Jon at GCS Woodworks provides great service and completes projects well. He repaired a side gate at my home, which I need to have secure due to the pool in the backyard. Jon was punctual, completed the repairs as scheduled, and was really courteous and polite. Out of the several quotes I received from various companies, Jon took the time to explain the repairs needed, answered all my questions, and reviewed the gate. He is knowledgeable and courteous. I would definitely call him again for future projects.

WOMEN BEWARE
Do not book services through them. At first, this family business seemed like a great option for me, as I needed to use my vinyl for them to repair and redo my stairs. As a first time homebuyer, I was lost and really needed guidance about what to do.
1. The stairs originally had carpeting with a skirt. Where the skirt was, the drywall was damaged from pulling the carpet off. They told me to replace drywall and THEN they would do stairs. I did that for $500 and then when they finished the stairs, they left the drywall completely damaged again (see pic) the risers were also left completely unpainted, saying they don't do drywall or painting. I ended up paying $470 more again after the project was complete to finish paint and drywall. I later learned that a stair skirt would've solved my issues. I was never offered that and now it's too late. Why was the job not finished??? Why wasn't I given my options of a stair skirt?
2. My initial project start date was pushed out over two weeks because the installer had a family thing. When they gave me notice, it was for the next day at 7am. I WFH and had to move a lot of meetings (which is okay! I would rather get this project done). Well at 12pm I had an important meeting that could not be moved, I asked the installers to take a 1/2 hour break. I got a scathing email from Marilyn basically saying you don't tell our workers to stop working! -- how do you let your installers work partially outside in AZ without a break....
3. I had to bring my own materials to their office (40 min away) and had to get things measured 2x. I also ordered a doorway reducer which was completely left off the project and never made. When I asked about it, they made me try and measure the doorway and bring them materials--isn't that a contractors job? How am I supposed to measure the height of tile vs vinyl in a doorway (which is millimeters) isn't this part of the service?
4. Installers were not made aware of a specific area to do, so when I said yes that part is included I got yet another scathing email from Michael / Marilyn saying that I was telling the installers to do extra work. They clearly have communication issues.
5. When installers came back to redo some vinyl that was lifting, they tried to guilt trip me, saying we did this area and didn't know we were not supposed to do it so we never got paid -- sounds like their employers problem.
6. When I tried to get them to come back and fix that spot, Michael called me and absolutely BERATED me on the phone. I'm not kidding-- my whole family witnessed it. He yelled at me saying I was trying to cheat them out of the project. What I was simply trying to say (and could not get out because the owner Michael was literally SCREAMING at me. ) was that I was not going to pay until they came back and made a reducer and fixed the lifting vinyl. They wanted me to again run the materials up and measure myself for their communication lapse (I have emails to prove I included a reducer). He stated he would send his lawyer after me if I didn't pay ASAP --again project was not complete.
To the installers: please create your own business on Thumbtack so you don't have to work for this company. You work hard and seem to not be treated as well as you could.
Overall, if you are a women or someone who does not know a lot about Millworking, please please look to book elsewhere. I am traumatized from Michael screaming at me and the communication between multiple family members and installers for this project was an absolute mess. I ended up letting them know that I could only email from them on. STAY AWAY!!!!! Get everything in writing!!!!!

I contacted Jaime at Jag Home Services after another handyman in Ahwatukee last minute was not able to perform the work and the replacement person failed to schedule. But let me tell you, I am so glad. I have now found a reasonable, reliable, communicative handyman that is also licensed, bonded and insured. My immediate need was to have two hanging garage storage. I will def be contacting Jaime for other jobs!

Dan built and installed cabinets in an existing framed wall, where there were no cabinets previously. A job which needed surgical precision, removing the wall between two load bearing posts.
He expertly removed the wall. built and installed the cabinets as if this was an everyday type of job for him.
Three Other cabinet companies came to bid, but were hesitant, until one company gave me Dan's name and #.
The job came out better than I imagined.
He is professional in his work, and is a man of integrity.
Highly recommended!

I recently hired Colonial Crown & Trim to replace all of my baseboards and door trim. Nate came out to quote the job within one day and luckily was able to schedule my job for the very next week. His crew showed up first thing in the morning, on-time. The supervisor walked the job with me and then he took his lead worker around and reviewed the job with him. No surprises, no misunderstanding of what needed to be done. Within an hour, all the furniture was moved and demolition begun. The crew was fast, efficient and the most extraordinary thing was they cleaned as they worked. I was even able to work from my home office as they worked on the first day. The second day they moved the furniture, removed the old baseboard, installed new baseboard, caulked, spackled, touch-up painted and cleaned up my office all on one day while finishing up the rest of the job. I can't say enough about how impressed I was by this group. No hesitation to hire again.

After communicating Chris from Mr PhxIt returned today 9/6 as we scheduled! Chris replaced the newly fallen roof tile. He did reglue pigeon spikes (these were the 2 main concerns of mine). Additionally, Chris did glue an entire extra row of spikes (not there initially) to keep the birds from roosting at the entry door. All in all, Chris PhxIt did my roof repairs, tune up, and return visit for a successful job. Thanks, Chris.

Dale was great. He tore out the existing adobe style fireplace surround and replaced it with a gorgeous knotty alder mantle. Wow! Beautiful craftsmanship. He also added a door between the master bedroom and bath. I love my door! He was efficient, communicative and very fair prices. We will definitely use his services again. Thank you Dale!

Needed a frame for a pocket door. The ones at the Home Depot and such seemed pretty cheesy to me to I looked around a bit and found these guys. What an elegant and sturdy piece of design. Easy to install, operates beautifully. Worth every penny, they delivered it to the house.

Hired Diamond Hammer to complete some buyer requested repairs on my house while it was in the process of being sold. I used them because they were able to complete a variety of home repairs from electrical to pool plumbing. Chad was very professional and completed repairs efficiently and at the cost they originally estimated.

Re Classy Closets Chandler
I have yet to receive a quote or any correspondence from your company after the appointment with your designer over one week ago. As you came highly recommended I am shocked that the experience turned out to be a waste of my time.
I have to assume that the designer was not interested in our project (a built in office wall) as she indicated that if another vendor can give us what we want then we should just go with them. Apparently my desired layout did not meet her standards and a designer. We were open to other designs and options and have several projects planned in addition to our office - including a media wall, three closets, and garage storage. I was also cautioned during the meeting that what I wanted would be expensive and probably not in my budget (wow that is offensive). I never stated what our budget was for the project . . . Quotes received from others have ranged from 4-10k depending on materials so the 6-8k the designer threw out did not shock me. However, we will happily use another vendor and make sure we share our experience.

Hired this company to help me with a heavy, sagging front door since nobody else seemed to be able to. The first guy didn't seem to be able to fix it so Garret showed up and fixed it. Great service and great company that takes care of it's customers!
