Mr. Morren, is nothing less than outstanding. He is the most professional, most responsive painter/drywaller/handyman that I have ever contracted. I have been a rental property owner for 20 years and as such I have dealt with many painters or other repair specialists and never has anyone done what Mr. Morren did. 1/2 way through the job, he called me and made a suggestion to change the work. I assumed that he was going to ask me for more money, instead, he actually charged me less! To say that I was amazed is an understatement. Moreover, his quality of work and craftsmanship is second to none. If you need work done, he's the man you need to call and hire.
Description of Work: Mr. Morren painted 3 rooms for me, spackled several walls and fixed a ceiling in the utility room. He also painted a wall in my kitchen.

Hugh showed up on time every day and made sure we were happy with his work. Some of the textures were difficult to match, and he had to redo some of them at no additional charge.
Description of Work: We had quite a few cracks in the drywall due to settling of the house. Hugh repaired all of the cracks and retextured. He also did some minor repairs, restained our front door, and painted.

I have used Hugh a few times over the past couple of years. Each time he has been responsive in getting to the job. Unfortunately, he has been very, very busy due to the high demand for his work, but he makes the time to get the jobs done. He gives the receipts for items he has purchased so that I know he is not charging extra for materials, and he daily rate is reasonable for such high quality work.
Description of Work: Hugh did some work on a rent house, including removal of caulking and putting new caulking around a tub and sink. Additionally, he dug up two fence posts that anchored a gate and replaced them.

The process took a total of five days. He started on Monday and finished on Friday, just as he said he would. He was careful to protect the floor even though it is very old and is being replaced in a few weeks. He cleaned up after each day's work so that we could get in and out of our closets.
Description of Work: Hugh sealed and textured our wallpaper walls in our master bath, painted walls and trim, repaired the wall around our skylight and installed a new light fixture over our vanity.

Hugh Morren was prompt in coming out to give us an estimate and gave us a fair deal. The spare bedroom and the hall ceiling had a lot of damage so it was a lot more work than it sounds! We feel he went above and beyond to make sure the job was done right and would definitely hire him again!
Description of Work: We had cabinet doors and drawers installed in two bathrooms. Three rooms had holes in the ceiling from leaks, so we had him drywall those and fix other blemishes on the walls and ceiling in the hallway and spare bedroom. The closet doors in the spare bedroom had jumped off track and the door to the bedroom had carvings on them from my artist child. He sanded down the carvings, stained all the doors and put them back on track for us. We had him paint our hallway and small bedroom including the bedroom closet. We discovered the ceiling fan was not put on correctly by my daughter's friend, so we had him install a smaller one that works better with the room size.

Response from Hugh Morren
The frame condition of the front door was square and even so that door unit installed about as perfect as you can get. the finished product looked and operated perfect. Then when I went to install the back door unit the frame and floor condition was very unlevel and not square. I proceeded to install this door unit with bad frame condition, I got this door unit as close as I could. it operated well but didn't quite seal up. I'm sorry he was unhappy and could not understand the condition I was working with. I'm not sure any one could make this man happy and its two bad he could not give me credit for the front door.

Excellent! Hugh is trustworthy, works independently, and is honest to a fault. He is well groomed, professional, and someone you would have over for dinner. If he felt like he made a mistake he pointed it out to us, and then he corrected it. If we found something that we didn't like, he was not defensive about it, he just made it right to our satisfaction. Hugh is more than a handyman, he is someone who can help give direction if needed in any home improvement project. Many times we left him alone to work inside the house because we could trust him. You can't go wrong hiring this guy. His work and his Angieslist reviews speak for themselves. We have him coming back soon for our next project.
Description of Work: Cabinet work, installed a decorative exterior door (a second hand door) that he reconditioned to look better than new. In addition, there were many other small tasks that we bothered him with during his job at our house which he fit in and completed without complaint.

He came when he was going to and I told him what I needed for which I required 3 estimates. He sent me the same and I have emailed him back, that I am looking out for him and will be making a decision shortly. I am impressed with him and I will probably go ahead and follow through. We are talking over the money and willing to do it, probably from my retirement accounts. He was very thorough and came when he was supposed to. He told me, when I would get the estimates and I got it as committed. I am very happy with him and I will surely go with him. He will be doing a little bit of everything. I have a rent house and an own house. I had a lot of foundation problems, which has been fixed beautifully, but there is damage in every room, so we discussed all the rooms and what needs to be done. He gave me the estimate, although he didn’t know the exact cost of the materials, but he estimated what he thinks the materials would cost. There are several cracks and he is going to be doing, drywall, door frames and little bit of everything. I have a rent house where the outside panel is rotten and he will be replacing the wood and matching the paint. It involves a little bit of everything, a handyman type of work. I will be talking to my financial advisor to check how I will be paying for the job. I have been estimated roughly about $6000 and he has done everything he agreed to do, along with supervising. He is a nice guy and I will surely use him in future.
Description of Work: I received an estimate from Hugh Morren for some handyman works, within the last 2 weeks.

Overall experience was excellent. Hugh was very personable on the phone and arrived on time for the initial cost estimate. He climbed into the attic to perform measurements and then discussed how job would proceed. Replacement was completed a few days later without incident. I was very impressed with his attitude and we discussed several other future jobs that I will have him do. I highly recommend him for any work you may have.

Hugh completed all the work to perfection and even came back a couple of times to repaint because the paint I purchased did not match. The repair and texture is a perfect match and you cannot tell where it was done. I highly recommend him.

Hugh met with me and we discussed the work that I wanted done. He was on time and did not keep me waiting. Once Hugh understood what I was asking him to do he made a few suggestions that were right on and really would look better than what we had asked for. Hugh provided me with a quote for the work to be done and a time line of what would be done each day up to completion. The job took 4 days as he had told us and at the end of each day the area was cleaned up and in good order, On the completion Hugh walked through the work to make sure it all met our expectations and then packed up his tools and cleaned everything up before leaving.
Description of Work: Hugh made repairs to various cracks and bad spots in sheet rock, in four rooms. Installed a new a/c closet door with all new hardware. Removed the old and hung a new folding ladder for entry into the attic. Installed new quarter round in the Utility room.

Hugh Morren - Handymen. He is number 1. Did a heck of a job on our floors. It took a month, because we had other things going on. He is very easy to work with, very knowledgeable. Cleaned up everything, and put on a water line for our refrigerator. Did tile and grouted it. He was always there when we needed him. We even gave him a key to our house. He was wonderful. We will use him again.

The work is a work of a person who cares about the finished product. There were even some glitches in the plan, with suppliers of some of the hardware giving us the wrong pieces. He took it upon himself to research via the internet the correct part number, call the manufacturer in Houston, and confirm the part number that the local retailer had to order to make the job top-notch. Simply outstanding. He is a little pricey, but in this case you get what you pay for.
Description of Work: Hugh did work on modifying a cabinet to fit our large flat screen. The built in cabinet was made for the old style television. The work he did was outstanding and it looks like it was originally built the way he finished it. He also modified a table cloth hanging rack into a display case, including hanging some 6 foot by 3 foot glass doors. Overall, top quality work. He was always early or on time.

He did a real good job. He ran into some difficulties. It wasn't just a matter of replacing a couple of boards when he came out to give me the estimate. We found some additional damage that he had to fix. He went ahead and did that as well. We had some unique sizing for the wood. He had to go to a mill shop to get it to look correctly. He did an excellent job. He gave attention to detail in making sure that the job was done correctly. It took more labor. I don't know how you can measure the labor, but the original estimate was over $100.00 more. It was understandable based on the circumstance.
