Best Tile Installation in San Jose CA

I'm honestly baffled at my experience with Paul. Based on his Yelp reviews he seemed like a great guy with experience and reasonable prices. However, when we hit some minor miscommunications he left in a huff and refused to explain why he was angry or let me rectify the situation. Long story short, I would listen to the other bad reviews about him being a bad communicator. Based on the other reviews, it seems like he's really bad at handling situations that are different than what he expects, and becomes extremely frustrated and rude when that happens. Please see the attached text message conversation. We have never spoken on the phone.

I hired him to put up a shelf and put a blind back up on a roller. When he got there, the tenant got confused and thought he was there to redesign the closet. It also turned out that the blind had more issues than we originally thought.

I texted him back within one minute of his message to forget the blind and I would get it replaced, and that the closet was a miscommunication and to hold on as I was going to call the tenant and tell him that he was just there to put the rack back up temporarily and not redesign the closet. He left in a huff and said that the job wasn't what we agreed upon.

It's true that the details of the situation were different than what I originally thought. For example, I told him we didn't have original screws and stuff and he took that to mean we had the mounting bracket but not the hardware. I'm not a handyman and I don't know the technical terms. It was an honest mistake and I would have been happy to pay him for his time and for purchasing whatever hardware or bracket was necessary.

I tried to communicate with him to rectify the situation and offered to still pay him the full fee even though I was going to find someone else to do part of the job. He became rather rude and told me to stop texting him.

I think the reasonable thing for someone to do in this situation is just say hey this is the situation and it's going to cost $X more if you want me to do it instead of getting personally offended.

Ricardo replaced my fill valve and ceiling fan. He was punctual on his visits. He showed great deal of patience, explained the problem & solution to it well and he also performed the work to my satisfaction. I would recommend Ricardo for handyman services and would call him next if there is a need.

I was checking with a lot of contractors for the installation of overhead storage rack in garage and a lot quoted hourly and Anar quoted for the service and not hourly. He gave me the best price and showed up the very next day to install. Anar and his friend were very professional and installed it within an hour. Very happy with the service and will definitely reach out for our future projects.

Dimitrii and his crew installed LED ceiling lights for 4 bedrooms and the family room, as well as removed the popcorn ceiling and installed 6 ceiling fans. He was very reasonable in price, and most of all very courteous and hard working. He and his crew accommodated us and worked through long hours and weekend to get the job done to our satisfaction.  He even offered to paint 2 of the bedrooms and did a good job on that.
Since then we assigned him subsequent jobs of changing a corroded hot water pipe for our tankless water heater, as well as install 3 outdoor sockets in the frontyard, backyard and pool area. All of which were very satisfactorily done!
Extremely pleased with his service and would highly recommend. Very versatile and handy!

Couldn't be better!

Nick fixed and/or diagnosed almost 10 different issues while in the house, ranging from handyman to plumbing to electrical. The best part about hiring him are his license in both electrical and plumbing (for depth of knowledge and my peace of mind) and the fact that he came incredibly prepared, with spare/replacement parts of common items like screws of various specifications and electrical outlets, as well as long tool to install bulbs at 20' height - in his incredibly well equipped truck. In the past when I called handymen, I always wished they could be a 'one stop shop' with the knowledge and tools/parts to fix almost anything - which I could never quite get - this is what you get if you call Nick since he's an excellent general contractor.

Super happy that the house is back up to smoothly running thanks to Nick being at the top of his craft.

Of course, he was also punctual, professional, friendly, and easy to work with, and very honest and fair with pricing, even though its understandably bit on the higher side compared to a less skilled handyman. You get what you pay for!

My tenants had a handful of issues that popped up - toilet valve had an issue where the toilet kept running, a leak in the dishwasher vent causing water to go under and above, and an issue with the microwave range hood not delivering ventilation. I reached out to a number of handyman services and this one was quick, responsive, and able to address all three of them. They provided availability and quickly coordinated with my tenants to pick schedule. On the day of, they gave my tenants a one-hour window, were prompt, and had two repairmen show up. They finished in 45 minutes and since they were able to finish quicker than they anticipated, they actually discounted the price that they initially quoted me. All three issues were taken care of quickly, my tenants were pleased, and I would definitely use them again for future repair needs.

We had to get hammock chair fixed indoors on my ceiling for my kid. I reached out to Nikolai, he was very responsive. Showed up and was able to get the job done on time and professionally. I'm planning to call him back for some other work at home as well.

I originally reached out to Norman when I tried to change out a door knob and was epically unsuccessful. After multiple back and forth emails, phone calls and even FaceTimes, I was still unable to get it off. (He did all this without asking for compensation!) Norman came over a couple weeks later, over 2 hours later, he was finally able to take the old door knob off and put in the new one - this included a lot of investigating, prying, sawing, and finally repainting the door. I guarantee you that was the most complex door knob exchange one will ever encounter. Norman was great!

I purchased a new glass cooktop to replace an old coiled one.  Called Chuck to cut the countertop/tile for the new dimensions of the cooktop and to install the new one.  He was very informative and knowledgeable.  I would definitely work with him again.

Viktor was on time and got right to work on replacing my kitchen garbage disposal.  During and after the installation he cleaned up the work area.  He even brings his own slippers to wear inside the house.  Highly recommended!
