Everything was great with the exception of the drywall repair, think that she used too much of something as it was very wet and ended up with a dent - the company offered for someone to return to repair but I wasn't certain if it was from the work done or my granddaughters curiosity touch. I will use these people again. They were timely and responsive to my needs.

Completed the job satisfactorily and in a reasonable amount of time.
Description of Work: Sorry, I did not write a review when everything was fresh in my mind. He added a stove and dryer vent in the attic. I can't remember what the exact dollar amount was. There wwere illness issues so the work was not performed when originally scheduled, but was then rescheduled and the work performed was exactly as promised.

My husband and I needed several things done around the house before putting our house on the market including grading our yard drain, caulking, painting, and resealing two showers. John and his crew did an excellent job. Mikey and Wes both paid a great deal of attention to their work, making sure the result looked as clean and professional as possible. John also came by and did the initial walkthrough with the crew and came back to ensure the work was done correctly. We could not be happier with their work and highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Stain porch beams and shutters, paint exterior dormers and interior touchups on chair rail, moulding, ceiling, and walls. Caulk exterior windows and interior bathroom shower, two tubs, countertops (kitchen and bathroom), floor by fireplace, and cove base. Regraded drain ditch outside of house and capped sprinkler head.

I'd give them a thumbs up and I'll have them back. One of my problems turned out to be a racoon and since they are not equipped to deal with racoons I won't hold it against them. They were reasonable and they made me some quotes that was reasonable. I have a wide diversity of jobs I need them to do so I will have them out again. They presented themselves well and were well mannered.
Description of Work: I last used John's Handyman Service a couple of months ago. I wanted to have them do some attic wiring but there were some raccoons that vetoed any work. I also wanted them to do some lock repair and fencing.

John was on time to provide an estimate for the work to be completed. He was friendly, helpful and very professional as we discussed the work to be completed. The date and time was set to do the work. His crew ( Chad, Wes and Mark) arrived in a timely manner. John went over the work to be completed with Chad (site leader). The team went promptly to work on the repairs and painting. Chad, Wes and Mark are a very friendly group. They executed their respective tasks in a very coordinated and professional manner and did a great job. My wife and I are well pleased with the results and definitely will contact John for any future needs.
Description of Work: Installed lights in family room and kitchen, repaired and painted window sills in upstairs loft and room used as office, repaired wallpaper, cleaned and painted shelves in laundry room, painted door leading from kitchen to garage, repaired and painted wall in master bedroom, touched up paint and caulked throughout house as needed.

We needed several little things done around the house. John came to give me a bid on replacing a light fixture outside the garage, repairing a light fixture in the house, repairing a commode that had a drip problem, repairing a "box" bed that had come apart at the headboard from the side boards, and replacing and painting the wood inside and out in our atrium. Chad was sent for the initial repairs and then returned another day with Mikey to do the woodwork around the atrium. After the wood was repaired, Kenny came to paint. The jobs were all completed in the time frame expected and every person was professional and polite. They were all punctual and the cleanups for each job were perfect. I am so thankful for Angie's list and the access to John and will definitely call him for any repairs or paint jobs I need in the future. The wood work and the painting are meticulous. I am totally happy. John and his crew are a pleasure to work with
Description of Work: Replaced a light fixture outside the garage, repaired a light fixture in the house, repaired a constantly dripping commode, repaired a "box" bed by re-connected the headboard to the side boards, repaired the front door lock, repaired a hole outside the house where animals were entering the attic, replaced a broken doorbell ringer, replaced and repaired all wood around the atrium of the house and painted the new wood and repairs.

The work was done exactly as I wanted.
Description of Work: John responded to my email within 12 hours and came to give me an estimate the next day. After the estimate, which was creating a new scuttle to my condo attic; removing an extra hot water heater and hauling it off; and, enlarging the scuttle with new trim, John could have come the next day. At my request, the work was done with 2 days. The two-man crew was professional; well informed about the work; neat and clean with the work site; and punctual. Everything you want in a handyman!

John is excellent! My wife & I bought a fixer upper house and I can only do so much. John came to my rescue in April on some plumbing and I have hired John twice since then to do some emergency roof work and also some repair of wooden siding on the detached garage. He is punctual, responsive, prices very fairly and has answered my calls even on a Sunday. Hire this man!

Great job! I will continue to call John's Handyman Service in the future! Thanks, John and Chad.
Description of Work: This is the fourth time I called John's Handyman Service and once again I am very pleased. John sent Chad out to replace my kitchen faucet and when Chad got here, he advised me to get a different faucet and with an air gap. Rather than leave and reschedule, Chad waited in his truck while I went to Home Depot and bought a different faucet - which was exactly what I needed to begin with. Chad then removed the old faucet and cleaned all the grime from the sink and then replaced the new faucet. He even cleaned up under my sink!

