"Handyman James was prompt and very pleasant. He did a great job fixing my issue and his price was reasonable. I will use him in the future for some other outdoor issues when spring comes."

"We lived out of town and Sam handled a lot of problems for us that he didn't have too. He also took time to help us pick out different appliances and fixtures. Helped us with ideas for a laundry room when others said it couldn't be done. His sub contractors did a good job for the most part. Needed some minor follow up on some work."

"George and entire staff at A & B were professional friendly and went the extra mile to make a great exp. We were continuously updated and kept involved throughout the process. Love this contractor. Best I ever had."

"The choices we were given were thorough. We explained how we needed the blackout shades for sleeping. They came in many colors but we chose basic white. The entire process from picking the shades to ordering the shades to installing took less than two weeks."

"The roofing repair went well, and then I asked Mr. Evans to come to another city where I owned another home that we were remodeling and needed to sell soon. We needed some electrical ,and plumbing work done . I asked if he was licensed to do that. He replied that " he was". I inquired about city permits, and was told that "I did NOT need any- as this was a minor repair, not a complete rewiring job". Having dealt with the city before, I KNEW that was not right, as permits ARE required for ALL work done by contractors in the city. I then asked him if he was registered with our state. He replied that he was. I checked online, and found nothing under the company name of American Contracting. I DID find his name under another company name- J.E. Improvements. However, this registration did NOT list electrical, or plumbing. When I told him what I had learned- he said that he would simply call the state and ask them to add the two categories to his listing ! I was amazed that they would do such a thing over the phone, and called them myself. I was told that "anyone who is registered can call and add anything without submitting any proof of additional licenses". They told me I needed to check with my local city for licensing. I called the Scranton office of licensing and permits, and was told that " Mr. Evans is NOT licensed as either a plumber or electrican in Scranton". He had also told me that he installs and maintains furnaces and heating systems. He is not licensed to do that either in Scranton. He CAN do roofing and siding as that only requires a contractor to pull a permit, and he can get one since he is already registered with the state of PA. There were a couple other things that bothered me. First, he kept saying that he "preferred to be left alone when he worked" and that "we could just leave a key to the house and did not need to be there while the work was being done". Also, I had asked for estimates on painting and a new roof and possibly siding and was told that he "did not write estimates until the customer agreed verbally to a price, because it was a waste of time because some people didn't call him back". Upon checking, I found that he registered his company name as J.E. Improvements with the state on 7/23/2009, yet he did a job for someone on Angie's list in SEPT. 2009 under the name American Contracting. Under Pa. law , doing jobs under two or more company names MUST be reported to the state. I asked the state if they had any listing for American Contracting- they said "NO". Bottom line is this : Mr. Evans is a nice man, did a good job on our roof repair, but if you want him to work in Scranton, be aware that he is NOT licensed for electrical, plumbing or heating, and can NOT pull permits for that work. He CAN do roofing, siding and painting as I am told. permits can be obtained for those jobs as long as he can show his PA registration card and current insurance of $50,000 or more."

"They were very good about finishing the ceiling in our cellar. The quality, responsiveness, and professionalism were definitely great. I will use them again in the future."

"Rodney Calimer was extremely knowledgeable and proficient. Thorough, detailed inspection and multipage report with photos and recommendations."

"This is the THIRD excellent job done for me by this handyman. He is so good, I am almost reluctant to publicize him for fear he gets backed up with so many orders, he will run out of time for working for me. <br /> He is the ideal handyman, took twenty minutes at the most to put in my new heating element and the charge was negligible. He combines thoroughness with efficiency and comes out with quality work. He also did repairs on my front porch a year ago which are still perfectly maintained. My deck on my 100 year old porch was warping, and he advised keeping the wood since it was so obviously durable, even at 100 years old. A year later, a winter later, it looks great !"

"They were good. They were pretty fast and came on time. My overall experience with them has been good."

"Showed up on time, made wall look new, cleaned up. <br />"
