Extremely overpriced. Would not have gone with them if I was not in a bind.

Response from Company:

Just wanted to say we fixed the screens and the windows gave a price before we did it. The price was not the problem was the screens and the window. People get paid for what they do we charge her $285 and change the taxes alone was high and fees is high we charge with what we did. we pay insurance and workmen?s comp gas tools just to help people that need the help. Funny how no one say anything when the job is getting fixed but as soon as it done we are bad expensive handyman don?t know what we do never get nothing done company. Please save the Drama

Very responsive. Gave me an on-site estimate almost as soon as I got them on the phone. Price estimate was very reasonable and was the price I paid. Quality work and even ran to the store to get some materials that were different than anticipated. A friendly family business!

Jensen P. and his men were very gracious, as I said in my previous review. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trusting that they had covered popcorn ceilings with wood tongue and groove planking before. I was confused as to why the space between the planks was not filled in so Jensen had his men return the following day to spray paint the living room, hallway, and bedroom. When it was done, it looked the same. I was so frustrated that I just wanted to say goodbye, even though Jensen offered to have his men come back again. It seemed to me that they really would not have the knowledge to the problem so I paid the balance due and said Aloha. I have since had someone who knows what he is doing offer to help. He said that Jensen had used the wrong kind of wood. The wood he used is for roofing. In any event, I regret the previous review I sent, even though I did not talk about the great job they had done, what I did say about everyone being accommodating was very true.

Response from Company:

Sorry for the miscommunication but the wood that was put on was what you decided to go with because of pricing and you told me that it was fine when I got the last payment. I know you said that we were wiling to redo it. Was still your decision not to, so why make like we never wanted to fix your mistake? Sorry.

Never should have make that appointment. They didn't know what they were doing. The money is a waste. The man said he could not fix it but to try and they will still charge. I refused for him to try. The other guy who was the person I talked to make appointment called the guy. He came back and said he can fix it then all he did was tighten the hinges and adjusted the door closure and he took me $150 and left. Nothing had changed after he left. Problem is the same. Do not trust this handyman.

Response from Company:

Funny how people call sears or any body else and pay but when we come a fix the problem they grumble to pay you. don?t ever do work for that kind of home owners. And any way she canceled her check after the work was done.?

Jensen Pakele was very responsive, he returned my call right away. He understood what I needed when I described by phone and delivered the service very quick. He repaired the problem in my blind's cord in no time. All is back to normal and I am very happy I selected him for the job. Great job Jensen!

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.
