Handyman Connection of Mountain View

We presented a difficult challenge in the repairing of our front doors. John was professional and persistent in fixing the door. He went above and beyond the call of duty. We would definitely have him back for other repairs in our house.

I originally went through Handy Man Connection and was not satisfied with the project outcome. However, the owner George stepped up and stood by his business. The project completed by his company were front stairs on a mobile home unit. The wood work of the stairs were amazing, truly, but the carpentry done was not so amazing. I called and complained to George and without hesitation he met me at the project site to see what I was unhappy with. Because I already hired another contractor to fix it, his company was unable to attempt to fix my complaints. But George graciously paid the new contractor for the new carpentry work that was done. George is a honest business man who stands by the work being completed by his employers. I would recommend his business because he is honest, fair, and for the most part, his employee's wood work work was done nicely.

Stan went above and beyond my requests to patch some holes, repair termite damage, and bolster crumbling cement. He not only fixed everything, he made it beautiful! And sturdy. He had a very good eye for design. He had suggestions on how my kids and I could use simple techniques to continue making our home a delight to look at as well as use. I love walking past our back door now. I feel like we were visited by the Mary Poppins of home improvement. Thanks, Handyman Connection!

This seems to be a larger company that then shops the work out to local handymen. I was on the phone and did an intake call with them and then the operator sent me off to another intake operator, who would help me find a carpenter for the job. Lots of talk and no carpenters. EDIT 10/14 I will bump up the review from 2 to 3 stars as the owner of the company wrote me back re the review. As a courtesy I called them again and they did a much better job managing their intake process. They got a former GC out to me pretty quick to quote me for the install of two new doors. The process felt very much like an uber for contractors, later I found out that they are a franchise which explains my first exp. On the plus side, they sent out a guy who did have 50+ yrs exp on the job. However during the quote he mentioned several times that "this is a big job" which seems odd as this is most def not a big job, though I am aware contractors use that term to prep the client for a large quote. The quote came back as $3200 for two doors to be installed. Just the mill work for the new hinges, locks and latches as well as to trim and install the door so it fits the old frame. Thats $1600 per door. I will leave it up the the reader to decided if they would pay someone $3200 to install two doors.
