Milwaukee Home Services

My husband and I cannot say enough good things about how helpful John was. He was able to see what needed to be done and what didn't need to be done, and the easiest way to do them. His charges were much less than the other person we talked to. My sister had lived here well over 20 years and there were many things that needed to be fixed. John spent most of 2 days here. We are ready for the photographer!

It went beautifully. I can't express my gratitude enough. I had spoken to several contractors - but I didn't have a genuine level of confidence that the job would turn out very well. Also, the details that went into this project were not for an amateur. Everything was completed on time and with a level of excellence that is second to none. My neighbors have complimented me on the job.

After reading all the good reviews on Angie's List, I was disappointed that I didn't receive a return call from Milwaukee Home Services. I left a voicemail message, and I have not heard anything from them. I have hired someone else.

The job was beast, but Milwaukee Home Services did a great job. Much time was spent ensuring the job was done with quality.

John was highly recommended by a friend and I was not disappointed in his service. He was prompt, courtious , professional and his work was first rate. I have absolutely no complaints. I would certainly use Milwaukee Home Services again.

All of the work completed was top notch! John pays incredible attention to detail and goes the extra mile to ensure the job is done right, done well and on time. For example, the interior door required lowering the door frame and upper casing. Because the original wall was textured plaster, he brought textured paint for the finishing touches! Before he started, John explained the work/process he was going to use and why, potential costs, and was happy to answer our questions and concerns. He was punctual (he let us know what time we could expect him each day) and considerate of our property and pets. He cleaned up each of the work areas, and sealed off those that could expose our parrot to dust/debris or fumes. He was also transparent about a hiccup with the interior door (vendor had supplied the wrong size) and the delay it would have on our project. The price was reasonable given the quality of parts/supplies and craftsmanship. He provided an upfront estimate, and made us aware of changes as the projects continued. At the end, he walked through an itemized list of charges. Excellent customer care, service and work overall!

The wall looks like great. He removed the piping, capped the exterior pipe, insulated, dry walled and patched the area. John is a hard worker with great skills. He can fix anything inside and outside of your house. I'm having him coming back next month for another project.

John was very easy to work with. Responded promptly and was able to come out, give me an estimate, and fix it in the same day. I would call them again if I had another job that needed to be done around the house.

Did a good job repairing about 12 areas of dry wall holes, wrinkles, and cracks; installed a new water heater and replaced itsfaulty venting system; installed new water faucet up to code requirements; removed and replaced kitchen light fixture; removed broken shower door and replaced with a better and more attractive door. He had some struggles with the water heater venting, but continued working on it until is was up to code and and there was NO leaking. John is very conscientious and a hard worker. Will definitely use him again and again.

The service was provided as requested.

the $69.00 was taken out of my checking account 4/15/14. We have talked and he is still trying to fit me into his schedule. If this goes on for another week I will ask for my money back. I'm not sure he will be able to put up a ceiling fan . He sounded unsure. He finally came but was unable to put up a ceiling fan. He balanced my washing machine and a few other odd jobs.

The service provider never reached out to me to schedule the work so I did not end up using their services.

We had some scheduling problems, but he did come out and do the work to my satisfaction. He is cooperative to work with.

My porch looks awesome. Quality of work was excellent. I have had neighbors and strangers comment on how great it looks and what an outstanding job was done! Some of these people work in this business and the we're impressed! John worked with me every step of the way and was very professional and willing to make changes when I changed the plan. I also needed to have the front of the house resided and John found siding to match my existing siding which has faded over the years so I didn't need to reside the whole house. This saved me significant money. John handled every detail of this job and I could not be more pleased. He truly loves his work and providing quality at a reasonable price. Simply put - just outstanding! I wish I could post pictures here to do the job justice.

It turned out great. The price was right. He did what he said he was going to do and when he said he would.

He seemed to have had too many deals sold for him to complete and asked if we could wait several weeks for service which was fine, but we never heard from him for service and eventually I forgot about the deal. I cancelled the Big Deal for a refund.

John was prompt, polite, knowledgeable and did a lot in the time he was there. I hope to have him back in the future.

The work was done well and he was professional. Because my home being older he ran into a small issue but it did not take long to come up with a resolution. Matter of minutes. Everything worked out just fine and my son was very happy with his new light..will hire again. Thank you.

John did a great job with the curtain rods and pictures. He was professional, tidy, and respectful of my home. He's also not a smoker, so I did not have to deal with third hand smoke coming into the house. I have very old (plaster) walls, and the curtains and curtain rods that I wanted to use were very heavy and required some extra care. I noticed the negative reviews regarding the Angie's List coupons, but those reviews were not relevant to me since I was not trying to use any coupons. (In my opinion, it seems like this was a problem stemming from AL and the number of coupons they issued.) I would absolutely call Milwaukee Home Services in the future.

John was on time, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He provided some screws that were of a higher quality than the ones included in the rod packages. We did have a mix-up in dates, but my job wasn't urgent and I did not mind at all. I would definitely recommend John to others who need a bit of help with their homes and I would use him again. Thank you, Angie's List.

I ended up calling them after a couple of months of waiting. When I spoke with the owner he indicated he would call me back when he was done with a current project. I haven't heard back from them since.

It was okay. He put up a couple of cabinets in the garage. We already had the cabinets. He said he couldn't find the studs and spent a lot of time just hanging 2 cabinets. He also put a strip on in the kitchen. I feel like he should have done more work for those 2 hours. He seemed to be a good guy & did a good job overall.

This handyman was overwhelmed with response to his Angie's List ad, so had trouble scheduling in a timely way. Nevertheless, he always responded to emails, and after a number of weeks (and one cancellation on my part, we did finally agree on a date. He arrived in the approximate time frame and put up my heavy mirror with help from a neighbor. He had trouble finding studs with any tools at hand, and seemed inexperienced at re-wiring the mirror in a safe way. With hit & miss approach, and one "re-do" for centering as requested, he succeeded. There are a lot of holes in the wall, but they are covered by the mirror. He installed bathroom floating shelves, with some complaints about the quality of screws being inferior (a Menard's product) - 2 broke in the process. He did not offer to replace them and told me one shelf would not be removeable without a lot of effort, should I want to when painting the walls. Overall,it took 2 hours - a bargain at the special rate - though he got a little less done than I hoped. The effort it took and aggravation expressed by this handyman was a bit over the top for a professional. He very kindly did not charge me for some incidentals (new bolts for hanging mirror).

I purchased the deal back in April. On the 24th He emailed saying Angie's List sold double and he was way behind and I should wait till after May 16th. He just doesnt answer Calls or emails. He is very unresponsive.

I bought an Angie's List Deal of the Day for 2 hours worth of Handyman services. The handy man never got in touch with me. I reached out to him twice. He was polite and apologetic on the phone and told me Angie's List oversold his service. He said they sold twice the number they were supposed to so he was very behind schedule. I was understanding and agreed he could get back to me in late July to schedule our service, but twice I never heard back from him and it's now September.... we just hired someone else to do the handyman jobs we had hoped to get done in April....
