Response from Mr. Handyman of the Fredericksburg Region
I'm sorry that we couldn't respond fast enough for your liking. Although it's not a justification for the delay, my full-time office customer service rep and schedule coordinator was hospitalized and out of work for 10 days, so my office was under-staffed. I did the best I could to keep up with office tasks and Angie's List inquiries while also managing the field work to keep my four techs/vans actively satisfying the customers who already were on the schedule. Our goal is to have everything caught up by mid-week (Oct 25th). Sincerely, Al Starck, President

Description of Work: They had to replace a corner kitchen cabinet and when it came in the shade of the stain was remarkably noticeable and much lighter than the original cabinets. Very disappointed in that. I thought they were high on their price.

Response from Mr. Handyman of the Fredericksburg Region
Dear Member, I'm sorry that you are not satisfied. We were called out to investigate a severely water-damage corner kitchen cabinet. We removed the cabinet and discovered that the toilet wax ring in the bathroom above had failed, leaving a toxic mix of sewage and black mold on the cabinet top and all surrounding drywall. To remove the cabinet, all the crown molding had to be taken down as well as an adjoining cabinet. The drywall on the walls and ceiling had to be replaced after it dried out. We matched the oak finish on the over 20-year-old cabinet as best we could. Unfortunately, with the varying density and wood grains in oak, the exact color in the finished product does sometime vary from the finish samples manufactures provide, even within the same cabinet order. Considering that the cabinet doors are full overlay doors, less than a 1/2" of wood shows and the color actually was not far off from the color variations on other cabinets. The total cost of the job actually came to $821, which included all labor, materials, and multiple trips to the job site. We always strive to do jobs properly and within what customers budget. Sincerely, Al Starck, President

Response from Mr. Handyman of the Fredericksburg Region
Thank you for writing the review. The technician ran into some unexpected structural conditions with framing the opening when installing the ladder, which would have been better dealt with had he thought to call the office for assistance from another tech. That being the case, I thought it fair to issue a refund for some of the time wasted with the inefficiencies of going it alone. Al Starck, President

The repairman arrived on time, assessed the job, and went over the quote that they had given us over the phone. The repairman performed the repair and found more wood rot, which needed more materials. He showed us the problem and discussed how he would repair it. He acquired more wood, repaired the rot and then cleaned up thoroughly.

The tech was on time. He worked non-stop and cleaned up. I was very impressed and will use this service again. They charge by an hourly rate, so if they don't get around to everything, you are not charged.

I gave the handyman a call and explained to them my problem. They told me that they could get someone out to take a look and offer me a free estimate. They explained the process to me and sent me an email with information on their billing process, rates and warranty. They arrived as planned (right on time) and the handyman came to door and introduced himself and let me explain the problem as I seen it. He then came into my home (even placed shoe protectors over his shoes so that he wouldn't track any dirt inside) and took a look at my window inside and out. He climbed up on his ladder and told me that the problem looked obvious. The window installers apparently didn't apply the proper size vinyl window trim and did a poor job caulking it. We rescheduled a day so that he could do the work and he came as scheduled to get it done. It took less than the estimated time he estimated so I had him install a ceiling fan for me while he was there. Mr. Handyman has a two (2) hour minimum billing rate for the initial work so that's why I asked him to work on my ceiling fan, also because I had a $25 coupon that was good for a discount off a two (2) hour job. Mr. Handyman did a great job and even cleaned up the area that he was working on. I kept an eye on the window during the next few rains and it appeared that my window leak was taken care of; however, I recently noticed a small drip starting again. I was concerned that I'd have to pay to get them back out again but they came back out and checked the leak again and applied a more durable caulk to stop the leak. The great thing was that they did this for me at no additional charge (covered under their warranty policy). I'm waiting for the next heavy rain to see if the problem was completely fixed because I need them to come back and take care of the interior caulk and paint damage that was previously caused, but I really appreciate the work that they did for me and the professionalism that they show. I feel that their rates were fair and I didn't get the feeling that I was being taken advantage of or overcharged.
Description of Work: I was experiencing a leak in one of my foyer windows every time we got a heavy rain. The water would drip through a corner of the window frame or stream through at a good rate depending on how hard it was raining. I had called the builders (Atlantic Builders) and they didn't offer any help, or ever called me back. I also called another window repair service and they came out to take a look but told me that they didn't deal with leaks, only window replacement, so I was getting a little desperate. I did finally get a hold of another handyman; however, he wanted to charge me a four (4) hour minimum just to come out and take a look. It was by chance that I stumbled across the handyman add in one of the advertisement magazines that I received in the mail.
