After putting me off for a week, Jim finally came to my house. But then delayed doing the work for another few days. Finally he ended up not returning any of my calls or messages. I would not waste your time with Jim. He plays games.
Description of Work: small home repair

He called me with an estimate, but then he was suppose to come one day about a month ago. He said he had to order a part and that he was going to call me in two weeks, but he never did. I have not heard from him. I think he was just putting me off because he never followed through. The fact that he never got back to me speaks volumes. I think the price of the estimate was reasonable.
Description of Work: He called about an estimate for a back-splash grout and back-splash of my sink. He also quoted on a jimmy on my door that had a gap where air was coming in.

Hi [Member Name Removed], I just started up with Angie's List and I notice your review. I hope all is well with you and I am not sure where the confusion is . I have contacted you back in September regarding the quote for your shed. I am not sure where we left off, weather the cost was to high. Please feel free to contact me to discuss future project or if you like we could revisit this estimate. Thank you and Happy New year.

It went great. Found some glitches in my electric when he was up there which held up the process by a couple of weeks until he could reschedule.
Description of Work: Removed the ridge vent on the house, replaced the shingles, installed a fan on the roof and humidistat in the attic to prevent mold.
