The morning of our appointment was rainy and a traffic nightmare throughout the region. I received a message from the owner that my technician would be a little late (about 15 minutes). When he arrived, he immediately got started. I inspected his work afterwards, he even caulked a couple of spots I hadn't thought about! It's very neat and the color is a perfect match. I have quite a few projects to complete in our old DC rowhouse and plan to use On Duty Handyman again. Hopefully Rolio will make a return visit. Nice work!

They came right away and the plumber just looked at the pump from the cellar door and didn't do anything but said he was here to look and send me an estimate. He didn't want to check if sump pump was working nor did he melt the ice in my pipe. The worst part he left and never called back nor did he send an estimate. Thank you for your quick response to my negative review which shows your concern. No, you never sent me an estimate but I guess with all the snow and ice and no parking spaces I was lost in the shuffle. I will improve my rating of your company because of your quick response to my review. I've always had great experiences with Mayco before this event.

WORST HANDYMAN I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED…read more Here's what happened... - I asked Gino to do 2 tasks: 1) install an additional shelf in my closet and 2) transform an empty/dead space in my cabinet into a usable cabinet. He said he could do both and would charge me $300 for both tasks - I didn't even negotiate with him as I thought that seemed like a fair price? - For the cabinet I asked Gino to transform the empty space into a cupboard that matches the rest of my cabinets. First off, he asked me to pick up all the wood, plywood, and handles from Home Depot (WHAT!? I have no experience in this!). That should have been my first warning sign, but he insisted I do it. Then, he did a half-ass job of constructing a cabinet that barely even matches the rest - it looks like a 2 year old did it. Lastly, and most infuriatingly, I noticed that he put the cabinet door on backwards - with the brown/rough edge exposed instead of the polished white side facing out!! When I texted Gino to alert him to his mistake, he replied "Paint it white" - how condescending! What an awful handyman to suggest I finish the job for him that he did incorrectly! Pictures of the cabinet and text attached. - For the closet, I currently have 1 shelf installed but want a 2nd above the 1st. Gino drilled 12 halls into the wall and THEN told me he was unable to complete the task because there was metal behind the wall. Seems strange because there's already 1 shelf successfully up, but fine - I understand if it's a safety concern and he doesn't want to complete the task. The part I'm furious about is that he left the 12 drilled holes in my wall that I now have to now patch, sand, and paint!! Picture attached. I told Gino he could not leave my wall like that - and he said he would return another day to fix it - and I requested it be within the next 2 weeks... - Bringing me to my next point, his unprofessional, condescending, and a**hole behavior. I followed up the morning Gino was supposed to return to the finish/fix the job and he replied "In hospital. Bad Reception. Flu and Other symptoms". Ooook ... I texted you, didn't call ... but fine, I'll assume you're telling the truth and so I told him to rest, feel better, and we could regroup the following week. Upon confirmation the following week Gino replied "Can't work for 2-3 weeks. I'm past 60, my body is breaking down. Some faster than others - not sure when I can get back there". So I replied "Sorry to hear you're body is breaking down, but that's not the deal we made ... I paid you $300 for an unfinished job that I expected you to complete within 2 weeks, so I would like you to come back tomorrow or give me an exact date you can return" ... to which he replied: "Listen here little girl. I went there to do a job. And my job did not include painting. You have champagne taste on a beer budget. I'm out. Enough said". WHAT......???? All of these texts are attached. This is unprofessional, rude, and UNREAL - I couldn't believe he had the audacity to say such awful things! - Gino is a conman: he does part of the job, at poor quality under expectations, demands money with the promise that he'll return to finish, and then plays sick or flat out denies to come back. - Gino told me that he used to live in LA and went bankrupt there ... and now I understand why. He'll probably go bankrupt here in DC as well. Moral of the story: DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN - HE IS HORRIFIC. *Gino: I will gladly revise this review if you choose to fix the problems you created at my house or refund my money for an unfinished job. Otherwise this post will remain on your Yelp page to warn others against you.

I was shocked when George answered the phone. After chatting with me for a few minutes about my issue, he asked if we could FaceTime and he had me show him the issues in my house. He helped me diagnose my issues and get things working like new. When I emailed him to tell him that the issue was resolved thanks to his expertise, and I offered to pay him for the inspection, he declined. He said he didn't charge phone calls between friends. This literally does not happen anymore, and I was floored. George has my gratitude and I am a customer for life.

Jon is the most professional plumber I'd ever had. He has all the right tools, doing all the…read morenecessary checks beyond my original request, and most importantly, he gets the job done, completely done with the root cause found and a proposal to address it. He not only performed the requested hydro jetting service to clean the pipe, but also identified the root cause of the clog (there is a "belly section"), and helped me pinpoint the section of the pipe. While he's cleaning up, he identified a sink issue which has nothing to do with the original pipe problem, he took care of that. Overall, Jon is a very friendly, professional and reliable technician, I will not need to look for another plumber, he's the best.

We called to have three faucets replaced (one kitchen and two bathroom) and a vanity top installed…read more We were very pleased by the quality of the service and the cost was very reasonable for everything we had done. The work was done cleanly and efficiently and was top-notch. We were even able to have old water line and gasket issues addressed that, left in the condition they were in, would have cost us a lot of money in terms of plumbing leaks and likely emergency service. Other plumbers who previously worked on these sinks and faucet installations never pointed out any of the simple fixes that needed to be done to keep our water lines working properly. We appreciated the timely service, the attention to detail that was needed on our job, and the additional small repairs that were able to be taken care of all during the same visit. We would use this plumbing service again (but hope we don't have to anytime soon!) and would recommend this company to others.

I can't say enough great things about All-Service Plumbing and Robert, the owner. From start to finish, the experience was absolutely outstanding. Robert is the definition of honest. In a field where it's easy to upsell unnecessary work, he took the time to thoroughly assess the issue, clearly explain what was actually needed, and offer practical, cost-effective solutions. He even showed me what I needed to go buy to fix my problem for another water issue I was having in my basement. No pressure, no gimmicks--just straightforward, trustworthy advice. That kind of integrity is rare and incredibly appreciated. The quality of work was top-notch. He did pressure testing to see if I actually had a major leak or if was from outside water. Everything was completed with precision and care, and you can immediately tell he takes real pride in his craft. He showed up on time, worked efficiently, kept the area clean, and made sure everything was functioning perfectly before leaving. True professionalism from beginning to end. If you're looking for a plumber who is reliable, skilled, and genuinely cares about doing the job right, Robert and All-Service Plumbing are the ones to call. Highly, highly recommended and is the only Plumber that I will call in the future that hopefully I will not need anytime soon. God Bless you Robert.

They worked closely with me to pick the right brick panels and paint. The faux brick tiling was a great cost-saving alternative for the small area to be tiled. Del and Luis were hands-on, professional, and accommodating to the special tasks required for this type of tiling. They ensured that I was 150% happy, returning to add features to secure the tiles better, improve the look, and add additional paint. I'm very happy with the result. My kitchen looks more stylish, with a clean, sleek finish. Thanks, Del!
