Steve remodeled my master bath a while back and it is beautiful. I even noticed the screws in the fixtures were all perfectly horizontal. Meticulous work! Friday, I panicked due to a water leak in my kitchen wall. I called him. He answered and showed up within 20 minutes. I know he is booked out thru February, but he took care of emergency water damage and resolved my leaks. All of them. In the crawl space and multiple failed pvc. I know he rescheduled remodel jobs to prevent a catastrophic failure in my house. Replace valve for fridge, replace failed hot water tank. And that's the level of commitment to be honored and appreciated. I'm blessed to have found him.

Scuba Steve has become my preferred handyman! Booking with him is effortless, he maintains clear communication throughout, and his work is remarkably precise. Moreover, his friendly and easy-going demeanor significantly eases any reservations about having a stranger in your home. Based on my experience, it appears that Scuba Steve is proficient in a wide range of household tasks. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any home improvement projects, regardless of size!

I scheduled a time for Steve to come and hang lights and TVs (in addition to review upcoming projects to be done) 2 weeks prior, and thought the appointment was set. I missed the phone call a day or two prior, apparently asking the possibility of moving the appointment up. Having not been able to subsequently respond, I thought the originally scheduled appointment was still valid. Apparently that wasn’t the case, when I called to check (after I took time off work) as to his status, he told me that he rescheduled over the original appointment. I was met with a rather unprofessional demeanor when I explained the circumstances, that the number that he called from was different than the original, so got filtered into voicemail, that doesn’t routinely get checked. Not a very welcoming feeling to the area

Response from Scuba Steve Premier Handyman and Remodeling Services
I called the guy to confirm our meeting as I do all my clients that books in advance, two days in advance to confirm our meeting. The guy never returned my call. He told me he didn't listen to the messages. The appointment was booked 3 weeks in advance! In that past I have had people change their minds and cancel work or just not be home. I had no idea if the meeting was going still take place or not, so I booked another project in his place. I offer to reschedule, yet that was not good enough for him. It is too bad that the lack of communication caused this misunderstanding. I show up and I preform at a TOP LEVEL of craftsmanship, yet I cannot when there is no commination between the parties involved. We will take this as a learning experience and continue to offer excellent service to all.

Steve is great to work with. Steve helped me update all my lighting in 1 day plus some plumbing repairs. He worked 8 hours straight until all replacements and repairs were made. Steve has been very helpful to me in Real Estate sales. He is reliable, knowledgeable, and ready to work. Super Satisfied Customer!

I am very happy with my kitchen backsplash that Scuba Steve did! He was very professional and did exactly what he said he would do! His work ethic is second to none. He showed up early, rather than late or not at all as is the case with so many contractors in this area. I highly recommend Steve for any project you have.

Scuba Steve exceeded my expectations. He answered the first call, and no additional calls were required. My master bath renovation started and ended on time. He provided up to date statements with receipts, credits, and draw schedule. Very professional. He helped me shop selections and ended up being my interior designer. I could not be happier with my beautiful bathroom. Added perk: He worked safely around my pets.

The kitchen ceiling fan was a bit troublesome, but that was no fault on Steve's part. The junction box was the culprit but Steve solved the problem. The pressure washing made the house sparkle and the stain on the deck has renewed the deck. Awesome job guys! Thank-you for your hard work.

Steve handled everything very professionally. He was easy to work with and very competent. During estimation he told us what he expected to have to do and how much he expected it to cost. He was upfront about his time table to be able to start. Once he started, the project flowed smoothly. He replaced the broken French drain that caused the moisture intrusion. Afterwards, he removed the moldy carpeting, tack strips, drywall, and studs. During the project, we asked him to upgrade the room from fluorescent to LED with a dimmer. He was upfront about the added cost. He cleaned the mold off the concrete, filled the cracks in the concrete and sealed it up. Then he replaced the studs and drywall and painted the whole room. He supervised the carpet installation at our request. What was once a molded bonus room is now a fully functional, comfortable, and beautiful homeschool room for our children. Thank you, Steve!!!

The bathroom floor isn't level. He tried 3 times with "self leveling cement" and couldn't get it right. For a remodel pro with 30 years experience, that's ridiculous. The rest of the project had it's problems but turned out Ok. I'll have somebody else come in and fix the floor. If they are able to pour a level floor on the first try, Ill come back and change this review to 2 stars. Steve is very personable, answers your questions, and explains what he's doing, but in the end, the result speaks for itself. The bathroom has a big bump in the middle of the floor.

