We had Roman repair a window that was leaking earlier this year. However, the repair didn't hold during the recent rain storm. The same window was leaking again in the same spots. We emailed him to ask about coverage for previous work he's done and basically it's been crickets, no reply from him. Unfortunately, we'll need to look elsewhere to get the repairs done. read more

Had a kitchen tiled floor removed and replaced with linoleum. Roman was prompt with his response, gave us a recommendation on where to go to select and purchase the linoleum and the next day he gave us a price for removing the tile floor and installing the new. Once the we accepted his bid it was less than a week to schedule the demo and installation. Roman was easy to work with, did the job when he said he would and on budget. We're pleased with the results and would recommend Roman and his company. read more

I contacted Roman about a project in my home. He let me know they'd come by for an estimate at 3pm when they finished another job. By 4pm I asked if they still intended to come, or to at least give me a time frame for when they might show up. No reply. Suffice to say that it's challenging to take time off work for these appointments, and I really don't want to be giving out my address to people who aren't going to show up. read more

Excellent service - I absolutely recommend this business. Roman arrived on time, worked quickly and cleaned up after himself. He did some repairs on our chicken coop and built us several raised beds. The quality of work was high and the price was fair. He is easy reach via phone or text and responds quickly. He's also friendly and pleasant. We will use him again for household projects in the future. read more

Roman is very responsive and nice guy. He stopped by our house to check the situation with concrete tile roof. His estimate was quick and reasonable. I'd hire them again and highly recommend them. read more

Had Roman back to fix more water damage on railings and porch steps. He did an excellent job once more. He is super responsive, came by shortly after texting him to assess the damage and provide a quote. He works super quickly and fixed a handful of other things along the way. Super happy with the work! read more

I hired roman to add a ventilation system to the attic along with a couple other jobs. We recently redid our roof and I had our roofer come out and take a look and he is going to have to redo the install. Not great. read more

We had Roman come out to fix some broken siding in a really cramped corner of our building. This was a really inconvenient job that most other contractors/handymen weren't willing to come fix. Roman came out with materials ready and was willing & able to fix it at the cheapest quote we received. Because this is a really hidden/not visible corner of the house, we weren't really looking for 'quality craftsmanship' or anything like that. We just needed the holes patched so that rats/mice would stop using the space as their nest. Overall we are happy with the results. Thank you Roman! read more

We've hired Roman and his crew for two jobs now, one to remove a fence and another to look into a leaky roof (which resulted in patching the roof and replacing part of a ceiling). For both he was very fast to reply to our request for quotes on Yelp, and for both he sent someone over within an hour or two, which was amazing. We are very satisfied with the work done for each problem. Roman is himself very responsive and easy to communicate with, though it was sometimes a struggle to overcome language barriers with his other employees. At least two times during the second job workers showed up over an hour after the scheduled arrival window with no notice, which was frustrating and made it hard to plan our day around the work (maybe this is common practice with contractors, but I expect a call or a text if they're going to be late). We would definitely work with R&D again. Our ceiling looks great! read more

Dependable and great work at a fair price. Very punctual. Roman said he'd arrive between 10 and 11AM, and R&D appeared a few minutes before 10! Initially, Roman felt his ladder was too short to reach the awning we wanted removed, but he kept looking and thinking about how the job could be done. And sure enough, he got it done in less than two hours! We had another handyman, who had offered to do the work for $650, which is less than what R&D charged, but that handyman didn't have insurance for what was a somewhat risky job. Handyman Heroes came and raised their estimate from $600 to $4,500, saying they needed two guys to work 8 hours and rent a scaffold and pay to dispose the fabric somewhere!!! read more

Roman replaced some dry rot on my roofs rafters. Reasonable pricing. Great craftsmanship. I would recommend this business for friends and family. Excellent service. read more

Just want to add another terrific review for Roman and his team. They replaced an exterior door that had swollen during our recent rains and was no longer operable. His team quickly removed the old door and replaced it with a nice new one! Their attention to detail was excellent--ensuring that the door trim was carefully replaced, tidily caulking the seams... In addition to the door replacement, his team also did some odd jobs that had been on my to-do list (reattaching a very large window blind, replacing a dryer vent...). All done efficiently and perfectly. Roman will always be my go-to help with home repairs, large or small. read more

