  I contacted this company to remove some kitchen cabinets and dispose a double oven. Originally I was quoted $700 for above described work. On the actual workday, I asked for additional service of removal of granite tile backsplash. Igor and Milton did a wonderful job of taking care of all the work I requested but I was surprised on the $1500 bill I received at the end of the day which included 5 hr of drywall repair charge at the rate of $100/a hour. Igor left the job site early but left an invoice with Milton before he even finished with the work. By the end of the day, Milton told me that he wasn’t done with the work and need to come back for second coat of patching drywall. I proceeded to call their office to schedule for a second visit. On the second visit, Igor called and asked me what I needed done so I told him what Milton told me. I was unaware that Igor had already sent along a second invoice with Milton for the work before he finished the job. I didn’t realize there was additional cost until Milton finished the job hours later. There was a communication breakdown since Igor never told me there would be additional cost over the phone. I had to pay another additional $475 for 4 1/2 hr of drywall & painting plus $30 material fee. Igor ended up overcharged me by half a hour, at $95 a hour it seems excessive for putting on second coat of drywall, sanding and painting.

  Jim the Handyman has done four recent jobs for me. They hung a new dining room light; painted and installed new fixtures in my powder room; cleaned my dryer vent and installed a new outdoor vent guard; and painted and installed new hardware on my front door. Their work has been great, their office staff has been very responsive, and their prices are fair. Very pleased and will use them again.

  I used Jim the Handyman to replace the rotten trim and brick molding around the garage door, replacing the wood with PVC. Leo and Rakeem did a fantastic job on the trim, ensuring everything fit and was caulked up properly. Looks great! I also had Gustavo help install some eye bolts so I can hang string lights over my deck. He was great to work with and was able to accommodate my crazy schedule that day. I hung the lights a few days later and the eye bolts held up very well due to an excellent installation. I'd definitely hire those gentlemen again.
