Excellent. Before I called Paul, I had been recommended,(highly) at the end of December, a husband and wife team. I called (spoke to them and met to get an estimate) but after that never saw them again. I emailed them for over 2 weeks and after 6 times of excuses and no shows I was done. I should have not waited. Then I was recommended 2 other people who have businesses listed on Angies(A rating). I called both twice and left a message and after 2 days, I looked on Angies and called Honesty and Pride. By the way the other two people took a week to get back to me. Paul called me back in the evening of the day I called and came out the next day to give me an estimate. He was reasonable and he started the following week. It only took him 2 1/2 days to finish the work. I wish I had called him sooner. This was a job I wanted done in January. He did an excellent job with everything. I would recommend him and use him again

Paul was wonderful. He and his partner, Robert, responded almost immediately to my message and came not only on time but early. My door wouldn't lock, The door was readjusted from the hinges and the strike plate and they finished in 30 m minutes or less. Perfect work, professional, wonderful, and very reasonable. Will use again! Great job!

No work could be done because the company sent the wrong windows.
Description of Work: Paul came out to replace some windows on our porch. The company gave us windows that were for a new building and not a replacement window and so nothing could be done. He and his friend that was helping him were very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail about what I needed to purchase. I tried to pay him for his time and gasoline and he wouldn't take a penny. We have some work to be done at our business office and he is definitely the one we are going to ask to do that work. Very pleased with both gentlemen!

Response from Honesty & Pride
Another company got her the windows She wanted me to install them. Unfortunately they were measured wrong and could not be installed without an excessive amount of work causing the cost to install them properly to high. They are very pleasant people and I hate it when other companies try and take advantage of good people like them.

Awesome! Both gentlemen were a pleasure to work with. The work cost less than originally quoted because a change needed to made to the original plan. Honesty and Pride saw the issue and created a solution on the spot. The new solution cost less in labor so they reduced the price. They also took it upon themselves to go and purchase new door knobs and was able to key them to my existing locks. The new doors fit like a glove on a 70 year old house! Incredible. I have them signed up for the next project.
Description of Work: We had 2 exterior doors installed (garage door and basement door).

It went great, Paul and his helper arrived on time with an exact match for the siding and did a beautiful job replacing the broken pieces one of which was an end cap that required all the siding on either side being removed to replace it. I cannot express how pleased we were with Paul's work and would highly recommend and certainly use him again.
Description of Work: We needed to have some broken siding replaced that was 14 years old. It was important that it matched which we knew would be no easy task. Paul went above and beyond to find the siding for us.

After dealing with too many contractors that didn't show up, call, or I had to chase after, Honesty & Pride was a pleasure to deal with. They were prompt, always responded to call messages, and called the day prior to the work to confirm they were coming. They did a very good job, were neat, and cleaned up the work areas. The price was more than fair. I would definitely use their services again!

Paul was a pleasure to work with. He was quick to respond to my initial emails requesting a quote and came out on a Wednesday evening to assess the work and quote me a price. The repair wasn't as straightforward as I was hoping for but Paul was able to come up with a solution that worked for us. We scheduled a date for the work to be performed and he arrived on time on that date. Paul and his assistant were very friendly and professional and I was happy with the resulting work. Paul provided all the materials, including the replacement parts for the frame and paint and did not go over the quoted price. I will certainly consider Honesty and Pride again for other projects in our home.
Description of Work: Our storm door was left open during a nasty wind storm which almost ripped the door off the frame. There was damage to the top and bottom part of the right side of the frame.

Job went great. Paul did excellent work and was efficient with his time. He performed the work over two days and arrived within the time he said and even called before he arrived. I made a couple changes to the list I originally gave him when he got here and it wasn't a problem. He went right to work and kept me informed of his progress. He also made recommendations for some of the fixes and helped me pick out a new grout color since I bought one that didn't match the existing grout. Overall very happy with his work and would definitely recommend him to anyone I know and would use him again.
Description of Work: Had a list of small jobs that I needed done around the house. Hanging replacement kitchen cabinet doors, adjust angle of storm door so it could latch, installed new storm door bumper, drilled bolt lock hole so bolt lock can be used, re-grout kitchen counters and bathroom tile wall, re-caulk shower spigot and bathroom sink, installed new bathroom towel rack and toilet seat.

