After performing demo workout, our previous contractor took our $$ and ran. Because of this, we were too spooked to hire another “con”tracor and decided to try a service with a good reputation and warranty. I can not recommend ACE more highly. Our “handyman" Juan was skilled and super knowledgable with the HUGE project he was thrown into. He was on time, efficient and just a joy to deal with! By himself, Juan cleaned up the prior demo area, properly sealed the shower, installed a new shower bench/curbs and repaired the wall…he did everything but the painting, which we took care of. What a worker! Thank you so much Juan and ACE Handyman Services. We will certainly be working with you again!

Requested a quote through Angie’s List and took a day or two of phone tag to speak about the projects. Once the info was relayed, I never heard back to schedule an estimate.

Response from ACE Handyman Services
Hi [Member Name Removed]. The estimate was sent to your landlord (Bill) with the email that you provided with explicit instructions that the estimate must be signed authorizing before work can be started. We never heard back from him with the authorization. Anytime we do work for a tenant we must have authorization from the owner of the property. Unfortunate that you leave a BAD review on something that was not in our control.

Handyman Matters is a very professional service. They are very responsive, showed up on time, did excellent work, and cleaned up after. I couldn't even tell they were there. 2 of the fans were difficult to install and Paul did it with grace. I was very impressed. I will definitely hire them again!

It didn't. Scheduled the job, but when I called the day before to ask when to expect them, I was told nothing was scheduled and they didn't offer plumbing services even though their web page lists it under local services and the person who originally was contacted said no problem when I described the work and said it would be in the morning, but didn't have a time.

Response from ACE Handyman Services
Good Morning [Member Name Removed], I feel as though you may have mixed us up with another company - everything we do is by a scheduled appointment typically 8AM or 12 noon. We also send out dispatches to the craftsman as well as the customer the day before to give the customer a friendly reminder and the craftsman a summary of the project to be completed. You would also receive a phone call from the craftsman scheduled to do the work the evening before to go over your project needs. You mentioned you had a plumbing issue, we do offer minor plumbing services such as changing out a toilet, or the inner workings of a toilet, changing out a kitchen/bath faucet etc. If your project was for something you would need a licensed plumber for then we would have referred you to someone else. Sorry to hear that you experienced some difficulty with a company but I do not believe it was with Handyman Matters.

The work was assessed quickly, and Chris began work as soon as we finished looking at everything together. He had all the tools he needed and made a quick run to Home Depot for all of the parts/supplies he needed. We'd highly recommend hiring Handyman Matters!
Description of Work: We had various small house projects from adding a cover to our baseboard heat, installing ceiling tiles, fixing a leaking pipe under our sink.

I called Handyman Matters the day the incident happened and I explained the situation. Chris came out the next day, measured the space, and installed the gates in just a few hours! Now I can keep my dog outside without having to worry. I highly recommend this company for any household needs because of their timely, well-executed service. I will definitely be using them again!
Description of Work: I contacted Handyman Matters to install two gates on my back porch. My dog was attacked by a neighborhood dog while she was tied up, so I wanted the gates to be able to safely keep her outside.

Great! Chris was on-time, tidy, quick and so helpful. I got so much done in one day! Plus, Chris found two live wires under my sink I didn't even know existed. Those wires could have caused a fire. We turned off the breaker to the wire and now that wire is safe. Chris even reinstalled some PVC pipe on the side of the house that I needed for proper water drainage. I will be contacting Handyman Matters in the future when I need additional work done. I could not be happier!

Wall hangings installed Shelves installed Check garbage disposal Reviewed what I need to touch up paint in various areas because i can do it myself if I know what I need. Discussed future projects such as additional shelving, leaky faucets, porch screening etc.

Well, the project we really wanted done, hanging new screens doors, couldn't be performed by the Handyman they sent. So the work he did, was only a part of what we asked to be done. Guess it all depends on who they send out... Tammy the office manager was very responsive and helpful. Chris

Everything went great. The gentleman was very professional and he took time to really explain what he was going to do. He treated us very nice and my mother really appreciated it. It means a lot to me that he was able to make my mother feel comfortable. I really appreciate the service. He was also honest when we overpaid and gave the money back to us. That really showed his credibility and respect.

Person they sent did a poor job installing the door than began to solicit my business directly to himself. Gave me his number. I called him to do a few more things. He did a poor job, no called no showed, and showed up for personal jobs in his work truck. He never finished doing all the work I paid him for but good riddance.