They were amazing. John, when he came to give me a bid, walked through the house, inside and out looking at my jobs knowing we wanted to sell. John spotted some rot on the exterior of our home that would FOR SURE been cited in the inspection and included those repairs in the bid. Kenny and Mikey spent three days here replacing wood where it needed it, repaired my drawer and primed and painted doors and door jams. They are amazing! Where the wood was replaced outside, the "seams" are seamless. The oil paint job was slick and clean. Kenny forgot one jam, I called John and Kenny was on the spot to paint....no hassles. John, Kenny and Mikey were all polite and worked hard.
Description of Work: We were going to prepare our house to sell and needed some painting, a dresser drawer repair and some caulking on a very hight edge of our cathedral ceiling.

Upon arrival he asked for a glass of water which I felt was inappropriate since he was there to give me an estimate. He quoted me at a very inflated price.
Description of Work: He quoted me at this very high price and said the job would take three days, and I knew enough about the job that it would take a day and a half max and the price was inflated.

Response from John's Handyman Service
The member's job was to remove brand new tile that was laid incorrectly, approximately 2500 small pieces !! I believe her time estimate was based on the time it took her last tile guy to ruin all her special order tile, and not what it takes to do it right,had no further contact after showing up on time for estimate, all of her grades for me are completely out of line. no work was done ! did not now asking for a glass of water on a hot day would be such an inconvenience for her. and that was on completion of my visit not arrival !!

The work performed by John and his crew was excellent, on time and at a reasonable price. He and his team are very professional including, for example, courteous and flexible during their visit. I always tell John that I love my house and, each time he completes a visit, I love my house more. I expect to use John and his team again.

No problems at all. Always showed up when they said they would.
Description of Work: Had them do a long list of items around the house: back splash tiling, floor tiles, installing stove vent, installing lights, brick work, re-setting sticking doors. All were done very well. Pleasant folks who actually speak English. Sometimes took a little longer that I expected, but when they got through, it was done right. Will definitely be using them again.

The two professionals who repaired my damaged kitchen were thoughtful and professional. They verified with me each time they needed to start on a new phase to insure it was what I wanted done. They cleaned up everyday and were polite and diligent in getting the job done right.
Description of Work: They resurfaced my wallpapered walls and textured them for painting. Rebuilt my bottom cabinets that were damaged by water. Replaced all baseboards and drywall then painted. Retiled backsplash and removed a closet that had been in the way for years. Opened up the area by reworking the space to make it more wheelchair accessible.

This is not really a "handyman" service but rather a professional services contractor. I was somewhat taken back by the price estimate, with a billing of $40 hr(2 x 40 = 80 for two men)plus material costs. But I needed the work done on my backyard fence and on my sprinkler system and I needed it done properly. The contractor's name was Shawn and he was accompanied by a helper. While the price was somewhat on the high end the work done, I thought, was excellent. Shawn even spotted additional work that was not part of the original estimate and did this without any additional charge. This is not really a day to day "handyman" service for those minor fixes one needs done around the house. But for more extensive work done on time and properly, I think they were very good.

Out of all the people we hired to do our complete remodel, John's crew came in and papered the floors and covered everything. They respected our property like it was a multi million home. They repaired and fabricated broken moulding, texture, holes, doors, etc.John worked around our schedule while we installed floors and things like that.Our paint did not turn out exactly like we invisioned. I didn't expect John to do anything but like he said during the estimate, I'll make it right. He did. Very professional company and would reccomend John without hesitation. I look forward to having John return for upcomming projects.
Description of Work: John was hired to finished some botched millwork and to paint the interior of our remodeled home.

He is a nice guy but I would not recommend him. The work is good and satisfactory but their procedures are terrible. The professionalism is not there. I will not use them again. John, who runs the company, employs deceptive practices. I thought he was going to do the work but he brought a sub-contractor to do the work and John left the premises. The sub-contractors were constantly calling John to have him come back over here due to problems. It was not a great experience. He used different workers on different days and he did not keep his word to stay here on the job site; left to go other places. He messed up on repairing my door bell so I had to fix it myself. His pricing was moderate. If I had not been here to check on them about every hour the quality of the work would have been a lot worse; I had to direct them.

They performed the work as requested and were responsive to my questions and requests.
Description of Work: I hired John's Handyman to remove and install a bathroom vanity, install new hardware in bathroom, and repaint the bathroom and laundry room, as well as a large mirror in the bathroom. He and his two workers performed the job in a professional, polite manner.

I found John's Handyman Service on Angie's List and he did a great job. Even though there were several things it did not take that long to do them so he charged me less than he quoted me by phone. He was very willing to schedule. He realized I lived in Houston and had a weird schedule and even offered to come on a Sunday which I told him was not necessary. He showed up on time.

He responded to my call same day. We met the next day and discussed work to be done. He emailed me pictures of cabinets at three different vendors that same day as ideas I could choose. I gave him a deadline because we had to move into the house. He did the work very well at a good price and on time. I will use him again. Very happy with the experience. My garage looks great.
