Bob's Handyman Service

Great! Non intrusive, tidy, experienced, communicative. Just going to call them for the fourth time. Reasonably priced.

They showed up on time and did a great job. The estimate was accurate. Very good communication.

Bob initially came out and gave me what I thought was a reasonable estimate. He then promised time and again to get out on the job. After a couple of months I finally gave up and hired someone else to do the job.

They arrived on time, did the work requested, were very prompt in responding to inquiries via the site, and were very reasonable on costs.

He did a beautiful job & am very pleased with his serviced I also need to correct my first review of him. He did a beautiful job on the shop & will continue to use them for ALL my home repairs & will recommend him to family and friends. Thank you, Pat Scott 307 Fox Hill Dr. Waco, Tx 76705 (254)744-1652

On time and fixed it right the first time.

Great! Couldn't ask for better. 2nd time I've used Bob and both times excellent work.

Bob's Handyman Service is a dad and son operation that is very informal and less than professional when it comes to quotes, billing and following through on completion of a job. Our experience was that Bob had a problem with communication and misunderstandings and when we tried to clear it up, he chose not to discuss with us but to hang up the phone or to not call us back. This was after he had been paid up front for materials and 99% of the labor cost. We requested an accounting for materials but he would not provide receipts. Admittedly, he and his son did do some of the work they contracted for well. But what they didn't do well, was really incomplete and done badly. It seemed that work that was too difficult for them, they chose to ignore or was and quot;not in the contractand quot;. We asked several time for certain things to be done, but the end result was very shoddy. The floor area where the water heater was located had gaps where the ground outside could be seen before repairs were done. Bob was asked several time about how this repair was to be done, and no satisfactory answer was given. Unfortunately, it was almost as bad after work was finished. We could still the light from outside but in two places, not one. Bob was asked to repair the bathroom walls and bath surround. Sheetrock repairs were very shoddy and totally not matched up in places where gaps were left. His remark was and quot;The bathtub would have to be removed to do the work and he wasn't doing that.and quot; The work behind the commode and lavatory was awful. Bob was asked to repair the floor in the bathroom. It was mentioned more that once to him. But it was not listed on his first quote and even though we thought the work was to be done, he never did any. He later explained he understood someone else was going to do the floors and it was not in the contract. This was very disappointing and confusing. Pictures are of areas after work was finished.

It appears that many handymen are not capable of completing their jobs in a professional manner, but I can say my recent Handyman experience was satisfactory. Handyman's work was done methodically and professionally by both father and son.

Bob was very quick to respond to emails and was able to provide an accurate quote based on pictures I sent him. We were very happy with they work they performed - not just the actual repair but the clean up afterword. We will definitely consider them again when it is time to complete some of the other projects for our home.
