Response from myHandypro
Hi [Member Name Removed], couldn’t have done it without your help, seemed improbable but we did it. We are Still looking for [Member Information Removed] materials for [Member Information Removed] kitchen lighting. James
I am so very glad that we chose James to do the work in our home. He is extremely knowledgable about such a wide range of services, and I intend to contract with him to do more work for us in the future. I found James to be very responsive, even though our initial contact was over the holidays! When he came out to meet with us the first time, he had great ideas, was very thorough in his evaluation, and took detailed notes. James was punctual, timely in getting our work done, thoughtful and respectful, and very nice to have in our home. He was careful to clean up as work was completed. I feel that his fees were very fair and he explained them clearly. I can't wait to get my tax refund so that we can arrange for James to return to do some of our more discretionary work. I recommend him and myhandypro without reservation.
Description of Work: Sealed off all of our windows to keep cold air out. Replaced worn out weather strip on bottom of front door. Replaced and installed new smoke detectors and CO2 detectors throughout house. Moved three air conditioners from upstairs to basement. Hung two paintings in living room. Installed light in coat closet. Evaluated needs for outside motion sensor lights.

James and his assistant Bob arrived right on schedule, looked at the plans and pile of parts on the floor and estimated they would need about three hours to complete the job. They took great care with the installation and were done right when they said they would be. I was so impressed with how the job went I now have them working on various other jobs around the house that we either lack the skill or time to get to. I am very happy to have found them!
Description of Work: I purchased a custom made Murphy Bed and matching built-in desk that required assembly and installation. The walls in our house are plaster on plasterboard so we didn't trust ourselves enough to do the installation ourselves, not to mention that the items were costly ($5000) so we wanted it done right.

We had a 4-4:30 appointment. They called at 4:15 to tell us the would be about 45 minutes late. I am glad they called in advance. Two guys came to do the job. They arrived and promptly pulled the stove away from the wall. They then asked for a rag so they could clean the side of the stove we could not normally reach. They also cleaned the floor under the stove. They hooked up the stove and it worked great. My wife then asked them about our screen door. The screen was torn. No one we knew could figure out how to remove the screen from the door to get it fixed. They took the door apart removed the screen and told her they would get it fixed ( not sure if they were fixing it themselves or subcontracting it out) . They told my wife they would be back next week and reinstall the screen in the door. They were hands down the most professional, over the top , most respectful provider that we have hired in Milwaukee. We will use them again!!!!
Description of Work: The provider did two jobs- they hooked up a gas stove to the wall, They took apart our screen door ( no one in the condominium complex knew how) and took the screen for repair. They will replace it in its in door next week.

He was excellent. He knew exactly what I needed to support the new TV and explained everything in detail. He was on time and very professional. After installing the supports, I asked if he could install a couple towel bars, ( I am a stroke survivor and am unable to grip anything with my left hand), and he did a great job. He put the bars exactly where I wanted and YES, they are level!! I will definitely use James for my next project--we went over my list before he left and he suggested what to purchase and products that would last. I am so happy that I found James and MyHandyPro and would refer them to anyone looking for quality work.

James provided information that helped me solve the problem of connecting my rain barrel. Although I didn't have need of his services, I would hire him for future projects because of his knowledge, friendly communication, & quick response time to all my questions.
Description of Work: James went above & beyond with an estimate for connecting a rain barrel to my garage gutters. Where I wanted to place the barrel caused problems with pitching the gutters.James researched & found information about using a diverter that I hadn't known about. In the end, we determined that I could not put the rain barrel where I wanted due to the configuration of doors, etc.

Once we had a date, the work was done. We are very pleased with the work done.
James was punctual and very knowledgeable on what we needed done. Since the house is relatively "new", he felt he would be able to heat/peel the vinyl away from the area so that we would not need to replace it. He was right and we saved the cost of the flooring immediately. Once he had the floor opened, he cut out the failed flooring, reinforced the floor around the toilet, put in new flooring, re-glued the vinyl floor and replaced the toilet. He did it all for under 600 dollars or roughly a third of what his initial quote was. He could easily have charged the $800 - 900 he had quoted originally, but said that that wasn't a fair thing to do. This is the only guy I'm going to from know on for home repairs or remodeling. If I could have rated him an "A+", I would have in a heartbeat Thanks again James!
Description of Work: We had a sub-floor failure in the upstairs bathroom that caused a toilet leak (down through the living room ceiling). We needed at least a section of the floor reinforced and replaced, the vinyl removed/replaced and the toilet re-plumbed. The quotes I received for the job varied from $1800 to $2500, and that didn't include vinyl replacement. James bid came in at $800-$900 for the carpentry work and another $600 - $700 for the vinyl work. He was willing to take up his weekend to get it done for us ASAP.

