It went fairly well. He had to come back and re-do one of the things that he had fixed. It was economical. I think it was reasonable. He was punctual and completed the work in good time. They are local and he does a lot of work in our community.

Larry returned my call right away and we scheduled an appointment for the following week. He arrived with an assistant, right on time. It took him just a few minutes to assess the problem - they had installed it too close to the actual front door. He was off to buy supplies and returned in a short while to take down and re-hang the storm door. The hinge that closes the door on the top was, at that point, hanging off so I assumed he'd need to replace it. I mentioned this to him thinking that he would need to buy a new one while he was picking up supplies. No problem, he said, we can fix that with what we have :-). They finished the job in an hour or two, were very professional and did a beautiful job. The door closes perfectly every time - in fact, we'd gotten so used to a door that "hangs" open it occasionally whacks me from behind because it closes so quickly. This is a good problem to have. We just have to get used to a door that works the way it is supposed to! I would, and will, call Larry again for any household "fix-it" jobs. I highly recommend him!! Thanks Larry!
Description of Work: We have a storm door that we bought from Home Depot years ago - HD reps installed it and told us at the time that our front door was not a standard size so adjustments needed to be made to accommodate the door. It was not hung correctly, never was able to close completely and was a disaster. We finally had decided to either repair it or take the door down. I called Larry to ask him to take a look to see what he could do.

He fished cable through the walls and crawl space and installed railing in the garage. Cleaned up all drywall and made it all look like it was built with the home. Arrived on time and was done within two hours. Reinstalled all of the insulation and ensure everything was secured. Great job and will use his services again.

I contacted Larry through Angie's List email on 12/9 and he responded within a couple hours. He contacted me by phone on 12/10 to set up an appointment and came out on 12/11 to provide an estimate. I appreciated Larry's quick response and friendliness but decided to go with another company that have a lower price quote. We are keeping Larry in mind for future improvements!

Communication prior to the job was via email and the scheduling was easy. The guys arrived on time and got right to work. Larry mentioned that he had worked in a door shop for many years and it showed. He is clearly an expert door hanger. The previous bathroom door never closed correctly. It was gappy and the latch didn't catch right. The new door works perfectly. Larry had to make several adjustments to make this so, but he just kept at it until it was right. The top of the bedroom door was scraping the door jam so I thought it had to be trimmed, but he fixed it by repositioning the hinges. Overall I was very pleased with the work and will contact Larry again for other jobs.
Description of Work: Replaced bathroom door and hinges. I provided the materials: a non-bored hollow door and and 3 hinges. The hinges on a bedroom door were repositioned.

Larry arrived on time and got right to work. He was very attentive to what we wanted and did very good work. Only downside is he can be hard to reach on the phone, which may be because he is on the job a lot. Will definitely get him to do more work in the future.

I called Larry twice before getting a call back and after two scheduled visits had to be cancelled (one on my account and one on his), he came on 02/21/13 and did the job. The insulation had not fallen down as I had thought, but the trap door was in need of repair. He sanded and painted the trap door. He charges $50.00 an hour which I thought was outrageous. He charged $10.00 for a little bit of paint and sandpaper. He did an adequate job but I will not use him again due to the price. I felt obligated to let him do the work since he was here. I should have asked him on the phone what he charged, so that was negligence on my part.
Description of Work: I had noticed some insulation on the ground under my house and the trap door was in need of repair or replacement. He went under the house and found the insulation was intact (the insulation had been there from installation of my heat pump. He sanded and painted the trap door.

First of all, I must say thatLarry was very punctional. When he said he was would be here at 11:00, the door bell rang at exactl!!11:00 !!! He was very polite with vast knowledge in many areas. We initially called Mr. White to repair the extrior trim of an octagon stained glass window frame. When the job was completed, the window looked better than it ever has at a very minimal price. While he was here, we had him check a small water leak under the sink. He tightened several connections at no charge which ceased all further leaking. Then we had a small of the extrior door entry which needed some paint. He agreed to complete this at a very reasonable price. He did not simply paint, he was sure to sand the wood first and then properly paint. Finally, we asked if he could check the water faucet in the bath tub as it has been leaking for a while. He told us the falucet seemed fine, it just needed a naw washer. He went to Lowe's, picked up and installed the washer and then the faucet orked like new. Overall, we have found the only handyman we will ever need. WILL USE AGAIN AND AGAIN !!!

