Lousy overall. Called the owner, make contact, scheduled appointment at my house. The man showed, looked at proposed job, and provided estimate of materials and cost, and estimated a straight-forward completion of job. We agreed. He left the work site to procure materials and prep for the installation task for outside wood siding repair. Never heard from him again--except when I called about seven or eight months later. He was tied up with a busy schedule, and said he would contact me. Never heard from him again.
Description of Work: No services performed. Called Walt late in 2010. We arranged a convenient time for him to review work on-site; he was punctual. Walt gave me a very acceptable estimate of cost and work that needed to be done. It was too late in the season before snow and ice for Walt to schedule work in late 2010 for outside wood siding work. In summer 2011, I contacted him again about my house repair -- a fairly small job. Walt said he was very busy at that moment and would contact me shortly for undertaking the job. As of this time in August 2012, no further contact from Walt.

He was really good but he lives 45 minutes away so it is a problem for him to get out to me. He went out of his way to help. He is booked up for 6-8 weeks so his availability is not that great. He came right out to patch the ceiling and he got it done. It was reasonable. It was an emergency call and he drove 45 minutes so I can't really complain. His availability wasn't that great. He was very punctual on the job he did for me.
Description of Work: I used Walt's Handyman Services to overlay some ceilings and fix a gutter and fascia boards on the outside of the house. He is also giving me an estimate to put sheetrock up on one wall in my garage and partially taking out a fence for me.

I had developed a "to do" list of several small replacements and repairs plus had purchased new sidelights for the bathroom mirror after old ones were broken. Walt had done several small plumbing and electrical jobs for me before, including installing a new water heater, and I liked his careful, conscientious work. His ability and willingness to do a variety of small tasks neatly and promptly put him at the top of my handyman list.
Description of Work: Installed: new combo electrical switch/outlet in basement; new exterior water faucet; pair of sconce lights; door stop; and undersink water filter replacements. First 2 items he also supplied; I provided the rest.

Walt has been working for us for over 8 years. He has done carpentry, electrical, locks, plumbing and general handyman jobs. His work is always first rate. He is very efficient in his work. He charges by the hour and I have never felt that he took too long to complete a job. He can fix anything and is very professional and knowledgable.

We were very pleased.
Description of Work: He removed a natural gas wall heater and paneling from our family room and replaced some of the dry wall. He then put up new trim and painted everyting, installed new doors in my bedroom and changed my outlets from beige to white. His work is impecable and his prices are reasonable. I would recommend him to all my friends and will have him do more work for me. He cleans up before he leaves every day and makes the room liveable.

Read the above outline of problems. It didn't go very well.
Description of Work: I called this service and made an estimated appointment time sometime ifor the morning of Saturday, February 4th, 2012. He didn't show and didn't call. I called him again Monday or Tuesday of the following week and at that time he told me he lost my telephone number, even though my number should have showed up on his incoming calls on his cell, and he was happy I called back. We made another appointment for the following Saturday, February 11th at 9:00 a.m. He showed up late, said he lost my phone number and my address, had my name and called the number that was in his cell this time, unfortunately it was my office number, and he said he was driving up on down the road trying to find my house. We discussed the jobs I needed done and he said he was very busy and would get me a quote next week. I gave him my business card with my email address that he could use. It is now February 27th and I still haven't heard from Walt. I am very dissapointed with the quality of professionalism in returning calls, maintaining good appointment records and delivering the promise of services (a quote). If the job was too small or too much he should have stated that at the time and I could have called someone else. It has now almost been a month and I am no closer to getting my project completed.

Response from Walt's Handyman Services
First of all, I'd like to point out that I get about 25 calls a day, determining which of those numbers was the correct one would be impossible. Also, I believe your dates are wrong. We met on the 18th of February, and you informed me that you would be out of town until the beginning of this week. It is only Tuesday. I would have been in touch within the next day or two. Emailing an estimate was never discussed, because that is something that I do not do. All of my estimates are submitted in writing, because they need an original signature. I'm sorry if you are not happy, I just wish I had known you expected your estimate when you returned home.

Once he arrived and gave me an estimate I decided to go with him as he was local and had some good Angie's list comments. He also had a super service award. He completed the work and did a nice job although he was distracted and disorganized. Afterward I asked him to give me a quote on doing some additional work in putting in a new hot water tank, adding some wood trim in our bathroom, and replacing some shut off valves in our basement. I am still waiting for that quote in January, 2012. I also got him a job with my firend installing a new gas line to his new gas grill. I was there when he visited my friend to start the job. He said he needed to get some more parts and would return the following Tuesday. He never went back to complete the job. I will never use him again and highly recommend to all Angie's list users not to use him.
Description of Work: I called Walt to replace some rotted wood around my garage. Walt came over after I called him back a second time as he lost my contact information.

Response from Walt's Handyman Services
For starters please allow me to apologize for any grief or inconvenience I may have caused youand your friend. I am a one man show and I unfortunately do forget and/or lose things from time to time. If this is what you mean by disorganized, then yes I am. And you say that I was distracted? I do work for some different property managers and have to deal with alot of apartment maintenance and Tenant issues. Therefore, yes, I may have been somewhat distracted. I am human, not a machine and can't always be focused solely on one project, try as I might. I do thank you for your honest report and I will use this valuable information to my benefit in the future of my business. Thanks for the opportunity you have given me. Walt Hutzell

I am out of state so hopefully he will be able to get the work done in a timely manner so as to not inconvenience my tenants. I have faith that he will be able to handle it because it is a big project. He went out pretty quickly to evaluate the damage when the tub was leaking. He temporarily fixed it because the tiles were loose. I met with him about a month ago and he was very pleasant and he seemed competent. I will know more after the work has been completed.
Description of Work: Walt's Handyman Services came to fix a leaking tub temporarily a month ago. He is coming next week to replace the tub and shower. He is also going to put in a storm door and an inside door. He is going to change the locks.
