You can't go wrong with Hortons. JR does an exceptional job. We are currently looking at several more jobs and of course Hortons will be asked to return to do them. Great work JR.

Review by a customer in Wernersville, PA
Project: Hire a Handyman
I was impressed with Horton's professionalism. They followed through with everything they said they would do. There were no surprises & everything went very smoothly. I will not hesitate to use Horton's services in the future.
Comment from Horton's Handyman Service
This customer was great, they even remove the snow/frozen snow in the area for me to place my ladder safely. This was very helpful considering I had to carry a storm window up the ladder so I could install it. I would be more than glad to do more work for them in the future.

Review by a customer in Reading, PA
Project: Repair Exterior Trim
Did not complete work the was paid for.
Comment from Horton's Handyman Service
The job in question was to strip and re-stain their front door. Upon stripping the door I realized what poor quality it was. It was a paint grade door at best full of rot and mold. I notified the customer and suggested they show the door to the company they purchased it from, which they did. They let the company refinish the door. The job was not completed because I was not given the opportunity to complete it. Also, despite what their review says, I absolutely was not paid for my time and supplies to strip the finish off the door.
