Abe arrived on time, was professional and courteous. He completed the job in less than an hour which was advertised to cost $45.00 including service call with one hour of labor. However I was charged an additional $50.00 and was informed that the deal didn't include faucet replacement. I purchased the faucet from the home improvement store myself, which was available when he arrived. I'm disappointed that Angies list misrepresented the deal. The photo on the deal showed a sink and faucet, with no restrictions to faucet replacement. Will not use this company and doubtful if I'll use Angies list again.
Description of Work: Kitchen faucet replaced

I explained to the customer prior to doing the install that the $45 hour offer does not include any installs. Before you can purchase an offer you are directed to the offer explanation where it states that this offer does not include any installs. The customer was very pleasant, work went well. I am sorry that she misunderstood the offer. I am glad that the complaint was about price and not workmanship.

Everything went great. I had purchased one hour of handyman work from an Angie's List Deal. The work took longer than an hour but Abe completed the jobs and charged me a reasonable rate for the additional time. Abe loves to talk, so be prepared to chat with him. He also loves coffee, so he'll appreciate it if you offer him a cup o' joe.
Description of Work: Abe installed two towel bar on tiled bathroom walls and also installed an aerial dog run line in the backyard, running from the house to a tree.

Abraham is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He removed the glass slide doors of the bathroom that I have been disliked for a long time. He re-caulked the bath tub and replaced the piece of dry wall that has been damaged by the water leaked from the bath tub. The bathroom looks so nice now. He also fixed two cracks on the bath tub. He answered a lot of questions from me and fixed some other things such as the faucet in the kitchen and the smoke detector in the basement.

It could not have gone any worse. I changed my entire day's plans because after telling me that he cannot come out Monday, or Tuesday. He changed his mind. He attempted to install a kitchen ceiling fan.That never came to fruition. Instead he dropped the fan, smashing the housing, and breaking the bulb. The fan housing left several dents in the hardwood floor right in the middle of my kitchen. He told me to buy a new fan, and he would pay for it. It was a Hampton Bay with 24" fan blades. The wood flooring he said to go buy that also, and he will install it over a weekend. For a beginning I am asking for a $40.00 refund that I paid Angie's list for his service. Please advise if I have to have him repair my floor. Isn't he insured for this? I would rather have him just pay for a new fan, and pay for the flooring, and installation. I am 69 years old, and I cannot handle this stress. I am on several medications. I am not comfortable with him coming back into my home. I am very distraught. Please advise, thanks.

Response from A&W Home Repair
I called the costumer and he told me that he tried to connect a ceiling fan and capped blowing fuses and he needs me to wire it for him. When I arrived at the home I found quite a few things going on. There was a light fixture by the garage door hanging by the wires the ceiling fan was hanging on its mount with all the wires disconnected. both three way switches for the light were hanging out of the work box. The bedroom light fixture was off where he tried to hang a second ceiling fan, the outlets were not working and an extension cord was plugged in the bathroom and was operating a area heater. The home owner told me that he went on u tube and it showed him how to connect the white wires and the black wires together and after three days he could not believe how hard it would be to do it and he got tired of blowing so many fuses. I started tracing both three way switches and noticed that there was knob and tube at the workbox and romax at the ceiling box which means there was a splice somewhere , I connected them and turned them on and at that moment the disposal came on. At this point I told the home owner that there are quite a few issues going on and it would be better if I would go in to the attic and trace all the wires involved and try to make sense of all this. He then told me that there is an attic but I could not go in there because he does not have a pull-down ladder to go up there. I have ladders in my van for some reason he did not want me up there and he started telling me that everything worked fine for eight years and there is no problem up there. He wanted me to try connecting white wires with black ones and said don't worry I bought a new box of fuses, sorry that is not my idea of fixing a problem. At this point I have been there five hours as a last resort since he would not let me go in to the attic I had to do something I should have walked out. I went to try last resort to wire the fan and the worst happened the rubber grommet gave out and the fan dropped to the floor and damaged the floor. I offered to pay for the fan and repair the floor he said that was ok I later found his response and it was different than what we discussed. I feel that the home owner did not make it possible for me to solve the problem by limiting me to go in to the attic, for some reason he feels that my time on the job should not be compensated. If he did not feel that I was knowledgeable to continue he should have not agreed to let me keep working after the first hour that he paid for was over. His floor should be fixed by whoever he wishes, he should get a new ceiling fan and I should be compensated for the hours that I worked there.

