Precision Home Improvement absolutely crushed it--start to finish, this was exceptional service. From the first contact to the final install, everything was fast, professional, and dialed-in. Derek didn't waste time, didn't overcomplicate anything, and didn't leave me chasing updates. He listened to what I needed, moved with urgency, and delivered exactly what he promised. The door installation at my home was done promptly, with quality workmanship, and with the kind of efficiency you only get from a crew that truly knows what they're doing. I'm a working professional and I rarely have time to slow down for home projects--Precision Home Improvement made it painless. Derek and his team showed up ready, handled the replacement quickly, kept everything clean and organized, and the finished result looks solid, clean, and professionally installed. I can't say enough about this company. This is the type of business I respect and want to support--especially here in San Diego and throughout San Diego County. If you want a company that communicates, shows up, works hard, and gets it done right the first time, Precision Home Improvement is it. As a veteran, I highly recommend Precision Home Improvement to both the local community and the military community. If Derek is available, hire him with confidence--no hesitation. read more

I can confidently say after a second time hiring Derek for another fence build that you're not going to beat the quality of his work, his prices, and his honesty. Not too many times does someone quote you a price then after all the materials are paid for, he lowers the price because the materials paid for were less than originally estimated. Do yourself a solid and stop wasting time researching and calling everyone else for a competing price. Derek's price IS what everyone else has to compete with. He's definitely my go to guy for repair work while my house is being rented out. read more

Long overdue review. A portion of our fence blew over after the heavy rain. Derek was prompt and professional in his communication, and he came out to our house the next day. Derek provided a competitive quote and did an excellent job. We're so happy that we've found a reliable handyman for future issues! read more

Derek did an amazing work in installing an exterior door and security door for our condo. He is meticulous and very detailed. We also asked him to removed an old air conditioner wall unit on the following day. Derek and Kenny both showed up on time and completed the work in less than 3 hours. They patched the wall with the same top quality and detailed work. Derek does excellent work at reasonable price. He does not cut corners and produces a high quality work. Thank you Derek! read more

Derek built a fence that is so professionally done for me recently. It was also on a slight grade, which makes the job exponentially more difficult. His price was 1/3 Of some of the quotes that I received and the work was professionally done. Highly recommended! read more

Derek installed an exterior French door for us. He first came by to do an in home consultation in which he explained the process clearly and provided a very competitive quote. We stayed in contact until our door was delivered, which took about a month, he was very responsive with the updates. We scheduled the install right away, everything looks great and functions as intended, he came by the next day to add trim and patch up the drywall and stucco. Derek is a true professional and overall good guy, I highly recommend using his services. Thanks again! read more

You know how these things start. You open your mailbox and find out that the HOA has been watching your home again. You know, the people who were Karens way before we had a collective name for the personality type? In my case, the HOA was big mad about some small holes in a window screen. Now I didn't notice these holes because I don't routinely photograph my windows with a telephoto lens from the bushes like I'm some kind of weirdo. The HOA folks in my neighborhood did, however. Despite their behavior, I'm somehow the guy that gets the nasty letter. Anyhow, that's not the point. The point is that I needed to have my windows re-screened. And I needed it done quickly because the HOA said they were very eager to come back and take even more pictures of my windows when I may (or may not) be walking around in the buff. This is where Derek at Precision comes in. He's like the opposite of the HOA Karen. I reached out with my request, he set up an appointment immediately. He was on time for that appointment (this is never happened in the history of home repair before last Friday). He was quick to communicate, friendly and helpful. Then get this, the work was completed early and for the actual quoted amount. And it was done well. Remember that for every HOA, there's a decent company like this to help out. Thanks again for the quick turnaround and quality work. Will use again read more

I had a few odd ball things needing done and Derek responded to me right away and got it all taken care of next day! Derek and Kenny cut and installed a bifold door for a small pantry, installed shelving in that pantry, installed some frosted window film, installed some blinds, installed a ring doorbell and fixed some previous bad work done in my bedroom closet. These guys were efficient and proficient! .. and not to mention, didn't charge an arm and a leg. Very satisfied and Derek will definitely be my "go to" guy when needing some work done! read more

