This was a major project. I have a very long driveway as well as add a patio. My existing driveway was blacktop and wanted to move to concrete with decorative additions. I looked to Stu to perform some of the services as well as contract the rest. While the project was not without issues some of them major by my standards, Stu was there the entire time working though them on my behalf and resolved every issue to my satisfaction. While I have utilized Buckeye Handyman in the past for painting, minor repairs and remodeling, this project took the relationship to a new level. I feel confident to work with Stu on any size project going forward. I recommend Buckeye Handyman for any size project.

We decided to hire Buckeye Handyman and Remodeling after reading the many positive reviews on Angie's List. Stu has an excellent reputation for his work in our community. I very much appreciate his integrity and his business model: he looked for ways to save us money on each project without comprising his commitment to quality. We were on the same page: because this work was being done to sell our house, we did not want to overspend on the projects and at the same time we did not want to have shoddy work done for the new owners. Stu and his craftsmen were punctual, polite, friendly, and very good at what they do! They seem to enjoy their work, and do it with joy. Not everyone loves his job, but Stu does, and that is cool. I really enjoyed the days that I got to be at home talking with him while he worked (although I probably slowed him down), and I also never had any concern about leaving him or the others alone in my home at any time. The attention to detail was most excellent, they always cleaned up every work area each day, and they never left out dangerous tools that my children would find. I give Buckeye Handyman and Remodeling a Grade of A +
Description of Work: Stu did several jobs for us including a small bathroom remodel: new sink cabinet, sink, faucet, mirror, light, wall cabinet, paint, some tile, and more I'm probably forgetting. It looked amazing and came in slightly under budget! Stu also fixed a long-standing problem under our kitchen sink, and installed a new disposal unit. Finally, we had him fix an outdoor faucet replacement that another company did with a Groupon special (and it was a HUGE mistake) - and he make it functional, no leak, and it looks like new.

I reached out to Buckeye Handyman originally to perform some work on my home on Ridgecliff Road. While obtaining those quotes, I requested he provide an estimate on behalf of my parents who are in the process of relocating to Columbus and are temporarily living with me. They had purchased a condo and wanted the entire living space painted. We met with Stu Cohen and he provided a quote for the work. It was an excellent quote and we agreed to move forward. After scheduling the original start date, we needed to make a change due to issues with closing. He worked hard with us to make the changes and adjusted his own schedule to start on the weekend. Throughout the process, he checked with us as unforseen problems with the walls were discovered inside the condo. He made extra effort to correct those issues and was successful in all cases. The work was beautiful. The work was completed on schedule and the final walk through revealed no issues. I was completely satisfied. I will also be using Buckeye Handyman for the additional work in my home starting right after Thanksgiving.
Description of Work: Buckeye Handyman was hired to prep and paint my parents new condo. They were extremely professional and the work was exemplary. They even repaired some issues with the walls that required spackling and there was no evidence that the walls had ever needed any work. They were extremely conscience of our expectations and worked very hard to satisfy them.

Stu replaced the lintel in the shower which had been cracked and leaking. He found the replacement piece, took care of everything, and left us with a shower that looks brand new. It has been used for about 9 months and no leaks or problems have occured. We will definitely call him back for some other jobs I have in mind!

He?s independent and he does almost all of his own work. He is very reliable and his prices are reasonable; he did insulation work for us for $1,000 less than another company quoted. He can?t work on things immediately but he?s done a lot of jobs for us.
Description of Work: Buckeye Handyman built a box to go around the gas meter that was installed on the front of our house. He also installed a fountain on our front patio and built an elevated box for it to be on.

We spent just under $2,000 on that work. They were very prompt in calling and came right away when I asked for an estimate. They did a very tidy cleaning job and there was no paint spilled anywhere. It was hard to know when they would be here because of the weather, but they came as soon as the weather was appropriate.
Description of Work: We used Buckeye Handyman last week and they did some exterior painting of the eve and trim of our house.

Since Stu works alone, the job takes as long as it takes. We have always been pleased with each outcome. Stu does each project as if he were working on his own home.
Description of Work: The terrazzo floor in the shower in our master bath developed a crack and damaged the ceiling below in the dining area of the kitchen. Stu cut a hole in the ceiling, replaced the plumbing, and then repaired the ceiling to better than original. He also removed all the tile walls in the shower and installed new sub flooring, faux marble walls, ceiling, and floor. He also installed new pipes and single control shower head. In addition, he added 2 faux marble shelves and a recessed soap dish, a new light, and a rimless glass shower door. It was a tricky job since all the walls of the bathroom are tiled, and he had to carefully work without cracking the ones adjacent to the shower. Stu has done several other projects for us in the past and always done excellent work--hard wood flooring in the family room, honey oak base molding in the kitchen and family room, beautiful tumbled paver patio and pergola, ceramic tile flooring in 2 bathrooms. He is very reliable and trustworthy. He usually does all the work himself to insure quality.

Stu did a great job and seemed very reliable. He made me very comfortable starting with when he came to give me an estimate because he explained exactly what would be involved, answered all of my questions, and taught me about my new house at the same time. I would definitely use Stu again for any type of work around the house from small projects to major remodeling.
Description of Work: Stu replaced the sill plate in my basement and sistered about six joists to repair where there had been termite damage to the home I had just purchased. He also installed a frost free faucet where the prior one had cracked, added a drip line to my furnace, and upgraded the connection from my stove to the gas line.
