The House Doctors were very responsive. They showed up on the same day I called to provide the estimate, and the work began two days after that. The company seems extremely concerned to leave the customer happy with the job and will do what it takes to make that happen. I would hire this company again for other carpentry work on my house.
Description of Work: The House Doctors restored much of the wooden structure of my 3-season porch. The job involved replacing all sill plates, rebuilding an entire corner of the structure (including some cement foundation replacement), replacing damaged cedar siding, new fascia boards for the gutters, and some moulding work. The job took one very skilled carpenter (George) 2 full days, and the job was finished to my complete satisfaction.

Bob and Mike were very pleasant to deal with. I was not at the property, so I e-mailed a description of what needed doing. Mike called me from the house the next day to verify what needed doing and gave me a verbal quote. I gave the go ahead to do the work and it was completed by the end of the next day. The work was conducted in a timely and competent manner. A good rating on Angie's List was important to Bob and he made every effort to make sure I was totally satisfied. I particularly appreciated that he was able to take a look at the job, give me a quote and then take care of what needed to be done immediately.
Description of Work: A number of different repairs to get a house ready to put on the market. Included patching drywall, repairing window sills and caulking.

Good. Very professional. The fact that for a high price, contractor had to come back to do a satisfactory job. Keep an eye on finished product. He did only what he thought he needed to do. Break down price so I could pick & choose what I needed & what was "nice to do".

I was very pleased with The House Doctors' response. They reviewed the driveway and advised me as to my options. They advised me not to do as much patching as I had thought because, in their professional view, the patching would not work on various parts of the driveway. The part of the project that they did advise to do went very well.
Description of Work: I had a series of cracks in my driveway filled with vinyl cement.

It is very easy to work with The House Doctors. Their response time is excellent and work began within 24 hours of my initial contact. Workmanship is very good - I had a lot of confidence that the contractor knew what he was doing.
Description of Work: We reconnected some lighting circuits from the basement to the outside of the house. We also installed various electrical outlets on the outside deck. Finally, there were some repairs made to certain light switches.

Received an initial call from Bob to talk about the work that needed done. George (employee?)called to schedule the walk through estimate for Friday at 7pm. He called around 5pm to reschedule due to his house being flooded. Not a problem, completely understood. Rescheduled for Sunday at 9am. At 10am, after no phone call, he pulls in with a woman and child in the car and says ''I was running a little late''. George did call later to apologize but I opted not to do the estimate or reschedule the appointment.

What I like about The House Doctors is that they are responsive, can do the work quickly, and don't need to be ''managed'' during the day because they are professional and skilled. I didn't bother getting quotes from others for this job. Bob called me back fairly quickly (i.e., within the day) and he said he would try to find someone to do the work for me the next day. He called back in an hour and said he found someone. The person who came was professional and came when he said he would. It took him about six hours to do the work. My only complaint is that he didn't do a great job cleaning up after himself--he said that he didn't like to throw out the packaging in case we were going to return anything, however, I would have preferred if he just brought everything downstairs instead of leaving the packaging all around the house. Bob called that night to make sure the work was done to my satisfaction--overall, it was.
Description of Work: Handyman services: installed 15 window fixtures (blinds and rods), installed an air conditioner, fixed an outdoor wood chair, took 2 screens to be fixed (will be billed later once they are fixed)probably a few other things I can't remember!

I was initially sold on Mr. Vecchio's (senior) attitude and willingness to go above and beyond. He was eager to do a good job, and seemed to take pride in his reputation. Because of this, I was floored by Mike Vecchio's response. This is certainly not the kind of customer service I expected after my initial experience with the company. For a company like this, I would want to save others the aggravation I've gone through. I would go out of my way to warn others about this company and the intimidation I experienced.
Description of Work: I hired them in May to clean my gutters. I mentioned at the time that I thought the front right corner gutter might be clogged. The worker claimed that he had dumped a 5 gallon can of water down the gutter and it wasn't blocked. In July, I hired a landscaper to install a retaining wall and I mentioned my concern because he was working in the general area. He said it still looked like it could be blocked, and I should make sure. I called Bob Vecchio, and he gave me his son's number to call. I called Mike Vecchio and explained the situation. Mike paused, then asked, "Do you want me to clean them again? I'll have to charge you." When I explained that I'd had it serviced 7 weeks ago and wasn't sure they were cleaned properly that time. He became frustrated, and used very coarse language to say "What do you want me to do?" He cursed at me on the phone.

