"Prior to hiring them, they assured me they could fix my window issue. I spent a lot of time looking for a company willing and able to fix it. $200 later they were not able to fix my issue. Additionally, when my homebuyer called they told him that I "refused service". No, they weren't able to provide the service promised."

"My worker was very nice,very good .He replaced my screen on my sliding door...my disappointment,though,was that the office never informed me that I needed to have all the supplies ready FOR him. I assumed they would be aware that I needed a new screen and would have the necessary items (screen/stripping). I had to run to a hardware store to purchase screen and stripping while he waited, ON THE CLOCK, until I returned! It was not his fault,but I want the office to know that you need to inform your customers in advance of what is expected of them so that their handymen will be able to have the equipment ready to go!!! "
Comments from Handyman Matters Chicago
Thanks for the great feedback! We are very flexible on materials. When the craftsman gets to your home, he will make a complete list of materials. You can take the list to the closest hardware store while we start working, or we can go. However if we go this is billable time, and most of the handyman industry operates in a similar fashion. Again there are many different types and sizes of parts and this is the most economical method for the client, and only profitable method for smaller jobs.
