Walter came out and gave me an idea of the scope of the remodel. He outlined in detail exactly what I wanted to do. He works quickly and efficiently. I will recommend this company to everyone.
Description of Work: These guys finished a new Kitchen with cabinets, granite and realigned plumbing and gas fixtures. Ceramic Tile and found out that Walter is licensed to do most any construction job. They clean up after the work and I am a very happy customer.

Walter was very prompt in returning calls and the work was done in a timely and efficient manner. When he adjusted the kitchen cabinet, he removed the entire cabinet and trimmed a small amount from both the top and the bottom of the cabinet. By doing it this way, the cabinet continued to align with the adjacent cabinet and it was not obvious that the cabinet had been trimmed. He and an assistant did a great job with the drywall and painting. They covered the area well, so there was no mess when they were finished. They worked quickly and professionally. The end result was that everything looked perfect and you couldn't tell that any work had been done. We are very pleased with all the work performed and would definitely call them again.
Description of Work: Walter perfomed work for us on three separate occasions. We first hired him to trim an overhead kitchen cabinet so that a new refrigerator would fit underneath it. The cost for this was $185. The second job was to make some minor repairs to drywall in our livingroom due to a leak; he also repainted the wall, and touched up an area on the ceiling that had been affected. He charged $300 for this. Finally, we had him repair drywall and repaint our kitchen ceiling (we had had recessed lighting installed by an electrician). He charged $300 for this job.

I spoke to John on two occasions. Both times, John promised to get back to me promptly to schedule an estimate for the work I needed to get done. After he failed to call me back the first time, I called him again. He apologized for failing to show up that morning; however, I had to remind him that we had never agreed that he would come that morning because he had never gotten back to me to set up a time for the estimate. He apologized again. He said he was in his truck and had to consult his calendar and would call me back quickly to set up the estimate. Again, he failed to get back to me.
Description of Work: No services were performed because John failed to get back to me after two phone conversations.

We regret that you experienced the worst of us. We strive to make sure everyone receives our best. I dropped the ball. We weren't prepared for the volume of calls and emails we are receiving because of Angie's list's awesome review process. When someone writes a bad report it makes the phone stop ringing. We have taken that break to regroup and evaluate how we can provide better and more efficient service. We do our best to respond to everyone. It wasn't personal. The fact that this happened shows that we are human. In spite of the fact that the rest of our reviews show that we can leap tall buildings with a single bound. We wish that you would have had a better experience with us.

I requested an estimate for the following work: Lay a plywood floor in my attic, install an aluminum compact pull-down stairs in the existing ceiling opening, add a ceiling light fixture in the attic, and patch a small hole where small animals might enter the attic. Walter came by to take a look. The following day, I received an estimate from John, his partner. The estimate was 5 1/2 times higher than an earlier estimate I received from a general contractor. After telling John what the other bid was, he said he would take this information into consideration when pricing similar projects in the future.
Description of Work: The principals of the company were professional, polite and punctual. However,their estimate was waaayyy over-priced at $4,000.00 compared to the $710.00 I spent hiring another general contractor.

Thank you for your review. We are always evaluating our services and practices and do in fact consider things exhaustively when a report such as this comes in. When we came out to view your project we understood you to say that you wanted it done right. For starters you suggested that we should notch the rafters in order to allow the electrical lines to run through them. We couldn't in good conscience perform the job in this manner as it would not only be in violation of code. It could become a fire hazard as well as weaken the structural integrity of the rafter system. The electrical lines needed to be re-routed in a manner which would adhere to code as well as being done in a professional and safe manner. We also would have to remove and re-install certain pipes from the attic in order to properly install a floor. This work when performed properly consumes a considerable amount of time as well as requiring someone who knows what they are doing to complete it. Our pricing is $79 per hour for handyman services, however when asked for an estimate on a job requiring knowledge such as this we charge fair market pricing. We believed you wanted a more finished and correctly installed attic floor. We would not have been able to do this job for $800 even if it were done in a slap some boards down manner. We do hope you had it done in a manner which hasnt put your or your family's safety or the structural integrity of your home in jeopardy.

