This is a sad story. Austin does fantastic work but can not consistently show up and always has an excuse. He will prolong a two-day job over weeks. He also combines his personal financial account with his business account. Do not give him money for materials; pay them yourself. He took my $1,000 draw for materials and ghosted me for three days. He finally surfaced after my angry texts and tried to make me feel bad. He admitted to spending my money on his finances so he couldn't complete my job. He said he would use Doordash or Uber to raise the $1,000 to finish my job because he is so "trustworthy." Insane! He has an F on BBB. I didn't do my research. https://www.bbb.org/us/tn/harriman/profile/handyman/handyman-services-0533-90036607 read more

No call, no show twice this week re HVAC warranty work. We lost a week and a half messing around with you. Its getting colder at night so, thanks.... If you're too busy, or don't want the job, don't take it. But, communication would have been nice....even though we expected it, given other reviews. Our time is important too- made arrangements twice to be here.... read more

Home warranty called him to check my heat pump. To start off I had to call him. It was going to take a week for him to get here. I asked him due to others that were sent before messing up, if he was an A/C man. He got his panties in a bunch and started going off about how he's been doing this for 24 years. He Never said he's a trained a/c man, But.... His site says he worked for an election for 15 years. Buddy, that ain't HVAC. After he quit crying I told him to come on and what was happing. My pump was short cycling. He got quiet. Definitely didn't know what I meant. But.... He was supposed to come on. A week later, no show or call. I talked to the warranty company, telling them it's not my place to chase these "handiboys" down. They called him Thursday after he was supposed to be here Wednesday and he told them he'd check his schedule for Fri. FOR FRIDAY?! You were supposed to be checking mine on Wednesday. I called him myself. No answer and no return call. Looks folks, after 35 years in construction I know a wanna be. DO NOT MESS WITH THIS FAKE. And if it's for your HVAC, here's two tips #1 license does not mean hvac trained. Anyone can take the test to buy freon. #2 An HVAC man WILL NOT be working on toilets, painting, decks etc.. They will be doing HVAC work. Don't waste your time with this clown. And Austin, if you'd like to dispute anything I put here feel free to try. read more

I located Austin via Home Depot's referral service, he hung a couple TVs and that went fine, so I hired him to do other jobs. The first of those jobs (patching holes and staining sections of exterior wood), he showed up late, the work was ho-hum quality, left early and didn't finish, but promised to be back the next day to finish it. For the next three days, he ghosted me with multiple excuses for not being there: Day 1) his daughter needed emergency surgery, Day 2) rental equipment not working, Day 3) he quit because he didn't like my attitude about him missing work. He was paid for the first day, and apparently had no interest in doing anything else. Austin was boastful about how experienced he was, and kept repeating how I could "trust him" and he was a professional, even after the no shows. He was literally trying to goad me into firing him, which I didn't because I could see he just wanted an excuse to not show up. No surprise when he officially quit. Worthless. read more

If I could I would give this business a 0 rating! We have Home Warranty Insurance and our guest toilet had a serious leak. We called them & they assigned A Handyman Service's (poor grammar by the way-no apostrophe needed!) to us. They said he would call within 1 business day. After 24 hours I called the number listed. He did call me back saying he'd left a message on my cell-no call received or recorded! He gave me a day/time but never showed & never called to cancel or change it. I called again, and he did answer & give me another date and a series of excuses about why he'd blown me off. Anyway, the work order was issued on August 24 and as of September 2, he'd missed yet another 2 dates! I called the insurance back this morning (9/6) and asked for another plumber to be assigned to our case. They are here now and it is fixed! Do NOT EVER deal with A Handyman Service's if you want something fixed promptly. read more

Wish I could leave zero stars. This guy was assigned to me through my home warranty company. I submitted the claim on December 21st and it is February 22nd and my issue is STILL not resolved. So many missed scheduled appointments. He has had the replacement part for WEEKS. Totally ghosted me. Will not answer phone calls or text messages. I have spent so much of my life the last two months following up and chasing my tail. So much ridiculous stress and worry about whether my pool pipes and/or brand new $10k heater is going to freeze over because the pump is out and not moving the water. If he gets assigned to you, call and ask for someone else and certainly do not hire this loser. read more

Called on a Saturday morning due to waking up and our basement had flooded from our water heater busting. He was here with in an hour of my call and had it replaced and cleaned up before lunch. He told us he does other things also so we will be having him back to fix some electrical issues along with some plumbing. Great rates and very thorough. read more