Abe arrived punctually. Worked efficiently and accomplished all projects within a reasonable amount of time. Cleaned up after his work. Certainly seems to know what he is doing. The final cost included cost of drywall and weather stripping. Am already thinking ahead to more projects. Would definitely use his services again.
Description of Work: Repaired two good size holes in drywall. Installed a new shower head in one of our bathrooms. Replaced weather stripping on interior garage door. Hung a four pocket wooden wall pocket in our office/family room. Installed a hand bar in a bathroom.

Everything went fine, and I already have a mind to use him on other projects.
Description of Work: Responded immediately to effect some repairs that needed to be fixed due to vandalism. Replaced some exterior light fixtures in such a manner that they were much better than originally done, and did some work on the yard fencing. While talking with him he showed a great deal of expertise in accomplishing almost any handyman job, and at a great price.

I called Angie's List in order to obtain a Handyman that worked with roofing as I had de-icing cables to be installed on two areas of my roof. I was given A&W along with two other companies. I reviewed Angie's List for the rating for each organization and decided, based on the reviews, to call A&W. I left a detailed message of my problem and asked that a return call be given. Abraham called me later that night, apologized for the long delay in returning my call and proceed to explain to me that he had heard my message and that my installing de-icing cables was "merely placing a Band-Aid on something more serious." He continued by explaining that "there was a process that included a de-icing film that would need to be placed on the roof in order to eliminate my problem." I explained to Abraham that the leaking only occurred once (earlier this year) and this was the fix that my insurance company had suggested, what would be his suggestion? Abraham at that time indicated " well, we would need to do the de-icing film." I asked what would that entailed, and Abraham indicate that it would involve "removing the entire roof for that area (my sun porch) and redoing the roof with the de-icing film so that I would NEVER have the problem of leaking again." I told Abraham, that I did not need a new roof as my roof was only seven years old and was in excellent condition, to which he stated "it is not a good roof if you are having this problem. I have been doing this for 30 years, so I am only telling you what I know. The cables do not work most of the time and when they do work, they work minimal at best, which is not going to fix the problem." At that I told Abraham, thank you for the call; however, I am not replacing my roof and to have a great night and hung up the phone. He never gave me a quote on what it would cost to install the de-icing cables to my roof, nor did he ask if I wanted to still have the cables installed. He merely wanted to sell me a roof and because I was not interested in the purchase of a new roof, he was not interested in providing assistance.
Description of Work: Nothing, but was asked to install de-icing cables to my roof.

We are having new quartz kitchen tops installed and a pot filler and instant hot also. The installer would not install the water line for the pot filler or electrical line for the insta hot. Enter Abraham. Abraham was meticulous in his approach; asked detailed questions before beginning and explained the process throughout. Abraham's price was more than fair and his workmanship excellent. I highly recommend him and will utilize his services again in the future. There are always odds and ends which must be attended to in any home. I have found my handyman!

A pleasure to work with Abe. Arrived at promised time. Both fans were installed in allotted time. Good workmanship. Abe was very knowledgeable in what needed to be done. Had all required tools with him so there were no delays. Job required crawling up in attic space for attachments & connections. Very tight area. All connections were made. Fans look and work great. Abe also pointed out other issues within the house that needed to be addressed and corrected. Offered his assistance in taking care of problems. Very customer friendly personality.

Abe responded very quickly to repair our roof leak. He was very helpful in explaining what caused the leak and in solving the problem. We appreciated his honest approach because we thought the repair would cost us a lot of money. We called Abe back a few weeks later to do some more work. He completed all work efficiently, at a reasonable price, and to our great satisfaction. He was pleasant to work with too; he has a great sense of humor.

Abe showed up on time and prepared for the job. Over a several day period he completed all of the requested work with minimal trips to purchase supplies. Abe also took my budget into consideration when recommending service work, but always made sure that the work done was completed properly, and passable for inspection.
Description of Work: Abe repaired multiple plumbing and electrical violations before my home inspection. All of the repairs passed the city inspection with flying colors. Abe also repaired several support beams, correcting a sagging front porch floor. Abe also removed a second floor balcony door, added insulation, re-sided the exterior, and dry-walled the interior.
