    89yr old father-in-law has a bit of water on the floor next to toilet was the call. Repair was replacement of the wax seal at $600. Normally family assists the client but were unable to this time. Once we saw the invoice we were surprised at the high cost and called 6 local licensed plumbers to ask for quotes. Returned quotes were between $150-$300. We contacted Handyman connection asking for a breakdown of cost. It was $250 for diagnosis, $250 for the repair and $100 for shopping including the wax seal. We called and asked for further information and if we can talk to the owner. We were told that they would call back the next day which did not happen. We called back and the rep told us that he did not want to deal with this so we asked for the name of the owner, the reply was "I don't know". It took 5 seconds to find it on the website. Their explanation for the cost was that they charge a base fee of $190 which includes the 1st hour. The $100 shopping fee was because their plumber did not have a wax seal with him and had to go buy one. That leaves $310 charge for what could not be completed in 1hr. H.C. would not adjust the charge however did knock off $80 from the shopping charge. Buyer beware **** - Ottawa

    Hi ****, I am sorry we were not able to resolve this to your satisfaction. The job was completed in May and when you reported the price complaint in Oct, we did a full investigation. We reviewed everything with you and we feel we provided you with a fair solution. Our procedures are designed to protect customers from being over-charged. We do on-site estimates at no charge and no obligation. We estimate by the job, not by the hour, so you know upfront how much it will cost. We only do work once it is approved by the customer.We confirmed that the procedures were followed and the price for labour was fair for the full scope of work performed. We removed the $100 shopping charge and only charged for the $20 in materials that were purchased resulting in an $80 refund.We believe this was a fair resolution.Your father-in-law has done more projects with us since the plumbing repair and has never indicated any concerns with our service.****

    We had a small tiling job that needed to be done. Changing the stove uncovered a portion of untiled wall. Only a few tiles remained from the original job, so the handyman had to be creative. The result: perfect match. We are very satisfied.

    I was very happy with the communication with Handyman Connection and the work done by the contractor. They coordinated appointments and kept me posted on ETAs of the estimators who came by my place for both paint and ********************. The estimators were very knowledgeable and gave good advice. The work done by the electrician was professional, friendly, and very efficient. I would definitely recommend them.

    I was given a metal exterior door to replace my deteriorating wood side door of the garage. Handyman Connection made it happen. The measuring, chiselling and hanging was spot on.

    I am extremely happy with the service provided. My problem was electrical and I was mistaken about the source of the problem, but the handyman recognized from my description the true nature of the problem and came fully prepared. He was friendly, professional and efficient. I am guarding his card in case I or any friend of mine needs help in the future.