Paul promptly responded to my request and because I had a short timeline, he came out a couple days before to take a look at the projects in order to give me an estimate on time and cost. He estimated he would need 2 days to complete everything, some of the tasks required some problem solving and hourly work. Paul called me with a quote and we moved forward with the scheduled work for later that week. He arrived on time, every time. Upon arrival Paul would call my cell phone so I could let him in the house, so he could avoid ringing the doorbell or knocking on the door since I had two young ones still sleeping. After he completed each task he would show me the work and make sure I was happy with everything before moving on to the next task. Paul knows that after we get through our home's inspection, if anything needs to be taken care of he will be my first call.
Description of Work: As we were preparing our house for market we needed a handful of odd jobs to be done around the house. We needed a pocket door fixed, some painting done over the 2-story stairs and upstairs hallway, a cabinet door fixed and a secondary dryer vent, not in use, properly covered.

They performed a wonderful job. I can't believe the difference. They replaced the old handrail which had rotted and was hanging off it's last hinges. I asked to replace it with a wood railing and they did their best to match the railing on the other side and the railing is very solid. They also rebuilt the small retaining wall with the existing material. They took out the interlocking pavers and rebuilt from scratch. The pavers had been leaning forward and now it looks like a new wall. They also took the time tom make sure everything actually "looked" good. Overall I am 100% satisfied and wished they did more stuff. I would definitey use them again. Due to the weather the rail could not be painted at this time.

We're more than happy with the quality of the entire experience. He was professional and proactive. It was his idea to remove caulking around the sink and put new in. The result is that the whole bathroom looks like new! He cleaned up very well also. Will definitely use him again.
Description of Work: He removed old caulking in the bath and replaced it. They also removed old louvered closet doors and installed a new set which he trimmed so it would easier pass over the carpet.

Response from Honesty & Pride
I have done work for this customer on numerous occasions . As she stated I have installed windows, some minor electrical repairs install dryer vent etc. I painted one coat of paint with primer on the walls and ceiling of her her entire kitchen, hallway and the walls and ceiling leading downstairs. I painted 2-coats on all trim at no extra charge due to the discoloration of age and use. She had no complaints until I painted a small bathroom that was the last job I did. I painted the ceiling and one coat of the same paint I used on the kitchen walls on the bathroom walls. When she called me to let me know that she was not happy with the way the walls turned out I went back and painted a second coat on the walls as I did see where some of the old wall color had bled through. . I had replaced a ceiling light with a new fluorescent bulb that does cast a shadow on parts of the wall that make it look different. I always calk the corners and along the ceiling when there are plaster walls as they always crack in those areas. I may have missed the bubbled area and the missing area of plaster and for that I apologize. I see where she stated she would hire me again and am willing to do other work because she is enjoyable to work for and I always want to keep my customers satisfied even if I have to go that extra mile.

I purchased the door that I wanted. He was pushing me to get the door he wanted me to use. The style of that door was completely different than the other door on my deck. He showed up, looked at the frame that needed to be assembled and told me the door was the wrong size. It was 70 1/2" for a 72" opening. Then gave me a story about all the work that would be needed to mak it fit. In my opinion, he just wanted to use a pre framed unit and didn't want to be bothered assembling the frame. He knew from the beginning that I wanted the two doors to be the same ant that I wanted a specific look. In my opinion, if you are looking for a contractor to do more than very basic handy man type work, that he is not the one you want.

Response from Honesty & Pride
I am disappointed that I have to end the year with such a negative report (F) I tried to work with this customer through Angies List message board, several phone calls to get the job done right. He originally contacted me to let me know he wanted a patio sliding door to match the other sliding door he has in another room. I measured the exact size of the existing door that I would be replacing and the size of the other sliding door and the frame size on both are 72" wide and 80"high. He contacted me to let me know that he was going to purchase the door and I would just need to install it. I gave him a price of 550.00 labor only. I had suggested a pre hung slider the same size 72"wide including the frame. He purchased a Anderson slider from Home depot that had to be completely assembled on site. When he told me that on the phone I let him know that there would be an extra charge of 100.00 to completely assemble the doors and frame. When we got to the job we measured the pre assembled door frame and it was only 70 1/2 " wide. I immediately said it was the wrong size and that the work to install the smaller door would be extensive and cost much more. The exterior is aluminum siding that would have to be capped to take up the added space between the old door and all the trim and extension jambs would have to be changed. I did not want to get involved with that. I called him today as I read his negative review and he told me that Home Depot had an installer that said it would be no problem and an easy installation." Good luck with that" I have always tried my best to keep my customers satisfied.
