    Ruy Barbosa is high off the charts in professionalism. He was responsive to our questions, and…read moreintuitive about our interests. He communicated with us throughout the project of installing a new Timberteck deck. His crew worked straight on through from start to finish without empty lapses of time. The men are so highly skilled. We continue to be happy with our beautiful deck. Therefore, we asked Ruy to install a Timberteck stair rail at our front doors, which also has withstood the test of time. We'd been concerned that installments like this would compromise the brick, whereby requiring a total rebuild, but a rebuild wasn't necessary. He also advise us on an easy and effective fix to divert water from flowing from the gutter and freezing to ice on those brick steps in winter. Based on the outcome of these projects, and our experience in their progression, we highly recommend this company.

    Brutal experience with them back in 2022-2024. Would take weeks and, more than once, even months…read moreto get them to come back and do any work (see screenshots of my text interactions with them -- note the dates). They were supposed to build a new rubber roof. It started leaking on 3 separate occasions (which btw was never fully fixed -- we moved on to different contractors who did address the issues). And like I said, it would take months for them to actually come back and attempt to fix anything. Often they'd come by, look at the damage, then I wouldn't hear from them for multiple weeks. Meanwhile, more damage continues to accrue to the walls and ceilings. The internal fixes they applied for the water damage were just patch jobs. They just plastered and painted over. Meanwhile, the insulation behind the wall was soaked and accrued black mold that we had to address later. Also worth pointing out a major blunder at the beginning of the project (see attached videos and pics). They opened up the roof, and left it open for multiple days without doing any work. Well of course a major rainstorm came by (which was on the weather forecast well in advance). Alll that water poured into the house in the middle of the night setting off fire alarms. It was a nightmare to deal with on my end.

    I am so glad I found Mr. Handyman of South Essex. I moved to a new home and some of the tiles in my…read moreshower were leaning in and the wall behind was damaged. I had no idea if this was a huge issue or a small one. I called Mr. Handyman and the staff is so very professional. They explain how they work and how much it costs by the hour. They sent Amir who was very kind and professional. He showed up on time. He worked quite quickly. He found the problem, bought the parts, and fixed my issue. He had to come back to grout as the tiles needed to dry. He showed up on time the second time and also worked quickly. Luckily the issue was just in the baseboard and Amir explained how the damage happened and made sure to seal everything well. They are licensed and insured and all the workers have a minimum of 15 years of experience. I felt very safe hiring them. I am happy with the end result. Thank you, Mr. Handyman and Amir!

    I received service from Mr. Handyman from Peabody MA. The handyman, Edward Hickey, who did our…read morework was great. He repaired our ceiling. However, we would not recommend their service, unless for emergency because of the the lack of transparancy with the fees and charges. We were quoted $800 + materials for a job that actually took 4 hours, and they charged us the higher amount rather than adjust our fee to the actual time, which was much less than quoted by the administrative person based on a picture that we sent. It's clear that they are looking to make a quick dollar and not retain customers!.

    Carlos, my review most certaintly represents your business which is you and how you conduct…read morebusiness. I did NOT mention the issues that happened along the way because you begged me not to write a bad review. You offered band aids rather than to fix things correctly. and then practically bribed me with an inflated bill that you lowered. I didnt say anything about the issues being code /permit related. But you did damage my driveway, your manager was shown the the back porch and how I DIDNT want the front porch to be when corners were mitered and I asked them not to be because of expansion and contraction , your remark was it was a different crew who did it? you didnt inform them of our conversation. the cement didnt come out the color chosen, you didnt do a test color, your manager bought the wrong landscape wall, I immediately contacted you it was incorrect, and you still tried to charge me, Of course I was not happy. The roofing is now leaking, no the inspector didnt get up there and look under the shingles, if that is what you are suggesting. I was just letting you know 3.5 weeks ago what was happening now and you completely ignored me. You think its ok. So I agreed that I didnt want you to seal my driveway because that doesnt fix the 4 dents you put there when you put your dumpster there with no wood underneath to protect my driveway. your response was I wasnt there when they came. Again no communication with your workers or subs. Again that is not my fault. not to mention you dumping waste from another job in my dumpster or you piling up wood for another job all over my grass which was dead when you finally finished. Or how about the job only being six weeks and ended up being 6 months from Sept to Feb. All my emails were about what was going on in my job, which concerns me and should have concerned you. But you refused to talk to me unless the manager was there. Not my fault your men do not do what you want them to do and you try to pass their mistakes on to me. I guess when my railings on my stairs were discovered not to be connected last year, on both sides, I guess you didnt decide to not work together, or could it be that you only responded because the inspector on the job who signed off called you personally to fix it , although you didnt fix it according to what the inspector suggested that you follow the manufacturers instructions, you just put in 2 screws to hold in place. As the inspectors stated we do not go around lifting materials or climb on roofs, they inspect with eyes only. Or when your framing failed during the rough and you had to come back to make adjustments before going forward. Maybe if I called the inspector first about the roof , it would have gotten your attention, but I will inform him now, seeing that you have ignored me, to let him know you failed to flash the roof by code. You see this is what caused the leak, doesnt matter if it was within a year , you didnt do what you were suppose to do initially. Why didnt your company tell me they dont know how to do roofing, I would have gotten a professional. This was a new fail on your behalf and this is how you choose to handle it to ignore me. My original complaint here was not about 4 years ago because I didnt mention all that happened. IT was to bring attention to the Roof from 3.5 weeks ago. But because of your lame response, its all out of the bag now and you only have yourself to blame. This could have all been avoided if you acted like a professional. I didnt know the roof was going to fail. Maybe you got away with not fixing your prior screw ups because you offered band aids, but the roofing was a current issue. Ok maybe work isnt warranted anymore, but any good contractor would try to do the right thing and you didnt step up! So this Review is all on you. Hope this helps you learn how you should treat paying customers but I can see you havent grown since.
