NorthWoods Handyman has been an excellent partner for a number of repairs we're making to our farm house. Ron, the owner, came out to our house at our scheduled time to do an initial estimate of the repairs. He explained how he worked, who he'd bring out with him and what we could expect. My respect for him rose right away when he told us straight out that there was one type of repair he didn't do (carpet patching). I'd rather have someone tell me that up front than try to do it and make a mess of it!
Ron and his team did everything they said they were going to do and more. Along the way, they made good recommendations to make things even better (adding baseboards to the flooring, for example). They were patient when I changed my mind on the shower surround I wanted, and returned the old one to Home Depot without complaint. They even helped us move furniture around to make room for the flooring installation. Ron picked up all the materials we needed, credited back any extra items, and provided receipts for everything without my having to ask for them.
The repairs they have made look great. And the new flooring they installed in the basement is fantastic! Everyone who has seen it has commented about how great it looks. They've also been very respectful of our house and our time, letting us know when they are arriving or leaving, cleaning up after themselves, and just generally taking care of things. There was no mess left behind when they were done.
We will definitely be using NorthWoods Handyman again. In fact, we have already asked him to estimate four more projects for us, and are looking forwards to getting those completed.

UPDATE: We contracted NorthWoods Handyman again to complete some more minor projects, including one really icky one (pulling down old insulation out of a farm shed). They arrived on time and got everything done in two days! The work was excellent, and we're very pleased. I've upgraded their punctuality score to an A.

"Straight Line Fencing were quick and professional. They got our fence, which was destroyed by a car, back up in less than a day from the time they started. They also developed and installed a guard rail solution that should prevent this from happening as easily in the future. Power wash and clear coat staining of all existing fence was also completed quickly and professionally."

"He was very good. He did a really nice job. I had to have him come back and hang a blind that was ordered and it took me a while to put it back to hang it because I didn't know how to hang it. The bathroom work was beautiful. It was very well done. It was very fast, very good workmanship overall and he had good ideas. As a matter of fact my daughter used him after I did to do a bathroom at her house and she is very satisfied too. The quality was excellent."

"The bonus room, above the garage, was the coldest place in the house in winter, and the hottest in summer.   Air was coming in through the trim/baseboard, and the sub-floor itself was very cold in winter.  The goal Omni Services (OS) and I agreed to was to provide a year-round comfortable space.  As a consumer, I wanted the room to be "air tight" but OS could not guarantee that.
In preparation for the bonus room work, I removed the trim, carpet and pad for later re-use, and cut out (as best I could) some agreed-on 4x8 and 4x12 sections of the existing drywall, so we could see what was going on inside the walls and ceiling.  The scope-of-work document had Omni Services (OS) removing the sub-floor as well, to check out the insulation beneath it, but ultimately OS didn't deem that necessary, as they found a different way to add insulation. [So in hindsight I removed the carpet and pad unnecessarily.]
OS determined:
  a. the ceiling insulation was wrong for the space (R30 was crammed in, R19 should have been used)
  b. the roof above the bonus room (2x8 boards between the ceiling and the roof) had insufficient  ventilation
  c. there was insufficient insulation in the garage attic (adjacent to the bonus room) that was a continuation of the roof above the bonus room
 
What OS did for the ceiling:
  a. removed the R30 from most of the ceiling
  b. installed "proper vent"  (a way for air to flow between the lower and upper parts of the roof) where the R30 had been
  c. replaced the R30 (that was removed) with R19
  d. added some exterior ventilation (around the gutters and in the garage attic) to allow more air into the "proper vent"
  NOTE:  I had a roofing company install ridge-cap ventilation above the bonus room; OS's work was pointless without that
 
What OS did for the garage attic adjacent to the bonus room:
  a. install foam board insulation over the sloping area (continuation of the bonus room roof, into the attic)
  b. spray in more insulation
What OS did for the sub-floor:
  a. accessed the underside of the sub-floor from either the garage attic or the limited space between the bonus room walls and the ceiling (which continued downward into the garage attic)
  b. sprayed in more insulation
THE BAD: Once the drywall was replaced, taped, etc., and before the trim was put back on, there was still significant airflow into the room, where the drywall met the sub-floor.  I had not expected this, nor had OS.  I "fixed" this by using a combination of low-expanding foam from a can, leftover fiberglass insulation, and drywall mud.  Air was also coming in from the drywall holes cut for the electrical boxes, but styrofoam covers fixed that.
What OS did for the main attic stairs (accessible from the bonus room):
  a. manufactured a cover using leftover foam board and other materials
  b. installed the cover above the pull-down attic stairs
  c.  sprayed in more insulation in the attic, in the area around the new cover
What OS did for the doors:
After I removed the trim from the French doors, OS replaced one of the doors, which had warped.  I painted the door, then OS reinstalled the trim.
BOTTOM LINE:  We do not yet know whether the bonus-room goal was met.   We won't know until we have a string of really hot days, and another string of really cold days.
