    Top side collar rusted to the bolt/nut.
    Eve H.

    Ted saved my bacon AND didn't make me feel stupid for not being as self-sufficient when I couldn't muscle or tool-out a fused outdoor umbrella stand post that was loose and I couldn't get off. Rusted solid, top and bottom. I had used WD-40, a sawzall, a bolt splitter, and even screwed into the cleft of the nut where it meets the bolt and sprayed in more WD-40 to loosen it up. I was out of energy AND power tools, and so put up a quote here on Yelp. He contacted me almost immediately, said he could come over within a few hours, texted me when he was leaving previous site, texted me when he got here, got right to it, removed the collar, bolt and nuts in no time (but I was relieved to see it was muscle work for him, too, so I wasn't a weakling...entirely). Can't thank Ted enough, and would recommend to others without hesitation.

    Broken kitchen drawer guide bracket.
    Andy R.

    I called on Ted Felix's handyman services twice this past week. The first was to fix a broken kitchen drawer guide (after being turned down by a number of cabinet installers who I guess don't take small jobs). Ted made quick work of the task and left telling me to call him if I had any further problems. A few days later, I called on Ted to help me get a couple of bidets installed on my toilets. I had attempted one of them but discovered that the supply valve still dripped water despite closing it as tightly as I could. Ted recommended replacing the toilet valve, so I asked him to replace the toilet valves in all 3 bathrooms. While he was at it, he also fixed the sink stopper in my powder room, and replaced the hoses to my washing machine because it had been 5 years since they were replaced. Ted is polite, friendly, and was quick to respond to my text messages (responding within a few minutes). Thus far, I've been very happy with his work and customer service.

    Caulked over old, moldy caulking
    Christopher L.

    I'd definitely not recommend this guy. The initial interaction was okay. He showed up and checked out the work on time. After checking it out, he'd said he'd check out material costs and get back with an estimate. Instead of doing that, he texts me two days later saying he's free and if he could do the job immediately, which was fine with me. At this point, it becomes apparent he didn't check out material costs since he was out shopping for the caulk and asks for photos (despite him already coming out to check out what I needed done). Didn't seem too bad, but I was busy in a meeting and snapped them hastily. At this point I ask the cost and he says $300 -- a bit expensive but whatever. He shows up a bit later and starts working. 2.5 hours later he informs me he's done. Job was a bit shoddy in the tiled shower, but I just wanted it caulked at this point and didn't say much. I was a bit irked also that he didn't test the caulk first to see if it matched the grout -- obviously it doesn't as seen in the pics. At this point he says the bathtub can be used in couple hours and the standing shower could be used 8 hours. He left behind the grey and clear caulks used in the shower which I ended up reading after he left. The clear one said an hour, but the grey caulking said don't use for 24 hours. Thought that was odd, but didn't think too much about it. Just to be safe, we waited 6 hrs before using the bathtub shower since we assumed he at least read that one correctly -- the pics show that it wasn't the case. The caulk started absorbing water and flaking off. I ended up texting him back the next day, and he seemed a bit standoffish about this, but said he'd come back later in the week. I texted a few days later and was ghosted. I'm going to need to re-do both at this point (3 months later) as he also caulked over old, moldy caulk in the standing shower. The new caulk already has mold/mildew seeping through. He also didn't redo all the caulk as asked.

    A circuit breaker goes out in one of our rentals in Signal Hill on Easter Sunday, and so I send feelers out on Yelp to see who is even available. Not looking good. Only half of the electrical expertise even work on Sundays (16). And only half of those will work during a pandemic (8). And half of those on Easter Sunday (4). Ted quoted half what the other guys quoted. He got there in 30 mins to pick up the dead circuit breaker, and then buys the right one at Home Depot. He pops it in, and he's done within the hour. The job was so quick that he lowered the price. He updated me on every step. Communication was excellent. When I received the invoice, I realized that Ted was the one who serviced the same unit for plumbing and window repair about a year prior. Needless to say, we look forward to working with him on all our other units in the area now.

    1: gaps around fan enclosure allow moisture into attic. 2: grill can't be attached correctly because the drywall is blocking on left side.
    Tony C.

    Mediocre work + dishonesty = not recommended Last month we had Ted from the Response team install a bathroom ventilation fan. He charged $250 labor and & $134 parts. What we got is a fan that is not properly sealed around the edges--causing moisture to leak into the attic, and a loose grill that is always at the risk of falling down. This is all because Ted didn't bother to modify the opening in the ceiling dry wall. See picture. Normally we would call Ted and ask him to come back and fix it. But we can't, because Ted also overcharged us for the parts. We asked him to purchase a $134 fan at Home Depot. But once at the store, he called to say that another unit was more suitable. We agreed, but at the end he still charged us $134. A later online search revealed that Home Depot's price for the unit he bought is $89, not $134. Ted pocketed the difference. Would you ask such a handyman back? Innocent mistake? I don't think so. When I later ask for the receipt through texting (which I should have done before he left, my bad), Ted first responded evasively, then went silent. In short, exercise extreme caution when dealing with the Response Team. Or better yet, don't deal with them at all!

    New recessed lighting.
    Christopher N.

    I had a cabinet fall off in my garage, we called several people to get quotes and to get it fixed. After no shows and ghosting in communications from everyone else, Ted showed up to check out the job and give me a quote. He actually showed up when he said he would and did the job properly. I work in the crafts so I know when someone is BS'ing and he did the job with integrity not cutting corners. I would certainly use him again and most likely will as I have other projects in my house. We just had Ted come back and do some work in our house that we had been putting off since we bought it. Half of the recessed lighting in our kitchen didn't work, we had some light fixture we having in our entry and decorative pole in our living room that we didn't not like. Once again Ted showed up 15 minutes early each day, was polite and did the work right. We will be using him again for sure.

Even though this was only a small project, he never treated it carelessly or rushed through the job. He applied multiple coats of paint and matched the texture carefully instead of doing a quick patch job and leaving just because the repair area was small. That level of professionalism really gave me peace of mind and confidence in his work. After the job was completed, he also cleaned up the area thoroughly. His pricing was very fair and reasonable as well. I will definitely hire him again for future projects.

We were looking to upgrade our kitchen sink and faucet, but our problem was that our sink cutout was custom. New sinks wouldn't fit without making a few cuts to our countertop. The plumbers we contacted were either really busy or really expensive (meaning they wouldn't want to do it unless it's really worth their time). His rate was competitive and it was a flat rate for the job. Through our correspondence, Elijah even downloaded the cutout template of the new sink to give us an estimate how much would be cut and what his rate would be for making the cut. On the day of the job, he came in prepared and he was very respectful of our time and space. We provided our new sink and faucet to install, and he recommended that we should upgrade our garbage disposal too since it was pretty old. He made this whole process really easy and we are enjoying our new sink, faucet, and garbage disposal. He is a jack of all trades, and we look forward to contacting him again for future jobs. I highly recommend contacting him for all your handyman needs!
