Always a pleasure to have Walt in to make things work and look better. Prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and efficient.
Description of Work: We had Walt come for a few small items while preparing our home for sale. Not much was needed because Walt and Tammy have been taking care of things for us as necessary over the years. Walt installed a sconce, touched up paint where he had caulked and flashed windows last year (we had given him the wrong color for the original touch up), installed some hooks in the laundry room and filled numerous holes where we had removed pictures. He even washed one of our windows while he was on the ladder. As always we were pleased. Buying a new home will be less stressful knowing that Walt will be available to make sure any overlooked maintenance is addressed efficiently and well.

Walt assessed the condition of a toilet and determined it would need to be replaced (as I had expected). He and Tammy went to Home Depot and picked up a toilet (the price of the toilet is not included in the above), which was a huge help. While Walt removed the old toilet and installed the new, Tammy worked to remove old caulking and recaulk the bathtub. They took the old toilet and the box for the new toilet with them, leaving me with a renewed bathroom and no mess. Walt and Tammy are a fantastic team and I will not hestitate to hire them again. I currently am building my "Walt and Tammy List."
Description of Work: Replace toilet; recaulk bathtub.

Walt's Handyman came out. He did a quality job. I thought he was pretty expensive though. His not particularly fast, but, he was thorough. He did a good job. I probably will not use him again, because of his price.
Description of Work: He replaced molding around the outside of my window. Caulking inside and outside. He painted it.

Great. They came on time, clean up after their work and we have always been pleased.
Description of Work: We needed to take care of items on our inspection list to sell our home. This included tightening a loose stairway steel railing on our outside deck, grouting, touch up painting, etc. They have done numerous home projects for us over the years and we have always been pleased with their work. They can do so many different types of projects but do not do electrical work.

The work went 100% smoothly. If they tell you they can do something, they will do it correctly. You can trust them without hesitation, and they work well together as a team.
Description of Work: Walt and his wife did a lot of misc. fix-up work for me, such as replacing window hardware, getting all the windows to work easily, bracing up my back deck, some minor electrical work, some painting, etc. I'm writing this almost two years after the work was performed, but I can tell you they did an excellent job and were great to work with. I've moved out of state, but if I hadn't I would definitely use them again & recommend them to all my friends and neighbors.

We had several small drywall cracks that needed repair, and our pull-down attic ladder had a bad hinge. Walt and Tammy were prompt and responsive to these issues, and they also took care of a couple of additional drywall repairs without changing the estimate. The attic ladder was an unusual repair, as it involved modifying a poorly assembled lower segment, but Walt was able to correct this without issue. In addition, Tammy noticed some cracked caulking in our bathroom by the tub, which she also repaired for no additional charge. Overall, we are satisfied with the work done, and we will definitely use the service again for handyman needs.

They took their time, sanded, painted and added caulking for moisture control. They did a very thorough job. They showed up on time and worked a very long day and got the job done in one session. I wold hire them again if the need arises.
Description of Work: Walt and Tammy did a very good job of prepping and painting the trim and base paint on the front part of our house. Some of the trim around the exterior patio doors were starting to get weatehr beaten and needed some TLC.

Walt arrived promptly, having only agreed to take on the task the evening prior. He took a look at what needed to be done, and he and Tammy wrote down any materials they would need to gather. They quietly just went from task to task, completing everything we asked of them. They were careful of our landscape when working outside and came and went as they needed. At the end of the job, they wrote out a detailed receipt for the work they completed, and gave us a 10% discount. It's extremely important to us to be able to count on our contractors, and in the three different experiences we've had with Walt, he's never disappointed us, and is always willing to go above and beyond to meet our schedule requirements. We would recommend him without reservation.
Description of Work: We called Walt to address some inspection items involved in the sale of our house. They ranged from installing carbon monoxide detectors, adjusting door jams and lengthening and tacking up the dishwasher drain hose to repairing some outside beams (fill and paint), delaminated siding repair and adding drywall to a drop down attic ladder.

Walt and Tammy worked quickly, quietly, and very efficiently together. After viewing the projects and discussing my preferences, they shopped for materials, returned quickly, and worked their way through my to-do list. They cleaned up after each project and removed the trash. Walt even devised and built a protective method to prevent future problems with the garage door sensors. Not having the knowledge, talent, time, patience, tools, to maintain my home as I like it, I'm delighted to have found Walt's Handyman on Angies List.. It's reassuring to know that the next time something breaks, wears out, or just plain quits, Walt's Handyman is just a phone call away.
Description of Work: Laundry list of projects included replacing weatherstripping on doors, door lock/deadbolt replacement, replacing closet florescent lighting with globe fixture, replacing kitchen towel rack, securing toilet paper holder fixtures, replacing sliding door guide and re-aligning doors, replacing water damaged baseboard, stabilizing/securing light sensors for overhead garage door operation.