Very rude! Good luck to the way he respond to you not professional at all! It might be worth looking into his reviews from everybody before using him. To his answer below that's not true, all I will say is use him and you will see what I mean. He work more harder to getting bad reviews on him removed then his handyman work. I have the receipts for every job he has done and he got what he ask for. This time around he gave me price for two things $100 to add screw to toilet seat he originally installed 7 months ago and broke. The $100 also he said would include him putting two brackets up in my back dean to hang curtains. So $100 he wanted to charge to fix seat he didn't install properly earlier this year and two brackets to hang my curtains up. I couldn't afford $100 at the time so I gave him $30 to $40 bucks he charged me to fix's toilet seat he originally installed earlier this year. So now I can afford the brackets I tell him I have $40 to $50 which would be around the price he was going to charge when he came out first time to fix toilet. Also if I'm asking if you can come to do something for a price. Professional way is saying no it will be this price and no discount for you no matter how much work I have done for you with some of work that was messing up. Messed up on toilet seat and my son door he good for a cheap price and needing something rigged temporary but the prices he charging like if he's 5 star. If I need to keep editing post to his lies he tell I will. Just go ahead and book appointment with him he's a hit and Miss handyman you don't know what job he will get done properly! Good luck. He also act like he knew what paint to use on my walls and screwed my whole living room up but saying I'm low balling. Only thing he did good was re screen my windows he just didn't place back on where some screens had gaps not sealed in properly he had to come back out to fix bend screen bottom to not have a crack after putting screen back on . He placed new window in my home that do not stay up I have to keep a stick there to get air in my home. You know he a lie. Said I try to low ball him look how much money he got from me in the beginning of March 2022 look at the description and what he charge me and my sister for each things he done on pictures attaché to this post . Then I ask him to come fix his mess and do one job I think he can do and put brackets up with his drill that I don't have to do on my on And I get all this rudeness. read more

I've been having a tough time finding someone to replace a side-entry door in our garage before we came across Derek. He was incredibly responsive and communicative throughout the whole process. He was able to accommodate a screen door install and did a great job on replacing the exterior door and touching up on all the stucco, saving me the time on finding someone else to complete that. Definitely recommend! read more

I contacted Precision Home Improvement Services to hang some curtains, shelves, and pictures. I spoke to Derek on the phone twice about the job, tools needed, and setup an installation time. He came over, and when I told him again the shelves needed to be installed into studs (not anchors, and it came with the proper screws for studs) he said he doesn't have a reliable stud finder and didn't want to buy one. I was immediately very unhappy that he wasted my time, and showed him the door. He also reeked of smoke, and was not wearing a mask. I would STAY AWAY from doing business with this company, as they are unprofessional, not properly equipped for even easy job, and don't take personal COVID safety seriously as evidenced by not wearing a mask. read more

Derek is a class act! I have an older home with some weird structural placements of doors and windows, and was on a tight timeline. I hired Derek to move 1 exterior doorway and 2 doors, do some door replacements, and open up a non-load-bearing wall. His price was fair and he scheduled to come do the work within 2 days of seeing the job. Derek and Kenny did excellent work and had great insight for me through the whole process. Derek was communicative and answered a ton of questions. Based on their great work on those projects, I hired them to tackle a number of other tasks that ranged in technical experience. Derek was always prompt, communicative, and did quality work. I would refer him for any of your door, window, or framing jobs. read more

I hired Derek to repair a heavy gate that was leaning. Very quick response and he and his helper did a great job. Will be using them again for sure. read more

Check his work if you decide to hire him. We hired Derek, the sole owner and operator for a simple drywall patch and window screen replacement job, which he claimed would be done in an afternoon. Neither was finished before he angrily walked off the job. He did the drywall patching without protecting our carpets, which we now have to have cleaned. He claimed that he couldn't finish because he didn't have a product he needed (Orange Peel Wall Texture) and that there was a "national shortage". A simple internet search turned up thousands of units of it all over San Diego. We showed him the listings and he claimed that he couldn't get it because if he went to the store people would be fighting over it, there was such a terrible shortage. We pointed out that the patches were uneven and he told us they were supposed to be that way. He claimed that it would "all work itself out" once we put the Orange Peel on. We reminded him that he'd already committed to putting the Orange Peel on and he admitted that it was part of his job, but said that he didn't know if/when he could finish it. Our window screens didn't fit in our windows. There were large gaps between the screens and the sills which he claimed was the proper way for a window screen to be installed. When we said we didn't think the window screens would work because bugs could get in he claimed that it was our responsibility to make them bug-proof by using weatherproofing tape to fill in the gaps. When we told him that we thought it was possible for window screens to be installed without needing additional sealing with tape he accused us of undermining him in front of his client (we are clients) and told us that if we thought we could do it better we should do it ourselves, then he walked off the job. Then he came back and knocked on our door because he'd forgotten his phone. We went and found his phone for him, and tried to have a calm, polite conversation with him. Unfortunately he was still in a rage, and all he could do was insist that if we thought we knew how a window screen should be installed we should do it ourselves, then he cussed at us and left again. Now we're out 80% of the money for the job that isn't done (to his credit Derek did tell me I could keep the final payment for the job) and it looks like we'll have to hire a different company to come out and correct his mistakes. read more

***MULTIPLE YELPERS IDENTIFY AS BAD QUALITY OF WORK..... BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*** Who wants to do business with a Salty guy like this!?!?!?!? He claims His work is quality but there are multiple reviews on here that say OTHERWISE!!!!! He says I'm unproffesional for finding someone cheaper and respectfully notifying him the day before my "APPOINTMENT" when in reality I found someone cheaper within 5 min of talking to him. Based on the attached message below and the negative reviews he has on YELP his proffesionalism, WORK, and ATTITUDE is definitely in question!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Derek did a fantastic job installing my 14 new windows! My attempted DIY installation went awry because I mismeasured the window openings, but Derek knew how to fix it easily with the right tools. He worked seamlessly and quickly throughout the entire process, right down to the window insulation and trim. Very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I will be calling Derek again for future jobs. Highly recommend. read more