Response from The House Doctors
NOW, THIS IS THE HOUSE DOCTORS' SIDE OF THE STORY. YES, WE CLEANED THEIR GUTTERS OUT IN MAY OF THIS YEAR. THEY PAID IN FULL. THEN, ABOUT JULY 19TH OR SO, THE CUSTOMER CALLED TO SAY THAT ONE SECTION OF HIS GUTTER MAY HAVE SOME DEBRIS IN IT. I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD HAVE MY SON MICHAEL CALL HIM TO DISCUSS. MICHAEL CALLED HIM THAT VERY EVENING AND THE CONVERSATION STARTED OUT CORDIAL ENOUGH BUT QUICKLY DETERIORATED AFTER MICHAEL TOLD HIM THAT AFTER ABOUT 7 WEEKS; THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT NO NEW DEBRIS ENTERED GUTTER ESPECIALLY THIS SUMMER WITH ALL THE TORENTIAL RAINS AND WIND SWEPT RAINS THAT CAN AND DOES CARRY DEBRIS INTO THE GUTTERS. MICHAEL TOLD HIM THAT WE WOULD COME BACK OUT BUT WOULD CHARGE HIM ABOUT HALF OF THE ORIGINAL AMOUNT TO CLEAN THE GUTTERS. HE BALKED AT THAT AND HE BECAME INDIGNANT AND DEFENSIVE AND OFFENSIVE WITH MICHAEL AND TO BE HONEST WHICH I ALWAYS TRY TO BE; MICHAEL DID LASH BACK AT HIM AND THEY DID QUARREL. IT'S A SHAME SINCE I'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR OVER 32 YEARS; I DON'T HAVE TOO MANY PROBLEMS WITH CUSTOMERS--THEY'RE CONCERNS ARE HANDLED MANNERLY AND QUICKLY BUT WHEN ATTACKED, WE WILL DEFEND OURSELVES TO. MY REPUTATION IS EVERYTHING TO ME RIGHT BELOW MY FAMILY WHICH COMES FIRST. I HAVE HUNDREDS OF SATISFIED CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE USED US FOR YEARS--SOME FOR OVER 30 YEARS. TRY US; YOU'LL FIND OUT THAT AFTER TRYING THE REST, COME TO US FOR THE BEST. THANK YOU. BOB VECCHIO

Overall work was good, but a little pricey. They missed a section of gutters the first time they came out. They did come out the same day to clean the parts they missed.

Bob was extremely pushy, erratic, and unprofessional. I called one day to try to diagnose a problem with the gutters. I said I would make sure the water was on at the house and then call to schedule an appointment to have them cleaned. He called the next morning and said, "My guys are in the area, they can be there in half an hour." I said I wasn't ready, give me more time. He said, after a bit of back-and-forth, in a very exasperated and impatient tone of voice, "You know, why don't you find someone else to do this. I'm trying to help you out here, my guys are in area, etc." As if I, the customer, was expected to work around his schedule and was being entirely unreasonable for requesting that I call him when I was ready. Unbelievable. In general, he was very pushy. I would never trust someone like this to work on my house.

Response from The House Doctors
PLEASE KNOW THAT THERE ARE ALWAYS TWO SIDES TO A STORY. SHE CALLED ABOUT A DUPLEX HOME THAT HAD CONSIDERABLE RAIN WATER BACKING UP OVER HER GUTTERS. SHE WAS VERY, VERY INSISTENT THAT WE GET THERE ASAP TO CLEAN AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I TOLD HER ( THINKING I WAS BEING A NICE GUY )THAT WE COULD GET THERE THE FOLLOWING DAY. SHE WAS GLAD TO HEAR THAT. I ASKED IF SHE HAD A HOSE THERE AND THE OUTSIDE WATER TURNED ON. SHE DIDN'T KNOW BUT WOULD MEET US THERE OR GET THERE BEFORE US THE NEXT DAY TO BRING A HOSE. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT; SHE CALLS AND SAYS THAT SHE CAN BE THERE BY 12:30 P.M. TO MEET MY GUYS AND GIVE THEM THE HOSE. NOW MIND YOU; I HAD MY GUYS SET TO GO THERE FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE SINCE SHE WANTED IT DONE NOW!!! AFTER CALLING ME TO SAY SHE WOULD BE THERE AT 12:30, SHE CALLS NOT TEN MINUTES LATER TO SAY " BOB, I JUST CAN'T DO THIS TODAY" I SAID BUT WE SCHEDULED YOU TODAY BECAUSE YOU WERE IN SUCH A HURRY. I SAID, MY GUYS ARE IN YOUR AREA. WHAT DO I HAVE MY MEN DO NOW THAT YOU HAVE CANCELLED YOUR APPOINTMENT. SELFISH AS CAN BE. SHE COULD CARE LESS AND YES, AT THE END AFTER WITNESSING TOTAL SELFISHNESS ON HER PART I DID GET A LITTLE INDIGNANT BUT I BIT MY TONGUE TO BE SURE. MY MEN HAD NOTHING TO DO FOR THAT 1 1/2 HOUR TIME SLOT BECAUSE OF HER BUT I HAD TO PAY MY MEN FOR THAT TIME SINCE IT WASN'T THERE FAULT. YOU CAN'T PLEASE SOME PEOPLE BUT IN 32 YEARS THAT I'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS, I PLEASE 991/2% OF THEM. HOPE YOU READ THIS WELL AND UNDERSTAND. THANKS, BOB VECCHIO

The gutters were cleaned in a timely and professional manner. The workers had an opening in their schedule and were able to perform the work even earlier than originally promised. We very much appreciated their prompt response. I would certainly consider The House Doctors to perform additional work in the future.

Very disappointing first experience. Over the phone, I told Bob Vecchio (owner) that I had a variety of projects I needed handled. When I wasn't available that afternoon for him to come visit my house (he was in the area), he told me that his son would call me back to schedule a time that was convenient. I'm still waiting for that call back. It left the impression that if it wasn't convenient for them, then they wouldn't bother following up.
