The Handyman Plan

I've hired Cesar to do some small jobs since I met him several years ago. This time I asked him…read morefor a estimate on a large job involving demolishing and rebuilding a deck that we lost during Hurricane Helene. I was a little apprehensive initially but he insisted that he & his team could handle this job. Cesar worked on a good time schedule with me as I was in and out of town. him and his crew showed up on time and proceeded to work from morning till later afternoon.They picked up all product with no issues, carried bags of concrete up the ramp along with all the wood necessary without even a word of complaint. He wasn't wasteful and knew I was on some sort of budget which I really appreciated. Caesar and his team finished as scheduled and I must say the deck came out amazing. They cleaned up everything and did not leave any trash behind which many contractors have done. if I need something else I will shout out to Cesar again. Give him a call I don't think you will be disappointed. He seems like he would be ready to tackle most projects.

Cesar just completed floor installation in our newly purchased home. From our first conversation to…read morethe end of his work, he was efficient, professional, and hardworking. He was able to provide us a work quote and work us into his busy schedule. He also worked around our schedule as well. Our floors came out beautifully. While he was working, he was meticulous, careful, and speedy. He was very kind to interact with and it is clear that he is knowledgeable in his field. He was able to answer questions about other work we might want to do AND even recommended cost effective purchases we could make which wound up saving us money. We are very happy with the outcome. In the future, we will reach back out to Cesar when we are ready to improve our deck in the yard.

I came across Troy and his business The Right Hammer on Facebook and messaged to see if he'd be willing to take on the task, and on my less than optimal schedule. He responded quickly, and said that not only was he up for the task, but would be willing to work with my schedule and would be happy to come over on a Sunday morning without charging extra for working on a weekend. Upon his prompt arrival, Troy was pleasant and professional. He made short work of the faucet replacement, as well as taking on another task that I threw at him as a curve ball... removing an undersink water heater/dispenser. He didn't bat an eye, and all of the work was completed within an hour. I cannot say enough nice things about Troy and The Right Hammer. I am looking forward to using his services for a wide variety of tasks around my home that I have no clue on how to complete myself!

Southern Classic Roofing

4.0

I hired Southern Classic Roofing in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene to address damage to my roof,…read morespecifically the front slope, as outlined in my insurance adjuster's scope of work. The insurance payout for this portion of the roof was approximately $4,000. During the initial consultation, I was presented with options, and the company strongly recommended replacing the entire roof, stating they only used architectural shingles. As a first-time homeowner dealing with significant roof damage, I may have had somewhat high expectations. I opted to proceed with replacing only the damaged section as per the insurance scope, which they agreed to do for $4,000 via text. I paid a 50% deposit, and a few weeks later, on December 11, 2024, a crew arrived to perform the work. Notably, none of the individuals I had previously interacted with were present. Shortly after the crew completed the work, and based on the assumption that the agreed-upon work was completed, I paid the remaining balance. In February 2025, a subsequent windstorm resulted in shingles being blown off again. A new insurance inspection revealed significant issues: only approximately one-quarter of the roof had been replaced, and 3-tab shingles, not the architectural shingles I had assumed, were used. The adjuster also indicated improper installation. I contacted Southern Classic Roofing via email, expressing my concerns regarding the discrepancy between the work done and the agreed-upon scope and price. I emphasized feeling misled and requested a refund. A representative from Southern Classic Roofing responded, disputing the claim of improper installation. They stated that the $4,000 was used to replace the smaller section due to the need to repair underlying wood structure, a detail that was never communicated to me prior. They again recommended replacing the entire roof. I requested an itemized invoice, which was never provided. After further communication and another inspection by a representative, they agreed to return and replace the missing shingles and apply additional adhesive to other loose shingles. Nearly a month has passed, and this work has not been completed. While I appreciate the initial promptness in addressing the hurricane damage, I am ultimately dissatisfied with the quality of communication and the execution of the work. The discrepancy between the agreed-upon scope, the actual work performed, the materials used, the premature payment of the remaining balance, and the lack of transparency regarding the wood repairs has led to significant frustration. As a first time home owner, I do understand there is a learning curve, but I feel a more open line of communication would have prevented a lot of the issues I have encountered. I am now in the process of hiring another roofing contractor to replace the entire roof. My primary complaint is the lack of clear and consistent communication. I feel I was not given the necessary information to make informed decisions. I would not recommend this company.

This is the company you wish all companies were like. Prompt, fair, courteous, honest, transparent,…read morequality work (roof maintenance and pressure washing). Colby and his team did a great job, delivering everything they said they would and more. Very happy with Southern Classic's work and will look for more ways to hire them.

Our goal was to get our home ready for the real estate market by Spring 2015. I am pretty handy myself and had been doing most of the work up to the point where age, health, and experience told me that I was in need of some help. I found Arthur Teel on Craigslist.org. His ad was inviting. It led me to his website from which I filled out an inquiry. It was a matter of a day or two when Arthur called me and the dialog began. I was straight forward with him as to our objective and he almost immediately was able return a quote which was within our budget and a timeline as well.. The work began immediately! There was total transparency as the project progressed. He showed up when he said he would and was always a pleasure to work with. Never did he bring anything to the project other than professionalism and quality craftsmanship. He finished in a timely manner. We were able to get the home on the market, had immediate showings, and it was under contract within two weeks of listing at nearly our asking price! THANK YOU Arthur! We've all heard the horror stories about the less than reliable handyman who never shows up and his work is suspect. Not with Arthur Teel. He doesn't know it yet but I have a few additional projects in the near future. Call Arthur, he is loyal, honest, dependable, trustworthy, and overall a pleasure to work with! Henry L. read more

Having Arthur of The Handyman Plan come over to our house to build pantry shelves and help with several other small jobs that my husband and I were unable to do was a great experience.
