It was all good. He was very good with his estimate, and it was very detailed about what he was going to do, and if he was not able to make it because we had a lot of rain. He called me to let me know that we would have to reschedule. He just kept in touch with me.
Description of Work: Clutterbusters put up some gutters for me. They also did some repairs around my house.

Joe called within 24 hours of placing the request on the website. He came when he said he would. Price was reasonalbe and worked diligently until work was done. At one point we had to leave the home while another vendor was here and Joe was willing to stay and lock up when they were done - my husband trusted him enough to do this even though we had only known him for two days. Would definitly use him again and plan to!
Description of Work: He installed three garage door openers, installed a ceiling fan, installed door throughthe wall in garage to access space underneath bouns room stairs for storage. Measured and will replace (when it comes in) the back door to include a dog door.

I really liked this gentleman and was hoping to be able to use him. Seemed extremely knowledgeable and detailed. Looked at our kitchen remodel job and some other odds and ends on a Wed. was to get us a quote mid week the following week. I followed up mid week and he said he sent the quote to my email. I did not see anything so checked junk as well. Call him back to please resend. Said he sent it and still nothing. Called again to verify my email address and once again said he sent but still nothing in my inbox nor junk mail. Let a message Saturday morning and did not receive a call back. My husband call the following week to follow up and give him his email since for some reason he continued to say he sent the quote but yet I rec'd nothing. He never did send the quote and did not call myself or my husband back. Extremely nice gentleman and this was very disappointing. If he did not with to do the job, we would have liked for him to say so rather than give us the run around.

Response from Clutterbusters
Ms. (member name removed), Even though it has been some time since we last spoke I did want to respond to your review comments. I agree we failed to properly follow up with you after we attempted to submit our estimate to you. Unfortunately, we were not aware that our submittals did not get through to you due to malfunctions in out procedures and network. Regardless, the fact is this is no excuse. To begin with I must offer my understanding of your dissatisfaction and my deepest apologize. I can assure you we were very interested in providing service to you and to assist you with your projects, but the technical issues caused us to be unaware of non and miscommunications in a timely fashion. In some cases we showed that estimates went through fine. We were attempting to back track the estimates for follow up, but the volume proved to be significant and difficult to complete. Again, not an acceptable excuse. I expect at this time you have moved along with another provider of service, but should you be willing to give us another chance we would be extremely appreciative. Again, thank you and our deepest apologies, Joe Carlson

The owner of Clutter Busters came out and he was very nice. I just wasn't able to get the work done at the time. He came out once, he took some pictures to have some references when making the estimate. He was very thorough, he did not send me the estimate until he had gone through the county about permits and regulations and rules. I was very impressed. He was very easy to get a hold of and he was quick to respond.
Description of Work: I got a quote from Clutter Busters. The chimney looks like it is leaning and so the quote was for removing to remove the chimney and build a new one and put the caps.

Informed that I would receive an estimate for the job in 2-3 days via email after making the assessmen. More than a week later and still no estimate of cost or follow up of any kind from CUTTERBUSTERS. I must assume that an emergency occurred that prevented the company from getting back in touch with me.
Description of Work: Arruved promptly to make an assessment of work to be completed. His demeanor was that of a professional who displayed competancy and friendliness. I was impression with the fact that he understood exactly what I wanted done. He knew exactly what was required to get the job done.

Joe came out to the house several weeks ago, and spent almost 2 hrs talking me through the issues I had with a leaky shower pan and damaged drywall. We also went through the rooms of the home, as I wanted a quote for painting the entire house (broken out by rooms, as I am not sure how much I can afford to have finished at one time). I absolutely loved Joe, and appreciated the time he took to walk through my projects and give advice, and I actually feel bad leaving a negative review. The issue is that after 4 weeks, and multiple follow-up emails, I cannot get a quote for any of the work. I was really looking forward to giving Joe my business, and am disappointed that I will not have that opportunity. *Update: Joe contacted me and provided an estimate which was lower than one competitor and higher than another for both general contracting and painting.

Joe was very prompt according to his appointment time; however, he said he would email us a quote in a couple of days. It's been about 3 weeks and we have not heard back from him. Also read a comment from November and it happened to that person too.

