They are very professional, came out when promised and did the work as required. Compared to other services of this type they are very expensive. But if you need to get something done in a hurry and don't have time to deal with scheduling problems then I would highly recommend.

Craig was fast and efficient as always. I feel comfortable having him in our home to do work.
Description of Work: This was the second time I had Craig with Mr. Handyman come out to fix things around our house. He replaced a broken bathtub showerhead and water handle, a rattling air duct, and a light fixture. He was fast and efficient and was even quick when he had to run to the store for a part. I will definitely be calling Mr. Handyman again!

They're always very dependable. I had no problem with them in my house without me there. They always cleaned up and they are fantastic.
Description of Work: I did use Mr Handyman of West Knoxville for doors or kitchen and bathroom remodeling in the last part of November. They did bathroom remodeling which is fantastic. They've done painting. They've done plumbing. They've done a lot of things which is fantastic. It depends on the service they are doing. It's an hourly rate. They will do a quote and they are good to go. They come in with a new project and give you a quote whether you gonna use the service or not. They've always been very reasonable and very convenient.

Overall I had a very good experience with them. They were very responsive, professional, and skilled. We had one small piece of mis-communication regarding one piece of materials needed, but that was easily resolved. The service tech was very professional, pleasant, and skilled. I am very happy with the results of the work he did. I would have no problem calling them again.

Their work is excellent. Everything was done as we wanted it and they asked whenever there were any questions about how to do things. They are a bit pricey because of their overhead. But you get quality work, which in the end pays for itself. They will also work with you to find ways of keeping totals down (this includes coupons).
Description of Work: We used them 3 times in 2012. This visit involved moving and installing chandeliers, ceiling fans, and bathroom lights. They also installed a bathroom door, and did other misc. work.

The overall experience went very well. In refinishing the house, Mr. Handyman found some unexpected surprises which they dealt with in a professional manner. His employees showed up on time and cleaned their work area when they completed the work for the day. Mr. Handyman worked with us on the estimate and stayed within our budget.

Mr. Handyman assessed the viability of structural supports. Ripped off old ceramic tile decking and Schulter matting which had been installed incorrectly by the original builder, Brentwood Builders, out of Nashville. Made repairs to plywood substructure, braced where needed, and put down weather proofing over the repaired spots. Installed concrete board and another weatherproofing mat over that. Then installed mortar bed with new tile and grout. They also tore off the rusted aluminum trim and replaced with new non-rusting material. We are quite pleased with the results. This firm was very conscientious for the most part and we do have to say that we interviewed a number of different contractors, but this was not an easy fix. Mr. Handyman was the first contractor who laid out a plan such that we felt he could do the job and as it turned out did it very well. It was important to be onsite during working hours as there were a number of questions that needed to be answered and tools to be lent in certain situations. We also asked Mr. Handyman for other references regarding the repair to the stucco failure on the house and so far we have been impressed.
Description of Work: Seven -year-old tile deck needed to be replaced as it had been installed incorrectly by original contractor; due to one repair contractor's investigation the deck had a dangerous gaping hole which had also damaged the drywall ceiling below. The mortar bed had completely disinegrated and all tiles were loose. The deck was unusable, unsightly, and unsafe.

John Carter arrived at the scheduled time. He reviewed what we were going to have done and took a look at all the projects. The lady on the phone told me that if I had already purchased the parts that they would install them and it would actually cost me less than having them supply the parts, so I made a trip to Lowes and had the parts ready. John made all the repairs, checked and made sure that everything was working satisfactorily and reviewed the work with me and presented me with a bill which was actually under the estimate. The work was done well and very professionally. He gave me a list of all the services that they perform and a discount coupon for the next time I call them. I will definitely call them again when I need help with projects around the house.
Description of Work: We had several small plumbing jobs that needed to be done including tuning up the toilets, replacing two bathroom faucets and finding a leak under the kitchen sink.

They were responsive - however, after being there enough time to rack up a bill - the guy was unable to do the work (which is why I scored them low on professionalism. The guy was nice enough and tried to be helpful - but......). Based on a later experience it is my opinion that he was over his head when it comes to plumbing issues and was unable to resolve either issue. HUGE waste of money. I would not recommend using them again for anything the least bit complex.

