"It took a very long time to get a bid, almost three weeks and I had to contact him again in order to get it. We had a miscommunication regarding contact on one of the days of the job. The work was good, though we had to have him come back out to repair the latch on the gate he installed. He came out right away and took care of it promptly."

"Berry Construction was outstanding in handling our leak. The fact that I could trust them without being there is huge and was so very helpful to me."

"He gave us a detailed estimate as well as let us know he works alone, so the job would take a little longer than if he had a crew come in to paint.  After the job was finished, we were glad he took the time others don't (and we have experience with those who don't).  He is a perfectionist.  He spent the first two days washing and rinsing walls and woodwork, removing nails/screws, patching, etc.  He is a master at painting and understands that preparation is the key to a beautiful paint job.  He always let us know when he would arrive and when he would be leaving, and what he planned to do the following day.  He kept to schedule and finished when he predicted he would.  He left us with extra paint all correctly labeled so we could use it for touch ups if needed. We could not be happier, and we will never use another painter as long as Gino is in business.  His old school approach to getting everything prepared the right way before starting to paint was something we are not used to in this slap dash work world, and if you hire him to paint your home, you are guaranteed an A+ job at a very reasonable price."

"It was great. We've had them for 35 years. It was good."

"I called Fence Factory  for an estimate on a new fence for our backyard. They took my information and told me an Estimator would call me to set up a time to come out and measure.  I was pleasantly surprised when within a day or two Franko called and set up a date & time.  I was even more pleased when he actually showed up about 15 minutes early, took my measurements on a Friday and said I'd have an emailed quote by Monday.  And what do you know??  It was in my inbox that day by lunch time!  I was very impressed, as the other vendors I had called had either come out to measure and had no follow up after I had to call them 2-3 times, still never got my quote. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />My hope was to get a reasonable quote from a local, smaller vendor.  I found, however, that the follow up was horrible, and if they can't even follow up after taking the time to come out (mind you some never even called back after I left a couple messages requesting quotes), I thought well, how is their work ethic? <br />"

"Paul has done several repairs for us and he is always helpful, courteous, and his prices are fair. <br />"

"These guys-and gals-know locks in autos-homes-boats and more-would recommend them and ONLY use them unless they are booked up and cannot do same day service-which is RARE. <br />"

"You'll have to search a while before finding someone as pleasant as Richard Blake. He and his son, John, are very friendly, personable people, and are willing to discuss and work with you on every detail of your project. The work they do is top notch, very clean, and thorough. They are willing to take care of things like picking up materials from the home goods store, taking delivery of items at the site, and hauling away all debris. They make the effort to cover furniture, walls, and flooring as they work, and they leave the area of work clean and as if they were never there. They are even willing to move furniture as necessary, and will make sure to do a walk-through to take care of any remaining items. I was going to be absent from my home while they were working, so it was important for me to be able to trust these guys. I would not only trust Richard in my home, I would trust him to watch my child (if I had one). <br /> The only complaint I have is that Richard under-estimated the time it would take to do my job. He said 2 weeks, and it ended up being 3. A little of that time was taken up by discovery of termite damage that was unexpected and needed to be repaired. And of course, delays are part of life. But there was no way they would have been done in two weeks even with out that delay, even though he continuously told me he would have it finished on time, up to the last day of the two week period. Because time was such a factor for me, I even had to eliminate one aspect of the project because I knew they wouldn't be able to finish. It's not that Richard is dishonest; I believe he wants to tell you what you want to hear, without fully thinking through all of the time-related implications. And then he is hesitant to come clean about the true amount of time it will take when he realizes there will be a delay, because he doesn't want to disappoint you. <br /> I would definitely recommend Paso Robles Handyman; his prices are good, his work is quality and he is a very pleasant, honest individual. I would only advise to press him on all the details of his schedule, and to add plenty of time to what he estimates. <br />"

"Joe did a great job on several sections of interior drywall in the house and garage and redwood fence rebuild. Making the house ready to sell.  He was on time, professional and reasonably priced. After the initial estimate, I noticed some additional work on my walk throughs. He took these changes in stride, adjusted the price accordingly and I would hire Joe again! Thanks for all the hard work Joe. <br />"

"Chris was very efficient and did an excellent job on fixing my gate/replacing with a new one. I highly recommend him and will use him again for future fence work. <br />"
