Although you had to get a refund for the Big Deal since you're located in Arkansas, it good to hear you were able to find someone to wash your windows.

THEN he handed me the invoice: $665.42 for labor and $236.11 for material. In other words, I paid almost 100 dollars per hour for labor....since work was completed in 7 hours in one day. I was stunned. I expressed that to him in an E-mail.......no response. I already had handyman work done by others, which turned out to be not as good as I had expected. I decided I simply needed to pay more to get the job done right. I am happy enough with Troy's work, which is not the same as being satisfied. The reviews that I read were positive; but the one I have written is not.
Description of Work: I received an estimate of $1640 for eight items and chose four. The four that I chose: 1. stain bathroom under sink cabinet 122.50 2. adjust bathroom door to close properly 30.00 3. 4 shelves in hall closet ** 350.00 4. 4 shelves in pantry** 387.50 total $890.00 for labor and material to require 1.5 days ** "...per owner's request of spacing and style" I was perhaps remiss in not watching the entire process. I returned when Troy was done...only to find spacing in pantry was not followed. He agreed that it was incorrect...but I let it go.

Response from Yellow Van Handyman
It is unfortunate that the pantry shelving area was much smaller than the homeowners specified measurements and an adjustment was made based on the described function. When the homeowner saw the completed work, they seemed very pleased. As a courtesy, a few additional requests (outside the estimate) were also completed. It was only discovered later through an email and this review that the homeowner had issue with both the work and the price. Aside from repeating all that had been explained previously in person in terms of both the estimate and work (that was initially accepted) it was unclear what further response would remedy this displeasure.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It was great. The guy was good and he was on time. He did a good job. I would recommend him. He did what I wanted him to do. The price seemed reasonable.

He was responsible, timely and did a very proficient job. He was a good communicator. He later did some some more handyman work for me. I would use him in the future for window cleaning, but not as a handyman. I felt this was too expensive.

It is our goal to respond to requests as soon as possible, providing a consistent, pleasurable experience for all who use this service.
Answering service handles scheduling and collects an overview of what you need done. Scheduling was very easy, and Troy was responsive via e-mail with my questions. He arrived on time for the free estimate and was very courteous and punctual. On service date, he was also on time. He took inventory, went to get supplies, and came back to get the job done. Five hours later, all items on our punch list were handled. He walked us through the work, confirmed it was to my spec, and finally settled at the end of the day. Fairly uneventful, but really REALLY appreciate his professionalism, honesty, and his reasonable cost. Will use Troy for all my handyman projects in the future.
Description of Work: Replace baseboards, replace door frames, replace moulding, replace registers, some painting, and fixed fence.

When Troy arrived he was very nice and professional. He had told me that he was going to arrive at 9:00 AM and he rang the doorbell at 8:59 AM so he was very punctual. He quickly installed the fans and cleaned up everything and even took the boxes the fan came in. When everything was installed he took the time to show me how to maintenance the fan and what to do if it gets off balance. There was some confusion with some coupons on Angies List I had purchased but we worked everything out. A week after he came he sent a handwritten follow up letter thanking me for my business. Overall I am very satisfied and would recommend Troy to anyone in need of a handyman

Troy came first to see what needed to be done, then sent us an estimate by e-mail. We approved the estimate and arranged for him to come and do the work. He brought 2 helpers with him. They were very professional in covering things we did not want to get paint on, very precise on painting the different colors (white ceiling, beige walls, one accent wall). Very attentive to details. It looks excellent! They cleaned up after themselves very well. They cleaned out gutters that had needed it for quite a few years. The downspouts are actually working now! They replaced the hallway light that had stopped working. All-in-all the work was done very well and they were delightful to work with.
Description of Work: Painted all walls, ceilings, door and baseboard trim in living room, hallway and entryway down to basement level. Cut back carpet for trim paint (we are planning to re-carpet area and wanted paint to be covered when new carpet was laid) and removal and rehanging of very large mirror and large wreath hung high in entryway. Cleaned gutters on house and awning area (LOTS of old apples from apple tree that hangs over awning). Removed old light that was not working and installed new light in hallway. Trimmed pantry closet door to open properly.

The Yellow VAN Handyman showed up on time and started work right away. I was immediately pleased with the results, but later found some minor missed spots. My biggest concern was about pricing, but it is probably at least partially my fault. I bought a fixed price for a set number of windows. I never received a window count, so I have no idea how much future services would cost with the Handyman if I didn't buy the package.

3 p.m. On the day of the service Troy called to inform me he was running late, showed up about 40 minutes later. I had another appointment to get to by 4 p.m. and left Troy to do his work. When I came home, the work was done, but I was disappointed in the quality. Almost every window was streaked, and the corners of most were still dirty. Not the same job he had done before. Disappointed.
Description of Work: Exterior window washing. Troy has done them before for me and his work was teriffic, however, this time, response time was slow, there was confusion regarding the scheduling time. When I first talked to Troy we had scheduled the work to be done and then the weather turned and I preferred not to have the windows cleaned and then immediately ruined by the storm. So I called Troy and we rescheduled for the following Tuesday at 1 p.m. I then got a follow-up call from the scheduling center telling me it would be at

Great. This is the third time I've used this company. Troy came to look and the disposal and gave me the option of fixing it or replacing it. I opted to have it replaced because is 13 years old. He went to Home Depo and picked out a replacement and it only took about 1 hour to install the new one. Total cost with a new disposal was about $250. I definitely recommend this company and will use them again.