Overall I can honestly say this company is the real deal. It's very hard to find honest and trustworhty hanymen (contractors) in this area. We have been burned several times and at this point were over even trying to find a contractor. Thank you John, Walter, Joel, and the painter (sorry, didn't get his name) for a JOB WELLl DONE!! I have already hired them for my stair rails and excited to see the finished product!
Description of Work: I would give these handymen an A+++ if I could! They fixed the support on my staircase that had been damaged and replaced drywall, put in new baseboards and painted the entryway. John, Walter, and Joel were a godsend because we were pretty desparate and needed this work done and completed in a short amount of time. We could not use our stairs and it was a very unsafe condition. I called John and he called me back the same day and came out to the house that day and gave me an estimate. I was amazed at his professionalism and concerns for the job that needed to be done. I was very stressed and he helped by reassuring me they could and would do this job to my complete satisfaction. They did an amazing job and relieved any stress I was feeling at the time by coming in and doing the job they said they would and then some!!

I needed some painting done as well as few odd jobs, so I called the company and spoke with John, who later came out to give me an estimate. The price seemed reasonable and we scheduled the work to be done just a few days later. John, Walter and team were very friendly, organized and efficient. They covered the furniture, put down tarps, and then taped off the area in preparation for painting. They guys worked really hard and put in a long day, but they finished all the inside painting the first day. Because of their efficiency, I was able to put my home back together that evening after they left. On day two, they came back and did some touch-up painting and other odd jobs inside, powerwashed my porch, and then painted it later after it dried. Then Walter assembled my new grill to go on my freshly painted porch! Everything looks great, and I couldn't be happier with all the work they did. I'm already planning the next list of projects, and Walter has given me quotes on some things already. It was a great experience and I've already recommended them to two of my coworkers!
Description of Work: Painted living room, dining room, sunroom & kitchen of my condo, powerwashed and painted the concrete floor of my porch (50-60 sq ft), repaired hinges on a couple of kitchen cabinets, fixed loose door stops, installed new cable outlet, assembled grill.

I called My Hunny Do at 4 PM on Monday and Walter and crew were at my door Tuesday at 930AM. They were a few minutes late, but called me to say they were stuck in traffic.They saw my problem ,which was rotten rake boards on my townhouse. Since I wasn't going up on the roof, Walter took pictures to show me the damage. They got to work right away, and quickly got the job done.Will use again.

Bottom line -- stop looking around and call these guys. John took my call immediately -- even though it was after hours. He understood my unique situation (having to get all the work done in an occupied unit within a very short period of time) immediately and really showed he cared about helping to get it all done, no matter what it took. He volunteered to start on the weekend so we wouldn't lose any time. He promised to have a full team present at all times -- electrician, finish carpenter, painter, etc.. so we could be maximally efficient. He showed up precisely on time and got his team to work on the spot. His partner, Walter also came right on time to survey the electrical work and help organize the job. Joel, their finish carpenter was extremely fast. Their painter was equally efficient and with such perfect technique that he didn't have to waste any time masking and draping -- there wasn't a drop of moulding color on the walls and not a drop of wall paint ont he mouldings when he was done. When I've used contractors who bill by the hour in the past, I've had to stay right on top of them to be sure they are staying busy. These guys were amazing. They moved quickly from item to item on the job list, often making suggestions on ways to get the work done more efficiently or ideas to make the final look even better. I couldn't believe how much they got done each day. They arrived early and stayed late each day with constant awareness of the importance (to me) of getting everything done before I left. They offered helping hands when I was carrying supplies or fixtures into the unit, moving the washer/dryer out of the way -- even though I didn't ask. They took tremendous pride in their work, cared about the smallest details, and really took on the challenge to finish everything in the allotted time as if it were their own goal and not mine. They were clean, respectful, considerate and friendly. Whether it was a big job like putting up 180 lineal feet of crownmoulding, caulking it and painting it in one day, or a little job like fixing a small ding in a plaster wall -- they took it on with gusto. And, they didn't need to be reminded about anything. If I said it once -- they remembered it. In fact -- a couple of times they reminded me of something I wanted done that I had forgotten about. Unlike other contractors I've worked with -- they were not constantly running to Home Depot to get one part. They made complete lists, came prepared for the next day's work -- and virtually never left the job site. As you can probably tell, I can't say enough good things about John and Walter and their team. They are not the cheapest hourly rate workers, but you get twice as much prodcutivity each hour than you'll get with anyone else. Perhaps best of all, I now know I have someone my son can trust to take care of any l problems that may develop in my son's condo in the future-- big or small. I'd feel totally comfortable giving them the key, having them let themselves to do the work and to call if they have any questions or problems. I have total confidence that they'd respond quickly and competently and compassionately should my son ever suffer a "homeowner's emergency." And for a father 3000 iles away -- there's no higher compliment. I feel lucky to have found them on Angie's list. Call them and hire them. (Just don't do it when I need them, please!)
Description of Work: I had only 4 days to do remodeling that reasonably could have taken several weeks with an "average" crew or handyman. I was visiting from out of town and promised my adult son I'd help coordinate his condo remodel so he didn't have to take time off of work. The list included running new electrical, installing new low voltage lighting, tracing the electrical circuitry for hot switches that weren't working, reparing damaged areas of an acoustic ceiling and repainting them, installing base mouldings, installing crown mouldings, installing custom shelving, removing and replacing a built in medicine cabinet with associated wall repairs, interior painting, minor plumbing repairs, patching walls, fixing warped door jams, trimming out newly installed kitchen cabinets and counters and caulking them, replacing heating registers and a few other odds and ends. I needed a team who would commit to showing up on time on the first day I arrived on town and work as hard and as long as needed to get the work done before I left town a few days later. I wanted a team that could do everything from painting to plumbing to finish carpentry to electrical so I wouldn't have to work with multiple contractors. And I needed people who could do all of this while my son was still trying to live in the unit -- protecting his floors, furnishings and posessions, cleaning up after themselves each night so he'd have a place to eat and sleep and bathe when he got back from work each day and who'd respect the building manager's rules and show respect for the neighbors.

