Ray, my handyman did an excellent job on all the repairs and even repainted the entire chimney giving it a new refurbished look. I was very pleased with the results and may hire him again for some additional home remodeling work.

I am a huge fan of Handyman Matters. My first interaction with the company was with Danielle, the Customer Service Rep. She explained the process of working with Handyman Matters thoroughly and answered a ton of questions that I had before, during the repair period, and after. She was also very helpful in providing directions/instructions when I dropped by the office to submit payment. I have never experienced an issue with getting a prompt response to a random question, even when she was on vacation! It's the little things that make a big impact where customer service is concerned. Danielle helped me schedule an estimate with Duane. He showed up, asked a bunch of questions, fully understood what I needed - complete small bath remodel, replaced a pedestal sink with a full-size vanity in the master bath, repaired several sections of drywall in two additional rooms that had gaping holes, and replaced a garage side-entry door. He completed the work for me and was in my home for over two weeks. Duane is extremely professional, highly skilled, and is way more than a handy man. He understands and can fix any sort of plumbing/electrical/carpentry/drywall/painting/structural issues that you may have. He is excellent at providing a shopping list for the items a customer can easily purchase on their own - huge cost savings there. And there were zero issues with items he purchased for "behind the scenes" work that went into my project. Raymond also helped finish up the work on my home. He is a great finisher with an eye for detail. His caulk/paint finishes completed my punch list items to my satisfaction. Finally, I cannot say enough about the owner, Ron. He is a man of integrity, very knowledgeable about the business side of house repairs, and helped me finish out the repairs on my home caused by Hurricane Harvey on a high note. This means the world to me. I will use Handyman Matters for all of my future home repair needs - from small scale jobs to large scale jobs. Everyone I interacted with at this company is concerned with delivering great customer service, being fair, working hard, and doing quality work. I have hired other individuals and other remodeling companies in the past but this is the first time I've felt that the folks working on my home actually cared about leaving the customer satisfied. This is the type of company you would recommend to your family and friends.

Found out lights don't flickering if turn up brightness. No work done but a bit of time spent verifying everything installed correctly. Very nice electrician. Too bad the company doesn't have a lower minimum payment. But they said beforehand that I would have to pay $128 no matter what, so I was not surprised.

This company specifically says it provides free quotes on Angie's list. It doesn't. I was initially told that they could give me a quote but they charge a $40 'trip fee' that's 'returnable' if they get the work. A trip fee? That's manipulative. The service being provided is a quote - so the $40 is a quote fee. I (like many) usually get a few bids when I have a project that's going to cost over 1K. Why should I pay anyone (especially someone I'm not familiar with) $40 when almost everyone else provides free quotes? More importantly, why should I trust a company, in which I've never used before, that says they provide free quotes - when they don't? My response from their Customer Service Rep (In fairness to their CSR - she was extremely polite in all of our correspondence and is doing as she's told) "We do charge a $40 trip fee to provide a quote that you do get back towards your work you get done. We can’t go around all day doing free quotes. We get about 25 quotes a day and this is a way for us to know who is serious and who isn’t." Too bad - I was serious, and they not only lost this job but they lost thousands of dollars in a ton of future remodel work that I have planned over the next 2 years.
Description of Work: Exterior painting - gutter removal, along with future bathroom, kitchen, and living room remodeling.

Future Customers: Please review previous feedback from actual customers. This is not a customer of Handyman Matters. We do offer free estimates over the phone, when pictures are provided or if we can review the project without an appointment. However, if we are being asked to troubleshoot a repair (I.e. leak or electrical problem) or asked to sit down and consult on a project we do charge for this. We can't work for free nor does any other contractor. We simply charge a $40 for on-site consultation fee, which is fully refundable when the job is booked. Furthermore, we tried for three days to get an address from this customer so that we could swing by to review his project and to provide him with a free estimate. We are a Super Service Award recipient for a reason. We offer amazing service and guarantee our results. Please review previous feedback from actual customers.

I'm satisfied with the work performed. I think Handyman Matters is a well managed company. However 688.00 dollars for a 8 hour day of Labor is outrageous for a handyman. Replacing boards does not require a special craft or technician.

Thank you for the feedback. Our standard process is for the customer to approve our quote before we begin a job. You approved the quote for this work, and we honored it, although the repair was significant and took 14 hours instead of the 8 hours we quoted. Job Scope: We demo'd the chimney siding, lifted the chimney cap, measured, cut and installed all new siding, and caulked and painted the replacement wood. Our technician worked on a roof for 14 hours and performed beautiful work that is under warranty should anything go wrong. Future customers: Our rates are higher than a typical, work-alone handyman because we are fully insured and bonded, and we warranty/guarantee all work performed by our highly skilled technicians.
They gave me an approximate price (based on my description) and I booked an appt. First, the office called me the a.m. of my appt. to let me know there would be 2 people showing up (one was "in training"). I liked that. They also called to see if they could come out a little earlier as they finished a job early. OF COURSE I SAID YES. Both were very nice and professional. I had the faucet purchased already but they suggested I use "shark" valves. I was all for that! Anyway, they checked to make sure there was no "damage to the outlet or electrical...installed the faucet...made sure I was happy with how it looked etc. I was SUPER EXCITED! They finished the job in less time than what I was quoted....and charged me LESS than the "estimate over the phone". This is the 2nd time I have used them...the first time was a MUCH bigger job (had to cut out and replace some siding that had rotted along with the plywood underneath). I won't ever hesitate to call HANDYMAN MATTERS. They are experts in everything they do. They are professional and super nice! The office called me after they left to make sure I was happy with the service! (They actually called me a week prior to this request asking me if I had any issues with the siding job they did almost a year ago.) I also received an email from the owner the next day stating they had made a mistake and over charged me by $10.00. I was so impressed by this as well. I was worried they had "under charged" me. It is such a relief to know that I have a company that I can call for anything I need done in my house. THANK YOU HANDYMAN MATTERS for giving me the peace of mind of knowing if I need to call to get something fixed...you will always be there and you will do the job right. I am VERY picky about things....I like perfection.....I like things neat and clean. THAT is why HANDYMAN MATTERS is my handyman company!!!
Description of Work: I called Handyman Matters to replace my kitchen faucet that had leaked under my sink. I was worried because the water had dripped into the electrical socket that my dishwasher and disposal plugged into. I also wanted the shut off valves replaced.

