I called this company and left a message. After about 2 weeks, he finally called back and apologized for not getting back to me sooner and that he's been really busy as he's running 6-8 weeks out. I told him the two jobs that I had and he said that someone would contact me to schedule an estimate. That was over a week and-a-half ago. I have yet to hear anything from this company. This is not a way to promote a business.

We apologize we are so far behind on handyman services and any inconvenience that has caused. We have no intention of turning away new work, but must be faithful with those we are presently serving. After school starts it will begin slowing down and will allow us to be much more timely

He showed up on the day promised and cleaned the gutters. I would have liked for him to let me know he was here, and finished the job. I did not know it was complete until I actually looked at the gutters. But it was done well.

The first task was installing the ceiling fan. Originaly I had tried to do the job myself, so the job of cutting a hole in the ceiling was already done. I had misplaced the switch that came with the fan and did'nt relieze that that it required a four wire electrical cord, He quickly recognized the problem and solved it. No only that, but did'nt charge me extra for either the wire or switch inwhich he purchased!! He did a great job fixing the back door which would'nt close. He sanded the high spots and reseated the support screws and now it works fine.
Description of Work: Installed a whole house fan, fixed exterior door which was'nt closing properly and did attempted to do triim work in kitchen which was not completed due to no fault of his own

I never got an email or call back from the individual. It has now been over a month.
Description of Work: Met with representative of the company to talk about getting a quote for a remodel job, he took measurements and I wrote out my email address for him to respond to. He said that he would have a quote soon, I know I called him at least once within a week and he said he would have it for me the next day.

The owner of The Improvement Co,, Dan, replyed quickly to our request for an estimate to replace our cracked vinyl trim. Dan came out within a few days of contacting me, was very professional, and provided a fair estimate to have the work completed. To our surprise, the work was then completed by his crew a few days later. The crew members were extremely knowledgeable and effecient. While replacing our cracked vinyl trim, the crew discovered that we had an entire section of vinyl siding on our home that had not been installed correctly by the original contractor and was too short. This was potentially allowing water damage for our home. I was able to speak to Dan for another estimate within a few days and get a second quote to have the section of siding replaced. Again, the quote was quite reasonable and the work was completed a few days later. The crew did amazing work and the siding looks fantastic. If we need services completed on our home in the future, this will be the first company I call for an estimate.
Description of Work: The Improvement Co completed two services for us regarding our siding. The first was to replace trim on our vinyl siding that was cracked. The second was replacing vinyl siding on our home that was not installed correctly by the original contractor.

I will call on this company again if needed in the future.
Description of Work: I had a wood entry door that had cracked and I wanted to replace with fiberglass door. I had several contractors come and give me an estimate but never followed up. The job was not that simple due to the size of the door. The Improvement Co. followed up and assured me that they could fix it. They fixed it and did a fantastic job. The contractors are easy to work with. They also replaced my screen on my porch and did a good job as well.

It all went very well. The price was reasonable and these are very nice people.
Description of Work: I called and Dan came out the same day to give an estimate to replace some siding on my house. About a week or so later the work was done quickly and well. Since the original siding size was no longer available, another was used that looks just as good. a few weeks later I asked for an estimate to replace an exterior door with an energy efficient dog door. That work was completed and I am very happy with how it turned out. Adjustments were made which made the dog door flush with the door and is attractive.

Outstanding company. Brian was a professional and great GF to work with. The companies and individuals attention to detail and commitment to quality is top shelf.

The initial consultation was thorough and I was provided options for the repairs I needed for damaged hardiplank siding. I was given a quote promptly. They completed the job very quickly and the workmen were very professional and respectful. The price was much less than the other quote I received. I am very thrilled to have found a company that did great work for a reasonable price. I highly recommend them.

I called The Improvement Company for a quote for some handyman services that I did not have the time or resources to complete on my own. An appointment was setup on the following day with Dan who came out to look over the house. He was there right on time and walked the entire house making a list and offering suggestions as we went. He understood my situation completely and was very kind and knowledgeable. I appreciated the fact that he wasn't trying to upsell me or exaggerate what needed to be done. He compiled a list, gave a reasonable quote, and (much to my surprise) was able to start on the work that afternoon! His employee worked quickly and efficiently to knock out a list that had been hanging over my head for years. He returned the next day to finish up the job and left the site cleaner than he found it. I was very pleased with the work performed and had complete confidence in Dan and his organization. It is clear that he has a high standard of honesty and integrity which I have found to be rare when hiring any type of contractor. He stuck to his word and did exactly what he said he would on time and on budget. I really appreciated this and I will be calling them again if/when the need arises.
Description of Work: Prepared house for rental. They repaired a screened in porch, built deck railing, installed a toilet and a closet door. Also performed multiple other "punch list" type tasks that I had neglected over the years.

Needed some siding replaced after a tree damaged it. Called for estimate, they came out the next day to perform the estimate. Took about 15 minutes, received estimate via email later in the week. Called back to schedule the work and they requested that I send the request as a reply to the email, which I did. They had some availability the next week, but I had other work happening at that time, so I had to delay. We were able to schedule the work for about 2 weeks later. The crew (2 guys) showed up on time and worked hard, but didn't bring a tall enough ladder, so were only able to complete the lower half of the house the first day. They came back on time the second day with the tall ladder and finished the work very quickly. Left without asking for payment. Brian (the estimate guy) called a couple of days later asking if he could come by and pick up the payment, and verified at that time that I was happy with the work.
Description of Work: Replaced the vinyl siding on the front portion of my house.

Dan, the owner, is very cooperative and very responsive. We had house guests while the work was in progress, and at our request Dan stopped work for two days while they were here. All employees were extremely courteous, considerate, and willing to get everything right. We had no difficulty living in the house while the work was being done or leaving the workmen alone in the house if we needed to go somewhere.
Description of Work: Addition to house including removal of an exterior wall and putting in a 20+ foot header above the ceiling where the wall was to provide a smooth ceiling with no visible transition from the existing space to the new space. Building the new foundation, roof, floor, exterior walls and windows, completing the exterior roofing, siding, gutters, flood lights, and the interior walls, ceiling, trim, lighting, outlets and switches.

Clint responded to my initial phone call and came to my home the next day and gave a detailed estimate. When I called to have the work scheduled, his crew was able to come on the day I requested. They completed the work in less than a day and cleaned up after they were finished. They also repaired several missing anchors that fasten the exterior shutters at no cost. Very impressed with the quality, cost, and duration of the project. I am having them come back to replace gutters previously installed by another company.

I had some quotes and found them to be the cheapest. They did a pretty good job. They did my roofing last year so I had them do my windows this year. I have fairly large windows. I like their selling style. Bryan Kelley came out and was very helpful. The installer came out and was telling me how to replace the windows. I think they did a really good job and I was impressed.

I was very pleased with the work done on my house. Brian came out and quoted the work. He was more than willing to answer any questions that I had (even if I chose another company). I am very pleased with the workmanship. The only negative things I can say are very minor. They were a little slow in completing the work. By that I mean, we had several different crews doing different jobs and it took about 3 weeks from start to finish. We were not in a hurry (I told them that) and it wasn't a problem for us. The clean up job was not immaculate. They did a very good job of cleaning up, but I found a piece or two. All in all, I am very pleased with the jobs and would definitely hire them again.
