Beyond just fixing my basement, he considered every detail for our intended use. The team left my property in perfect condition upon finishing the project.

Michael was quick to respond, stopped by to give me an estimate/clearly assess the situation, and ultimately gave me two options: make the entire cover over or do this smaller fix. I also received quotes from 3 other companies and they only gave me the first option. He was reliable and I am so happy with the work. He's detail oriented and professional. I will definitely call him again if I need work done in my apartment!

Setting up an appointment was easy, price was reasonable and Michael was quick and friendly and efficient, and even gave me some pointers for how to hang things on the walls of our old pre-war apt. Between the pleasantness of dealing with him and solid work and great samples on their site, we hired Michael to design a built-in shelving unit for our living room, and simply couldn't be happier with the results. The fit is perfect and the look amazing - feel like they look much more expensive and luxurious than what they cost, both in expense as well as time/effort on our part, as Michael was so easy to communicate with. Most people might think of the phrases 'handyman' and 'craftsman' as mutually exclusive, but Michael and his company represent that rare and wonderful exception that run the gamut--equally adept at handling basic repairs as well as large-scale undertakings. You would be fortunate to hire them for any work around your home, large or small.

His estimate was reasonable for the amount of work to be done and very competitive with estimates I had already received from five other contractors. Andrew and his assistant Matt took about two days to transform my kitchen into something really sharp. Andrew was very thorough and even took care of some odds and ends that were left by the builder (and previous contractor who installed the counter top). Also, Andrew was very neat - he covered the counter top to avoid any damage or stains and swept the floor after both days of working. After they left, you would never know that two people were sawing tiles and working with grout and tile adhesive all day. I wouldn't hesitate to book Andrew for any other jobs I need done around the apartment. It was a five-star experience from start to finish and I'm glad I found the Handy Andy Squad.

James is a pleasure to work with (so easy going and professional) and he is always around working and managing during the project. For the work A Better Craft did for my project - see below. WORK COMPLETED: Painted my unfinished basement from top to bottom (including painting and tacking up messy wires and finding a way to conceal them), smoothed over an uneven concrete basement floor, patched up parts of the ceiling where you could see the rafters, installed recessed lights and moved electrical outlets, built a closet with doors that his team constructed from a picture I showed them, patched up and painted my cracking concrete steps in the front and back of my house, installed a ceiling fan in my bedroom, hung heavy gym wall mirrors on the concrete walls in my basement, eliminated my rodent issue by adding wood siding under my steps and deck and had my iron gate repaired in front of my home. James is a talented painter and he knows his team well in addition to knowing all the local hardware, paint, and electrical stores which helps with product and pricing. You will enjoy working with A Better Craft!
