Great experience. I can now open and close both my doors. He is an experienced carpenter.
Description of Work: I had a basement door that was sticking because the wood frame had swollen and concrete was pressing on the door frame. He had to remake part of the door frame. He also, adjusted a screen door that would not close properly.He showed me the screws to turn to adjust it myself.

Using a special tool, he was able to unfreeze the screw. He then proceeded to mount the mounting plate using a spread Molly, instead of one of those cheap plastic molly. Then proceeded to put back together the towel and remount. This is the 2nd time I've used this service and I will continue to use as needed.
Description of Work: I had a problem with a Hotel/Train Style Towel Bar in a shower area (over tile) that one side came off of the wall with the towel bar frozen to the mounting (frozen screw in towel bar to mounting bracket).

Charles responded promptly to my call, and sent an estimate within two days. He and his helper arrived one day later than originally estimated (weather delay on previous job). They were fast and very, very neat, with a thorough cleanup each day. Charles was very willing to explain what he was doing. Both he and his helper were polite to a T.
Description of Work: Removed old sheet roofing from sun porch, front entry porch and back extension. Sun porch had three old layers including original tin roof. Replaced with new membrane roofing material. Stripped and replaced asphalt shingle roof on garden shed.

Charlie responded to my phone call promptly, though you won't get a secretary answering ''Better by Butler'' but rather Just Charlie saying ''hello''. He measured, gave us a quote, and a date and time of installation. On the set date, he called to cancel due to another project running long but gave us a convenient date and time days later. He was a little late in arriving but it was well worth it. The removal of the existing stairs was more difficult than expected (when you own a home, isn't that ALWAYS the case?) and the new metal stairs came with directions that required a rocket science degree. After quite a few hours, they were finally complete. Better By Butler was meticulous in the installation and the cleanup, staying until everything was perfect. We didn't even have to vacuum! And, despite the installation being much more difficult then anticipated and taking a long time, the bill remained the same as his original estimate. Classy.
Description of Work: Charlie and his helper removed our existing attic stairs and installed new attic stairs.

Mr. Butler is very professional. He answered calls promptly and showed up for appointments on time. He repaired my leaking roof and windows and did excellent work. He brought 1 helper, who was also very professional, and they worked very hard the entire time they were here. They were neat and cleaned all debris. His prices were very fair, and he was very honest. We have had several torrential rainstorm since the work was done and no more leaks.
Description of Work: Repaired flat roof that was leaking, repaired 3 leaking windows. He added new roofing material and put it under the cedar siding and repaired several seams. He installed drip plates on the leaking windows.