After trying to set-up numerous appointments with other handymen, I finally called Hunny Do! Their response time is unbelievably amazing! They called me back the same day and set-up the appointment for the next day. I don’t think words can describe how appreciative I am for their assistance– you have to hire them to see their customer service related work ethic. They are very professional and a great group of people. I will definitely hire them for all future household projects. I even have three potential projects already in mind for them to complete.
Description of Work: Joel and his assistance came by to install new drywall pieces for me. I had a small water leak in my kitchen from the neighbor’s pipe. While they were there, I had them install new toe-kicks for my kitchen cabinets, baseboards, and they painted my pantry. They were very nice, listened to what I needed done, and got right to work. If I could rate them an A+++++ I would.

Both John and Walter showed up. They repaired 3 kitchen cupboards that had broken runners, and fixed a leak from the bathtub faucet. It took them about 2 hours, because they had to go for parts and also we had problems locating and accessing the water main for my elderly house. They did a good job, except for a couple of minor items explained below, and they were friendly and pleasant to work with. There were a couple of issues discovered after they left, one was no cold water for the sink and the other was the tub faucet had the hot and cold switched. John came right back and fixed the kitchen water supply problem, so that caused no inconvenience. Later, Walter came back and fixed the reversed hot/cold problem in the tub. John really took the initiative to ensure everything was to my liking; I only had to call him once to get the two errors fixed.

Walter and his assistants arrived on time, introduced themselves, and commenced work immediately. They removed the old hardware on each door of the gates, and began rebuilding each door. They attached the new doors with new hardware. They were very efficient and cleaned-up the yard area where they worked when they finished. They did a beautiful job. I intend to have them return a replace the fencing around the yard.
Description of Work: They removed an old two-door gate at the back of the property (approx. 6'x6'), and re-built a new two door gate. They provided new hardware (including handles on the doors which we did not have before).

Walter stopped by my house at about 30 minutes later than the scheduled appt. time, saw what was wrong and went out to get everything he would need to fix it. He came back and did a great job in fixing my door in a timely manner.

Joel came on time, very polite, wasted no time, have all the tools and replacement kits needed with him. His supervisor Walter came to bring other materials needed, and checked the attic and the roof. The toilet is fixed nicely and the ceiling looks very good - could not tell that a portion of the ceiling was replaced, even spackled and painted some dents (due to moving furnitures from a year ago) on the nearby drywall. Very responsive when I called them to fix something. Very professional. I would definitely hire them again and recommend them highly to my friends and neighbors.

