THAT wasn't happening with other contacts, whether on Facebook messenger or other. Fred responded quickly, viewed my photos and description of the problem, and worked us into his schedule. I'm SO relieved I found a reliable company...working on my next 'to do' list. Thanks Fred Delaney! Personally, I don't mind waiting--I understand one's busyness when it comes to their business. I DO mind no communication or a timely response to a query that asks for it in the first place. Just a polite note to other small businesses: If you have a FB page, webpage, or text ability...and you're too busy to keep up or respond to a potential customer who asks for help/info from your page, then may I suggest you hire someone to do it for you. Speaking as a potential customer, you're not only out money, you're out a good recommendation. First impressions mean a great deal. Even if you can't do it, you need to respond. Timely. All the time.

I am very pleased with the service Chris and Melissa provided. First, Chris showed up when he said…read morehe would. I had a list of handyman type services, he explained which he could do and which would require a licensed plumber etc. He was knowledgeable, polite and friendly but not overly friendly/chatty. He explained which of the items on my list I could save some money and do myself like caulking the tub. He showed me how to tighten my faucet handles AND he fixed a leak in my toilet. He showed me where my water turn off was. I know, really basic homeowner stuff I didn't know. The prices were reasonable. Melissa helped us figure out the Venmo since I am not the most tech savvy person. All in all a good experience. Thanks Chris and Melissa!

This is not a pleasant chore, but it has to be said…read more Overall, the work was rushed and shoddy. We asked him to blow the leaves off the back of our property, as well as remove small trees and brush. He only did a portion of the work, and we had to remind him we wanted the entire back done, despite making this a top priority in our first meeting. Even then he left out a portion, and had to be reminded again to do what had been asked. The flowers and plants were planted without due attention to detail, as well as insufficient fertilizing with the supplies we had bought for that purpose. We've had to go over all the plantings and do them properly afterwards. He transplanted some azaleas from the front to the back yard, and only one of the three was done properly. Again, we've had to fix what he had done improperly. The river rocks spread over our garden beds was done well at first, but as the job progressed it got sloppier. I spent quite a bit of time rectifying this situation by adding more rocks and making it neat. There's just very little attention to detail evident in the work he did, and not a great deal of care was applied. There was always a sense of the work being rushed instead of applying the care it needed. Our lawn has felt the effects from his truck and excavator driving on it, and some spots will not be growing back without replanting. It looked like a battlefield when he was done. If you do hire BDS, make sure you are watchful for his use of the truck and excavator. They can do real damage, as they did to our property. I will also add that he did damage to our driveway, and refuses to acknowledge it. We had a crack in the driveway before he came, and now it is much more than a crack, and that part of the driveway is collapsing into pieces. I asked him to send me pictures he said proved that he didn't do it, but he never did, despite being asked twice. The neighbors have also commented on the damage that he did. All I can say is, if you are considering BDS, you've been warned.

Shawn at Heavenly Home Improvements worked on a power outlet, weatherstripping and a door…read moreinstallation for us. On the small projects, he did an excellent job and was very thorough. On the door installation, he had to leave for a family emergency and I agreed to finish the job with some paint and caulk. However, another builder subsequently inspected the job and found that the framing required extra wood shims and I had to hire someone else to fix it. The prices were a bit higher than other handyman services. Overall, I think Heavenly Home Improvements is a decent choice for small projects but buyers may wish to compare hourly rates first.

The first coat in the stairwell did not cover well; original paint could be seen in several places…read more They came back to roll a second coat, but did not "cut in" along the edges. Once dry, this left a visible jagged border along the ceiling lines, corners, under the railing, and into the family room at the bottom of the stairs. Apparently, the original gallon and the new gallon weren't mixed together for this project, so the tints were slightly off. So, the original work wasn't satisfactory, and their recommended fix created an even bigger problem - all the while assuring me that everything would dry evenly and that I would be satisfied. And all that, by the way, after I pre-paid for the work to be done. Their solution to the whole debacle was to make excuses and charge more money. After dealing with the frustration, and a lack of communication and timeliness, I did not agree to the extra expense. In all fairness, he did offer a bit of a discount to make everything right. Shawn is a nice guy and a member of our community, which makes this experience - and this review - all the more disappointing. On the bright side, the hallway and the ceiling look great. We're grateful for that.