They were very fast at responding and coming out to our house. We did not use Mr Handyman and therefore cannot say anything aboput their work but i can tell you that their pricing is outrageous for what needed to be done. We were told we needed to change the entire bathroom floor because of a leaking toilett. Well it turns out the floor is not wet or rotten, we just need a new toilett that wont leak into the pipping when not flushing. Even if we had decided to actually change the entire floor, we got half the estimate from another company with the same ratting as Mr handyman (actually better rating since they have an A on pricing as well). As it turns out it doesnt look like we will need to change the floor at all. I do not know if the problem was them trying to make a small job bigger than it was or them just not knowing what was going on but unfortunately this has made me loose faith in Mr Handyman and will not be calling them again.

He came in and attacked each issue in order of my priorities. He was aware of my concern about cost (limited budget) and was diligent to keep on track and keep me informed.
Description of Work: I was concerned about the price, but the handyman was knowledgeable and experience enough to compete several projects quickly. I had a dog door installed; two large Ikea cabinets with doors, and a chest of doors assembled; washer leveling hanging a flat sprig TV on a stand, and installed a glass shelf. -- He accomplished all this in three hours.

After doing the measurements he started telling me that would need get all the materials, move the appliances and other furniture out, etc., and said the more we did, the cheaper it would be. I asked him to estimate both ways with us getting the materials and him getting the materials. He stated he would have the estimates to us by Monday. That was just over a week ago now, and we have not heard a word from him or anyone else at the company. Needless to say, we are now having to look elsewhere! If there was a problem, or if they just thought they couldn't do the job, they could have at least had the decency to call and tell us! We did not deserve to be treated this way!
Description of Work: I contacted this company to provide an estimate for replacing a floor and new floor covering for three and possibly four rooms. The gentleman, John, came out on Friday afternoon and conducted the inspection and measurements.

He was a hard worker and showed up on time. The price I was quoted was $450 and it ended up being $650 because they worked an extra 2 hours. The price went up a little bit because it took them longer than they said.

This was my first use of Mr. Handyman. Over the phone I had asked if I would receive a written dollar estimate prior to the beginning of work and my understanding was that I would. However, the handyman on the job refused to do so. He only wanted to give me a verbal "not to exceed". I had utilized a different handyman service previously, before they left the business, and they ALWAYS gave a written dollar estimate with a cost range and a top end "not to exceed". Since it was a small job, I agreed for him to go ahead on the verbal basis of a $200 "not to exceed". He was efficient and did a good job. On the "would you use again in the future?" question, I answered "yes" since there was no "maybe" category. My answer is actually "maybe" on the basis of the refusal to give a written dollar estimate.
Description of Work: Replaced the rotted bottom and one side of a window frame (exterior pieces, not the entire windowsill for example).

I have used Mr. Handyman multiple times and have always been very happy with their work every time big or small job. The patches and repair of where pictures had been mounted etc were perfect. The trim was perfect. They clean after themselves and are very respectful of my time. They installed new tile in my shower and tile at my entry way. Everything was perfect and smooth. Alan's team also cleaned up and completed work left incomplete by another contractor beautifully. These are people I would love to be able to use and keep anywhere I move.

Craig came out on the date above and installed our over the stove microwave/range hood, including putting in an electrical outlet up there for it, and installed 2 dial switches on the bathroom fan switches, even rearranging the order of the switches in one bathroom so that that switch was on the inside of a 3-switch plate. He was a little late arriving, but when I called the office, they contacted him and got me an ETA, and he arrived not long after that...I know well, having done some renovations on our new house, that some things don't get done in the time expected, and was not surprised when he was not there exactly on time. He was done the work in a timely period, and I even had to leave him in my home alone to lock up as I had an appointment I had to leave for, which he did. He did such a good job, for a very reasonable price (they charged by the hour) and gave me a very reasonable estimate on coming back to do my counter tops, I called the office immediately to book a time for him to return. He will be here next week, after we are able to pick up the counter tops we ordered, and I'll post an update then, but so far, I am quite pleased with the pricing and service. I will definitely consider using them as needed in the future. I live in West Knoxville.
Description of Work: Mr. Ellison himself came out to give me an estimate on installing an over the stove microwave prior to this date, he was very punctual and knowledgeable, answering my questions about the costs on various services. He even called back immediately after he left to let me know that one of their handymen was experienced at cutting and installing laminate kitchen countertops, which I had inquired about when he was there, but he was at the time unaware of any of his employees being able to do that. (I know, I imagine more are experienced in installing more up-scale countertops, with current trends, but I simply wanted to replace the damaged countertops with similar counters).
