It was great. We have used him a couple of times and we are very satisfied with his service. We would recommend him; in fact, we have recommended him to friends. We were pleased with the price. We thought it was fair and he was also flexible with what we wanted. We changed our minds at the last minute and he was very accommodating and did it. It was a fair price in both jobs. It was actually a really good price. The only problem with Chris Jackson was that he came over and did a consult on the first job we wanted to do and he worked out an estimate. It is a little hard to figure exactly what his estimates because he doesn’t do anything electronically, he writes everything down on a piece of paper and it is up to you to interpret his handwriting or write it down by yourself. That will be a suggestion for him to work on. He agreed to come on a certain day then I tried to get back to him that day, he didn’t respond and it turned out that his father had died. He was out of contact for a year I was wondering what was going, we just didn’t hear from him for a year. When he got in touch with us, he was very apologetic and he explained what had happened. He gave us a little discount on the total bill on our trouble.

"Dear [Member name removed], I am going over the years reports and realized that I had not yet responded. Thanks for taking time to write with such clarity, detail and even constructive comments on my penmanship. Mom did not send me to the Catholic school like my older brothers. We sincerely appreciate your business and look forward to future projects. Buy the way I must add a correction, I was out of touch for a week not a year. Fare thee well and merry Christmas!"

The toilet paper holder had to be replaced because it was too far away from the toilet for most people to reach especially the 3 year old whose bathroom it was installed in. He installed a bi-fold door and placed the handle on the wrong door. It had to be repaired and moved. Before he came we had discussed changing the door handles for the bedrooms and bathroom doors. He added a charge to that and then walked out because it was 5pm with none of the plates placed and had no intension of returning to finish the doors until I complained. To say the least I felt cheated and when I told him I felt cheated he went through. the roof as if I had swore at him.
after clear thinking $1000 was way too high for 3 hours work. After some angry words he did come back and finish the door handles.. I did not submit a review because frankly I was afraid of him.

It went very well.
Chris responded promptly to the message I left. He scheduled a visit to scope and estimate the job; the scheduled date/time was soon, and he came as promised. He estimated the job; the estimate was satisfactory so a date to do the work was scheduled.
The day before the planned work day Chris called to verify that everything was "go" as planned.
Chris and one helper came as scheduled, and did the job. The work was done neatly and well; they cleaned up when they were done.
The handrails work as planned, but a few days after they had been installed it was clear that they needed to be sanded, to reduce the wood grain raised by the stain. This took a reminder call. A second visit was scheduled for 3 days later. Chris came as promised, rubbed the handrails smooth with steel wool, and applied a finish coat of varnish. There was no additional charge for this.

We have used Mr. Jackson now four times (I think) on a prior house and our current house, and I have been remiss in reviewing his work. While I'll comment on the last job, my review is flavored in my appreciation of the work on all four. He provided excellent service to fix/repair/replace items in a renovation list several years ago prior to us moving into this current house. Soon after move in he provided emergency service on a leaking bathtub (leaking into our kitchen). The current house is a late 60s house that we are now just updating, and I appreciate that Mr. Jackson is learning about the bones of the house as much as I am.
We have been more than pleased in the work of Mr. Jackson, and refer our friends and associates to him. Simply put, he provides excellent work at an outstanding price with a honest, professional approach. What impresses me more than anything is his fair assessments of the work to be done. He advises when to fix, and when to not fix, and comments when the price may be prohibitive. He seems to be fair in his assessments of jobs that he would suggest I ask other professionals to assess and complete. He does not overestimate his ability to accomplish the work he is presented with.
For the latest job, we asked him to modestly update our kitchen, bathroom, and den. For the kitchen, we asked him to install new sink faucets, paint the walls, and complete some minor under-cabinet light repairs. For the the bathroom, we asked him to install new faucets to the two sinks, paint, afix new bath hardware, and assess a leaky toilet. For the den, we asked him to paint the trim and the ceiling. In all these areas, it was a general cosmetic upgrade.
As usual, prior to working on the items (a "honey do list"), he came out to our house for the estimate. We walked through the items and tasks, and in a few days received a written estimate via email. In the past, he had jotted notes, and provided an estimate for the work at the time of the walk through (handwritten one time on a scrap piece of paper). He is very astute about prioritizing work and indicating different solutions than I had anticipated. His prices for labor were very reasonable and quite competitive. He does not itemize every task, but provided a room by room estimate of the work to be performed. We scheduled the work to be performed.
During the latest job, Mr. Jackson had 3 helpers for 3 full days of work. Two seemed to be hired help or subcontracted painters (Mr. Jackson reported to me that painting was not among his personally preferred task) and the third was a general helper. Everyone was extremely attentive to cleanliness and pleasant to be around. They seemed to enjoy their work and during the work I was pleased to overhear them discussing different painting techniques and approaches to handling the work. Mr. Jackson, in particular, was very professional and thoughtful. He took pride in his work and seemed to relish in accomplishing "difficult" problems. In particular, our new Moen faucets were difficult to install into our vanities, but he worked hard to make it "right". He purchased the paint for the jobs and I purchased all the appliances.
A few weeks removed from the work, I and my family are extremely pleased regarding his work. We have no reservations on having Mr. Jackson work on our house and look forward to him working on Phase II (outdoor work) later this spring. His estimates on the work are fair, and I know I will be getting great service with a smile and gentle banter.
I am surprised about the negative review below. This review is the antithesis of my view of Mr. Jackson and his professionalism. In my view as a homeowner, I want an adequate assessment of the problem and an honest assessment of the work to be accomplished. As a homeowner, I trust Mr. Jackson's views and assessments. In addition, he (and his workers) passed the scrutiny of my discerning wife and family, who can be the toughest critics.
I doubt Mr. Jackson knows I am on Angie's List. He did not ask me to write any assessment or review.
I would be happy to provide more details of his work in the future or to anyone who inquires.

