Response from PAUL ON CALL
My relocation to Southern Rhode Island on a permanent basis has made it difficult to service small jobs in the Boston MetroWest area. While this, along with advancing age, has forced me to disappoint many existing and prospective clients, no others have felt that this justified a grade of "C." Please look at my 12-year record of satisfying hundreds of others and judge me accordingly.

Description of Work: Paul responded to my emails. I had a screen door leading unto my Balcony which had a tear in it and also the door itself was somewhat off track. Paul came and replaced the torn screen and also adjusted the door itself so that it moved as it should have all along. I found Paul to be really a great guy. Did the work that I needed to be done. I would definitely use Paul Chaset again and would definitely refer him to others. A Job Well Done.!!!!!!!

Description of Work: Paul spent most of the day at my house doing miscellaneous things such as hanging shelves, hanging artwork, adjusting toilets hardware, retrofitting dumbwaiter box, etc. His work was excellent and he was very nice. He communicated very efficiently via email prior to arriving. Although he is a bit expensive, I would use again and would recommend.

Description of Work: We were looking for someone to re-grout a tub and a tiled shower. Both were in pretty bad shape. Paul came quickly to give us an estimate, and was able to come and do the job 5 days earlier than expected, which was great. He came right on time, worked hard by himself for about 6 hours, and both bathrooms look 100% better than before.

Response from PAUL ON CALL
I regret that this member was unhappy that I had to decline to do her work. Most of my customers really appreciate that I will not take on work for which I am unlicensed, unqualified, or unable to perform with confidence of an excellent result. Sometimes consumers do not fully understand the limitations imposed by licensing requirements or the Building Code . In many of these situations I am able refer them to other trades people or suppliers who are more appropriate or more economical, and those referrals are generally much appreciated. Angie's List Members can get a sense for what work I do on my website, and for the quality of my service from the extensive reviews here on Angie's List going back 10 years! I am always willing to discuss your needs and if I may be able to help you, at no charge. If your project is beyond my scope, I will be glad to let you know that and why.

Described above.
Description of Work: We had a bunch of items (broken light in socket which we could not remove, screen frame repair, etc.) for which we needed a handyman. Paul came very quickly, assessed what was needed, returned as promised later the same week, and repaired everything, He is professional, responsible, and competent. We will definitely use him again.

His service was excellent.
Description of Work: We have used Paul whenever we have a problem in the last 3 years. He is always prompt, efficient, completely reliable and reasonably priced. This time he fixed 2 doors and 2 closets and came back later to power wash the deck. He also gave us a crank (no charge) for a window that I had not been able to open for 7 years. We will continue to call Paul when we have a problem.

Fabulous. I am so pleased.
Description of Work: We were in a jam because we needed a dryer hose replaced and our siding contractors put a small plate and it was screwed in and hard to repair hose. Call Paul. He came right away and did a wonderful job. We then had another problem. We had new carpets installed on our porch and couldn't open the garage door into the porch. Again, Paul came and fixed the door right away. It was perfect and nothing to clean up afterwards. He took care of everything. As far we are concerned he is OUR HANDYMAN and we were lucky to find him.

PAUL WAS SIMPLY TERRIFIC, AND WE CAN'T PRAISE ALL ASPECTS OF WORKING WITH HIM HIGHLY ENOUGH. THAT SHOULD BE ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID, BUT TO GILD THE LILY, HE IS VERY RESPONSIVE, RELIABLE, TIMELY AND CONSIDERATE IN HIS DEALINGS WITH US; HE IS VERY COMPETENT AND CAREFUL IN HIS WORK; HE HAS BEEN CREATIVE IN ANALYZING NONSTANDARD SITUATIONS AND DEVISING SENSIBLE SOLUTIONS; HE LOOKS FOR A REASONABLE BALANCE BETWEEN COST AND PERFECTION; HE IS VERY ARTICULATE; AND HE HAS DECLINED SEVERAL PROJECTS THAT WERE BEYOND HIS COMFORT ZONE. WE INTEND TO USE HIM FOR EVERYTHING HE IS WILLING TO HANDLE.
Description of Work: IN THREE SEPARATE VISITS, PAUL CHASET REPLACED LATTICEWORK AND FRAMING AROUND EXTENSIVE PORCH, REPAIRED FLOORING, REHUNG POCKET DOORS, AND DID SEVERAL OTHER SMALL PROJECTS, INCLUDING RESEARCHING SOME SPECIAL NEEDS ELECTRONIC SOLUTIONS.

PAUL RESPONDED PROMPTLY, AND THEN CHANGED HIS SCHEDULE TO COME IN QUICKLY WHEN INFORMED IT WAS A MEDICAL ISSUE. TASK TURNED OUT TO BE MUCH MORE DIFFICULT THAN ANTICIPATED, AS STUDS COULD NOT BE FOUND BEHIND TILE, AND PAUL HAD TO FIND THEM FROM NEXT ROOM, TAKE MEASUREMENTS, AND APPLY MEASUREMENTS TO BATH. PAUL DID A VERY PROFESSIONAL JOB, CLEANED UP AFTERWARDS, LEFT THE AREA NEAT AND CLEAN, AND CHARGED A VERY FAIR RATE FOR THE JOB. WE RECOMMEND PAUL HIGHLY.

PAUL WAS ABLE TO DO THIS WORK ON VERY SHORT NOTICE, HE ADDED HOURS (WORKING THE WEEKEND!) TO HIS OWN WEEK TO COMPLETE THE JOB BEFORE THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY. HE CALLED TO TELL ME HE WAS ON HIS WAY AND WAS RUNNING ABOUT 15 MINUTES LATE. HE WAS POLITE, DID EXCELLENT WORK AND CHARGED LESS THAN HIS ESTIMATE BECAUSE IT TOOK LESS TIME. ALSO, WHEN PAUL WAS COMING OVER TO DO THE ESTIMATE, 2 WEEKS BEFORE, HE ARRIVED ON TIME DESPITE AN UNEXPECTED SNOW STORM ON SATURDAY MORNING. WHAT PLEASED ME THE MOST WAS THAT HE WOULD DO SUCH SMALL JOBS! HE ANSWERED MY INITIAL EMAIL IMMEDIATELY AND WITH ENTHUSIASM. I AM SURE I WILL BE HIRING HIM AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
