I needed my deck powerwashed and stained. I was hugley disappointed. Within 6 months it was peeling. I tried to call them and they didnt want to have anything to do with me.  Personally I think maybe the deck wasn't dry enough to apply stain, or it could be that the stain was sprayed on instead of rolled on.  Initially I emailed the company to try to speak to them and he came back with several different excuses. Finally I tried calling him and he eventually stopped answering my calls. I would never hire this company to power wash and stain your deck.

"we have won Remodeler of the year two years in a row from two different sources. we could not achieved this without taking good care of our work. the home owner choose the paint and the day that he demanded it was painted. the date it was applied the moisture meter showed a percentage within the specs as stated on the can. the only way this material could be applied was to be rolled on with two coats. however it does no matter if was rolled or sprayed, paint will bond to the pores of the wood even according to the manufacture of the paint. the home owners wood was in state of deterioration due to no previous care. many month later the home owner stated they were so pleased with the work they wanted us to do more work on they're home. the home owner provided a long list, from painting bedrooms, installing countertops, backsplash to building new bedrooms in basement. we turned down the work. that's when the complaints started. we've done a lot of decks since then no issues."

My bathroom has been ripped out and I haven’t had a shower for a month. It has been a struggle from the get go. For the last two weeks he said he has been out of state for a retreat, but he was supposed to be here this morning and he hasn’t shown up or answered my calls or emails.

Chris seems like a nice guy and I hope his health is better, however health problems or no, there is no excuse for his failure to communicate consistently in a proffesional manner.  Although I may not be an expert in this area, I have made improvements <br /> and some remodeling to the 7 homes I have owned over the last 39 years and found the quality of his work substandard. <br /> He installed a binding, sticking storm door and said it was finished. He put up a wall, plastered and primed and said it was <br /> ready to paint. The paint peeled and when his primer under it peeled  there was a powdery substance under it that should not be there. <br /> He brought his 10 or 12 year old son with him to help (a very nice boy). While I think this may be a good situation for dad & son this is not the situation we were looking for for remodeling our retirement home. We were so disgusted, I paid him, told him not to return and finished the job myself <br />

"the door in which lee purchased was built by upside down at the plant. it took 2 months for it arrive so lee did not want to wait for another after the factory sent instruction on how to rebuild. so we rebuilt the door. when we were done, Member and I tested the door over and over again. opening and closing it, locking and unlocking. Lee stated he's happy with the outcome and paid the bill. the wall was built plumb, level and according to local building code. base, chair rail and proper drywall methods were used. no short cuts. the plaster did loose bond to the wall. I returned to replanted and prime. Lee called with one more thing to do however when I came I could not get to his house. the entire road was being ripped up and his drive way was gone. left vm. for him telling him I can't get down his road. what do you want me to do? I received back an email telling me he'll paint the wall himself."

Customer service was excellent up front. I think the workers were using a product that they were unfamiliar with which caused the job to drag on and on due to them having to come back several times to fix issues. Ultimately we settled though we were not very happy with the product that was put on the deck. Some of the lines on the deck shown and some did not. One area where the material filled the lines now has standing water every time it rains. In the end the deck has grown on us. The work was good and the guys were all very nice. I think our experience wasn't great due to the unfamiliarity with the product they were applying.

<p>They never returned my call; others evidently reported similar problems, I contacted them anyway because their website looked good.  Anyone can put anything on a website, however it is how you deal with potential and current customers that is the most important thing.</p> <br /> <br />

"Let me be clear. I did not lie to the member or anyone. I have saved everything as a record of our agreement. emailed specifications on work and estimate of cost before pictures after pictures all her emails all of her voice mails if anyone want to see them as proof of what went on and the quality of the work I would be happy to show to you. The memberwas on site and over my shoulder everyday and every hour, god bless her, that I was working at her bathroom. It was my pleasure, at the time, to assist her in her effort to list her home and when she stated  "it looks wonderful!" then paid the bill I was pleased to be there for her. The first amount was quoted as an estimate.  I charge her an additional 25 dollars for 1 hour of plumbing and parts  and an addition 45 dollars for paint cost, she was going to provide paint originally but did not. I did tell her that the plumbing to the shower needed additional time and parts to make the new faucet system work. She stated, "OK. I understand." total additional amount was 70 dollars I gave 10% off on the original estimated amount, 120 dollars Days after the work was completed she left me 3-5 minute long voice mails, stating she is demanding that I come back and repaint or give her money back. not because of the color she selected but because of sheen. she selected a paint sample in flat but now wanted a different sheen.  I told due to the fact the house was built and walls plastered in 1820 a sheen deeper then a flat will cause the imperfection to be noticed regardless of the skim coating. I was in fact willing to come back and do something for her however then she started with the threats and calling others and slandering me, stating that I lied to her about the cost, paint, materials, licensing, and more according to those she spoke with I decided that she had gone to far and stated I won't be doing anything for her. I have made it clear to her, that the people she slandered my name to are ready to serve as a witness and that I have contacted my attorney. I was willing to help her out with her issues. However for 5 full days she saw the work before issuing payment then stated while writing the check, "it looks wonderful!" then trashes my name to others including here on Angie's List because she's not getting what she wants is inexcusable behavior."

