Checklist Handyman Services

Checklist Handyman Services did a great job renovating our 35-year-old house's ugly bathroom in September of 2018. The original owner never renovated anything since 1984 and we have been waiting to update the largest bathroom for years. I found Jose's card at a YMCA and gave him a call. I found out it was easier to communicate with them via email or Facebook because he is really busy. His estimate was very fair and competitive. We finally got down to work and the project changed each day because this old house has some hidden problems. I knew that the cost may increase because of the unpredictable plumbing issues I was sure would arise. Jose was very flexible with changes and responded kindly to my questions and concerns. The final cost was reasonable and I think a great value. He is very personable and we were able to work together to sort out the hurdles. As the handywoman of our family, I appreciate any contractor who treats my concerns with respect. We ended up with a lovely bathroom with some really cool features that made our whole family happy. I have posted before during and after photos of our bathroom renovation. It has been a year since Jose renovated our bathroom and it is going strong. I need to replace the caulk around the tub, but nothing has failed, chipped or warped. I definitely would suggest Checklist Handyman Services for your renovation project especially if you need some creative solutions. He seems dedicated to making sure the customer's problems are solved.

I did receive a call back the next day to arrange a time for the estimate. I re-arranged my work schedule to accommodate the appointment, but the contractor never showed, and never called to say they would not be there. I waited a couple of days afterwards in case I would receive an explanation, but that hasn't happened. I hate writing bad reviews but in this case I feel it is warranted. I will update this if needed.

Initially, Jose wasn't able to install in the time frame I needed, but when I expressed my willingness to be put on his waiting list, as well as an install at any time, he suggested a date. He followed through on time (within 5 days!), with a great attitude, and was extremely gracious and courteous. He finished the job and left without payment because I wasn't home. When I got home and checked his work, I noticed that the lock on the handle didn't turn. I immediately contacted him via text, and he was back on my front porch within 45 mins!! wow! what service! It was a minor glitch, quickly fixed, and off he went!! I would HIGHLY recommend Jose for ANY handyman job! (oh, by the way, he told me that because he's installed many a screen door, he always replaces the manufacturer's screws with much longer ones so they are better secured!! wow, again!!) So, please hire Jose for any Handyman job around the house, he won't disappoint!!

Simply outstanding, a breath of fresh air! Jose and his crew are true professionals. I sent an email to ask for an estimate to replace several floodlights that are high (20+) feet on my house. Jose came by the next day, replaced the bulbs, and even offered to replace other bulbs on the house for no additional charge. He and his crew were extremely professional and courteous to my wife and he followed up to point out that one of the fixtures was going bad. When it finally did (he was right!) we called him back to replace it. Again, he showed up within a day or two (as promised), he replaced the fixture and bulbs, and we weren't even home. You can't go wrong. He communicates quickly, does the work promptly, is professional, friendly, courteous, and his prices are reasonable. I'd be happy with just some of those qualities in a contractor, but Jose exemplifies them all!

Communicating with Jose was a breeze. He was easy to get in touch with and promptly returned calls. For the estimate he showed up on time and was very professional. The estimate provided was for the improvements we wanted - he didn't try to upsell us. He listened to our concerns and offered specific, affordable solutions. After reviewing his estimate (and others) we decided to go with him. When scheduling a time for the work he was very flexible and worked around our busy schedule. Due to weather, we did have to reschedule our initial time, but he handled the situation extremely well and found another time that was convenient for us. On the day the work was performed he showed up promptly. Jose and his assistant worked quickly and professionally, completing the work in half a day (earlier than his estimate of one day). The work he did was excellent and exactly what we had requested. Our deck is now more stable and looks great with the addition of the new railing. After the job was done, he cleaned up the yard completely. In terms of pricing, the actual amount was exactly the same as the estimate. Overall, Checklist Handyman Services is an example of craftsmanship, skill, and integrity in business. We would highly recommend them.
