Will was a hard worker, staying until the job was done, picked up and disposed of all the scraps leaving the area in tip top shape!

David is incredible…read more David specializes in fixing other peoples' shoddy work. I had a bad patch job done on my ceiling before I moved in. David made it look a million times better after he was done. The job took two days, where he repaired the ceiling, then painted it. Very efficient, good pricing and all around good guy.

I had called multiple roofers because I was having an issue with water leaking into my living room…read more None of them though could give me a definitive answer as to what was causing the issue and would therefore not perform any guaranteed work to fix the issue. I asked all the roofers if they wanted to cut into the ceiling but all insisted 'we work from the top down, not the bottom up'. I contacted Wall Eye to see if they would cut into my ceiling so I could perform an investigation into the issue myself. When David came by I got A LOT more than I expected. He not only did a great job of making a clean cut into my ceiling, he then took the time to take a look at the damage inside the ceiling, go outside to take a look at what was above the leak, and go upstairs to take a look at the window/roof above the leak. Before he left he told me 'I'm not a roofer but if I was to bet, your issue lies either with the seal around your window or the portion of your roof right above it". After David left I contacted another roofing company to come by and give their opinion of the issue (now being able to see inside the ceiling) and they stated they believed the issue was the EXACT same thing David did. The roofing company said they were so sure that this was the issue (based on being able to see inside the ceiling) that they were now able to guarantee the work that was done. The roofers have since completed their work and I have not the issue since. I am sure there are dozens if not more drywall contractors out there who can cut a hole or patch a hole - thankfully I was able to find one though who went completely above and beyond what was requested and/or required - David is a true 'class act' who I will never hesitate to call for any drywall work I need done in the future.

He stuck to his phone quote even though it took a tad longer to complete the job. Part of the problem was on me as I failed to tell him in advance how I wanted the shower door handles installed.

All of his work was done in a professional manner. Also importantly, when I asked him if he would lay ceramic tile, he said no; but he could refer me to a qualified person. This is important because he won't take on a job that is beyond his comfort level. That, to me, goes a long way toward earning my trust.

I also couldn't figure out how my toggle bolts were getting stuck/not tightening which left me stuck halfway through the project on my own. My call was returned same day and I was able to quickly set an appointment. Sergio called me 15 minutes before my set time and made me feel like one of my buddies just happened to be in the neighborhood. We quickly figured out that my bolts were too long and were bending as I pushed them against the foundation. With an expert on-site and having the extra set of hands we had the new unit installed in under 30 mins. Friendly and prompt service from a professional contractor.

I was looking for a handyman in the Evanston area to improve a few things in my condo that I had…read morebeen putting off for a few years. So I found AGH on Yelp and put in the request on their website. I received a quick response and George came out to take a look at everything we wanted to do and provided an estimate later in the week. Once I had a chance to review all my estimates I contacted AGH and gave them the green light. They were able to start work on my projects within a week. Here are the projects I had them work on: -Custom built cabinet/pantry in my kitchen -Custom backsplash above my kitchen counter/sink -Remove/install new cabinet by my stove -Recaulk bathroom window in my shower From start to finish it took them about a week. Pretty reasonable given the amount of work I had done. They also stayed within the original budget that was quoted. They were also very clean and the workers that were in and out of my condo were very polite. I will definitely call them again for my next projects. Only reason I don't give 5 stars is because the communication could have been better coordinated. It seems they have different contacts for all aspects: estimates, payments, and actual work. This is my only knock on AGH, but overall I am very happy with all the work performed in my condo!

Jeff walked me through every step of each of my small projects. he even went to a HomeGoods store with me to help pick out a tub and tile. He installed a new tub and subway tile in the shower (the tiles lined up perfectly), a shower niche, closed off walls, added closets, removed sliding glass doors to sunroom, and repaired drywall. He worked on our home for two weeks and we are very pleased. Honest, hard-working and communicates process & status along the way. Jeff pays attention to all the little details that go i to leaving a professional finish on every task. Trustworthy to leave home alone, even with the dogs. Now that I know I have someone who I can count on to show up (and do good work), I will have plenty more projects for Jeff soon. We have already made a plan of how future work would flow best as I am planning to complete my projects in different stages.

I called Jeff to change out a water heater. The job went pretty smooth and Jeff was very personable…read moreso I thought I found a great handyman I could use for various projects. A couple of weeks after it was installed my furnace went out and the guy fixing it noticed water on top of the water heater and told me there's a leak from installation and it would rust the top out of the water heater. I took a pic of the water pooling on the water heater and sent it to Jeff and got no reply back. When he finally messaged back he said he had been running a high fever and he then scheduled a day to come out the next week to fix it. We are now 8 days past the day he scheduled with me and he has not messaged once and doesn't answer texts. Avoid! He will not fix his mistakes!!

Handy Fellas was hired on May 11, 2019 for a $23,800 project quoted for completion in 3-4 weeks…read more After many delays Jacob agreed to finally "wrap" the project on September 23, 2019. He has been paid 90% of the project amount to date and left behind inferior workmanship, debris from demolition, and zero communication of how he plans to resolve this despite multiple attempts to contact him. We were willing to come to a resolution with Jacob so long as he provided satisfactory work, but due to his unresponsiveness, we have since hired a replacement and are looking at another $9,100 to FIX + COMPLETE the work that he was initially hired for. Our experience with Jacob & Handy Fellas was incredibly disappointing. In the end, the project is costing us far more money and time than expected because of our decision to hire this contractor. -------------------------------- In response to business' comments: Feel free to choose any of the texts or emails sent to you dating back to September 24, 2019. Looking forward to hear how you plan to resolve this.

We reached out to Jacob for help with a few projects in our new condo. The major project was…read moremounting a television over the fire place and hiding all cables into the wall. Jacob was able to do the entire job in one day (running a conduit from the floor to behind tv, setting up new electrical outlet behind tv, mounting tv, etc.) Working with Jacob was awesome. Prior to Jacob, we had others provide estimates on the job and they completely exaggerated what needed to be done. This was not the case with Jacob. He was straight forward, and looked for the best way to do a quality job efficiently. We are so glad we reached out to him. We look forward to continuing to work with Jacob and Handy Fellas on future jobs.

After I decided to go with him, he was in constant communication with scheduling the work, since the weather wasn't cooperating. When he came out to do the work, everything went as planned. There were a couple of issues that came up but Andy was able to quickly provide a recommendation on how we can get them resolved. Overall, I'm very satisfied with his work and service. He's also a friendly guy and quick to respond to any questions you have. I will definitely be calling him again in the future.

Unfortunately the paint job is unsatisfactory. The walls were not properly prepared for painting. I asked the peeling tape and cracks repaired. There are still very obvious cracks.