An unexpectedly difficult project made easy (for me) by a great team!
Description of Work: I wanted what seemed like a relatively easy cosmetic upgrade to the master bath and a powder room that shares a wall with it. My goal was to remove wall size mirrors (9' x 5' in the master; 5'x5' in the powder room) and to replace the '80s light bars and the gold-toned fixtures with something more up to date. Walt estimated a day for the project. He and Tammy arrived as scheduled and removed the existing light bars and the covers for the outlets exactly in time for the scheduled arrival of the mirror company. Once the mirrors were gone, it was clear that much more work than we anticipated would be required to put everything back together. The primary problem was that the mirrors had been hiding poorly patched together sheetrock. In some large areas the sheetrock was missing altogether. In addition, while there were plenty of electrical outlets most were in the wrong places. Of the three vanity lights I wanted installed, only one had the wiring in the proper place. A freshening up of the rooms turned into near half remodels of the baths. In addition to putting in a full day on the scheduled day, Walt and Tammy returned on four other days, including some time on a Saturday. The wiring was routed to places that would be functional. New walls were created from scratch and textured. The walls and ceilings were painted. The outlets, lights, new faucet and towel bars all were installed, and the mirrors were hung. And I can't say enough how much I appreciate how clean they kept the area even as they were working. Tammy went above and beyond by cleaning up after the glass company left shards behind (in the process of removal the larger of the two mirrors shattered). Walt and Tammy were great in scheduling the time to finish the project quickly. (To any of their other customers who might have had their project schedules impacted I say thank you for your patience!) Walt also was quick to give me an update bid to keep me from worrying about the unanticipated cost of the project. He gave me a very fair price for the additional work that needed to be done, with my Angie's List discount as well. I am really pleased with the quality of Walt and Tammy's work and the transformation to the two rooms. I feel they treated the rooms as though they were their own and considered all of the little things that make a big aesthetic difference--centering, creating a sense of balance, leveling everything, chosing just the right color of grout to replace the gold trim that left with the mirror. I'm busy saving my pennies for my next Walt and Tammy project.

He was on Angie's List. He is an older guy and he and his wife work together. He was polite and nice, but not particularly excellent at his craft. He is a very nice man and his wife too. They were just a couple of people who came to your house and did a medium job of putting in a new door and not sanding it very well and certainly not painting it well and not getting it to fit right in the door jamb. They meant well, but I would say that they weren't spiffy. They were pleasant but not professional. They were nice enough and they showed up. It wasn't that they didn't come up and they weren't late. They had a lot going in many other jobs. They just dropped by and did their thing and left. It surprised me. I expected because he could do all things and he probably has in his life. His wife got on the door and painted something, but not how you and I would paint it. The price was fine. In themselves as persons, they were professional.
Description of Work: Walt's Handyman bought a new door for our guest bathroom, shaved it to size because the bathroom door is smaller than most doors, fitted it into the door jamb and painted it. They also painted some woodwork for us in the main bathroom. They came out about 3 months ago.

I needed several small repairs done to the exterior of my house prior to having it painted, which Walt and his wife did beautifully. They also replaced the deck on my shed, and did a wonderful job on that as well. They were quick to respond to my initial request for a bid, accomplished the work within my time frame, did quality work, and cleaned up thoroughly when they were done. They were also quiet and courteous while doing the work. I have some interior jobs that will need to be done in the near future, and you can be sure I will call Walt for his assistance when the time comes.
Description of Work: 1. Repaired and re-screened crawl space vents 2. Repaired a hole (probably from a woodpecker) in my siding 3. Repaired and resurfaced a weathered and peeling wood door. 4. Replaced the deck on my shed, and added additional flooring supports beneath it.

I had a 2 foot square hole in my ceiling caused by a plumbing repair job. I called Walt's Handyman and Walt gave me a ball-park estimate from a verbal description. He and his wife (his assistant) came to the house on time and began work. They were very friendly and professional and worked very efficiently to complete the ceiling repair. The repair work needed to dry before repainting so we made another appointment for them to return and paint. They took paint samples with them to match the paint on the ceiling/walls Again they showed up on time and were very careful of the carpets, etc. They did a great job on the ceiling. It looks perfect! While they were painting the ceiling they made some "touch-ups" on the paint on the walls without being asked. It was a nice touch. I liked what they did so I asked them back to mount some small speakers near the ceiling in the family room and route the cables behind the walls. Walt looked at the project and figured out how to do it. To save time and money I bought parts for the job myself at the hardware store. Walt did a great job with speakers; the end result looks great and I couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: Repaired hole is ceiling, re-textured and repainted damaged area. On a sperate project and mounted speakers in family room.

Overall, it was great and I won't hesitate to recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Walt's estimate was higher than others, but his knowledge was apparent when talking with him. He made some suggestions that worked well for the repairs needed. Walt and his wife work as a team and have a well stocked truck with all the tools he needs for most any repair. They removed the old molding around the front windows and installed new vinyl molding that will better suit our climate. In addition that day, he replaced the screens and some weather stripping around the back door. On the second day he replaced two sections of fencing complete with new posts. Removing the old posts took a couple of hours before he could build the new sections. Walt and his wife worked steadily and did not waste any time. All his work looks great!
