GOOD: Everything we asked was done for our home. BAD: Jack was not prepared and had to leave several times for "forgetting" to bring different tools (he charged his time for his forgetfulness). His work was shotty, leaving gaps in the trim and not aligning edges of the trim properly. Clean up was subpar, screws were left on the floor. I'm not sure if his price was fair but it seemed quite high for the lack of attention to detail. Next time, I'll just do it myself if I want it to look like that. Overall, I had higher expectations for quality.

Response from The Local Handyman
I explained to Ms. [Member Name Removed], at our first meeting in August, that I was extremely busy at that time with several large projects, and that I would "try" and schedule her late Sept or early Oct. As sometimes happens, the projects went much longer than anticipated. I'm still trying to catch up with July/August appointments. I'm very sorry that Ms. [Member Name Removed] was disappointed with our service.

excellent work by Mr. Jack Fox assistant Ben. The best handyman I have ever used. The work was professionally done. I was more than happy with the whole project and small amount of time to complete the work. I can't say enough about the hoppy the outcome was, I would highly recommend Jack and Ben. The estimate was completed as given. response was above average, actually out of 4 request Jack was the only one to return my call and the same day. Above all his price was more then reasonable.

This is obviously a very nice review, which was greatly appreciated. However, I think it is just as important for the service provider to "rate" the customer. AAAA+. Ms. Silvera was extremely accommodating for the work we had to do, and an very pleasant person to work for. Something needs to be said for very nice customers as well as honest reviews of the service providers.

Description of Work: He helped us remodel our kitchen, bathroom, help fix a garage door, painted a room that had wood paneling, and installed a storm door.
