Previously my husband had tried this and nearly brought down the entire wall. Dietmar (I am not sure of the spelling of his first name), had the job done perfectly in about an hour.
Description of Work: He hung up a TV on the wall so that it is floating.

Dietmar tore out an old spa tub we didn't want, then framed the area required for a smaller tub and shower. We bought the tub/shower at Loew's. He picked it up and installed it, returning several times to check for leaks and adjust the water flow (hot & cold) to our satisfaction. It was a rather complex job. He also fixed our bathroom fans to work and vent properly. We've lost count of the different jobs Dietmar has done for us over the past 7 years or so, both at our new house and previous house. We don't know how we ever managed without him! He's done very large and complex jobs for us and some very small fix-it things we either didn't know how to do or didn't have time. He's always courteous, punctual, neat as a pin and does perfect work. We've referred him to many friends. You can't go wrong!
Description of Work: Latest job was to install a bathtub and shower.

Dietmar is a true professional and very thorough. His prices are very reasonable and he is a very efficient worker and very polite. He calls before he arrives and shows up on time and does excellent work. We will definitely use him for future repairs and remodeling jobs as we move forward with upgrades to our house. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and very high quality and courteous handyman. A+++++ across the board. The cost I put in above includes the first job as well. I may be off (under) by $100 to $150 (but he is worth every dollar). He is still working at this time so the approximate total may be between $500 to $600 for both jobs.
Description of Work: This was a follow up to the first job ("Dietmar") did for us. The firrt job he installed an Iron Cast Mirror coat hanger and also did some dry wall repair in our bathroom and installed two coat hangers (one in our laundry room and one in our laundry room). Today he is installing new sink fixtures in our bathroom as well as installing a new cabinet in the bathroom as well. He is also putting another layer of drywall/plaster in the bathroom as well.

He shows up on time and is ready to work. My project took a few visits, patch drywall, sand, and paint,. He was always on time, did what I needed and cleaned up every time. The only issue I had was he missed some spots while painting the ceiling., but as anyone who has painted a ceiling knows that is easy to do. He is a good handyman and does quality work
Description of Work: He patched some bad spots on the bathroom ceiling and painted it. He also mounted some bathroom fixtures.

Dietmar responded quickly to my call, and came the day after. He was extremely courteous, and very efficient at his work. He showed me exactly what was wrong, and got parts from Lakewood Hardware, as I requested him to do. He even showed me their receipts! He is extremely honest and always responds when we call. He even did a few extras, and mom just loves the repair!
Description of Work: He came back to fix our toilet, and all its innards had to be replaced.

He was very nice. He bought the parts he needed and I repaid him for them. He only used 55 minutes of the 3 hours I paid for and when he was leaving he told me that I could use the remaining time whenever I needed him. There woul dbe no expiration date. When I called him a few months later, he said he would call me back the following week. I never heard from him. I was disappointed. This should not reflect about what I think of his job performance, however. He did a good job with what he did do. He was also very polite and professional.
Description of Work: He made some minor repairs. A new light switch was installed, two toilets were repaired with minor parts to stop them from running. The other repair I asked him about, he thought should be done by someone more qualified.

Mr Senft was a pleasure to deal with start to finish. He was respectful, prompt to reply, easy to schedule with and always professional. He was lightening quick completing things it would take me a few hours to do in minutes and the work was perfectly and neatly done. He used about half the 3 hour time of the big deal I had purchased and has promised to return once I have another list ready.

I've known Deitmar for years now. As always, his work was outstanding. He is punctual, courteous, and very neat. By the time he is finished, it's hard to tell he was ever there. I call him all the time. Unless my project is an emergency, I will wait until he is available rather than work with somebody else.

No work was performed due to the fact that the coupon purchased through Angie's List expired prior to him having time in his schedule to do the work, so we spent $99.00 for him to not be able to work with our schedule......very disappointed
Description of Work: Did not return numerous calls/messages and when call was returned he had no time available that would fit in with our schedule to do the work.

Response from European Handyman
THE HOME OWNER CALLED VERY CLOSE TO THE EXPIRATION DATE AND I HAD A LOT OF WORK LINED UP. THIS WAS THE REASON WHY I COULD NOT PERFORM THE WORK RIGHT AWAY.WE COULD HAVE WORKED SOMETHING OUT ABOUT THE COUPON BUT THE HOME OWNER DID NOT RESPOND TO MY CALLS.I TRY VERY HARD TO WORK WITH THE HOME OWNERS SCHEDULES AND USUALLY IT WORKS OUT.

When I was ready I couldn't get him over here, yet he'd posted 'new' requests for business. I think he was hand-picking jobs he would take, even though he advertised in the 'Big Deal.'

I have used him for years. I hadn’t had him do anything in a while but I called him back and had him do some work. As usual he did a wonderful job. I can always rely on him to get the job done, and to do it right. I am happy after it's done. Other people I have hired to do work and afterwards felt the work was less than fantastic. I have never had any complaints with this guy.

lDetmar, the European Handyman, came to our house twice in the past 3 months. He always showed up on time, was very professional and has a great work ethic. His prices are fair and I would not hesitate to use him for additional work. He plaster patched an extensive area by the second floor hallway and a smaller area in the basement. I just finished painting the repaired areas and they truned out great. He also fixed a pesky leak in the kitchen faucet and repaired an electrical outlet. By far his absolute best work was finding the source of a clogged pipe on an outdoor faucet and replacing the junction. Our water pressure has never been better.