Response from Clutterbusters
Mr. (member name removed) I realize it has been some time since we last spoke, but I did want to respond to your review comments. I believe we may have attempted to communicate the estimate to you we have had some considerable technical issues with a number of components of our internet and network. We have found out over the past few months that these issues had been very extensive and cause severe issues to our estimating and communications methods. The short of it is this is not an excuse. We believe, after extensive efforts, that we have corrected or resolved solutions to these issues. I realize due to the time elapsed that you have very likely found other providers. I would like to offer my understanding of your dissatisfaction and my deepest apologize and ask that should you be willing to give us another chance in the future we would be extremely appreciative. Again, thank you, Joe Carlson

Joe Carlson of Clutterbusters did a great job. He finished about 80% of all the many odd jobs I have in just 2 days (he will finish the rest after the holidays). I was very happy with all his work. The best thing is his organized detailed quote of the work he was going to do with ALL costs. He finished the work and everything cost EXACTLY what I expected. No higher. Overall, I just really trust Joe, which is VERY important. I will certainly use him again and recommend him to anyone interested in a good handyman. -Gary S.
Description of Work: Some basic elelctrical work, basic plumbing (fixing a leaking bathroom faucet), some drywall repairs, fixing some doors (interior doors sticking and exterior weather stripping), and a few other smaller general handyman jobs.

After setting up appointment, Joe Carlson owner of Clutterbusters, arrived exactly at agreed upon time. He was to put in a new ceiling fan and remove our old one. Once he discoered we had a missing part ... the down rod .... he tried to track down by calling different stores to see if they had one. Once we found a store that carried the size we needed, he began to remove the old fan and I ran to the store and picked up the new down rod. As soon as I returned with the part he proceeded to complete the project. When finished he cleaned up any mess and made sure we understood how the fan worked including the remote control. Even though it was not his fault that a part was missing, he stayed until the part was bought and brought home and completed the project. The charge was what he had quoted and even though it took longer because of my having to go to get the part, he did not charge any extra. We are extremely pleased at how well he did the job and gave us information and advice on many different projects. He is definitely a true and quot;handy manand quot; being able to handle any type of project and doing it well. We will call him many times in the future.
Description of Work: We have used ClutterBusters before to install a microwave over the stove. The job was done well and we were very happy with them. We had a ceiling fan installed yesterday and a part was missing and he took the time to find where we could get a replacement. He continued to work on the project while I was getting the part. Once I gave him the missing part he was able to put up the fan quickly and securely. Showed us how to work the remote. Did not leave until we were completely satisfied and we assured him we would be calling him soon to put another ceiling fan in for our daughter. Joe Carlson responds to phone call messages within 24 hours and works to fit into our schedules. The job was done efficiently and he cleaned up any mess there was. I will be calling on him for any future needs without hesitation. Very reliable.

Mr. Carlson promptly came out to discuss the work I wanted done on this and quot;fixer-upper.and quot; I was impressed with his attention to the problems we addressed and appreciated his comments and suggestions. He said he would call me with an estimate by the next week. Three weeks later I had heard nothing so posted the experience on Angie's List. I felt his failure to follow up was a poor way to do business. Clutterbusters responded to the review right away. They stated they had discovered a problem with their e-mail, that their e-mails were not being delivered and they were not being notified of the failure to deliver - they had attempted to e-mail me the estimates. Almost immediately thereafter I received the estimates in the mail. They were professionally done, reasonable, and although I had already hired someone else to do part of the work, I will definitely contact them again and have them do the remaining portion.

Response from Clutterbusters
Our deepest apologies. We have recently become aware of a malfunction due to an upgrade incompatibility between AOL and older versions of Internet Explorer. The incompatibility has evidently caused emails to be sent but not be delivered without notification to us of error. We had sent the estimate as promised, but it was not delivered. This is not an excuse, but an explanation. We take customer service and relations very seriously. We are working out our issues with the network. We will send out a copy of the estimate via conventional mail. Although we hope you will review and reconsider the estimate, we understand your concerns and the inconvenience. Should you consider using our services we will do our best to meet your original expectations and satisfaction. Again we deeply apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate the opportunity to assist you. Joe Carlson CLUTTERBUSTERS