I have used Chris two times. He was very mannerly and did a good job. He repaired a couple of holes in the bathroom wall, hallway, and replaced the entire light fixture in my garage. He also replaced the track mechanism on 4 of my sliding cupboards.
He replaced all three baths toilet seats and wax ring.

Chris Jackson did arrive as scheduled for both the estimate and date of work to be done. He also did return calls and update me each time after the multiple return visits that were made. The replacement of the pull chain switch in the ceiling fan, toilet wax ring replacement and installation of AC's went well. The removal of two rusted fence poles and installation of two new poles went well except the wires of the old poles were cut and left in the fence with the sharp edges exposed - when I told the contractor they did return and remove these. The repairs of the gutter on the patio and the leak in the corner of the roof gutter were not fixed. After several (3 or 4) return visits I was updated each time that they think they now found the problem each time and the repairs were complete. Quite the opposite, the leaking roof gutter was originally only in the corner and now it is worse with a line of leaking water. During the final phone call with Chris he stated that they had done all they could on checking the roof gutter leak and he could return the $99.95 that is the normal gutter repair charge and recommended two roofers I could call. Also since the back patio gutter was still leaking his workers were now condemning the guards on the back patio and for an additional charge they could come back and remove them. When I said ok send me the check, he then said he really couldn't return the money --- they had come back several times to try to repair the leak. It is very disappointing that I agreed and paid for repair work to be performed, and instead the leak Is
now worse and creating an additional problem of a line of water dripping and freezing in the driveway and I will have the additional expense of hiring another contractor.

"Dear Member and concerned readers, King Solomon wrote,"Rebuke a wise man and he will yet be wiser". I will begin this response with the assumption that you are a wise person, after all, you did join Angie's list and choose a highly rated company with over four hundred stellar reports, which highlight faithful service since 2004, and by my reproof you will consider it, take it to heart and be the wiser. You live in a house that is approx. 100 years old. The gutters are the original and though they are not falling off the house as we sometimes have witnessed, they are nearing the end of their useful lives. Regular maintenance can prolong their life. But most people only address gutters when they become a problem. This type of gutter needs periodic repainting with a product called tinners red. Years ago it was made with lead and other toxic ingredients which protected them and provided for an appealing appearance. Your coatings have long since been gone, maintenance has been wanting and the cancer of rust has set deep within the tin. We both entered into this job with high hopes it was a minor repair and thus only charged you fifty dollars. The other ninety nine was for the cleaning of the gutters on the entire house. One would think, having driven from White oak to Squirrel hill four times, paid roofers to perform repairs each time, at no additional cost, that maybe you would see we gave it our all, even at our loss. A repair for which I spent about 150.00 and charged you only 50.00 and did so without a hassle. We helped you conclude that the problem, which we both assumed was minor, was not. In earnest and at our cost we served you to the best of our abilities and could only conclude that the problem is more complex than we thought. You then were not only unthankful that we went above and beyond the call of duty, but added insult by asking for money in return as if we sabotaged your gutters in an effort to make your life more miserable than it appears. Then you add injury by writing this negative report in an obvious effort to vilify us as some sinister two tongued thieves. Even though we tried explained to you that to solve the riddle of the leaking gutter we need to remove the soffit and fascia to get a more complete look at it. I fear this information went in one ear and out the proverbial other. I offered two roofers who would be glad to continue the process which would be at far greater expense. So we even tried to help continue the process with third party assistance but you still could not see that we were bowing out as gracefully as possible and recommending someone with a fresh perspective. The solution will probably be a relining of the entire area of gutters. This is a service that I do not offer. Therefore we suggested a few other companies we have seen as reputable. We ask you to respectfully withdraw your damming comments and realize that we did our best to serve you, and as Rodney Dangerfield said "we didn't get any respect" Despite all this we bless you and say Merry Christmas, Fare thee well!"

