I bought a chandelier from Lamps Plus and they told me that this is the only app that they use so I had to use them for the installation. Originally I was impressed that I put in the request and they sent someone out right away, however the installer cancelled within one minute of arriving at my house. I stayed home and waited for him for hours. Handy didn't even call me to tell me that he cancell...

every job ever done by these people will overcharge the customer and the pros are a hit or miss professionals who get sent. the pros are only paid 1/3 of what the handy technologies company is getting from their app. angie is a sub company as well to these scammers. beware
DESCRIPTION OF WORK Had done plenty of work and handy is a joke. These people need to be shut down and sued. Handy is a scam service who sends out unprofessional pros and also contracts with homeadvisor and does not let the customers know that its handy workers coming to do the jobs

Also rinsed mop in kitchen sink, NEVER done in my home. Mopped floors with wrong product, left floors sticky. (I had to mop the floors myself after she left.) Will never recommend HANDY CO.

Unfortunately, Handy House Cleaning being an email only method company hurt in my scenario. My individual was a no-show and I was never called, texted or emailed. You can only contact this company through email and a situation that could be resolved or cleared up with a 2-5 minute call, is prolonged 1+ hours waiting on emails to go back and forth. Reading the other reviews, this seems to be the tr...

Took my credit card, signed up for service. 20 mins before it was scheduled then the reschedule for a different day (so that I had to cancel because it that new time didn't work for me). I wish I had read the other reviews as it seems to be a kind of pattern. I am not sure what they are going to try and charge me, but I am betting they will try to charge me a cancellation fee. Then they asked me t...

It did not go Well. Kimora showed up 30 minutes late. Came in, I showed her around and told her what I wanted to be clean. She said she needed to get supplies out of her car and left my house. After a few minutes, I looked in the driveway and her car was gone. I tried to call her but she sent my phone to voice mail. I also texted her where was she and asking if she would at least tell me why she l...
