The project went great. Tony was able to make room in his schedule to come out the next day. He showed up when he said he was going to. He listened to what we needed and did excellent work. It was a tricky job and he planned it well and executed the plan without a hitch. We will use him again for any of our handyman needs.

Tony was very responsive when he understood that we couldn't lock the front door. He rearranged his schedule to come out this morning. He is very feiwndly and fixed the problem expertly.
Description of Work: Front door was sagging and dead bolt wouldn't lock. We couldn't lock the front door and had an intruder yesterday. I called Tony and he rearranged his schedule to come and fix the problem this morning. He understood that being unsafe made this job a priority. He replaced all the stripped screw, replaced with substantially longer screws that screwed into the 2x4, not the wood strip around the frame.

When the symptoms of water damaged appeared, ALF accurately diagnosed the problem and presented options for repairing. I ultimately decided to remodel the bathroom. The ALF estimated cost of labor and materials for the master bathroom remodel was very close to what I had estimated. And the total cost came in very close to those estimates. I highly recommend talking to ALF Solutions when considering repairs, maintenance and remodeling. Tony Freegard is reliable, fair, knowledgeable, flexible, does great work and meets his commitments.
Description of Work: Over a two year period - Replaced bathroom exhaust fans. Replaced 65' fencing and two gates. Rehabilitated hot tub enclosure. Replaced water-damaged outdoor siding and flashing; siding needed to be ripped down to match existing siding width. Replaced two exterior sides of the dual shower that had water damage to the interior walls, tile, studs, insulation, shower pan and exterior siding. Remodeled the bathroom which included tiling the shower walls and the entire bathroom floor, installing low voltage heat in the floor, installing a new vanity and composite counter top. Resealed a skylight, removed overhead kitchen cabinets, installed overhead recessed lighting fixtures, performed maintenance in the downstairs bathroom and installed backsplash tile in the kitchen. The approximate cost of service include building materials for the siding and bathroom wall restoration. I bought the tile, fixtures, vanity and countertop.

It went great. I called him in the morning when I realized that there was a leak and I wasn't able to fix it myself. He came over in the afternoon, found the problem. Replaced the hoses and fixed the leak.

The deck is large and elevated. It had developed sagging problems. Tony, having an engineering background, solved the serious issues. We were impressed! The July work dealt with expansion and contraction of some of the wood and plastic composite planks, installed by a fence and deck contractor some years prior.
Description of Work: Tony fine-tuned support for several planks of our composite deck.

Description of Work: My neighbor uses Tony a lot., so I had him refinish my cedar deck. Good job, reasonable price and shared info. I will use him again to refinish my deck, and any other work he can do. He was very honest in telling my what work he was not licensed to do and referred me to other Angie's List providers to get the work done. Yeah, he can be quirky, but I like that.

He was friendly, professional, and neat in his work. He's a handyman, so plumbing is allegedly out of his league, but I think he did a wonderful job. I am delighted to have found him. I intend to hire him for other handyman jobs in the future.
Description of Work: I got in over my head on a home plumbing project: bathroom drain was slow, I took out the trap, found all connections rusted and couldn't reach the clog with a snake. A friend referred me to ALF, and Tony came over, took things apart, snaked out the pipe, put in new pipes and connections, and cleaned up.

It is nearly impossible to look at any part of our home and property without seeing something that Tony and Rachelle have done to help us achieve the vision we dreamed of when we moved into our 1978 ranch style home. They are professional, punctual, and responsible, but at the same time friendly and easy-going. We always feel like they are truly partners in whatever project, large or small, they undertake for us. Considering the wide variety of things they have done for us, it is no exaggeration to state that virtually every job and service has been provided with the utmost attention to detail. We have received many compliments on the improvements to our home and yard from our neighbors over the years, and a great deal of that is directly due to the folks at ALF Solutions. Although everything they do is superb, the larger jobs (bathroom remodel; building stairs/patio in backyard; expansion of attic storage space; re-siding the front of the house) are where they really shine. We would not hesitate to recommend ALF Solutions for virtually any project. I can't imagine our home today without the good work they have done for us.
Description of Work: Tony and Rachelle have, over the last few years: completely prepped and re-seeded our front yard; built paver walls and planters in the front yard; installed a french drain; built beautiful paver stairs and patio from the lower to upper level of the back yard; moved and installed new exterior faucets; removed and replaced the siding on the front of the house; completely rebuilt our front porch; removed several small trees; repaired a gate in our fence; finished building our shed, including pouring a concrete ramp; installed a system of custom made adjustable shelves in the garage; installed a new ladder to access the storage area above the garage; built extensive storage shelves above the garage; chose and installed a new water heater; adjusted kitchen cabinets to accommodate a microwave hood, new range, and new refrigerator; installed microwave hood, new range, dishwasher; sink and faucet; installed new faucets in bathrooms and cleaned all drains; installed curtain rods for new window treatments; painted living and dining rooms and hallway; and pressure washed mossy areas of the roof. At my mother's house: installed new bathtub/shower; built new closet in guest bedroom; repaired deck. We are first time homeowners, and they have also provided endless amounts of professional advice that has proved invaluable to us.