Response from Scuba Steve Premier Handyman and Remodeling Services
I'm very surprised. I asked him if he wanted us to remove what was on the floor or go over top. The home owner told me to go over top of what was on the cement. He gave the okay to go forward and never asked me to correct the issue. We pride ourselves on making things right. Yet we can only know if the customer isn't happy with something if we are told. I can only say. At the time we moved forward because the home owner approved the repairs and told me he didn't want to spend more money to do the additional work. So that is what we did. Now because it did not turn out as he wished he want to place blame elsewhere. But refused to do what was recommended. It's hard to satisfy without communication. All we can work to do better with our part and the next home owner is more forthcoming...

Steve responded promptly to my request for Quote on work needed unlike several others I'd contacted. He came out and provided a Quote on everything asked for and gave me an good explanation on what the jobs would take and how he'd go about it. He quoted all jobs and gave me a schedule within a week of when he could come out and do everything. Steve was out as scheduled performed all the work (except the Deck which was scheduled for the next day) with no assistance needed from us and very professionally. The next day was washed out due to rain and as soon as we had a break in the weather Steve showed up again, went right to work and finished the last job once again better than we hoped we'd get. Steve is a Professional and does exactly what he says he'll do. We are very happy to find him and even happier about the work he did for us.

Steve did a fantastic job remodeling our master bath. From demo to completion took 3 weeks (M-F, from about 8 AM to 2 PM every day.) He showed up every single day on time except once for a family emergency, but he called and gave us notice, so no worries at all. He explained everything he was doing along the way, and had good advice on things like grout choices, finishes, etc. You get more than what you pay for with Steve. We've used several different companies and handymen for our house projects, but going forward we'll always call Steve first.

First, I received a call from "scuba Steve" asking if he could come several hours early. When he arrived, he appeared to immediately have a bad attitude. Still, I attempted to pleasantly interact with him to review the needed repairs. He began to tell me this would probably cost...were probably looking at...I then shared with him that I would have to have a written estimate at his convenience. This appeared to anger him, he stormed off, got in his van and left. No further contact, certainly, no written estimate. Very unprofessional.

Response from Scuba Steve Premier Handyman and Remodeling Services
The home owner showed me work on the roof and siding which I'm not qualified to do. I tried to explain to him that I was not the correct person to replace his roof and siding. But no matter how many times I stated such, he insisted that I send a quote. I feel bad I could not provide the services he wanted. I will take his comments with great reflection. All I can do is to attempt to be more clear in my explanation of the services I am well experienced in. I surly would not take on a project I could not professionally finish. I would like to add. I try to always be pleasant when talking to others. I can only hope to find the home owner understanding when I can't submit a bid for work I am not qualified to preform so I won't not get another review as this. I can see I failed in my efforts with this person. I will do my best to explain more clearly in the further to a home owner when I will not be submitting a quote because I am unable to take on any particular project.

Steve was excellent in his straight forward manner and honesty in evaluating the job and providing a quote. He showed up early every day he was scheduled to work and accomplished the work he said he would do. And he did an excellent job. I added more to the job as it went and Steve was fair and direct in how he could do it, fitting it into his work schedule and providing a fair quote. I've kept his business card in case I want any future remodeling or repair work done - a direct, honest, and competent contractor is hard to find.

Steve was easy to reach and replied the same day as my inquiry. After I gave an honest description of the job that I needed done, I received a verbal good faith estimate of the job. The next day Steve came to the home to see the project first hand and give a written quote. After looking at the job, Steve decided to pass. I believe that it was more than he desired to do and he realized that he underbid the job. I think we both ended up on the right side of things. He did not want the job and I did not feel confident either. I am now looking for another bid. I am sure that it will be more, but that is okay. A workman is worthy of his hire. I just hope to find someone that is priced fair that I feel comfortable with.

Thank you for the feed back. I did not feel the price the owner of the home was offering was fair. That is why I passed on the project. After seeing the project, and that I would need to remove the counter top and base cabinets and the person I spoke with wanted me to lower my price. I felt it was better to move on and not make a bid.

We knew we had a leak and other issues in our master bath shower. We thought possibly the tile/shower needed to be completely replaced. Called Steve to get an estimate to replace tile/shower. Turned out to be a faulty pipe that Steve replaced. Steve was easy to coordinate with, was here when he said he would be here, thorough and honest. Will definitely use him going forward for repairs and remodeling.
