"Nice young man trying to make a living but there were several paint spills on the carpet. My buffet is still out from the wall because I cannot move it back. The painting itself was fine."

"I used Mr. Handy man several months ago to install a storm door on my home. When I scheduled the appointment, I was given a quote of $375.00. When the technician arrived, he was alone. I told him I thought he would need help since the door weighed 139 lbs. He frowned and said, "yeah probably". But he did not call for any help. So I helped him. He had no clue what he was doing. I had to find a video on YouTube on how to reverse the swing and install the door. It took him several hours to do a job that should have taken an hour max. After the technician left they emailed me a bill for $415.00. I called the office to discuss the poor work, the additional charges and that he had taken my keys with him. No one answered so I left a message. I got a call right back to collect the payment. I told them of the problems and she said she would have the office manager call me the next day. The office manager called the next morning. She was extremely rude and kept interrupting me while I was trying to talk to her. I told her of the problems and asked to speak with the owner. She said he was out of the country for 2 weeks but that I would not be allowed to speak with him because he paid her to handle the business. I asked about the additional $40.00 charge. It was a service charge and wear and tear on the tools. What??? I told her I would not pay them until they sent someone out to make the job right. Her response was "We'll come take the door down". I never heard another word from them even though I made several calls to them and left multiple messages. The door has a large gap at the top because it is not hanging level. He split my door jam when installing the hinge because he refused to drill a pilot hole before placing the screw in the wood. He refused to cut the excess metal from the bottom of the door as instructed by the manufacturer and instead butchered my thresh hold to make it fit. Aside from the one invoice sent by email the day of the service call, they have NEVER sent me bill or an invoice by mail, email or text. Today I get a threatening call from Robert at UCI because Mr. Handyman turned me over to collections. I told Robert that I would be happy to pay the bill in full once the work was done right. He said he could not go back to his client with that, but if I would agree to pay $200.00 we could both go our separate ways. I said I would pay the bill in full when the work is done right. He said he would contact his client and inform them that I was unwilling to settle and they should take further action. Not at all what I told him. Bottom line DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THEY ARE NOT RELIABLE AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THEY'LL RUIN YOUR HOME AND COST YOU MORE MONEY FIXING WHAT THEY DESTROY."

"I believe they cut corners. They move something for me that was not in the scope of their practice damaged my wall in my house and didn?t take ownership to it, but I didn?t even hold that against them. It?s the fact that I went to mop my new floors that they put in the garage with the epoxy, and it started chipping up already just under a month after having them done when I contacted them they told me they did exactly as instructed and there was nothing else they could do for me basically weren?t gonna make it right. I?ve uploaded photos just to show that I?m not an angry Karen. I?m just very sad that they seem like really nice people, but they were just in it to make a dollar quick work and not quality. I was going to hire them for our company as we are about to be a new homebuilder. I?m glad I experimented on my own house and not what I?m selling. I uploaded pictures to show the paint chipping up off of the garage floor, and then the damage of The wall inside"

It's best to stain your new fence after the wood has fully dried, which usually takes about six to eight weeks after installation. Waiting ensures the stain adheres properly, giving your fence lasting protection. Staining a fence usually takes three to five days. You'll start by cleaning the wood and letting it dry for at least 24 hours. After applying the stain, you'll need to wait 12 to 24 hours for each coat to dry.
Paint lasts longer than stain—about five to 10 years compared to stain's one to eight years. Painting requires more prep work and multiple coats, but offers a durable, long-lasting finish. Staining is less labor-intensive and allows the wood's natural beauty to show, but may need more frequent reapplication. Consider your maintenance preferences and desired look when choosing between the two.
Yes, you should stain both sides of your fence. Staining both sides provides complete protection from weather, moisture, and pests, extending your fence's lifespan and keeping it looking good. If your fence borders a neighbor’s property, communicate with them about splitting the cost of staining both sides of the fence or work out an agreement that satisfies both parties.