James was very responsive, friendly and professional on the phone and was so helpful. He came out quickly when another business with supposedly "great" reviews on Angie's List had canceled at the last minute leaving us in a very bad bind. He offered tips over the phone on which door and size was better to buy. He came out and did a very professional job. He was efficient and did great work. We really appreciated his workmanship and would definitely use his business again. We will also recommend him to any of our friends.
Description of Work: Installed and resized an interior door that we had pre-purchased.

I am satisfied with them; they came on time and were efficient. They did not damage anything, got the work done and the price was reasonable. It was one guy who owns the business and he had a helper who did all the work. The young guy had all the muscle to do something that I don't want to do anymore. There was not much to it, really. He was good at what he did, did it well and did it quickly. The price could have been a little less because I did not have a lot done, but they had a minimum hourly and I had to make some work up for them to do, which is okay because I needed to have it done anyway. They are not too far away from here.
Description of Work: I used them for moving some window air conditioners into a place. They also did a few other odd jobs.

We've had James and those he works with over multiple times for various projects in our recently purchased old house, and they've done excellent work every time. James has an electrician, plumber, and another handyman he works with for the various projects and they are all professional and knowledgable. We were also working on a new tile flooring job ourselves and James was kind enough to let us borrow his wet saw so we could finish the ton of cuts we had to do. Overall we have been very satisfied with James and plan to continue to work with him on all the stuff we want to upgrade/improve in our home.

I should have not allowed them to estimate the job by just talking to me over the phone. It turned out to be more than I originally thought. However, the guy worked with me and explained the door took a lot more work and energy than he anticipated. While one guy was working the other guy left for a long time. They did not communicate well me at that time so I was confused but it worked out fine. They also said the person who originally installed the lock did not have the holes in place so it was hard for them to make it work. I am still having problems with the lock. I can lock the door knob lock but I can't lock the deadbolt. It's working a lot better than what it was, but I have not called them back. They completed the job and the price was reasonable.
Description of Work: They refinished the outside of my front door and replaced the lock. I had a window without a window sill so they replaced that as well.

They were excellent. They were very good. I don't recall the price. It was reasonable. You show him what you need done. You leave him alone and he does it. He did it quickly and he did not waste any time. He did a lot of work in the one day he was here with us. He works fast and does a great job. He was wonderful.
Description of Work: I used myHandyPro about a month ago. We used them once as we had a lot of little things we needed fixed. He did a great job. He did a bunch of odd jobs throughout the house.

I telephoned this man on October 11th, I asked him if he could come out and fix a pipe that was leaking very badly in my basement. He told me, "I am working on the south side today, but I could come tomorrow." At this point I needed someone ASAP. So I called someone else and they came out right away. I did not call him back so on Saturday morning, he just showed up at my house telling my husband that I did not call him to cancel (even though he could not reach me by my cell). He told me that his website states that if he makes a trip and because I did not call, we had to pay him $90.00. He must hav forgotten that I never used him from his website, only from Angie's List. If it was not for my husband I would not have given him anything and I would have called the police. I would never use him again!

Response from myHandypro
Let me begin by saying we appreciate all feed back from our clients and hope that we can improve from what we learn. We had serviced [member name removed] in the past and I believe she was very satisfied with our work. On this occasion we received a call about a leaking pipe on the Thursday evening as stated. We told the [member name removed] we were unable to make the repair that evening and the first available slot was Saturday morning. Although we have a time and a half charge for Saturday we waived this and agreed to charge regular time. [member name removed] agreed for our technician to come between 8 and 9 am on Saturday morning. Our service tech arrived at thje residence at 8:30 Saturday morning as scheduled. Initially there was no response, we telephoned the client but did not receive an answer. Eventually. [member name removed] came to the door, he explained that the leak had been repaired another contractor. He was asked why he had not cancelled the service that had been rscheduled. He said he was not sure and would ask his wife. We were told [member name removed] was not aware that it was scheduled for sure. There is no question that the agreement had been made and was placed into our schedule, we take our scheduling very seriously. Our tech responded that it was booked with his wife on Thursday evening and that it definitely had been scheduled. The entire conversation was civil and respectful. We requested the minimum service fee for sending our tech out. Had it not been a Saturday morning and special arrangements made to provide this service we likely would have waived the charge. But in this case we felt the client had caused us to come out to their residence and easily could have cancelled with a quick phone call and avoided the situation. I believe the gentlemen at the residence understood this and it is why we were paid for our time. We regret that this has caused an issue but feel we were justified in requesting the payment.

James was able to squeeze us into his schedule with 48 hours notice. He was extremely punctual and came with all of the tools and supplies needed to complete the job. My wife and I are very busy and James was able to help out with several projects around our house and did a wonderful job. I would highly recomend James and his team to my friends and fully plan on using him again.