We were very well pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism and care shown throughout. We definitely will use them again and recommend them to friends for this kind of job.
Chris came out one evening, a day or two after we had called him, to see what needed to be done and to give us an estimate. We agreed, set a date, and everything went like clockwork after that. He was able to put a crew of six good workers on the job, so it took only two days instead of the week-long disruption that we had anticipated. I wouldn't say the price was a bargain, but we think it was quite fair for the amount and quality of the work that they did. (We were prepared to completely replace both ceilings. Chris was the one who suggested the less-costly alternative of stabilizing the remaining parts with many big-head screws. After seeing how that was done, we have no further concerns about those two ceilings.)
The workmen were all very polite and considerate. They took great care not to damage any of our possessions and they cleaned up well after the job was done. Two of the men came back on the Friday after Thanksgiving (what would normally have been a day off for them) to wrap up some final painting, so that we could start getting things back to normal that weekend instead of waiting until Monday.

EXCELLENT Job!!
I was extremely satisfied with the workmanship and the professionalism of this gentleman. He took the time to stop by on his way home from another job to review my problem. After he made his assessment, he explained in detail the method in which
he corrected the problem with the wiring and light fixture. He also provided an explanation for the future usage and care of the light fixture. I will definitely have him back again for any additional work.
Thanks Angie, I was skeptical at first, but I did my homework and read several other reviews then choose Chris Jackson Contracting and he was the ? right? choice for me.

Chris was the only one of 6 Handymen on Angies list that answered right away, the other guys did not even call back and i had a list of "handyman" things to be done (wall repair, pass-through kitchen window, new gas line routing, countertop replacement, fireplace tile, and 12 window re-sealing). He came over around 7pm and walked throughout the house with me and gave estimates for everything. His estimates were very reasonable and he gave me great advice.
I decided to do the wall and fireplace first and he was able to come out less than a week later and do this job. All I had to do was pick out the tile I wanted for the fireplace and bring it to the house.
I was weary about him being able to just patch the drywall without replacing it since the glue adhesive had done a number on the drywall. He had 2 guys come out (Tony and Nick). I was home prepping istallation of my wood floors so we were around each other for most of the day. The guys were very personable and easy to get along with, not to mention hard working. I had no problem leaving them at the house when i needed to go to the store or to a meeting. They had almost all of the wall and fireplace done in the first day (9-5pm) and then needed to come back for a final sand/coat on the wall and grouting of the tile.
The fireplace turned out perfect and the wall was almost perfect. All the stone tiles were aligned and the cuts were precise. The wall looked promising and all the holes were filled and sanded well. The corner joints were smooth and ready for painting. I say the wall was "almost" perfect because you can still see the patching circles where they worked over the adhesive, BUT this is only when you are examining the wall during the daylight hours. The wall overtop the fireplace is a little worse, but we will be putting a painting or mirror overtop anyway. More than likely the only way this may have been remedied would be with a thin skim coat overtop the entire wall surface.
He followed up with me and asked me to write a review, i told him after we painted it I would. He and his crew told me if there is anything not perfect let them know and they will fix it. This job turned out essentially perfect, so i am very happy that I chose them and would like to use his services in the future.

We were very pleased from begining to end and when it didnt look like the painting would be done before our cloth awnings would be installed, he came out on a Saturday to complete the job.
Everything looks great and it was very reasonably priced. I am very glad we chose to us him over purchasing all new materials.
It looks new!

I first contacted Chris Jackson's Contracting via "Angie's Messaging". Chris replied promptly. I received a call the next day. We scheduled an estimate shortly after. Chris arrived promptly and help me to prioritize my "To do list". He provided a reasonable estimate and we scheduled a date for repairs. Chris and his crew arrived promptly on the scheduled work date. They got to work quickly. All work was completed on the list in four hours or less. Crown molding was installed flawlessly. The garage door functions perfectly! Roof was an eyesore now it blends nicely! The base cove was an add on job that I could not complete. He agreed to do it even though he was not scheduled to for a reasonable price.
I am very satisfied with all of the work done. I cant wait to have him install my dishwasher, counter, fix a kitchen sink installed improperly and a Kitchen ventilation fan very soon.
Chris and his Crew are Awesome! I am so happy I decided to follow the previous reviews! Now some of my daily stressors are gone. I would highly recommend Chris Jackson's Contracting for all those minor headaches that the Large companies would not do.

Mr. Jackson and an associate arrived at 1:30 PM. I had purchased a number of items to be installed and placed them where they belonged. They set to work at once and completed 6 projects that I needed completed in 2 hours. They cleaned up after their work and provided me with the paperwork from the items that I had purchased so that I could keep records.
Everything was completed to my satisfaction and I would not hesitate to call Mr. Jackson again in the future when I find projects that need completed.
My only recommendation for the future would be to set a schedule for the day in question ahead of time so that I can schedule other necessary appointments for before or after.

I feel badly about canceling an estimate day of, however I am not sure I want to work with a contractor who feels it appropriate to lecture me.

Home is 114 years old and three stories. There is always something that needs attention. Chris and crew showed up when he said he would and began work on time. They kept me apprised of progress and pointed out any issues I needed to be aware of and finished when they said they would. The crew treated my home as I imagine they would treat their own. I would recommend Chris and crew. I plan to use them on an ongoing basis to keep my home in great shape.

Chris was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. He provided several additional suggestions to adequately repair our home for sale. However, he was expensive and we didn't hire him.
