Best Handyman Installation in Baltimore MD

A party got a little out of hand and one of the bathroom doors was broken. Luckily it was cleanly torn off and looked like a quick fix. Jeffrey (the owner) wasted no time responding to me with a very fair quote and immediately made himself available to take a look at the damage. Upon arrival he was very friendly and reassured his quote, only offering to do some caulking for a bit extra. Him and his coworker were very friendly and quick, getting right to work after assessing the door. Jeffrey knew exactly what he needed and started working while his partner grabbed some more tools. A casual conversation with my friend later and the door was fixed! Payment options were flexible and easy. Thank you so much Jeffrey for understanding the urgency of the situation and being there to do a quality job! 5 stars. Would recommend.

Five years ago, I had a good service experience with Scardina. Yesterday, though, Scardina lost all of my respect due to its extremely high costs and its dishonesty. I have an old A/C unit that indeed simply needs replaced per Scardina's recommendations. In getting quoted for a replacement, Scardina's costs are among the most expensive for the replacement, but it's not merely the cost that bothers me. Scardina insists that a blower inside of my house that works in conjunction with the A/C system needs replaced, too, but this is far from the truth. This particular blower is not that old and works well. I dislike this type of dishonesty in trying to push for me to buy more than what is needed. The blower adds a huge amount of money to the cost of the total job.

Being dishonest about needing a new blower was not the only dishonesty  on the part of Scardina during this visit. While Scardina charges $75 to visit a household, they did not inform me until an hour into my appointment that each half hour spent at my property is an additional $75. After it was decided that my unit needed replaced instead of trying to fix it, Scardina left after an hour and forty minutes with $300. I was charged $75 for Scardina to show up and $225 for the hour and 40 minutes the technician was at my house. A good chunk of this time was due to the technician deciding to park a full street block from my house, running back and forth to his vehicle due to grabbing the wrong parts, and him running back and forth to my house when it started raining because he did not remember to cover his tools in the rain. This all happened after Scardina was a full hour late to my appointment after I waited the entirety of a four hour time slot. I was called with twenty minutes left in my appointment window to be informed that Scardina might not show up for four more hours. My whole day was wasted waiting on Scardina, and they had the nerve to charge me $300. Good lawyers hardly charge at a rate of $150 an hour ($75/half hour x 2).

When I called and spoke to a manager, he failed to acknowledge his company's shortcomings and failed to reimburse me some of the money I am owed. I will not work with Scardina again, and they have lost a large sum of money in this replacement due to their high costs and dishonesty.

This company is a big scam. I should not have trusted Jeffrey Muncey and the owner. I paid for a project that was not completed.

Jeff  Muncey locked my property and ran away with the keys without completing the project. I had to buy a new lock and pay a locksmith for a new installation.  I paid upfront $750 to Valley View Handyman Services for nothing. They are not responding to phone calls or texts. This was a total nightmare but I'll make sure that justice will be served.

I have more details but hope this summary warns others so they can avoid similar cons.
