I put an inquiry into the website and they responded right away. Loren (owner) came over within a few days to do a walk-through estimate. He was on time (even early) and seemed nice enough, but really didn't offer anything to the conversation except to say "uh-huh, we can do that" over and over. (that's fine, but a little input is always nice) They physically mailed it to me so it took a little longer (a bit old school, but ok, no problem). Then I looked at the estimate. HOLY MOLY. To paint our bedroom (16x14, no patching, no ceiling) they estimate $640? To install a bedroom door is estimated at $350? NOTE: This is all labor only - not materials. So my $69 bedroom door is going to be five times that to install?! Strangest part is that at the bottom of the estimate it says labor is $63 per man our plus 15% profit. OK...so based on that, it's going to take 5 hours to hang one bedroom door? To run a cable wire under my carpet is $120 (so that apparently it takes almost 2 hours to run a cable 14 feet). And to hang drapes over 2 windows it's going to cost $350. So I guess screwing in the two rods will take 5 hours too? Not impressed. No thanks. I don't mind paying a reasonable amount for someone to do the work. This is not reasonable at all. I gave them a "C" overall because I can not speak to their quality of work and I don't want it to be unfair for that, but definitely an "F" for pricing.
Description of Work: Came to house and did estimate on work needed in the master bedroom. Specifically: Paint the room, hang 2 curtain rods, run cable under carpet and replace closet door and bedroom entry door.

This was 5 months ago so I don't remember in detail, but I know I was very happy with the quality of the work done. He had supplies in his truck for almost everything. I think I recall running to ACE Hardware (a short local trip) for some small item so he could keep working while I got the part. (I had offered to do this.) I would definitely hire him again for any future handyman needs.
Description of Work: I'm sorry I don't remember the exact cost. Repaired rails for a wooden desk drawer Fixed patio screen that wouldn't slide Replaced screen mesh on patio screen door Fixed silverware drawer that wouldn't slide smoothly Fixed the dryer venting that had come loose from the location where it vents to the outside. I know there was more, but I can't remember because it was 5 months ago.

It was great. As the handyman started I ran and got some needed supplies to complete the job (that I hadn't thought of). He was able to complete what I wanted and was able to stay an extra hour (with my approval) to complete the job, so it was not left un-done.

I was impressed with the quick response to the email I submitted on the Fix'm website. The work was scheduled to meet my request for completion by August 10. Chris arrived promptly. I was very impressed with his knowledge of all of the types of work needed and with the professional way he went about completing the work.
Description of Work: Water damage repairs due to sink overflow - replace carpet pad, relay carpet, install trim and repair/install cabinet drawers. Also repace insulation and repair ceiling drywall. This is the third time we have used Fix'm services. Each time we were impressed with the quality work and the expertise and professionalism of the entire Fix'm team!

We were so pleased with the work done. Neither my husband nor I are handy, and we had a list of small things that we had let go for some time. The person who came was competent, pleasant and moved quickly from job to job, even doing other things along the way that he noticed. We will definitely call this company again when our to do list grows again.

Chris arrived on time and installed the first simple storm door on the side of the garage. The second Larson storm door was a cmplex high security door with three dead bolt locks which took extra time to install. Chris had never installed this type of door before, and did an excellent job. Total time was five (5) hours.

They are very reasonable. They are good workers. For gutter cleaning, they charged under a $100 or $100. For the installation because it involved an electrician from an electrical contractor plus his labor guy, it was about a $1000 for the installation for the appliances. He was really good.
Description of Work: I use Fix'm Home Repairs LLC when I do need things fixed. They have cleaned gutters and they have installed appliances. The last time they came out they cleaned my dryer vents. Then last year they installed a new double wall oven and new cook top. They removed the old appliances and put the new ones in. In the past they also cleaned my gutters.

Tom from Fix'm Home Repairs came within the time (one hour) that was estimated when the job was scheduled. He evaluated and discussed the repair with me. He picked out the materials needed for the repair from a local business. He did the fascia replacement and then picked-up the old fascia taken off the house. From arrival to finish the elapsed time was about 1.25 hr. I was very satisfied with this repair experience.

John arrived on 5/3/12 promptly and install the flower boxes in about 45 min. Than the was going to change the faucets in master bath, but said that I need plumber, he call his friend, but the work will not be done for couple of weeks. I have taken the day off from work to have the small jobs done and was very disappointed that I will need to take another vacation day to complete the work. It is also very discouraging that I have not received the promised bids for the other work from Loran.
Description of Work: I have purchased a capon for 2 hours for handyman work. The owner come out and I had 3 project on my list.For the capon I wanted to have 2 window flower boxes attached to house and replace 2 faucets in bathroom. Loran told me that the capon would cover that. The other projects were replacing counter top in Master bathroom and last one to tile floor, replace toilet and faucet in gust bathroom. Loran told me he will e-mail me an estimates. I am still waiting.

Member, I am sorry we were unable to perform your plumbing repairs. Your faucet fittings were corroded together and John did not feel comfortable forcing them apart. Although we know this was inconvenient for you to take off work again, he felt it was better to call our plumber rather than risk damage to your pipes and faucets. Regarding your estimate for other work, Loren was waiting for you to provide him with information about the scope of the work before sending you something. If you still wish for us to provide an estimate, please contact us with that information. We apologize if we failed to communicate properly with you about these issues. This is a good reminder for us to try harder in that regard.

I had some vertical, out swinging windows that weren't closing well or sealing. It looked like the windows had just sagged or the house had shifted and they no longer lined up, so I thought I would be looking at replacing the windows. I had two handymen companies take a look. The other company simply confirmed my initial suspicions and said my best bet was to seal them up and just not open the windows that weren't currently lined up properly. The Mike from Fix'm came and after some more detailed inspection, he figured out that the window sashes had somehow become unsealed from the window panes and were simply sagging a bit. Mike and Tom then came out, used some shims to push the sashes back into the correct position, and then re-glued the sashes to the glass. For $500, my windows are like new. Awesome - just awesome.