I was not pleased with their service and I won't use them again. He gave me a quote and by the end of the job he added $22.00 more to the bill because he said my deck took more things than he needed. I had to get them back because they got stuff all over my house. They did come get it off but the progress of trying to get stuff out of them was hard. I felt they could have done a better job with the deck. They were a little sloppy and I don't think they covered it well.
Response from AAA Handyman Service
"With respect, the original quotation was an estimate. I informed her the deck may or may not need additional coverage. We coated her deck three times per her request after the second coat. Yes. My painter accidentally got some of the weather proofing on her siding which we removed within 2 days. We did have a rain delay over a week. In which we stayed in contact with the client about this. The orginal quotation was based on square footage, 5 gallons, however after she demanded that we coat it again we used a total of 10 Cost per gallon 17.00 Total cost 180.00 Total labor hours 9 My total cost for her deck 378.00 estimated quotation 300 Completed price 322.00 Total square footage 400 I could have charged carol more based on her demand to add a third coat. She stated that she could see areas not covered by the weather seal. However I demonstrated to her that it's been covered, she said "alright. I see your point"."

Chris helped us decide on texture, color combinations, trim color etc.  I found him to be knowledgeable and very helpful.  He was punctual (little early!) for every appointment - followed through on expectations and kept us informed of progress. <br /> <br /> He recognized when extra work had to be done, and let us know prior to starting.  No remenants of paint left on hardwood floors - exact edges and smooth wall surfaces.

Chris was the most prompt service person I have ever dealt with to date.  He responded immediately to my phone call and came over the next day to see what needed repairing.  He emailed me right away with an estimate and started the project within days. <br /> He communicated promptly by email and showed up when he said he would!!!  He was most professional and pleasant.  I have several other projects that I want him to do and look forward to having him help again.  You won't be disappointed if you hire him.

I did not really know a lot about pressure washing so I shopped Angie's List and selected them because of their good reviews. The person who came out was very helpful and went beyond what was needed for the job to be done. He fixed some things on the house that were not included in the job. He was a pretty nice guy who is very trustworthy. He did a good job and was very thorough. He was in contact with us before the job so he was responsive. I will use them again in the future.

I contacted him because of the good reports on Angie's List.  He was extremely responsive and went by to see the house and sent me an estimate rapidly.  We also discussed via email various other options for winterizing and he answered any questions completely and quickly.  He came this morning and came to the door to meet me before he started working.  It was very nice to have that personal contact because this is a large home built in 1948 which needs ongoing maintenance and I am not there full time.  Christopher and his son came to do the job and I was very impressed by both of them.  They are very easy to talk to and made me feel that I knew them already.  When they finished, they told me and we talked for a little while about the roof mold, etc. and he encouraged me to contact him if I needed help on anything.......or even recommendations for others to do work that he doesn't do.  I am very pleased and believe that we will have a long term working relationship.

She showed up on time to do the walk-through and gave me an estimate on the spot.  Though a bit higher than what I had been paying, it was less expensive than the cleaning service we tried one time this summer (and were not impressed with).  She has a very charming and professional demeanor.  Very open to suggestions and responsive to requests.  I feel she is very trustworthy.  She has cleaned our house several times.  She shows up on time and is very thorough.  House smells clean and sparkles when she's finished.

His work, both on the initial job of cleaning out my gutter downspouts, and the subequent job of the roof and deck powerwashing, followed by staining (the deck) and roof shampooing (to remove roof mold) was very good and professionally done.  Chris is punctual, explains in detail what the prospective job will entail, and keeps the customer advised as to when he will start and likely finish the job.  He furnishes references, and keeps in contact with the customer until the job is finished to their satisfaction.  I would not hesitate to recommend him to any home or business owner who needs some repair work or new construction to be done. <br /> <br /> Tom Sellinger

"Member, I'm very sorry for the confusion. You see, I laid up for 4 weeks due to a torn ACL and other stuff related to it. However please accept my apologies. Please note that I did try to contact you in the beginning of November by way of cell and email with an update. But no matter what, I'm sorry for any harm that I may have caused you. If I can be of any help to in the future please let me know. Your neighbor Christopher S."