I have rental property that had a leak in the master bathroom's shower that needed to be repaired. I had a handyman before that had repaired drywall and tile, but there was still a leak. I thought I traced it down to some tile that wasn't seated right and gave John a call (based on the great reviews from Angie's list) to take a look and do an estimate. Due to a miscommunication, Walter showed up and got to work instead of doing an estimate. Walter had traced the leak actually to another problem that was causing the leak. Walter fixed the leak and the job took about 5 hours. I have not seen the workmanship first hand, but the tenants have reported that it looks first rate and that the leak is fixed. John was very apologetic about the miscommunication and made it right by substantially discounting the cost of the job (1 hour labor + materials). I have met many contractors before that are worried about the job "right now" and don't care if a mistake was theirs or not. John showed he stands behind his company's reputation and was more concerned about my future business. I've found a new handyman and will definitely be using John/Walter in the future.

I worked with John, Walter and Joel. In a word, these guys were fantastic. I've dealt with lots of contractors in the past, and these guys are by far the best. I would absolutely use them again. In particular, I note the following: Price I obtained three estimates and My Hunny Do was the lowest. They listened to what I wanted to do, offered suggestions, and then provided an estimate that was fair and easy to understand. Flexibility My Hunny Do was very accomodating in terms of scheduling, and did most of the work during a week I wasn't working at my request. They were very understanding when certain of our materials were late coming on and worked around those issues. Quality These guys were absolutely determined to do the work right. They were detail-oriented and extremely responsive whenever we had any minor "nits." All four bathrooms look great and work great as result. All of these guys are expereinced and skilled in all the critical areas, including plumbing, electrical, tile, drywall, and light construction. John and Walter called frequently to make sure were satisfied with the progress of the work. Punctuality They showed up on time every day and worked full, continuous days until the job was done. Cleanliness They cleaned up every day before they left. They took off their shoes whenever they came into the house per our request. Attitude They were extremely respectful and friendly toward me and my family. They are a pleasure to work with. I would absolutely use these guys again, and strongly recommend them to anyone contemplating a kitchen or bathroom remodel.

My experience with Hunny Do was great. First, they were able, on just a couple days' notice, to come to my house on a day when I was working from home. John, with whom I spoke about scheduling, was very responsive and accommodating. Second, Walter and Joel -- who arrived right on time -- were excellent in the work they did. As you can see, the list of little projects I had was pretty varied, yet they were able to do it all. They did each of the different projects quickly and everything now works great. Third, Walter and Joel were very pleasant. We even worked in a little conversation about politics while they worked, which was fun yet didn't slow them down. Fourth, they were very flexible. When I scheduled them to come out, I mentioned only three projects. Once they were there, however, I thought of two other things I needed fixed. They cheerfully did those additional jobs. Fifth, they were efficient. While one of them ran to a nearby store to purchase a replacement part, the other one continued working. Sixth, their price was very fair: $79/hour before the Angie's List discount. I got all these things fixed for about $160.00, including the cost of the replacement parts. Next, I appreciated that they were both willing and able to do this array of small projects. Given how pleased I was with their work, and learning that they also replace roofs, I asked them for a bid to replace mine. Finally, I appreciated that John gave me a follow-up call to make sure I was happy with the work they'd done. As you can tell, I am happy with Hunny Do. So, these guys are great! If you need things fixed around your home, call Hunny Do.
Description of Work: Re-attach a rain gutter; fix a leaking toilet; fix a living room light/ceiling fan; replace a towel rack; re-hang a laundry room door.

We had hung the drywall in a new bathroom, but knew we were not experts at finishing the walls to make them look really smooth, so we hired John and Walter to do the finish work for us. They were quick to respond, professional on the phone and provided a very reasonable estimate. On the scheduled day, John called to apologize and let us know he was very ill and would not be able to come that day. He called again later to apologize and even offered to come during the weekend instead. Once he was finally well enough to come, the work went quickly (two days of just a few short hours of work to allow the coats to dry in between) and the final product looked great. We were very pleased and intend to hire them again for other projects around the house.
Description of Work: Taped, mudded and sanded two coats of drywall compound in a bathroom.

