Description of Work: I started calling to schedule the work in September and didn't reach Alvin until late October, even though I left over a dozen voice mail message. He wasn't able to schedule the appointment when I spoke with him, he was going to call me back, but didn't. I finally got a time scheduled, then he had to cancel it, it took six weeks to reschedule. He no-showed the appointment, then made me wait three weeks while he completed another job. He struggled with the electrical work I requested him to complete and then left several messes for me to clean-up afterwards.

Description of Work: Provider took a long time to get scheduled, then a week before the service was to be provided, the owner notified me that personal circumstances were going to make it so that he couldn't fulfill the deal I purchased. I sought a refund from Angie's List.

Description of Work: He never responded. Once he was matched as my service provider on the Snapfix project I waited 24 hours as indicated for him to contact me. After that time frame I messaged him through the app and a few hours later I called and left him a message as well just to make sure I was covering all points for attempted contact. I then waited another 48 hours and still no response. So basically I waited 3 days for nothing. I've now given up on waiting for a response from him and have booked a more professional company for my project.

Description of Work: This was the $99 for 3 hours of handyman service deal. I had one main goal that was quickly accomplished so we moved on to two other projects. They both got done. What would have taken me days to do was professionally done in 3 hours and I couldn't be happier!

Wouldn't call or contact him again. No professionalism on his part.
Description of Work: I called Mr. Blackburn on a Saturday and he asked that I contact his office to set a time he could go out and estimate the work I was requesting which was painting. I did call his office twice - once when the mom wasn't available and again when she took down the information and service address. I was told he would go out on a Tuesday or Wednesday. I waited and had no call from him or email telling me he'd been by to do the estimate. I called him again and have heard nothing. His lack of interest in even returning my call tells me he has enough businss and doesn't need mine. Mr. Blackburn is not a good choice in my estimation. Sorry way to run a business.

He did a good job and worked hard. He did the job we asked them to do. He worked all day, 8 hours, to get the job done. He was very friendly. The price was fair and comparable to others I contacted.

He really had great attention to detail. He asked a lot of questions during the quote. He saw several things that we had not considered and that other companies had missed. I would recommend him. He noticed that we had some pipes that were rusting through the also needed to be repaired. He alerted us to some potential issues that could arise if we did not fix those first. He was also able to walk us through the process in order to satisfy his knowledge of what exactly needed to be done. We could really tell that he knew what he was doing.
Description of Work: I had a quote for some work I needed to have done. I needed to have some water damage repaired in a bedroom, bathroom and hallway. He is also going to remodel our down stairs.

They were very punctual, took a careful inventory of materials needed, gave me an accurate costing of same. They were prompt with scheduling the work.

The job went just fine. Everything works great. I've seen dozens of other happy customers too. I heartily recommend Alvin for any handyman work you need to have done.
Description of Work: Alvin installed a new electrical sub-panel in my basement. He's a very brilliant, innovative, creative fellow when it comes to troubleshooting and getting a seemingly impossible task done. I have had him help me on dozens of other projects through the past 9 years and I've always been impressed. In this case, he ran the sub-panel out into the garage which was far better than putting it in the basement which is what I thought about doing. It worked out so much better! He also ran plumbing for a new bathroom. That turned out fantastic too.

I called and left a message which was promptly returned and a quote was given over the phone; a date for installation of base molding and installation of a gfi plug was arranged. Their quote was dramitically less than the other handymen I had called had given. They arrived at the exact time promised and started to work. I had told them that I would have the molding for them to install but had forgotten which required them to shop for it. They started immediately upon their return and were done in about three hours. They cleaned up and left.
Description of Work: They had to remove a piece of base molding to match that which was already in the room, shop for the molding, measure, cut and install the molding. They also put in a gfi plug in a bathroom which did not have a plug.
