I called to get an estimate for my porch and house to be power washed. Robert was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He was punctual and the Quote was a good price. I like to get at least 3 quote and his was second so I haven't chose a service provider yet, but it good to see Companies like Roberts that make a difference and provide great service. read more

My husband and I are seniors and retired. Our experience with Robert Temple of Professional Services in Brighton, MI got progressively worse each time we hired him. Definitely buyer beware. The first time, he power washed our house and fixed some screens. He did a pretty good job, but afterward complained our house was really dirty and did not fix all the screens as agreed. In hindsight, we thought the complaining was a little strange, but we let it go. . We hired him again to remove leaves from the lawn in the fall and to remove wood chips from several stumps which had been ground down. He did not remove the wood chips. I had to call him back to complete the job. He complained he would have to bring a crew back again but he cleaned up the chips. THEN THE LAST STRAW this past summer of 2019: We contacted him to power wash and stain our deck and a small balcony, install two windows in our bedroom, and fix some loose siding. THE DECK: We had just installed a new wood patio door and asked him to cover it with plastic before power washing and staining the deck.....he said he would but did not. He was all packed up and ready to go when I had to remind him he had not painted the small balcony. He grumbled but painted it. Our deck railing is wood and metal. We inspected his work after it had dried and noticed he had gotten paint on some of the metal parts and did not clean it up, the stain on the deck was thin and could be seen through in places, and where the deck met the house for at least 30-plus feet he sprayed white solid stain on the brick and left it there! THE SIDING: He said it could not be fixed without charging another $2000....but collected the original estimate of $250 for doing nothing. THE TWO UPSTAIRS WINDOWS: We showed him approximately where we wanted the windows to go, if possible. Even though we told him we were not sure how large the windows could be to avoid running into the downstairs roof line, he apparently did not measure. He ordered windows and when he came back to install them, the first one went fine and looked great. The second one, however, ran into the roof line and the bottom third of the window was actually covered by the roof. He suggested that I either have him put some white flashing over the bottom third of the window and leave it like that.....OR.push the windows up to within 1.5 inches of the ceiling, making it impossible to install the crown molding. I told him neither option was acceptable and told him he was supposed to have measured to determine what size windows could be used. He said it was difficult to know???!!! I told him we relied on him to determine this important part of the project. By this time, he was getting angry and being rude to me. My husband was 15 minutes away. I told him I wanted him to deal with my husband, I would go get him, and not to do anything further until I got back. He told me he could not wait around all day and he was not making any money on this project!.....but he agreed to wait until I got back.......BUT as soon as I left, he cut an even bigger hole in my wall and pushed the window up to the ceiling anyway. We were not happy at all. Robert was angry because he was going to have to order the correct size windows and wanted to charge us an extra $1000. I said 'no' we were not going to pay extra for his mistake; he would have to make this right. My husband finally agreed to split the cost of the correct windows AND allow Robert to take the incorrect windows we had already paid for. LONG STORY SHORT......He eventually VERY sloppily installed the new windows, put some dry wall mud over all the cut up drywall on my wall, and told us we could sand it and fix it as necessary. I could not even go in and look at this mess for quite a while....BUT WHEN I DID.....I noticed the windows are not level with each other.....so apparently he did not measure appropriately again. We still don't have this all straightened out yet. This was something I had wanted to do for a long time and was supposed to improve our property value, but we could have done a better job ourselves. Robert was rude, disrespectful, unprofessional, and he ripped us off. He actually put his sign on our front lawn and I removed it as soon as he drove out of our driveway so none of our neighbors would think they should give him a try. Definitely would not recommend. We learned our lesson. read more

I hired Robert to do two interior rooms. He was very helpful and knowledgeable when asked for recommendations in color, which I very much appreciated. I went with his suggestions and could've been happier! The job was done quickly, efficiently, reasonably and excellent quality. I will definitely use their services again. I would highly recommend Professional Services! read more

Robert is punctual and very affordable. He does good work!

Robert and his crew did an incredibly sloppy job. We had a few rooms and molding painted, as well as some bathroom cabinets. Stay far far away. Our expectations and his were very different when it came to level of quality. He rushed through the entire job and it showed. He mentioned if there was anything we saw that was unsatisfactory to point it out to him. Once things were politely pointed out, he was argumentative with us. He was aggressive in his tone with both of us at different times. We said we weren't going to pay him in full until some of the things were fixed to our liking, and he demanded he get his money. Extremely unprofessional! He got most of his money unfortunately, we withheld the last piece until he was supposed to come back out and fix some of the issues we pointed out, and we never heard back from him. read more

Robert owes me money. He needed items repaired which I did and then decided he didn't want to pay for services rendered. He was extremely verbally nasty about anything to do with paying once the services were rendered. Instead of honoring the full amount agreed to, he shot back and said, "$5 is what I will pay you come and get it". He's a F@#$. He also wanted to require that instead of providing payment on site that I come back or meet him on his time when he would have the money. He never paid me. He is a crook in my book. He thinks low of people and only does the work he needs to do. I would avoid him. GL read more

I hired Robert to powerwash and seal concrete for me. I was initially impressed with how fast he was able to get in and do the job for me. That is where it ended. He improperly sealed the concrete so it bubbled. When I brought this up to him he said he would come back and take a look. I heard nothing and after a week and contacted him. He said he came by and addressed it. Not sure if he did or didn't because it actually was worse with the more bubbles and flaking. I then set up a time when we were supposed to meet at my house and he blew off that time because he had someplace to go. Didn't have the courtesy to say he couldn't make it, so my time wasted. When I did hear back from him, he said his schedule was full moving forward and that he'd add me as a service call when he had a chance. Highly recommend to not use his services due to sloppy, improperly done job as well has poor customer service. read more

We have hired Robert several times to wash windows and paint. We have found him to be prompt, both in arrival on the job and in responding to service requests. His rates are reasonable and he is willing to tackle challenging home maintenance tasks. We have never had a problem with the quality of his work. Our experience is that he works with a helpful manner and is a pleasure to interact with. Will continue to use and recommend to others. read more

I hired Robert Temple in August, 2015, to paint and install a front door. He had done window washing and deck staining before when I lived in Pinckney. He did a fairly good job then. My last contact with him in August, 2015, was a disaster. He did not do a good job at painting the door. There was roller fuzz on the door and the paint job was bumpy. The door was difficult to open after. It was covered with too much paint. I told him he bought the wrong kind of door knob and the trim had to be white, not black, because I live in a condo complex that requires specifications. He kept painting it black and yelling at me that I was not paying him to go get materials. If he can't remember what the knob, what the front and back and trim of the old door looked like, he should have taken a picture and written some notes when he wrote up the estimate. My old door was painted white before on the back which was inside the house. He also painted that black. That paint job had fuzz and bumps on it. He was supposed to powerwash and paint my egress window area. That was written on the estimate. He told me he was not power washing it. They would just be painting it. He was very hostile toward me. I did not say another word because I was quite afraid of him. I asked one of his workers what was wrong with him. He just shrugged his shoulders. I simply went inside the house, wrote a check for what he asked me to write it for, but didn't deserve, and told him to leave. I was happy to get him out of my house. I told him I would not be needing his services to finish the other projects I hired him for. He, in a manner of speaking, stole money from me. But I was not going to argue with him. I would not hire him. Buyer beware! read more
