Procraft Handyman Services

I don't want to say too much but overall Harry did not fulfill his responsibility. He seems only care about money. Not a pleasant experience. Will not use again.

We used Harry before for some siding/fascia/roofing work and were really impressed with how he handled the job. We've been wanting to re-do the fence in our yard for quite some time, so when the time came Harry was the first person we called. We explained what we were thinking of doing, and he had some really good suggestions on a slightly different approach. After a few days of discussion we agreed on a design and a price, and he started shortly thereafter. The job proved to be a bit harder then he initially realized, primarily due to the shallow soil in our yard, which required him to use a pick to drill the holes deep enough. We were really impressed at the amount of effort Harry put into this part of the job; it would have been really easy just to pour the holes 12" deep and half-a** the job (we never would have known), but he put forth the extra effort to do the job right and get all the holes to the correct depth. The construction of the main fence is absolutely gorgeous. He took a real craftsman approach to the job, designing the fence with horizontal pickets of various widths, and a construction technique that will allow us to easily replace a picket if it ever warps or is damaged (given what happened in the last wind storm, this is always a possibility). He topped everything off using deck railing, which gives the whole thing a very polished appearance. So, overall, another A+ experience with Harry. I would (and have) recommended him to friends and family, and he will continue to be the first person I call whenever I have another job.

I scaled Angie's list for days researching contractors. I stumbled upon the several positive reviews written about ProCraft Handyman services. I recently purchased a home that needed extensive work. Harry was quick to return my calls and gave me a bid on the job in a timely order. He is very detail oriented and he'll probably care more about the finished product than you will when he gets done. Harry's team replaced my falling down fence (did an amazing job too!). They also installed new lighting throughout the entire interior and exterior of my home. Harry also fixed a few minor things like a broken window. He went the extra mile one afternoon when I couldn't get back to the home from my office to manage the sub-contractors. He spent the afternoon supervising my landscapers, painters and Countertop installers. He's not afraid to go the extra mile.. If you're looking for someone with an eye for detail and a great team of people, call Harry. I will from here moving forward refer him to all of my clients that are looking to put their home on the market for sale and capture a positive return on investment.

Harry of Procraft Handyman Services is an honest professional and has many skills. He works quickly and has all necessary tools. On a second visit, he exchanged a light I had purchased for installation due to the high cost of installing it. Harry had told me that the way the attic was laid out, he would not be satisfied with the end results nor should I pay such a high price for the work. He found another solution for lighting on the other side of the master bathroom that was less expensive and works out really well. I found that as I had other projects done in my home Harry would provide input so that I could be smarter as a homeowner. From fixing drywall, installing lights in garages, and fine wood working, Harry can do it all. He has a great attitude about the work at hand and is very fore right in laying out the facts. Harry will find the less expensive solution for the high quality work her feels satisfied in completing. Do you have your plan landed out and what you want as a end result for your home. This helps a discussion with any person performing work in your home, but also with good input, Harry can and does make a great suggestion. I look forward to working with Harry on a major home project and several small ones grouped together in my home.

Harry came to my home early one afternoon for a quote and was ready to work. He was able to give a quote quickly and we settled the deal while he was here. I gave him the money to cover the material. Harry left and returned within a couple hours with materials and his asstant. Harry and his assistant completely removed the old deck floor, skirt and guard rail caps. They began construction on that same day. The two gentleman worked efficently and at fast professional pace. The next morning Harry arrived promptly at the time he said and began work. The work was completed on time. It was a quality professional job. Harry added the professional touches such as routing the board edges that sets the job apart. I thought Harry was very personable and was a very honest man. I do know a bit about handy man work and wood working in general. I felt that he didn't try to push me to do anything that was unecessary nor did he try to convince me to cut corners. He does the job right. I liked him so much that I have him coming back for more repair work in prep'ing my home for sale and asked him to quote more work at my new house that I am moving into soon.

It went well overall. Harry found some water damage so more shingles had to be used. The finished product looks good.

Our house has "good bones", but neglect from the previous owner/tenants means that it needs a good amount of TLC before it will really shine. One of the major problems was the construction of the upstairs balcony caused very extensive, ugly, and visible wood rot in the fascia near our back deck. We also had evidence that squirrels had made their way into one of the nearby soffet panels. We contacted Harry to give us a quote on fixing this damage; his price was reasonable, he had another good review here on Angie's List, and he very clearly explained what the work would entail in terms of parts and hours of labor and how everything was priced. After beginning to fix the fascia, he uncovered much more extensive water and insect damage that was initially visible, including rot in the roof decking, which would require removing the old decking, shingles, flashing, etc. As soon as the damage was uncovered, he sent me a photo by text so I could see what was going on. We agreed on a new scope of work so that this section could be fixed the right way. The next day, Harry and his crew worked through the day and well into the night in order to make sure everything was back together and watertight, so that we wouldn't have a big problem when a storm was due to blow in the next day. He did a really beautiful job, which was great, because... When he went to fix the soffet on the other side of the porch, he uncovered more moisture damage caused by prior bad construction and a squirrel's nest in the eaves. Again, he sent me pictures immediately, and took the time to explain everything that he would need to do, labor and materials required and so on. Again, he and his crew worked hard to put everything together the right way, so that we wouldn't have to worry about it in the future. He even provided me, free of charge, with some extra sealant he had from a previous job to patch an unrelated section of the roof. All along, Harry was friendly, professional, and really kept us in the loop with schedules, estimates, etc. It means a lot to me the way somebody handles a situation when it doesn't go according to plan, and Harry did an exemplary job. We really feel like he treated our home the way he would treat his own. We have a lot more work to do on our house in the next year, and we know we'll be calling on Harry to help with all the things we can't DIY.

Hired Harry to install 36 cabinet pulls in my kitchen and made a jig for the pulls and he did a great job. He clean up after he was finished and I will hire him again the next time I need help or improvements to the condo.

Let's get to the good part, the finished project as awesome; the lighting setup in the game/theater room is so far beyond what I had imagined. First, Harry was very prompt with his communication returned calls, texts and emails promptly. I had hired Harry to replace the back door and install 2 cabinets in my laundry room. I was kind of busy with work so he went to Home Depot got all the information for me, so when I went in I just gave them the paperwork and ordered the door and cabinets. This helped me a lot. Before he went to Home Depot he took time to talk with about what I wanted and recommendations about what would work best. He made sure to keep my budget in mind when selecting. While doing the work he was very conscious of the fact I worked from home and kept any noise to a minimum. After he finished that I mentioned that I was also looking for someone to do put in some recessed lights and replace ceiling fans. He told me that this was something he was able to do as well. So we talked and I showed him where I wanted them and unlike all the others I had contacted. He really looked at the rooms and explained how we could change things slightly and make it look better. He showed me how to highlight the wall where artwork or a picture was on the wall yet giving the room the light it needed. In the game/theater room I have movie posters on the wall and he was able to light them all up. He explained all the options and agreed on a price. When he was out getting the lights he found some that would actually look a lot better, he brought one to show me and explained that they were a little more. I okayed the new lights which were really nice and look much better. So throughout the entire project he kept the budget in mind and when he was finished there were no surprises. And the finished work is just amazing. I wish I could post photos of how the game/theater room looks. It was really refreshing to have someone listen to what you want and be able to make suggestions with no pressure to change. So many want to push more on you so they came make more. Harry was not like this at all. I highly recommend Harry from small jobs to big ones he does an excellent job.
