"Margaret and Mike were efficient, professional and very personable. They were in my home for two days painting two rooms and a hallway and did a wonderful painting job. They were very respectful of my home and belongings. Enjoyed having them in my home and would gladly have them back."

"Pickett's painting is a testament to how much you can get away with when you have an affable personality, DON'T BE FOOLED. I hired Ron in March 2023 and red flags flew pretty quickly when he and his helper tracked snow in many times, taped or draped nothing and dragged furniture away from walls rather than carrying. By the end of the job we had paint along carpet in all three room's trim he painted, paint on bedding, broken furniture supports from dragging, paint on outlets and light fixtures (he removed no plate or trim covers), drip marks, missed spots in all rooms, very patchy paint coverage on trim, unpatched holes, a mess left where they rinsed brushes and massive disappointment. Pickett's is a landlord special, don't hire him if you have an ounce of care for your space or value for a dollar."

"Solid Company. Professional service and beautiful results. James and Greg even took care of some sand on my driveway as a value add."

"I recommend making sure you know who Putnam Handyman is sending to your house & call references, even if you are a repeat customer. Here is why….. I had an in-wall air conditioning unit installed by PH in June 2022. Overall, this installation was cut & dry with a few fixes along the way. The experience was fantastic so I called on them again in May 2023 to replace another in-wall AC unit that was leaking. This installation was not as cut & dry but absolutely doable. It became clear quickly that the lead technician was not happy with the job. I explained that I understood it was different than the job in 2022 and the AC & sleeve I purchased met the specs I was given so I was not being unrealistic. It ended up taking about 1½ days & I was completely fine with paying more for the extra work but the installation was flawed. I sent an email with pics detailing the flaws; foam sealant used on outside looked terrible, trim around the unit was not set correctly and there was a gap under the unit that needed to be sealed. I also requested they send the team they sent in 2022 to fix the problems. PH called me to discuss the email. I agreed to having the team who installed it come back & we agreed on a fair price for the installation. When they came back to fix their work, the same complaints were lobbied. Again, I explained that I understood, I got the materials according to the specs they provided, etc. Now here we are in 2025 and the poor installation has created damage. The technician installed the AC too close to the electric baseboard heater and since this was a colder winter compared to the year before, the bottom trim has warped quite significantly. I didn’t discover the damage until a few weeks ago because I cover front of my ACs when the weather cools. I emailed PH with pics but since their warranty expired, I would need to pay to have it fixed. While I respect the timing of the warranty, I am still disappointed that Putnam Handyman isn’t willing to fix a job that was obviously done incorrectly by their technician. So, here I am taking this story to internet to warn others."

"Everything went very well from the first call to completion. Estimator was very responsive, professional and helpful. Project manager and foreman were very good also. The men who did the work were professional, considerate of our home, polite and did a great job and great cleanup. We have an estimate for vinyl fencing installation and will use United Construction again for that, in the spring."

"It went well, but circumstances beyond our control kept us from competing the entire job of power washing the siding. The pressure valve coming into the home was faulty and there was not enough pressure to effectively clean the siding, thus prompting the cancellation of the balance of the project. The gutters were able to be cleaned however. Kevin is polite, and very eager to take care of the customer. Follow up and follow through are excellent."

"We hired Chris at Elegant Estates in 2024 for a job involving house washing and paver restoration. I was amazed by his dedication, energy, and professionalism. I have not received such excellent service from any other home improvement contractor. Planning the job weeks ahead of time was effortless. Chris has an efficient online system for communicating about estimates. He arrived at the appointed time with one assistant, and they worked meticulously all day. At the end he gave an honest explanation of the factors involved and his decisions. Every aspect of the job was done to the highest standard. He is a rare contractor that I would trust to do a job when I wasn’t present."
