First of all, Gary did not tell me over the phone that he would be unable to replace my sliding glass door lock because it was a hurricane door and the locks are very expensive. He only carries regular sliding door locks. All of the sliding patio doors on the galt ocean drive would be hurricane doors since the condo units are right on the beach. He came to my house and made an adjustment to the lock indicating that this was all that it needed. Shortly, he discovered that the lock still did not work. He installed a screw lock that screws into a hole he drilled into the frame of the door.. This cost me $85 cash. Outrageous!

I had originally scheduled service from Gary for Tuesday, February 23, 2010, at 10am. However, the closing on my new condo in Margate, Florida, finished a lot earlier than anticipated. I still had packing and things to do on the following day, because I was flying out in the early afternoon. I phoned Gary and asked if it were possible for him to come out that very afternoon so that when I left Florida, nobody would have keys to my condo other than myself. Gary arrived within an hour, had rekeyed both locks and replaced a tumbler within a matter of minutes. Would I recommend A-Best? YOU BET!!!!!!!! Thank you A-Best.

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

To find more licensing information for your state, visit our Licensing Requirements page. Note that some states require local or county level licensing and you should verify whether or not your pro is properly licensed.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.



NOTE: Member service professional information confirmed as described above may change or expire over time; while HomeAdvisor attempts to maintain accurate and up-to-date information, and confirms changes when notified, we cannot guarantee that profile and screening information is accurate. Therefore, we recommend that before working with a service professional you verify that information presented is still current and/or acceptable to you.
