We initially had a great experience with Handy Hero. Roman was punctual, professional, and fixed…read moreseveral items during the first visit. We were pleased. However, he couldn't repair one cabinet hinge due to a broken piece and asked us to purchase a replacement. In the meantime, he adjusted the other hinges that were working fine, which made the cabinet doors function worse than before. On his second visit, he said the part we bought wasn't correct, took a sample with him to purchase the right one, and again left the doors misaligned. After multiple calls and messages over several weeks, we've received no follow-up and no return visit to complete the job. It's disappointing because the first impression was so positive. We were hoping for a better outcome and a repair company we could rely on for years to come. Unfortunately, the job remains unfinished and our cabinets are now in worse shape than when he started.

We are lucky we found Steve. It's nice knowing I have someone I can always call for projects that I trust. Thanks Steve!

Called a few places around but they did not have any availability. I called Mario and he went over within the hour. He did do some cleaning to get the heat to work. He went back the next morning out of concern to find out that the heater was blowing cold air. He advised me that the unit needed to be replace. (I knew that as the inspector did advise me as well). HE gave me a great deal on the replacement unit as well. Long story short Mario is someone you can trust that he'll do a good job, and give you a fair price/advise. He wont BS you into doing things you don't need. If i the pipes had frozen i would have had thousands of dollars wasted.

We were able to speak with Anna, who was very friendly and straightforward, look at samples, get an approximate quote based on the measurements we brought, and get back home with time to spare on my lunch hour. I was surprised with how simple it all was, and the price seemed reasonable. We called back and scheduled the in home measurement the same day, booked the service, and had it installed about a week later. On the day they did the installation, I had removed the previous sink but couldn't get it outside by myself. Art, the installer, helped me carry it down when he arrived, and was able to install the new counter and sink in less than an hour. Overall, a pretty easy and reasonably priced process. I'll likely go back to them when I replace my half bath and kitchen counters.

Should have read/listened to the reviews…read more So disappointing. Scare tactics and bad service. After their cleaning I found soot, debris and a dead mouse! I was with their technician the entire time, asked why he didn't use his vacuum that he brought and he said the chimneys were clean due to lack of use. However after his "inspection" he had nearly $13000 of "mandatory" repairs needed if I didn't want my house to burn down. Not to worry, there was a $300 dollar coupon if I signed that day. When I said no, they offered to seal my chimney for around $500 if he did it then and there, if not it would be an additional since they'd have to set up a ladder again. Really?? He pushed and pushed, more and more dire scenarios should I delay these repairs. I had to act fast since there was no time to delay due to scheduling. He cleaned two of the 3 flus since one was in my kitchen but I was still charged since he "inspected" it. I got a second and a third opinion. Both of these contractors agreed these "repairs" WERE NOT NECESSARY but should be done however everything was safe to use. I asked for a refund due to the lack of cleaning, scare tactics and poor customer service. I figured it was a long shot but tried, it was rejected. My chimney was sealed and fireboxes mortar repairs without coming anywhere near their quoted price. I'm no expert and don't doubt these repairs should be done. This companies tactic of dire scenario and house burning down compared to two other licensed contractors stating a polar opposite is very concerning. I felt it was a scare tactic to myself and wife to maximize high dollar "repairs". I plan to make repairs but certainly will not be calling them. If you do call them, I'd highly recommend getting a second opinion. Maybe I got a bad tech, the service lady said he's one of their most seasoned. Bad day? I don't know but that was an overall terrible experience. UPDATE Adam thank you but as you were not here, I asked what that meant and he repeated, maybe a bad joke? Secondly, I was with him as I don't welcome strangers in my home unattended which is why I scheduled for a Saturday. My wife was in the kitchen unpacking as we just moved in. Thirdly, I requested to speak to a supervisor but was offered a technician instead. Yes, I rejected your offer for another technician, why would I accept the offer when I I had such a bad experience? Why would I invite this service back Into my home? Lastly, pictures you requested. Perhaps you have done great work over 30 years but the feeling these were fear tactic pressuring and leaving the debris behind is the basis for my review. Your technician saying he couldn't clean the kitchen because you don't provide kitchen service and charging me all while pressuring us to agree and sign for repairs (for a "only today" 300 dollar off coupon) that were very much disagreed upon by two other contractors. Another great thing about a free market system is that I'm entitled to my opinion based on my experience. Perhaps others have had the greatest experience ever, I did not. Maybe your technician had a bad day.
