Response from Ansten Handyman Services
I am very sorry for this member’s bad experience with Ansten Handyman Services. It is my intention to return any and all messages within one to two business days after receiving the message. I have however had two instances in the last few weeks of not getting messages that members have left for me. I believe this to be a technical issue that to my knowledge has been fixed. In those two instances that I know about, the members contacted me a second time and I was able to talk with them about their project needs. I now understand there could be more and I would like to personally apologize to this member and any others that may have contacted me and not received a response.

He was very personable, did what exactly was asked and he did it well.We had a heck of time getting together but I think it was our fault much or more than his. I mean just at arranging we had very small jobs as he was on a big job and when he could come we weren't available and we had all kinds of issues, the hospital issues and all kinds of things got in the way. So from our first contact it was a while before he actually completed his part, It wasn't his fault so I wouldn't blame him.
Description of Work: Tony Demuzio, the owner of Ansten Handyman Services re-attached our mantel that had come away from the wall, put new wood down on the floor like between the tile and the kitchen floor which is the little strip that had been totally worn down by our grand children riding little bikes and things around. He replaced those; fixed a board that had come out kind of our the roof of my deck over a hot tub and I think there was something else but I can't recall.

He was very punctually, did not goof around with me on timeline and showed up and schedule with great accuracy. I have tried two other handymen in the past and they either not showed up or jerked me around. I would DEFINITELY recommend Anthony if in need of some work done. While I cannot vouch for his work quality outside of the work I had done, he did seem very knowledgeable.

Excellent. This is the second job they have done for us and we would not hesitate to call them again. He showed up on schedule, quickly prepared the site, mixed and poured the concrete, and finished the surface. He returned two days later to removed the forms. It could not have gone better.

Anthony was wonderful to work with. He arrived on time, accessed the damage, went to the store and bought the necessary supplies to make the repairs, and did a great job. I no longer have a leaky inside and outside faucet. He went above and beyond by adding j channel and trim to the outside faucet so it looks finished. Highly recommend him and will definitely have him back to work on my "honey do" list.

Overall, I thought Tony did a great job. The new wood work looks great and the job was done as expected. The base boards, door trim and crown molding all look fantastic. The prices were in line with others but we just felt more comfortable with Tony.
Description of Work: We got an estimate and work completed by Ansten (Tony). The work included painting and installing new baseboards / door trim along with crown molding in our dinner.

Tony is my go-to guy. I call him whenever I need anything done around the house. The area of my house that he needed to reach is so high up that he has to rent a ladder to reach it. Those darn birds! The process requires at least two days, because the wood filler has to dry at least 24 hours before it can be smoothed and painted. Tony went out of his way to accommodate my need to get it done before it was supposed to rain on the third day, and even came back late in the evening before the sun went down to finish the job. He does such a good job that it blends right in with the rest of the wood. And he froze his hands in filthy pine needles to get my gutter to stop overflowing too! He is a hard worker and a great person! He is the only guy I call!! Thanks, Tony!!!
Description of Work: Tony cleaned frozen pine needles out of my gutters and patched and painted my wood siding where birds had pecked holes in it.

The price for the painting job was fair and it was a good price. He did a really nice job and it was definitely professionally done. It was a nice job. He prepared the walls first, sanded everything and then painted. He put two coats on everything. It still looks really nice. We haven’t planned to have it redone since then. He was very conscious of making sure that all the lines were good. He always asked for feedback. He did that with the flooring too. He asked me if that was what I wanted. He also cleaned up very nicely every day when he finished. I hired him again to do the flooring. He has done other things for me too. I don’t remember the price, but I remember being happy with it. He used the right kind of paint which you can wash off if there are finger marks. So, it looks really good. I liked the colors I chose.
Description of Work: Ansten Handyman Services did some flooring for me about a year and a half ago. The handyman also did a lot of painting inside before the flooring and he painted several rooms. The painting was done sometime in 2008. He painted the kitchen, family room, dining room and living room.

The job went horribly. He didn't put anything down when he was performing work causing my carpet to get really dirty from him walking on it...I should have known I was in for a ride when he didn't have enough professionalism to put something down on the floors to protect carpet from the mud on his shoes. He was always very responsive, but, he installed the floor wrong and we had to have a new contractor come in and replace it again. (Tiles were breaking within days of his installation.) He refunded us our money, after we fought him for it. It was one of the most stressful encounters I've had and we ended up being completely without a kitchen for 6 weeks rather than 2 (that was tough). Don't ever let Tony do any major work in your house. Even if he tells you he has plenty of experience. He's okay with the small stuff, but, call someone else for the larger projects.
Description of Work: Tore out existing ceramic tile and replaced with Travertine Tile.

