Abby's Handyman

Fritz and George are beyond amazing! They have helped my family and I with so much! We are so grateful for all their work. The have helped with multiple house projects. Abby's installed a kitchen faucet, a basement bathroom sink, smart door bells, and the most recent project a bedroom demolition and remodel. I have a new ceiling with a gorgeous ceiling fan, beautiful crown moulding, two extra outlets and new baseboards.

They painted the entire bedroom and we're incredibly clean during the entire process. For three weeks, they worked with their masks on and we're very prompt and professional. I will continue to use Abby's, no doubt in my mind they are the best and affordable!

Called to obtain baseline info on replacing inside door. Asked 2 questions, did not get the answer ( Fritz said he was in a job and would send info later or in AM) I'm AM still no info. I txt him stating that, response " too busy for the next week" My thought: does not want an informed consumer This informed consumer doesn't want a terrible handyman- beware!

The electrician charged 275 for 10 minutes of work. Replaced one outlet that was burned.

STAY AWAY! Save yourself some trouble. George and his son pretend to know plumbing but they don't. What a scam. I hired them to install a gas water heater, a simple project that should take two hours max. Seven hours went by and they showed no sign of making any progress. They couldn't even solder the copper pipes properly so water kept leaking. At this point it was very clear they had no idea what they were doing or had any experience, so we fired them.

They were also very messy and yelled at each other as they became very frustrated. The next day I call Home Depot. They sent two plumbers who were very profesional and did the job in 1.5 hours. The Home Depot guys couldn't believe what they saw. We learned that the pipes George and his son tried to install weren't even up to code. Also they didn't bother to obtain the required city permit for the project. What a waste of time and money. I'm also complaining to MENARDS where they provided me the info of these loser plumbers.

The worst experience I've ever had with workmen! I am sure he will show photos of my deck - paint covers a lot of problems! George lied about what he was going to do, when he would come and how long it would take. It took 2 months to refinish my deck - a week's job at most. They didn't come or answer emails, texts or phone calls for 2 weeks in the middle of the job.

I thought he had quit! His son did most of the work. The wood was left rough, gouged and damaged. They left a mess every time they worked. They power washed the stripper off, leaving all the doors, windows and screens in the back covered with pieces of old paint. They poured the paintbrush washing water in my plants and left cigarette butts around. When I complained, he was nasty. I would NEVER use them again and do NOT recommend them.

We needed to have a mirror hung up over our couch for an open house. We called 7 handymen companies and Abby's agreed to come out after their other jobs that day. They did an awesome job, were professional and polite. We are definitely going to hire them again!

I hired Abby's to regrout and caulk my tub area. The worker used a grinder and gouged a couple of my non replaceable tile, did not actually use grout, but covered it with some sort of silicone. Mold started growing underneath within a month and did not adequately caulk around the edge of the tub at all. I am having redone at additional cost by someone who actually knows what they are doing. Very disappointed, would not hire again.

George and his (I believe) son came out a few months ago to give an estimate on fixing some shelves I had in the garage. Took them over 2 weeks to give me an estimate, which was an outrageous price. Then he and some workers showed up, without calling, to fix the shelves, demanding that they be paid for the estimate and the work (which I never agree to have them do).

As I was conversing with George, I started to smell something funny. I can not confirm this, but I believe his workers were smoking weed behind my garage. I asked them to leave before I called the cops. Don't waste with these bums. They insult you, blow smoke in your face, and then leave.

I submitted a request for an appointment over the computer, and was promptly called back. They sent someone out for an estimate that week. All was going well. Then.four weeks passed. Still no estimate. This was thousands of dollars worth of work and they never sent an estimate! We called to inquire about it twice and have not heard back from this company. We will NOT be using them. Don't waste your time.
