Walter went over and beyond to get the work done. He re-mounted my TV, helped clear out all my old furniture without a single complaint and left my house very clean I live on the 3rd floor and he wasn’t even aware of this before his arrival so I thought he was going to complain since he would have to carry stuff down the flight of stairs on several trips but he performed the job graciously. I was really impressed at his professionalism and will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs work done. I give him 5 stars. Attached some before and after pictures

Walty responded almost immediately and came the next day! I hired him to take down my old TV out of its really thick tubular iron wall stand and replace it with a new one that was just delivered by Costco.com. Unbeknownst to me, the screws were stripped (from an over tightening by my last installer) and he kindly went out of his way to drive all the way to Home Depot and get the proper tool to loosen them! He, then installed the new one.Tempted by the possibility of exchanging the new 70" for the 75" Samsung Smart TV, I was promised over the phone by an agent from Costco.com that they'd perfectly coordinate the exchange. Long story LONG..The delivery dudes (admittedly not their job) tried to dismount the TV but discovered that this time some of the screws were still stripped and abandoned the effort. So, I texted Walty who offered to come back and help me when he had time. Thankfully, my son and I powered through two auto-cancelations by the Costco hired installers 10 minutes before the appointmen and took it down ourselves and back to the nearest warehouse. Anyway, he's a good guy.

I was insistent that whoever set up a pole in my home had experience. At home poles are typically pressure mounted, and we've all seen videos of what happens when they are not properly installed! I cannot emphasize how important it is to hire someone local, and one person, or a small outfit, versus some seemingly big company. My first attempt was to hire a company that had hundreds of jobs under their belt. They immediately answered all my messages within 1 minute, day or night, which should have been my first clue that this "big" company used virtual assistants overseas to schedule random people they don't really know. They assured me that the technician who was coming had installed poles before, and even sent me pictures. Instead, they sent someone who didn't know what he was doing, and literally scratched his head while poring over the instructions and making a lame attempt to match up the puzzle pieces. Walt, on the other hand, did a great job. He took his time, made several measurements, and tested the ceiling before installation. After 4 months of use, I can report the pole is as solid as the day he installed it. Don't mess around when it comes to getting a job done right. Walt is your local handyman, I highly recommend his services.

Walty and his cohort quickly and efficiently unloaded and set up my new living room furniture in record time. They even gave me their opinion (solicited) for placement. Nice guys. I’ll definitely use their services again.

Alex did a great job moving a tricky piece of furniture from one house to another! He came prepared and got creative when we ran into unexpected issues. He was also transparent and clear about the price both upfront and when he arrived and saw the extra complexity of the job. Thank you!
