The plumber from HOME CARE fled. FLED. I'd shown him a toilet where the on/off valve needs to be…read morefixed. The cat box in there was stinky, and I apologized, saying I'd drag it outside. He also checked a clogged toilet, in a bathroom that I haven't been able to keep pristine. Then? He said he had to go to his truck to work up an estimate. After waiting on him for 25 minutes, I saw that he'd just GONE. I called HQ: they said he he'd called them, saying he 'FELT LIKE VOMITING'. OK, fair enough, I am disabled and can't keep the house as I'd like. but to just FLEE?? With not a WORD??? HQ guy said they're a new company, and still working on "customer relations' issues. He was embarrassed, and I am livid. All the guy had to do was tell me he was leaving, and why. I'd have understood, esp with the stinky cat box bathroom. But to just LEAVE without telling me?? NOT good customer relations, guys. And HQ not calling me to tell me he'd vanished, leaving me to look like a dork with a stinky bathroom? A stinky house? NOT GOOD. Not good at all.

They reached out to me and asked if we had any projects we were looking to do soon. We did have…read moreone, so I agreed to have them come out and give an estimate. There was absolutely no mention that there would be a $95 fee to do this. Zero. We were not planning on having this project done in the next 30 days, so applying that to my project is meaningless. But also, I never would have agreed to it if told in advance, which is probably why they don't. Completely dishonest.

I chose this company based on the previous reviews with Home Advisor & Google…read more Unfortunately I did not have the same positive experiences. In my opinion , Antoine was not punctual nor tidy (the job site was a mess , documented with photos) nor communicated fully with me. I often did not know when he would be here , he said 10 and showed up at 11 for a few hours. I sent a few texts to him asking "do you plan on working on my deck this week?" I paid $4000 for material and now have been told they are not what is needed for the project. The plywood for the roof was actually sub-flooring. 04/29/2024 project started and after paying for materials , I was told another $4000 was due for labor that would be done. 05/01/2024 I prepaid labor charges of $4000 and that amount of labor was not done according to his bid. Due to my concerns about the quality/safety - I enlisted the help of a professional contractor. It was determined the load bearing post for the shingled roof was substandard, I have photos that show them 10 inches in the ground with no concrete footers. The Professional contractor had a conversation with Antoine who agreed the foundation needed to be redone. A building permit was not pulled even though my deck is 4-5 feet off the ground , Antoine said it was not needed. Most days he was here for about 3- 3.5 hours , a few days not here at all - weather was not the issue , I was told "admin day".. I was told that the enclosed deck would take about 3 weeks and at the end of 2.5 weeks , Demo was not even completed (again I have photos) He walked away with $4000 of my money. I ended up emailing him a letter of termination as I was not confident in his ability to complete this job according to code & that the finished covered deck would be safe. Home Advisor /Angie's list has attempted several times to contact him with no response from Antoine. AND HIS WEBSITE SAYS: "WE CARE"

Antoine was awesome! I was looking for someone on Google to help with our second home that we just…read morebought out of state. I knew no one and needed a leak repaired. Found a few handymen online but they all told me they wouldn't work in the evenings or weekends...the only time we were available. I saw Antoine's website and decided to call him. He answered all my questions and was willing to come over that evening to check things out. He diagnosed the issue and we set up and appointment for that weekend. He arrived on time and quickly got to work. Fixed our leak quickly and cleaned up his work space. His pricing was reasonable and he was very personable. Since I was out of state, he sent me pictures and a full detailed email of what he did. I was surely impressed. So much so I hired him again to fix an outlet behind our stove that was preventing the stove from sitting flush against the wall. He came back two weeks later and just like before made the repair quick and efficiently. Truly appreciated his professionalism. Will definitely be using him again. Two Thumbs for A French Handyman!!!

I hired Adam to take a mounted tv down and patch any holes in the wall in an apartment we are renting. While talking to him, I asked him to take it to our house and mount it on a bedroom wall.

You should give him a try.

His rates are the best I've seen in the area. Two other plumbing companies in Lafayette quoted me 3 and 4 times as much for the same work. That's $400/hr and totally unrealistic! I'm not sure lawyers make that much?? Anyway, Captain Kirk quoted a very reasonable price, showed up on the weekend at no extra charge. We were so impressed to finally have the work done after waiting on another plumber that we gave him a $50 tip. He really should charge more. Give him a try for your next projects. You won't be disappointed.
