I called any for an estimate which he gave me over the phone without ever seeing my situation. He said that he would replace my wooden pull down stairway with an aluminum one. Four days later he showed up and replaced my stairway. He also removed a broken door in my basement fruit cellar. The price was as agreed to in the phone conversation. Andy cleaned up after the work was completed. I am very pleased with the work that was done. I have contracted with Andy to have the garage roof replaced next. I look forward to having Andy to more work for us.

I called Andy Zahn to obtain information if he would remove the old storm door and install a new storm door. He said it could be done. I purchased a door from a home improvement store. I was not in a hurry to have the door installed. 6 days after I talked to Andy he called and said he had a opening could he install the new door. I said ok. Andy picked up the door at the home improvement store. Andy did the job in about 2 hours. It was done to my satisfaction.

I am very satisfied with the work performed. I called Andy about a week ago and we only had contact on the phone. Andy quoted me a price on the phone without seeing the work location. We agreed on a date. He was on time and ready to go. I called him while I was at work and asked for estimates on three other projects. He said we might be seeing more of each other. After seeing his estimate for a tear off and reshinlge of my garage, I just notified him that I want him to do that task next.
Description of Work: Replaced a broken pull down attic stairway. Removed broken wood stairway and hauled away. Framed and placed a new aluminum pull down stairway. Cleaned up when they finished.

Andy's partner Patrick came to look at the job and I received a quote the next day along with an estimated time they could do the job and how long it would take. The job was started exactly when they said they could do it, they stuck to their price, and it took them only one day longer to get the job done due to weather related delays. I was extremely impressed by their honesty, integrity, and professionalism. They were very neat and clean, always cleaned up at night. I paid more money than what my other quotes were but it was worth the extra amount to be able to trust them and not have any hassles. I would hire them again without hesitation.
Description of Work: Andy painted and installed 9 combination storm/screen windows. He also repaired damage done to the window sills and moldings where necessary by replacing the rotted wood and/or patching the areas. He replaced all of the brick molding around the service door to the garage as well.

Andy and Pat were both here for about 1/2 an hour. They were kind, pleasant and cheap. I would hire them in a pair of seconds and in fact I will be. They do much more than just plumbing work!
Description of Work: I hired them to clean my drains and find out why it was plugging up. They came in and took it apart. They found one problem where it was installed incorrectly and the pitch was wrong. They found nothing to be clogging my drains and suggested I call someone for that. They helped me with finding a drain cleaner too, which was so nice.

Plumber price tags were ridiculously high, asked for handymen ratings. Andy called back, was very timely. Called before he came, very professional. He and his partner (Pat) looked at the pipes, found the problem. Informed me that pipe needed to be routed out where he couldn't get to it. Charged me $10. The drain is a dual drain leading to one connector, he showed me that the part was in at the wrong angle. He corrected the angle.
Description of Work: Drain was running slow. Was backing up in the stationary tubs.

We have hired Andy for many jobs over the last several years and are very pleased with the quality of his work. Once he starts a job, he gets it done in the amount of time promised. However, he is very busy and it is very difficult to get him to return calls and schedule a date to do the work. We sometimes have to call three or four times. We are persistent because we know he will do a good job and know that a good handyman is hard to find. The work on the master bathroom was done in 1.5 weeks. The new shower is smaller than the old one because there was more space than anticipated once the original walls were removed. A shower base that exactly fit the space was not available. Instead, Andy designed the new stall so that it would feel larger by bringing the wall straight up from the base and then creating a shelf so that the top half of the back wall of the shower is deeper. The solution also provided a shelf for shampoo.
Description of Work: 1. Renovated the master bathroom - installed new faucet in bathroom sink, new towel rods and toilet paper holder, new toilet, painted the walls, removed old tile, mesh and plaster from the shower, put in one piece shower base, installed sheetrock, re-tiled the walls and installed new shower door. Andy hired a plumber to install the drain. He also put a new trap in the downstairs bathroom under the drain, so that part of the ceiling would not have to be removed if there is a future problem. 2. Painted hall bath, second floor hallway and one wall in the living room. Replaced ceiling fan remote control. 3. Refinished cabinet doors under kitchen sink. Installed new door knobs on two closet doors. Built sturdy storage shelves in the basement. Installed latches on the top of doors to the sunroom to keep the door from opening at the top.

I scheduled an appointment with this provider on a Thursday at 9:00. At 9:20 they hadn't showed up yet, so I tried to contact them to find out where they were. No one answered the phone. At 10:00 they still hadn't shown up, so I contacted them again and informed them at that point to not worry about coming out, that I needed to get to work. They were a no call no show and I haven't heard anything from them since.
Description of Work: I contacted this company in regards to getting an estimate for various tasks around my mobile home. The floors, doors and windows all needed to be looked at.

I checked the list this morning and found Zahn' Home Repair & Improvement. I searched by rating, looking for the most qualified 'handyman' with the best rating/feedback. I called, received a voice mail, and described my services needed. Within an hour, Andy Zahn returned my call. He had a cancellation and was available to come to my home to review the work. He arrived 30 minutes later, surveyed the work to be done, gave me a reasonable quote, and performed the work to my satisfaction immediately. Andy is a honest young man who does quality work. The total job took about one hour.
Description of Work: They replaced two kitchen ceiling lights with new pendant lights.

The cost is adequate, it was not low. He painted the bricks with a stain to make them the correct color. He had some innovative ideas that helped. There was one thing I did not care for and he returned promptly to correct the problem. He gives good suggestions and changed things that I was not particularly happy with.
Description of Work: They installed a board over the porch to make it sturdier, added new stairs and railing. He also did some tuck pointing.

Tried contacting Company via e-mail to get bid on Redoing a Bathroom. No response. Then called via phone and set up date/time to get estimate. He missed it. Rescheduled and he showed up and apologized for forgetting it. Did a preliminary walk-thru and was to send the message by the end of the next week (at which time he would be going on vacation). Didn't get estimate. Multiple phone calls made with no response. Not even a "I got your message and will get back to you".
Description of Work: No work was performed by him, however, it was done by AB & K who was responsive.

Andy has a great personality and is pleasant. He knows a lot about what he does. He is very hard to get a hold of and unfortunately, does not get back to us.
Description of Work: Andy did some work for us on the bathroom of a rental property a while ago and did an excellent job. He is very personable and a hard worker and we trust him. We called him for a bathroom remodel for our home and had trouble getting him to return our calls. He finally did come and gave us an idea of what it would cost and said he could do it in six months, which was fine with us. He said he would send us a written estimate, but we didn't hear from him. When we called him again he said he would email the estimate, but we never received it; it has been many months. We are disappointed because our first experience was such a good one and we really trusted him to do a good job. We think that, because of the high quality of his work he has a lot of work now but we were not in a hurry to have the work done. We would like to hire him again but have given up trying, I guess he doesn't need the work!