Fixed a badly sagging door same day, as well as another door's bad door knob. Gave me a quote day two for a variety of other jobs around the house, which were completed on day three. Work included fixing a cabinet door, installing a hatch that was surprisingly good to cover a drywall hole from plumbing fix in the past by another contractor. Also wall-mounted two tvs, stained and installed some crown moulding, and fixed a baseboard. Responsive and communicative. Good work at a fair price on short notice. Friendly workers. I will hire Derek again. read more

I purchased a new door for my bathroom and it was installed by someone else incorrectly. I had that person come back a few times and it still wasn't fixed. So I decided to cut my losses and just live with it. Fast forward 2.5 years, the door started rubbing on the casing and had a large gap when the door was closed. I found Derek and read his reviews and decided to give him a chance to try and fix my door. He responded to my inquiry extremely fast, I gave him a call and to my luck he was available to come out the next morning. He came the next morning, showed me what was wrong and gave me several options on how to fix it. His prices are extremely competitive and he fixed my door. I also found out he installs windows as well, so I plan on getting a quote from him for that as well. I highly recommend him. read more

First off, let me say that where Derek excels is in communication. He responds immediately to texts and calls. Secondly, he also excels in availability. He made our project his project, and our schedule his priority, even though he had other things going on. We needed a wall between our kitchen and our living room demolished, and the master bathroom torn out as well. Derek tore out the wall, labeled all of the wires for the electrician, and left the work area spotless. The same thing in the bathroom - he tore out the old shower and left the area spotless. He jackhammered the kitchen floor so that we could run electricity and gas to a new kitchen island, and did the concrete patching. He worked closely with his (excellent) electrician to keep the project going forward. Again, he left the area spotless at the end of each day. He facilitated our getting our pretty major remodel done in three weeks. He worked around cabinet installers, flooring guys and tiling guys, doing the extra jobs that needed to be done. His pricing is beyond fair, and he is an incredibly hard worker. read more

Absolutely outstanding service. Derek is so responsive professional, friendly and customer oriented. He kept me updated on the project at all times and the end product was superior. A friend viewed the job completion and mentioned the work is perfect. If you want a job, project done right the first time every time--Derek is your guy. He made time for me and got the job done quickly! Quality service all around! Huge Thank you to Derek! I will definitely use his services again! read more

Derek and team moved my front door location and a window. He provided a very competitive price and gave me a clear work plan.

The work itself was solid and they paid a good amount of attention to detail. They knew what they were doing! Derek was a joy to work with and would definitely recommend his team for your projects. read more

Derek replied to my request for a quote almost immediately and was very nice and knowledgeable.

My wife is very disappointed with work done on the install of our bathroom door. It looks like an amateur did the work. There are gaps all over on the frame that were filled in with calk, the door does not stay closed completely, and there is a large gap on the inside of the door. In general for the money we paid we did not get a professional job. read more

Derek was very friendly, showed up on time, and did a great job. I would be happy to hire him again for future jobs.

From initial phone call to installation, I had my security door installed in 4 hours. I'm lucky that he was available and did what he said he would. So grateful for Derek and his work. 10 outta 10 would recommend and will be using him for other projects moving forward. read more

Mr. Elliot was not only professional, on time, and kind but we was respectful and very knowledgeable as well. I did my best to put my console together but Derek did a great job putting it back together for me. Thank you again Derek. I will definitely hire and refer him to friends and colleagues. read more

Buyer Beware. I hired Derek the sole owner and operator to replace a bedroom door for me. I took weeks before he came over to take the measurements and then when he finally came over to replace the door the it was the wrong size. He took the door on my rooftop and trimmed it down and failed to secure the screw in the bottom hinge causing the door to scrap against my wooden floors/ the door does not open or close properly. I contacted Derek to come and fix these errors and he became irate and nasty and very unprofessional refusing to fix what he had failed to do without charging me $60 an hour for his bad work. I highly do not recommend this guy to work for anyone in home improvement. read more

When we bought our condo, we decided to do as much renovation ourselves as possible. Part of that was installing a hallway closet. But after we bought our materials, it became apparent that we lacked the tools and experience to do it properly. We searched around online for estimates, with the majority of responses coming from big name companies who only cared to say that they had very high minimums regardless of work (which they wouldn't even bother asking specifics about). Then I got a response from Derrick at Precision home Improvement services. I had a good feeling just by him asking a few specific questions, including to see the hallway and the closet materials. He did this before providing an estimate. I knew right then I found our guy. He came out a few days later, explained everything he was going to do, did it and in my opinion, came out as good as any of the "big time" companies would have done. Great rate, handshake deal kind of attitude - very personable. Definitely worth your business and I highly recommend if you have a project that he can do. read more
