"As any diligent consumer should,  I contacted three separate companies for quotes.  After meeting with the first two, not getting a return call from one, and not being satisfied with the method for which one was planning to install the windows, I did a bit more research and contacted
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
.  My partner and I could not have been happier with his presentation, knowledge and commitment to his product and service.  First impressions are everything, and when
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
walked in the house with his business license, and two huge stacks of references I knew that he meant business...good business.  He walked us through the same info that the other companies had provided, but his
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
attention to detail and his honesty was unmatched. When asked if he would be on site for the install he said..."Oh yes, I even clean your windows myself". His family owns The
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
Company which manufactures some of the windows that he sells, and I thought that this was a really nice extra to his already convincing sales pitch.  We decided to talk about things and asked
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
to return at a later date, which he did and we signed the paperwork to begin the work.  Unlike other companies,
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
only required 30% down, which in this cash strapped economy, was a welcomed bonus.  Three weeks was the time frame he gave us, and he delivered as promised.  He called to confirm the appt. and knowing that I had recently had major surgery, he seemed to be concerned that the timing was right for me seeing as I was recovering.  His team showed up right on time at around 7:45am and got right to work.  In no time, the windows were installed.  Throughout the day, neighbors dropped by and admired the work, took his card and seemed very impressed with his workmanship.  At around 2:30pm he called...windows were in.  I eagerly rushed home to find that our home looked brand new!  Just marvelous and we could not be happier.  The guys had placed all of our furniture back where it belonged, restored the blinds, everything was neat and clean as though they had never been there.  We are still needing to replace three back windows, and our backyard apartment windows as well as some gutter work. 
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
is the only person that will do the job.  As a matter of fact,  good friends of ours around the corner took our advice and just signed a contract with
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
for their windows.  He is a class act...and my partner and I think that he is simply the best.  Being homeowners for only two years, we have been burned a bit by handy men and such...its nice to know that we finally have someone in our corner. 
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
and
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
are the BEST.  You cannot go wrong with him.

"I chose another contractor because of price.  I experienced extended job delays because contractor did not receive delivery of key plumbing and cabinet pieces in a timely manor.  Contractor had to tear out and replace several scopes because of poor workmanship.  Instead of looking me in the face and telling me certain parts of the job would be free of additional charge because, "we're on the job anyway," he should have told me he could do them for an additional charge, then get them DONE!  Because he failed in this, many times I had to almost shove the contract in his face to prove he agreed to perform one task or another. This happened with both the plumbing and the cabinet prices as he priced the delivered products less than the suppliers charged which required me to get significantly involved in the actual project execution. because of the pricing problem the delivery of key products was significantly delayed. As of this writing the drama continues since the cabinets have not yet been installed and I retain a significant partition of the contractor's labor fee to insure either his full compliance or the cost of bringing in another contractor to finish the job as originally intended Do's and
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
'ts: DO: Outline item by item what the contractor is to perform frr the price agreed.  Both you and the contractor initial this list and attach it to the contract.  If possible, attach a hard-lined plan of the proposed work including special details if necessary. Write down every appliance, fixture, cabinet (with correct stock numbers), etc the contractor is to order on your behalf.  Include also, the price you will pay for each including tax and delivery.  Then secure definite delivery dates from the respective suppliers. Schedule the construction start to coincide with the CONFIRMED delivery date of the key items that can hold up construction. Obtain paid invoices from all suppliers who provided items or subcontractors who provide services to the job through you contractor - this reduces any risk of construction liens after the job is completed. Print out detailed invoices to accompany every payment made to or on behalf of your contractor this includes all building supplies, progress payments, changer orders or subcontractor payments. Carefully inspect product deliveries, the performance of all constructions services, installations and so forth as they occur and insist that anything not in sync with your agreement or expectations is immediately corrected.  This reduces the chances of incurring additional costs to tear out an correct work regardless of who pays for it. In the event of change orders, carefully review with your contractor the reason for the CO and agree only when you become completely satisfied of its necessity.  However, always negotiate the price of the CO just as you did the original contract. Always remain civil and patient.  Rarely do construction jobs go perfectly.  Problems occur for three reason, your fault, his fault or a combination thereof.  Remain analytical and removed from the problem and force yourself to admit your fault for the situation when it is indeed your fault... it happens My last DO.  Always provide a 10% contingency in your personal construction budget to cover the unforeseen costs that can pop up during even a seemingly
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
job
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
'TS: don't Sign a hand written contract under any circumstances.  Make sure the contract is typed and clearly describes exactly what you want done and how...  This may take several meetings  with the contractor to make sure EVERYTHING is covered and correctly priced.  This protects you from unnecessary and costly change orders in the future. don't Pay the entire contract fee until the project is completed exactly to you expectation and in accordance with the terms of the contract.  Always retain 15% of any amount due the contractor to be paid at the end of the project when all punch list items are resolved and the Contractor delivers an executed and notarized
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
waiver that holds you harmless in the event a subcontractor or supplier liens the property for non-payment.  This relates to point 3  above. don't prepay. if at all possible only pay your contractor for items purchased on you behalf when those services or items are delivered to the job site with a paid invoice.  If this is not possible pay only a portion of the cost, retaining the balance for delivery  and the paid invoice. don't allow the contractor to guide perspective clients though your job site.  Two reasons: 1. the job is not finished and you don't know if your satisfied; 2. Today, its wiser not to trust.  During most construction jobs, the job site is accessible to many workers, etc. who do not respect your security as you do. Limit the strangers you allow into your house regardless of who invites them.   The smaller you keep the circle of "visitors" the more you secure you keep you home during construction.

Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
was very prompt,professional and courteous and pays particular attention to detail.  I gave him a "B" on pricing because he charges an hourly rate vs. per job. While I understand the reasoning for this it makes it difficult for budgeting purposes.  "

Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
is very professional, very detailed, and thorough. I was very impressed with how quickly he could get the work done (especially the windows!) with such high quality. I have had other contractors work on my house, by he did a better job by far and is very reasonable priced. The other thing I am impressed with is his breadth of skills. One of the jobs we had him do was paint our kitchen cabinets. They came out great. One other small note... while

Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
is a true professional. His price is fair - even when he discovered the additional repair work, he worked with us to make sure we understood without a shadow of a doubt where the additional cost was going. He always showed up on time, worked all day, and delivered impeccable results. He went above and beyond (brought in our mail while we were out of town, took down our trash). He stuck to his comittment regarding time line. I would not only trust
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
with my home repairs/renovations, I would trust him with all I have. From somebody who has worked with multiple contractors,
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
is a cut above - always responsive, always fair, always friendly. My wife and I can't recommend
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
highly enough.

"They are rated pretty high on Angie's List. The dishwasher was originally mounted to a granite countertop. Not only did he do it correctly this time around, he actually put in a custom lip to match the countertop so you couldn't see any gap between the countertop and the dishwasher. It turned out real well. I was very pleased. They were good about timing. He showed up every time he said he would. They were great about customers. They gave a heads-up on following up. It was nice because I had the same gentleman that had come out before. They had the same contractor come out to my house this time too."

"What a great experience.
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
has been a fantastic find for my home repairs and updates! I can't say enough good things about working with
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
. He's exactly the kind of person I want to work with, extremely knowledgeable, a good communicator, responsive, very fair pricing, and a true passion for what he does. From my initial contact with
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
, getting my estimate (and looking into some future work I want done), and then punctually getting the work done. He knows that we all work hard for our money, and has a true appreciation for the quirks of an older home. I would gladly recommend

's Services included House Painting & Rotting Wood Replacement
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
and his team went the extra mile in making the needed exterior repairs to our 50-year old home. While we realized there was some rotting wood on the home we recently purchased, we learned there was more extensive damage to some of the structural components after
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
?s team removed the decayed trim pieces. They replaced even the 2 X 10 roofing components that had been damaged by a faulty gutter system. This required some ingenuity as the roof needed to be jacked up for support while the new framing was installed. Although the job required additional time, they stayed as long as was necessary to complete the work. When the rotting wood repairs were complete, the
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
crew prepped the house for painting and began to use the paint I requested. In short, the paint didn?t apply properly but they were flexible enough to use an alternate brand upon my approval which was even better and the paint adhered properly and should be long-lasting. Because I wanted the replaced wood to be as maintenance-free as possible, they used pressure treated materials,
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
Plank siding, and PVC trim components. The use of these materials will provide a good payback over time as they will require less ongoing maintenance. These are the 3 chief reasons
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
earns a high rating: 1.
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
has the right temperament for a contractor. As such, he is easy to get along with and is receptive to ideas from the homeowner. In short, he wants to meet the homeowner?s expectations. His crew worked very efficiently, seldom took breaks, and did the job the right way. These days that brand of commitment is rather unusual. One example of the
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
crew?s flexibility: Squirrel removal. The crew had replaced a portion of the soffit on the right corner of our 2-story home. As they prepared to paint this area they heard squirrels in the attic behind the soffit. Most companies would have stated ?this isn?t my job? (or would not have told the homeowner), but the
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
crew pulled back the soffit and encouraged the squirrels to leave from both the inside and outside of our home. A ?critter
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
? company would have charged several hundred dollars. 2. His craftsmanship is structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing. It was important to us for the repairs to be solid, long-lasting, and attractive. In all 3 areas
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
and his team hit the
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
. I found that
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
will take the time to evaluate new materials (even though they are not commonplace) that provide the homeowner more value. One example: They rebuilt the cupola on our roof (using modern materials that are resistant to decay) and replaced the sad, rotting wood. Further, they removed decades of paint from the metal wind
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
components and painted the roof of the cupola with paint that gave it a hand-hammered copper look. I had priced replacement cupolas and figure that this one item alone saved us at least $500. 3.
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
is trustworthy and manages both the materials and labor that go into a job so that a homeowner gets fair value. I never had a concern that I was charged appropriately or that I received good value for our investment. In short, I highly recommend
Atlanta Handyman Services Provider Name Locked
and was very satisfied with the wood repair and painting his team did on our home.
