick backing. Most every piece had to be cut to fit around light switches, electric outlets, corners and cabinets. It was no easy task and required use of multiple tools from heavy duty cutters to an electric saw. This was a project that took several days to complete. They added grout to finish the look and it came out great. The second project was refinishing old wood baseboards throughout the kitchen and hallway. They first had to nail and caulk all the baseboards that had separated from the walls over the years. They then painted them with a colored stain with shine coat. They turned out great and look brand new. The third and final project was removing old tile from the entranceway area of my front door. They first fixed some sagging spots and prepared the subfloor, laid out new ceramic tiles, some of which had to be cut to fit the area, then grouted the tiles. Once again the finished project looks great. Haris and his employees are great people to work with. They are considerate and pay particular attention to detail. They don't quit until the job is perfect. I will definitely hire this company again for more home improvement projects. To Haris and all his crew, my sincere thanks.

Very well, Harry and his coworker were terrific, and got more done in the 2.5 hours paid for than I thought they would be able to. They left my kitchen, office and bedroom looking better than I have seen them in years, and were able to get years worth of burned grim out of my oven. I would recommend them to anyone.

I contacted Harry to see if he had anyone who would be willing to wash down walls, all wood trim, baseboards, doors and cabinets in my large country kitchen/dining room, hallway, and bathroom. I wanted this cleaning done before those areas get painted. (For the record, it is nearly impossible to find anyone willing to wash down walls). Harry was able to accommodate my request and a date was set. On January 6th Harry arrived with one of his employees, Brittany. I did a walk-thru with them and requested they use my specific cleaning supplies using my method of cleaning. I was aware this is hard work but they both did an amazing job, exactly as I wanted, even going above and beyond by dusting ceiling areas and washing light fixtures and other things he found that needed thorough cleaning. They are experienced in working efficiently and quickly. I was very happy with the results and will have them back for the other rooms, and other projects very soon. (Harry and Brittany.....I thank you for another job well done)

I never bought the deal as the person who answered the phone rudly hung up on me.
Description of Work: I just called MMJ to ask a question before I purchased the deal for 2 hours of handyman work for $110. A guy answered answered the phone, as I began to explain that I saw his ad on Angie's List, he rudly cut me off, simply said "I'm busy" and hung up on me. Wow. I'm dumbfounded. I will never spend my money with a company or a person who answers the phone so rudly and hangs up on me. I was actually going to purchase more than one deal (several hundred dollars) but just had a quick question. I would have understood if he answered politely and said he was busy or if you are that busy, just don't answer the phone. Buyer be ware.

I was estatic with the results! The price was for three hours, two men at one and a half hours each. When they saw my garage, we renegotiated the price. Everything was removed from the garage except for my small chest freezer and refrigerator. Everything that I was keeping was placed to right in my yard and everything that was going was placed to the left. They swept out the garage and powerwashed the floor, they even dusted the shelves. Everything that I got rid of they took to the dump (trips). The was an additional cost but well worth it. When they finished, my garage looked almost like it did when I first moved in. I would not hestiate to use Haris again. He was polite, punctual, and great to work with.

I contacted MMJ to set up an appointment to have my basement cleaned. The owner, Haris, quickly responded and we set a date and time for 11/15/16. Haris arrived at the scheduled time with a helper and all necessary equipment and supplies. I have a very large, full size, unfinished basement which has not been cleaned in years. Haris and Ron went to work removing all cobwebs (which was no easy job), sweeping and vacuuming the floor, cleaning the window sills, cleaned all shelving, and even arranged items in an orderly fashion. It wasn't an easy job because the basement is unfinished and the ceiling is open, with exposed wood beams, pipes, ductwork and insulation. Even so, they were somehow able to thoroughly clean the ceiling, as well as the entire basement of all dirt, dust and years of cobwebs. This is the second time I have used MMJ and once again they did a fantastic job. I could not ask for anything better. I plan on using this company on an ongoing basis to work on multiple cleaning and other handyman projects throughout my house. My sincere thanks to Haris and his helper Ron for their hard work.

My husband & I started emptying the garage at 9:30 am when Harry & Crystal got to the house at 11:30 we still were not done yet. During conversations with Harry he told me I could help as much or as little as I wanted. Everything went way beyond expected. The information listed, that I remember, was for deep cleaning - work dusting down all the walls and ceiling, sweeping and vacuuming the floor, moved all shelving and items away from the walls to clean behind them. They dusted and washed off all shelves and other items, then organized and rearranged shelving which made more efficient use of the garage. They started moving the rest of the items out & cleaning the garage right away. I had set up all the 'stuff' in areas to assist in organizing - projects, garden/lawn, garage sale/donation, etc. I tried to stay out of their way as much as possible and let them work. Went out to see if they needed anything or had any questions. They worked until they finished the job, approximately 3 to 4 hours on top of the 1 1/2 somewhere between 4 - 4 1/2 hours. The floors, ceiling, garage door, all the doors - I did not have words to describe how good it looked. But you can ask Harry, he took before & after pictures! Total price paid was more than the $139, hubby not home for me to ask what the additional charge was.
Description of Work: This was a garage cleaning 2 people for an hour and a half. Haris called on his way over approximately 10 minutes or so before they were due. He and Crystal came at 11:30 to 'attack' my two car garage. We purchased the Angie's List Big Deal 3 man hours for $139.

I purchased the Angie's List Big Deal for three man-hours of garage cleaning and organizing. I received a prompt response from the company, which I appreciated, and a date and time was scheduled. I received an appointment confirmation call the day before. Today Haris and his partner Crystal arrived right on time. They came with all their own equipment and supplies necessary for the job. My garage was a disaster and hadn't been cleaned in a long time. This two-person experienced team went right to work dusting down all the walls and ceiling, sweeping and vacuuming the floor, moved all shelving and items away from the walls to clean behind them. They dusted and washed off all shelves and other items, then organized everything into categories and rearranged shelving which made more efficient use of the garage. They also cleaned my garage refrigerator and window blinds. They did a fantastic job, and I am planning on using their services again for my basement. It is refreshing to find a company that does a good job at a reasonable cost. Thank you Haris and Crystal for a job well done. I admire your work ethic and look forward to having you back again.