I can't begin to say enough great things about Roman and his excellent crew. We initially hired him to install wainscoting in an old bathroom with damaged wallpaper. He told us where to go to see what we wanted, then picked up everything himself. He was always punctual and came when he said he would come. The results were so professional, guests told me it looked like it had always been there. We also had him look at a wet wall in the downstairs bathroom while he was here. We knew we might have a problem, but we didn't know how bad it would be, with a broken sewer pipe he discovered behind it! Since we had discarded the old tiles a few years ago, he and his team ended up basically redoing almost everything, efficiently and with great attention to detail. The whole thing took about a week and a half, and on the last day of work on the bathroom, our funky washing machine gave a last gasp, leaking water all over the basement carpet. Roman didn't miss a beat and stepped right in to help us. Four days later now, we have new tiling on the floor of our washer/dryer area and new appliances coming tomorrow. Roman is a godsend. I am truly impressed. Thanks to all of you who wrote such good reviews here, since reading them prompted me to give him that initial call about the wainscoting. His fees are very reasonable, and I didn't feel like I had to go looking for other quotes for any of this. He kept us updated daily, would frequently check in, and gave us an accurate finish date for all three projects. On top of everything, he is a genuinely delightful guy, proud of his work, and a pleasure to work with. read more

Roman was very professional and organized. He provided a clear written proposal and followed up with great work. His first project was to rebuild an exterior stair in the backyard, which came out great. Since then, we hired him again for several repair items and again he was great. Thanks Roman! read more

While scheduling can be a bit challenging, Roman is a fantastic, hard-working contractor with a positive "can-do" attitude, and he is able to get things done on the competitive and affordable side of the spectrum. We definitely plan to consider hiring him again if we have other repair needs or construction projects in the future. read more

Roman did a laundry list of work in our cafe and it was a pleasure to work with him and his team. He communicates well, charges a reasonable price, and made sure we were satisfied before calling the job complete. I will be reaching out again if we need more odd-jobs done in the future. read more

Roman and his crew were great! I had some siding that needed to be repaired and he was able to fix it. A couple others that I had come by said they weren't sure how to fix it but he got it done! Cleaned up after and made sure I was happy with work. Would hire again! read more

Roman fixed some water issues on the rear of our house. Replaced exterior siding and interior drywall, and sealed / painted inside and out. Great work, good communication, and reasonable price. We will work with him again. read more

Roman came out promptly to fix an area of loose siding on my home. Communicated with me prior to job and gave me his quote after sending him some pics of the problem. Finished job quickly and fairly. Honest guy- I almost overpaid him and he corrected me on our agreed on price for the job. He also pointed out some other issues on my siding that needed attention and offered to come back as another job- but no hard sell and he really seemed to know exactly what I needed. Gave me his quote for next job right then and there. Highly recommended. read more

Had them install plywood in attic for storage, done in under 2 hours and at a great price. Threw in a little cat step for our cat door with some scrap material I had. Fast and clean. No messes left behind. Very professional. read more

Very responsive, and did a great job on my project caulking some 2nd story windows.

Contacted several places for an estimate on taking out a sky light fixture and to repair wall and ceiling. Asked that all materials will be included. Got several estimates but I went will Roman even though he was not the lowest, he seems that most knowledgable. We talked about the scope of the project and then he informed me that materials were not included in quote. He quoted about $200 more for the special paint I wanted to use. I didn't want to do the job right away. We had planned a vacation and I had 2 dogs don't like guest so we had to make arrangements for them. Roman was very flexible with our schedule. When the day arrived, Roman's worker did a good job but wanted to finish that day. But it was getting late and we had dinner plans. So they came back the next day to finish up. Roman texted me the bill for the materials and I paid it not really looking at it. When Roman's worker finished and took all the garbage with them and paid the balance. I finally looked at the materials bill. Some things I thought that was included was not. ie - the tape and the mud that goes on hiding the seams of the drywall. And some things I didn't expect to be there...like Rope,(?) Taping Knives(set of 3), Sanding Sponge, Gloves 5 pack. (I didn't get any of these things back). If anything I should have gotten 3 gloves back. Why did they need 5 sets? They also used (never asked if they can use it) my disposable paint tray, and a rolling brush that was laying around in my garage. I just found the packaging just left there. I felt like they nickel and dime me. But overall Roman's crew did a good job but wish Roman showed up so we discuss things. Here are some pictures of the job. Some area I wish he painted to cover the stained wall. read more

