Unethical, unresponsive, unprofessional and dishonest. I hired a handyman to complete general basic repairs in my bathroom. I was not provided an estimate of the work or an invoice upon completion. I was charged for items I did not approve so I ended paying a receipt for items Doug purchased for other clients. He also charged an enormous markup so I ended up paying hundreds of dollars more than I should have. Doug also charged me $50 to take items to the dump but they never took my items. I asked for a refund and he refused. I asked for a copy of my receipt and it took over a month to receive. Doug argued with me, told me he would not work things out with me and told me he hoped that I felt lousy about myself and trying to work things out with him. He is childish and unprofessional and I would never recommend his company to anyone looking for any type of work. Here is his response to me. Mae Mag, It sounds like your mind is made up to hurt us. I apologized for not getting back to you sooner and you accuse me of being shady. Could it be that your request just got miss placed by me? Could it be that I was out of the country? Could it be that we lost a family member and are dealing with those types of matters? All of these are true â feel lousy now? I hope so! What item(s) are you unsure of that we purchased for your project? Our mark up is per industry standards and noted on our estimate and invoice. I may be willing to work with you if your threats stop.

Response from Company:

Maeve, we are sorry that you decided against our offer to discount our markup on materials, All materials purchased were approved by you and used on your project. We are confused with your change in position because you have us scheduled to return to install your glass shower door when it arrives. We thank you for the opportunity to finish the work that your first contract would not finish. We wish you the best of luck working with your 3rd company.

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

HomeAdvisor verifies state-level licensing where applicable - note: some states require local or county level licensing and you should verify whether or not your pro is properly licensed.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