We were seeking a creative solution to give the entrance to our kitchen a more open effect without doing an demolition. Larry came in and gave an accurate quote to widen a doorway. We discussed other ideas and dreams that I had and Larry help me stay realistic in what was reasonable to spend on my 30 year old 1,800 sq ft home. I appreciated that he wasn't out to get me to spend as much money as I could. He also made a suggestion of replacing a couple of doorknobs that protruded into the opening with smaller knobs and a magnetic catch. This opened up the area by 4+ inches. He widened the door but at our request left it unpainted. He also brought in a sheetrock contractor to patch a 12" square opening from a leak repair in our textured ceiling; the repair was a perfect match. We were very pleased.
Description of Work: Larry came in to widen a doorway for us. We appreciated his creative solution to our situation and his willingness to help in evaluating needs and wants vs. value. We also used Larry to get an excellent sheetrock repair person.

The first time I called Larry, he actually showed up the same day to give me an estimate. The price was reasonable. The team was always there exactly when they said they would be. I am delighted with the quality of all the work that was done. They were extremely professional. I will definitely recommend this company to any of my friends who need work done on their home. As a matter of fact, I have already recommended Larry to quite a few people. Excellent work!

He has done some staircase job in my home for which he put an anchor. I really like his job. They discuss the things before starting and they did an excellent job. The price is really excellent. The services were great, they did a four hour job and cleaned up the area. His response is good, when I called him, he was right on the phone. Their punctuality is great. They are very professional in discussing things and explaining it.

Called Larry to come and give me an estimate for installation of pull-down attic stairs. Larry came when he said he would and called a few days later with the estimate for three different options on stairs. We set up a date for installation, Larry came on time and within 4 hours I had stairs to my attic space. He and his partner were very polite and they cleaned up after themselves very nicely. The price for the job was very reasonable. I would definitely have this gentleman back the next time I need work done.
Description of Work: installed attic pull down stairs. had to enlarge opening and do some re-framing before installing metal stairs. after putting in stairs he framed the opening with new molding.

We have been extremely pleased with his quality of work, his professionalism and how quickly he gets the job done at a reasonable price. Some of the projects we purchased the necessary items ourselves after he gave us a list of what we needed to get and some we let Larry purchase and he provided us with a receipt. We will continue to use Larry in future projects that arise at our home. We are glad we found him on Angie's list.
Description of Work: He installed new attic stairs for us, has put up vinyl siding trim on our outside shed around the door after replacing the rotten wood trim that was there as well as install a new dryer tube running from the dryer under our house to the outside. We also had him clean out the old caulk and re- caulk the bathroom tub and floor area.

Awesome work, When I called him the next day because some rain had caused some issues with his paint job, he showed up with a few hours and made it right, you can't even tell where the old and new stuff is, it is blended in very well. It was nice to meet his better half and son that day to. Larry will definitely be a rehire here, he is a good man, and if he can't do it himself, he has access to people who can and will coordinate them for you.
Description of Work: Squirrel had eaten through the Gutter and Fascia plate into my attic. He removed my old gutter replaced the Fascia board that was water damaged, and removed the Squirrel nest after the squirrel and him had a not so friendly meeting in the gutter. :) He also pointed out some water damage to some siding on my house. He showed up with help on time replaced all items in the time allotted and arranged for a new gutter and downspouts on a day picked by us.

Larry did a great job and I'm appreciative of the work he did. We set a date and time for him to do the work and he was here on time - we went over the things that needed fixing and he worked most of the day to complete all of these things. The work was done well and everything looks great. He did variety of things here that had added up after a period of time and to have it fixed all in the same day was a great relief. He is a conscientious worker and pleasant to work with. Will call him again if I have other repairs.
Description of Work: hung 4 ceiling fans (moved 2 existing upstairs, installed 2 new downstairs) fixed hand rail going upstairs - had been loose for years! worked on luver door fix put in a new wax ring on leaking toilet and adjusted to make it better than before did some caulking/spackling work around bathtub checked my attic to make sure everything is OK put new batteries in all my fire alarms (about 6 or 7) and got that working again checked out my gas fireplace

We are getting the step down ladder because we want a specific one. His quote was a little bit on the vague side but he said there were so many things on there that we could call him and discuss it. He actually apologized for it being vague. He said he wasn't trying to be that way but there are so many things involved. We have gotten two quotes and we are going to get one more estimate before we have anybody do the work. We are actually going to use him Monday to put the step down ladder to the attic. At that time we are going to go into a little more depth on what we are looking for with the doors. The other quote we got was more detailed and more formal. Larry is a little more vague but I think that is the way he does things. He does everything very simple.
Description of Work: We got an estimate from Larry's Home Improvements and Repairs to do the bathroom, doors and a step down ladder for the ceiling.