I recently bought a home that required the back exterior door to be replaced. The door was unsafe and deteriorating. After bad experiences with Home Depot and another contractor, I found Walter through Angie's List. Since I was limited on funds, Walter provided me a couple options on replacing the door. The one we settled on was getting a replacement door versus replacing the entire door frame and door. He took measurements and provided me with door sizes so I could go and purchase the door. Walter would then take the door and size it to the existing frame. Before purchasing the door that I had found, I called Walter to confirm. He responded quickly and we setup the time for him to come and install the door. The entire process from when Walter came to the house to provide an estimate to installing the door only took 10 days (taking into consideration New Year's and my schedule)! This compared to eight (8) weeks that I wasted going through Home Depot and the other contractor. I confirmed our appointment the day before and Walter was there the next morning. His work was precise and he tripled checked to make sure every aspect of the door fit perfectly. In addition to the door, he installed the weather guards, deadbolt, knob, and strike plate. And after he had completed the installation, he cleaned the work area. He did an absolutely great job and I feel much secure with the replacement door! I've seen a couple handymen who do just enough to fix the problem and I much appreciated Walter's work because I can see that he takes pride in completing the job to perfection. Thank you Walter!

Extarordinarily easy to work with. I wasn't sure if i wanted to replace my porch railing with PVC or go back to original wood. These guys brought out BOTH so I could see what I liked best, and after installing the PVC, on one railing and painting it, I decided to go with that. But the ability to go with either and see how it looked before moving on was really appreciated. Great office and great workers. All lights went in (walter had to do some spiffy detective work to find the GFI) smoothly, Painting and woodwork look great.
Description of Work: These guys are great. Walter came out for an estimate on time and looked at an assortment of odd jobs i had--electrical, painting and deck repair. There was another truly odd job i had--rehanging a swing on the deck that was off-kilter and was a 2 man job. Walter just said "wanna do it now?" and fixed the swing on the spot for no cost. 5 minute job to him, but truly impressed me just as a nice thing to do.

What a great experience! I sent an email and Walt was available to come on Friday of Christmas week when I wasn't hearing back from anyone else! I wasn't going to be home, so explained how he could get in the garage to do the garage door opener replacement. Then I left a note asking for an estimate on a few other projects and he called to say he could go ahead while there and get things fixed - including buying the motion detector light that I wanted to have installed. Not only did he go ahead and get all the work done on my list, but he saved me a trip to Lowe's by going and getting the lights that he installed! What a prince!! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. When I got home that afternoon - everything was done and the work was outstanding. I'm very pleased and will continue to reach out to My Hunnydo Handyman when I need more work to be done!
Description of Work: I needed a new garage door opener to be installed as well as a screen door to be replaced and motion detector lights installed.

I called My Hunny Do Handyman and within 2 days Walter came with his crew. He provided me a quote on the spot and started working right away. His crew broke more drywalls, killed the mold, sealed the wall (put new insulation), and painted the walls (all in two days). The cost of this job was $1000. I had minor jobs that I needed to be done: fix lightings, and put a new fans in the bathroom, paint the bathroom ceiling, etc. and he performed the work with no issue (The cost for the extras $300).
Description of Work: I had a leek from the roof that penetrated my children room and caused mold to grow. My previous contractor decided the work was to small so he postponed the work by three weeks and I had to accommodate him for a Saturday only. When he finally decided to come, he opened the wall and found out mold and that a leak from the roof. He left the wall open but didn't provide me with a quote, stating that I needed first to have the roof fixed. After I got the roof fixed, after contacting many roofers, I contacted him but stated that he would not provide me a quote or a time until I got him a picture of the roof. His action forced me to find another contractor. All this time, I had to remove my children from the room because of the mold and the cold.

Walter was great. I called on a Friday afternoon to schedule a time to get an estimate on a new chimney cap. He followed right up and was here as promised the next morning. He was able to fix up the chimney cap and seal up the cracks that very day and was also able to help me replace some washers on my very old shower system. In addition to being prompt, he was very professional and did excellent work. I'll definitely be calling them again.

Our experience with My Hunny Do made us glad that we called them. They came out, and performed the required work on the same day. And, they did so for a very reasonable price. To top it all off, our bathrooms look so much better now. Thank you.
Description of Work: After we bought our house, we noticed a few things that we hadn't before. There was water damage to the bathroom cabinets (in both bathrooms), and the tub was in dire need of recaulking.