Roman was responsive, came on time, and quoted me a fair price to re-caulk our bathroom shower. He did good work at a fair price and was really efficient. Would hire again! read more

Roman was quick to respond to my request for a quote, the initial visit and the follow up work. His quote was very reasonable and his workmanship was top quality. I recommend him without hesitation. A great source for smaller jobs-many contractors do not do them. read more

Our house, like may of the others in Bay Area, suffered from water damage during the storm in January. I had called around half a dozen contractor and handyman services but Roman was the only one who gave a reasonable (middle of the range) quote and could start work immediately, instead of at least 2-4 weeks out. His crew member, Daniel, was diligent and hard working. They finished covering flood cuts in the drywall, wood foundation cover, painting, and carpet install for the ~144 sq ft family room within a week. Most importantly, when I complained about dust or had questions about the work in progress, Roman and Daniel were super responsive and receptive to the feedback. I liked the way they worked so much that I actually asked them to paint our large outdoor deck as well and will definitely be hiring them for other projects in the house. read more

Roman is awesome. Did a great job - was responsive, great communication, quality work. I'd hire him again.

I've used R&D a lot since I moved into town. The owner Roman does good work, is responsive, and gets things done quick. Highly recommend!

The work quality was top notch. The holes in my wall were repaired to the point where no noticeable work had been done. They even matched the paint (which was difficult to do) perfectly. I scheduled an appointment 2 weeks in advance for a 2 day patch/paint job. The price I was quoted was $600 USD. The problems started on day 1. I got a text 2 minutes before the job was supposed to start asking for a delay. The appointment was rescheduled for the afternoon. The employee (not Roman) showed up a half hour late. For the most part, he was very professional and started well. He was on his phone for about half the work time. During his work, I received a phone call from Roman, stating that the patch was bigger than expected and would require an additional $50, to which I agreed. I was told he would need to come back the next day for another application of wall patch before he could paint. Day 2, the same employee shows up a half hour late. Again he got right to work, but was on his phone a lot. He had to leave to get more materials (vacuum cleaner, putty knife) and wouldn't be back until the afternoon. I couldn't be there, so my wife was on deck to monitor him. Again, he showed up a half hour late, and was on the phone arguing loudly with someone while he was on the phone. He mentioned that he had to get a heater to dry the wall and that he would be back. After an hour and a half I (not my wife) received a phone call that he would not be coming back that day, and they would need to come back in the morning to set up the heater and dry the wall. Day 3, Roman himself comes in the morning and on time!! I must admit, I was surprised in a good way. After placing the heater he started discussing prices with me. He told me the patch would be an additional $350 USD because it was bigger than expected (which is not the price he told me on day one) and that the painting would be an additional $100 USD, which jumped up to $150 USD when I mentioned that the original price for the wall patch was only $50 USD extra per our phone conversation. I also told him about his employee's tendency to talk on the phone during his work and expressed my displeasure with the constant tardiness. Roman told me the wall would take 7 hours to dry and that it would be painted that evening. We parted ways. That evening I came back and a different employee had arrived, on time, and got right to work. The work took exactly how long Roman said it would, and the employee worked rigorously to ensure that would be the case. That second employee (I can't remember his name) was one of the hardest working individuals I'd ever met in my life. He and Roman are great workers and are dedicated to providing a top notch service, although some of his employees are late at times. The work is fantastic, and I would recommend this service to anyone with a job need, but be prepared to spend more time than you were told for the job to be completed. read more

Did not show up on the scheduled date on two separate occasions. Did not provide any notice or ask to reschedule in advance. I waited an hour both times before having to call him and find out he wasn't coming. I decided to find a different contractor after the second time. read more

Roman was very quick to respond, and came out to look at my problem. I thought I needed a new door, he told me "the door is fine, just needs a trim" and just like that every problem I had with my door was fixed. His price was unbeatable and the work of his team was great. I look forward to our next projects. read more

I never do these reviews, but Roman earned it. He was the first to respond on Yelp when I was looking for a contractor; he gave a clear, reasonable quote after he came out to look at my project; and he's been helpful and responsive after everything was all done. He and his team did a great job installing a Tuff Shed from foundation to tricking it out on the inside, for a home office space. And even when something came up months later (not his fault), he was at my house in 30 minutes to address it. He's my new go-to guy, and highly recommended. read more

Very professional and hard working .. taking ownership always recommend best options.very reasonable price.highly recommended.