Two sets of drapes installed, hinges replaced on one cabinet door, outside gate raised/leveled so would open easily, 2 towel bars reinstalled so wouldn't fall out of wall. The work was performed well and at a reasonable price. My B rating is more for the admin side. Handyman not aware of all tasks when he arrived, so did not have needed equipment. This happened twice, during initial visit for estimate and 2nd rescheduling. As it rained when he did the rest of the work, it didn't matter. I still plan on hiring them again whenever I have another list ready.

Terrible! Paid for a whole day. Had a list of things I would have liked done, technician was only able to replace the attic stairway. Receptionist told that it did not matter if I purchased materials before technician arrived, that was not true. They buy their materials at retail from hardware store and upcharge the price considerably. I was told that the handyman would accept the coupon at the end of the day. I Presented an Angie's List coupon for $25 and he said he could not accept it stating that I was already getting a price break because I paid for a full day. Almost $1100 to replace an attic stairway. I now get to paint it myself!! Company is all about the $$$$

Future customers: Please review our previous feedback from other customers. We were a 2016 Super Service Award winner for a reason. We have dozens of positive reviews on Angie's List, our website and Google to support our business and quality of service provided. There is some misinformation or incomplete information provided here in this review that is unfortunate for us (and her) as a customer. Feedback from our customers is taken very seriously and we will use this to improve our business processes. Regarding the scope work: This was not a standard installation. The previous contractor poorly installed the attic stairs and caused some frame and ceiling damage. We had to repair the frame opening and repair the drywall. Additionally, materials were not provided so we had to procure materials for the work. It typically takes 4-5 hours to install attic stairs (when materials are provided). Standard installation is to remove existing stairs & trim, install new stairs and trim. We do 1-2 per month as a company and have extensive experience with these. This took an extra 3 hours to complete the repair due to procuring materials, reworking the opening, repairing drywall (tape, mud, floating), cutting/installing new trim boards and caulking. This was all discussed with the customer before we got started with the work and was approved (and completely satisfied) when the work was completed. Regarding discounts: We cannot double up our coupons and this is no different than any contractor or retailer. The customer had $25 Angie's List coupon plus a $57 dollar labor savings from HMM. We applied the greater discount. Regarding materials: We give our customers the option of purchasing the materials for the job (some contractors do not) or we can provide the service of picking up the materials. The markup covers our expenses, margins and the one year warranty that we extend for your product. Home Depot/Lowes will give a standard 30-90 day warranty. There is a lot of frustration procuring materials from the local home supply stores and we offer the service to our customers to eliminate this stress and frustration.

Didn't go as planned. The woman who scheduled our appointment neglected to tell us that they don't have certified plumbers to do this type of work (why not?!). So, when the guy arrived he couldn't do the job we called for. We ended up having him do a couple of small things. It wasted our time and money. They have an excellent reputation, so I will give them another chance, but be more careful in the future to be very clear on what is required. We used HM of Galveston on several occasions and they were great, but they're no longer in business. I think the owner retired.

Thank you for your feedback and I am sorry to learn that we had problems with your work order. However, we will not do repairs that we are not authorized to do and we only charged for the work that we did for you. When you called to have your faucet replaced, you did not specify "shower" faucet versus "sink" faucet. It was only when our Craftsman arrived to complete the work that he learned that it was in fact the shower faucet that was at issue. This involves opening-up your shower wall and replacing the rough plumbing control valve. The rough plumbing/valve-related scope of work should be performed only by a licensed journeyman plumber. I was informed that he reviewed the situation with you, and that he explained why he was not comfortable moving forward with your project. We have already taken the corrective action in our office to ask additional clarifying questions in the future when booking jobs for faucet repairs. Please give us the opportunity to earn your business in the future.

The job was difficult; but it was a success. Craig studied the requirements, the components, and details of the cook-top location before starting the work. It took a while; but the work progressed steadily as it overcame various complications including duct alignment and connecting wires which were a bit too short. It was more complicated than it seemed originally. I was glad Craig had multiple expertise to handle the different issues. He showed up on time, and he was also very pleasant to talk to during the process. I would use Handyman Matters of Clear Lake again.

I needed some gutters and floor laid, and I called Handyman Matters. Paul came out, he was great, took measurements and answered all my questions. He did everything right and was a very nice person. He said he would get back to me last Monday. Monday and Tuesday passed with no email or calls. I called on Wednesday and they said someone would get back to me. Thursday came and no one contacted me. I called agian on Friday, I was told someone would get back to me. Monday came, and I tore up his card and his bulletin. I expected them to follow up with me. I know things slip through the cracks but I am very disappointed. This is my first time using Angie's List, and I may not continue my Angie's List membership even though I still have a year left Paul was professional and super. He answered all my questions, but the company dropped the ball. I am giving them an F. It's a judgement call, because they did not follow through.