Response from Ansten Handyman Services
I appreciate the opportunity to respond to the client’s complaint. I pride myself on the quality of my work and good client relationships, and I certainly made every effort to resolve this issue in a fair and timely manner. The following is a timeline of events, and the steps I have taken to resolve this issue. From April 19 to April 22, 2011 I installed a tile floor in the client’s kitchen. On April 23 the client called to express dissatisfaction with the work performed and asked me not to return. I offered to correct the errors, but the client declined. On April 26 the client called to request a refund of $1,300 ($400 deposit + $900 in materials she had purchased) via a cashier’s check by May 2. She stated she would not contact Angie’s List or the BBB if she received the check by May 2. The following day, on April 27, I called the client to discuss the issue. At this time I acknowledged that I was at fault for the unsatisfactory work, and I apologized profusely. I always try to perform the work as if it is in my own home, and I feel horribly that this work was not satisfactory. I stated that I would be contacting my insurance company regarding the refund. The client was satisfied with this, and stated it would be 5-6 weeks before she would have someone else redo the floor. On April 28 I contacted my insurance company and initiated the claims process. On April 29 the client called and stated that she did not want to wait to be paid by the insurance company and wanted the refund by the following week. I calmly explained that I was still awaiting a response from the insurance rep and would contact my broker again to try to speed up the process. Later that evening the client sent me an e-mail stating she had a contractor beginning work on the floor on May 9 and would need the $1,300 before then. On May 1, I replied to her e-mail and stated that I appreciated the update on her timeline and that I would work diligently to ensure the insurance company met this deadline. Also, on May 1, I received notification that the client had posted her negative report on Angie’s List. In the report the client mentioned there was dust in other rooms. With the scope of work that was performed, I do not dispute that there could have been some dust in areas adjacent to the kitchen. But I do not agree with the severity by which the client now claims. The report was the first I had heard of this complaint – the client had never mentioned this prior. One thing I make sure to do on all jobs is to thoroughly clean up after myself when the work is completed. By asking me not to return, the client did not give me the opportunity to do this. On May 2, I called my insurance agent to check on the status of the claim, and he then stated he would call the client to inform her that the claim process had been started. On May 3 I received a call from the insurance claims rep. I discussed the issue in detail with the claims rep, and I decided I would issue the refund check myself. Later that same day I sent an e-mail to the client stating I would be issuing the check myself, and I requested a copy of the receipt for the materials purchased. I stated I would issue the check as soon as I received the receipt. In the client's response, she requested an additional $350 for the cleaning of carpets and furniture. I did not feel it necessary to pay the additional $350 for cleaning of the carpet and furniture for the following reasons: (1) There was not nearly enough dust to warrant a professional cleaning. It was the client’s choice to have a professional cleaning done. (2) By asking me not to return, the client did not give me the opportunity to clean up (which would have required a simple dusting and vacuuming). (3) I am uncomfortable with the validity of the request, because it was never mentioned to me by the client as being an issue. It was only later added on to her request on Angie’s List on May 2. My main goal throughout this entire issue has been to resolve this quickly and fairly. On May 7th, after receiving copies of receipts for materials, I issued a cashier's check in the amount of $1,439.62 for the refund of the deposit and the cost of materials lost; and sent it out priority mail. As far as I was concearned, and received notice from Angie's List, the client was satisfied with the resolution and nothing more was to be done. Now, 2 months later, I received a new complaint from the same client about the same issue. I am not sure why, but I was under the understanding the client was satisfied with the outcome. If there is anything more I can do to remedy the situation, I will gladly do it. But I can not go back in time and change what has already happened. It is apparent to me, this client is trying to maliciously hurt my reputation; which I do not appreciate. I have done everything in my power to make sure this issue has been resolved in a fair and timely manner. I have been in contact with my Angie's List rep, and have been told I have resolved this issue to the sattisfaction of the client and Angie's List.

Tony was very professional. He finished each job and did them well. He had good communication, letting us know what he was working on and when he would be back to do more work. We ran into a few problems installing the French door, and instead of letting us figure out what to do for ourselves, he called a miller and had a custom piece made for us, after approving the extra cost. The French doors look great, he replaced some rotting exterior trim with cedar, caulked it, and primed it. He also drilled a hole for a new deadbolt on the outside door and changed the locks. We will be calling Tony in the future and will consider him out 'go to' guy for any home improvement project that we need done!
