Horrible...A 10 day project turned into a 4 week project. The crew had to redo floors-walls-ceilings - Very unprofessional yelling and swearing at each other all the time - Joe would leave the job for several hours during the day - some of his crew did not show up on time or at all - when money was held back till the job was complete - was fine with it said he would make it right, when he came back on Monday he starting yelling at me, probably felt he could take advantage since I'm a woman then -he took all his tools and left never to return. Lot of money was spent and I still have rooms that are uninhabitable.

I hired Joe to replace the rotting trim on my shed doors. His asking price was $450 and that included parts and labor. After rescheduling twice because his other projects ran late, he no-showed on a Friday because he’d accidentally put it in his agenda for Monday. He was supposed to come at 1:00 on Monday, but didn’t get to my house until 5:30. He and his assistant worked until it was dark. When they were ready to leave, he used a flashlight to show me the middle part of the doors, and asked for $50 more dollars to cover the more expensive wood. Being a sucker, I gave him $40 more. When I went out the next day to look at the rest of the job, I saw that hammered down screws were sticking out of the wood on one of the doors, and they’d split the wood there, leaving it vulnerable to rotting. When I opened the doors, there were screw points sticking out 2” all over the inside of the door because they used screws that were too long. There were discarded nails all over the shed floor. The wood that he left behind was mostly the old rotted wood that they had pulled off. I sent him a text asking him to come pick up the wood and fix the screws. All I’ve heard back from him was one text saying “Yes” a week ago, and nothing since then, even though I texted again a few days after that. I have since moved the rotten wood to a friend’s dumpster myself, patched the split wood, and sawed off as many of the exposed nails as I could before my Dremel blade became too dull. I would never hire him again.

They came as a three worker unit which for a single job or a simple repair would be too many people costing more than it should. I had a 24'x6' old porch ceiling with soffit vinyl needing replacement and a crawl area beneath the house with perhaps 3 feet of clearance. The utilities and sewer drain came up from the ground and were protected by a 6'x6' heated enclosure that needed insulation. During the winter the animals would dig into this and pull down the existing fiberglass batting and make their nest beneath the house. Neither job was by itself terribly hard but for one person which is what one expects when looking for a handyman they were pains (especially the crawl space box which required hours kneeling.) "Locke it In" completed both jobs well and met their cost estimate. The ceiling vinyl looks great. The crawl space box is covered in silvered R-13 Sheathing that I hope the wild life cannot use for bedding come the winter.

Joe and his team well exceeded my expectations! The job quote was fair and the work is great, I'm so happy with my "new" kitchen! Pedro sanded and stained my cabinets and they look like new. Mike took his time installing the new hardware and if any of the handles don't line up, I can't see it, they look perfect! We also had a screen door / side door frame that needed to be replaced. Joe did an excellent job. The door was more work than initially thought and Joe stayed until the job was complete. Joe showed true work ethic keeping at it until the job was done! I'd definitely recommend Locke It In and hire them again!

It went very well. He understood everything that needed to be done. He also kept our house very clean as he did his work. He is well worth the money I spent. My family will now be able to enjoy our newly renovated home for years to come. I will be using him again soon.

Joe repaired 3 sections of our curb that were broken in a couple hours. Also said he would come back to smooth out concrete if it appeared to need it when settling. So far work looks good.

Mike contacted me immediately after my post on Saturday. He worked with me to provide an estimate remotely using pictures and his estimate on cost of supplies and hours of work were very accurate. The quality of the completed work was excellent and he hauled away the old wood and did a wonderful job picking up and restoring the work area. I look forward to using Mike for future work on our home.

Fantastic! Joseph contacted me immediately regarding this repair job. While it was by no means a “big,” job, he treated it as if it were. He was beyond professional in all logistics - coordinating readily with my tenant to arrange a convenient time to come by to check out job, keeping me informed regarding all details. Excellent communicator! Work was completed quickly~ quality terrific. I’m delighted to have found an expert, reliable professional with a range of skills. Joseph takes pride in his work. ... a treasure! Very much look forward to working with him again in the future!

The entire experience was very poor. We felt and still feel that 40 dollars/hour for painting was fair. We gave him a check up front for materials He was not able to cash it. He did not have an account at a bank. Therefore, whenever he needed materials, he would go to Home Depot, choose the materials, have the clerk call us and we would pay for the materials with our card. There was a time he said he couldnt work without a belt sander. We split the cost of the sander with him A carpenter without a sander should have been a red flag. Yet, we still continued As the time went on, he was vague with both his hours and progress. When we tried to pay him, it was a nightmare. We wrote him a check thtat he couldnt cash. Then we wrote him another check in his friends name that he couldnt cash. Finally, we were able to pay her through pay pal. I asked him for photos but he never sent any In the end, we paid him 2000 dollars for labor We asked him when he would be done and he responded "on Tuesday" Well Tuesday came and he never responded again. To pay a person that much money, leave your place in a mess, not communicate and not finish the job, totally stinks.

I found Joe to be quite courteous and attentive to detail. He always maintain communication with me throughout the project. Was very forthcoming with his estimate of his final cost for labor. He was courteous and respectful during the process. I found his pricing to be fair and his work was thorough. I've invited Joe to give me another estimate on another project hopefully to be completed in the near future.

Joe did a great job. He's responsive, focused and hard working. No job is too small or too big. I had a huge order of standing office desks that needed assembly and Joe organized the work, and completed it and other odd jobs I asked for with little guidance.

locke It In Construction was an amazing company. they went beyond there duties. i had a bunch of stuff in my garage that needed to be moved, and i was unable to get it done on time and instead of rescheduling there crew went right to work pulling all the stuff out of the way just to get to there tasks. on top of that they did an amazing job timely and very respectful to everyone in my household... i had them hanging 12 ft sheets on a 9 foot ceiling height and i offered them to cut the sheets in half but instead of taking the easy way out they got it done i couldn't thank them enough. they had told me the reason for it, " later on down the road when you go to mud the seems , its always less the better." that shows hes always looking on down the future for your best interest and hes always helping out the customer no matter what.. the price was great the time was great, and overall all the completion came out great. on top of that my garage has never been so clean.. thank you to Locke It In construction i simply could ask for a better out come or such a profesional job YOU GUYS ROCKED!!
