Excellent! Dietmar (the European Handyman) is kind, prompt, detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and HONEST. He's been my go-to handyman for about ten years now, both when I lived in Westlake and now in my Lakewood home. There's a reason that the term "European craftsmanship" exists, and Dietmar delivers just that. I don't think there's a finer handyman-craftsman in town than Dietmar.
Description of Work: The European Handyman has done just about everything in my home that a handyman can do.

It went exactly as I expected. We have had Dietmar here at least two times previously (possibly 3, I don't remember) and he's as good as it gets. Not only is he VERY proficient at so many things, he's the nicest and most professional guy you could ask for. In all seriousness, if you need somethings done, call Dietmar now. He's very busy, books up quickly, and the faster you call him they faster he'll fix whatever you need. I am in NO way related to him or his business in any way, I just feel he really deserves the praise. Dietmar's the best.
Description of Work: New screen in patio door - new weatherstrippng on front door - caulking in bathrooms - toilet repair in two bathrooms - new shelving put up in laundry room.

Dietmar was hard working, thorough and had great attention to detail. He is experienced and competent in a wide range of household work. He replaced a door and fixed another. Rehung shutters, performed drywall repairs, hung new window shades, adjusted kitchen cabinet doors, repaired wood flooring in our sunroom, and other tasks. Dietmar is very hard working and honest. He is on time and responsive. I would not hesitate to call him the next time we need work around our home and highly recommend him to you.

Response from European Handyman
The Home owner called me Friday morning around 10 am and i told him that i will call back later the same day to schedule an appointment for the next week.The home owner said this is fine and he will just leave the door open and not use it.I was on a job and could not give him an exact date when i can stop by the following week. That's why i called him around 5 pm the same day as promised earlier, and the home owner told me that he already hired somebody else.

We have never had a contractor who is more considerate and honest, but most of all, his work is outstanding. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone who needs a handyman. You won’t regret it.
Description of Work: We recently used European Handyman in our small kitchen remodel. Dietmar did the drywall repair, plastering, painting, appliance installation and most of all installing the glass wall tile.

Dietmar did a great job. He responded to my initial call the next day and was available to come out the following week. I'd expected to wait after reading reviews that he's in high demand, but definitely worth the wait. He completed the work within two hours and the price was reasonable. He communicates throughout the process and cleans up after the work is complete. Great Job and will use again!
Description of Work: We needed a few odd and ends done around the house, such as installing a TV mounting kit and mounting the television. We were also looking for someone to replace our existing range hood.

Excellently! Dietmar was on time and sensitive to our new carpeting. He was able to do the work in the drive so our house never had any sawdust! He was done so quickly that we asked him to install some shelves. Which he did with the same professionalism.
Description of Work: The bottom of some doors needed to be trimmed because we had new carpeting installed.

He gets an "A" +++! I don't want anybody else to know about him thought because when I call him he will be busy. It is just him. He is his own employee. It's like he is doing the work on his own house. Everything that he did was better than I would've done myself. That's how I judge someone that comes to do work on my home. If I am hiring you, you need to do a good or better job than I would do myself. I am hiring you because I don't have the time right now. He was just stellar. He was extremely professional and very pleasant. ?He was multi-talented and took the extra care. He didn't take any shortcuts on anything that he did. I was extremely lucky to be able to get a hold of him and have him come to do the work that he did. I found him on Angie's List and saw all of the positive comments about him and knew I had to have this guy. Over the last three years I have called six handymen and he came over to give me estimates, and the rest of them don't even bother to call back. This guy called back and stayed in touch. Every time he left the house, even to get supplies, I knew when he was coming back. ?I can not say enough good things about this guy. I wish I could clone him. I asked if I could adopt him as my son and have him move in.
Description of Work: He provided handyman services.

We had been back and forth for awhile and then I was able to get him out here, I mean, everything was great. He came in, I showed him what I needed done, he gave me an estimate on, I believe it may have even been the same day, scheduled a time to come out, came out, did the work and that was it.
Description of Work: He did a light inside the house and outside of the house.
