Description of Work: BIll is a CRAFTSMAN by any standard. His prices are absolutely fair. That's the reason he first comes to mind whenever we need work around this 100 year old house. The most recent work was to replace the old worn out closet doors with 5 spectacular, Bahama louvre doors and install appropriate, matching moldings around the doors. In addition, he replaced the old, dented, rusted radiator covers. To top it off, he painted the rooms a beautiful shade of teal with white ceiling and trim. He'll be used again for our next project.

Description of Work: I contacted Bill because of a broken latch on my sliding glass door. I sent him a few pics. Instead of charging me his house call plus parts, he gave me the opportunity to fix it myself. He told me what part I need, where to get it and where to find instructions on installation. Now that is a stand up guy. Will definitely call again. Thanks Bill

Response from Helpful Handyman Home Improvement
Customer is correct. Sometimes I get so busy I neglect my office work to make sure I am getting the jobs done in the field. Being a one man band isnt always easy. A simple phone call on my part would have avoided this negative review but I do deserve it and take my lumps when I deserve them. My sincere apologies. These were really nice people that I let down and I am sorry.

Review states "they" . its only me I do all the work and estimates. I believe this is an error. I never spoke to anyone at this address. If I am wrong I apologize but I dont believe it was me . I have another review that I never spoke to the customer or quoted but it show up under my company name. If I had done work for them they would have been happy !!!

Description of Work: Helpful Handyman repaired our pull-down attic stairs. The hardware had become bent, eventually came off, and had to be replaced. Bill ordered the replacement parts and reinstalled it. |I couldn't be happier with his service. He is very responsive, knowledgeable, and skilled- there doesn't seem to be anything he can't repair. I will definitely hire him again!

Description of Work: Helpful Handyman was not used. Apparently there was a communication problem. When we first started out, it was good. The gentleman came on time. We went through all the work that I wanted done. The gentleman gave several suggestions that made a lot of sense. We checked into some doors at the lumber yard that was suggested. After I got pricing on the doors, I have called Helpful Handyman at least six times over a period of time. There was never a called back. The reason I contacted Helpful Handyman was because of the great Angie's List he received and all the good reviews. I definitely would not refer him to someone. Communication goes a long way but in this case it did not.

Response from Helpful Handyman Home Improvement
When I first looked at the work needed I fixed his kitchen window no charge. I did not get back to him as soon as I should because of being too busy (no excuse I should have contacted him ). We did speak, I went back to the home to quote on another project. I spent an hour checking a garage door that wasnt operating properly,No Charge. I called and left a message with the quote for replacing window trim that was done improperly the first time by others,and replacing the garage door opener. Never heard back. My mistake for not getting back to you at first but I did fix your window for free and spent a good amount of time trying to save you money with the garage door opener. Hope all works out well.
