Nick of Time Handyman Service

Sabrina C.

Services rendered: 1) Replacement of broken thermostat; and 2) ceiling fan removal and installation of new fan.

Pros: 1) Nick is FAST with his communication. He readily and quickly texted me after hours. 2) Nick embodies professionalism. He was courteous the entire time, and even cleaned up the little bits of drywall even though I told him there was no need because I was going to vacuum. I asked to watch him make the repairs, which he did not mind at all. 3) He gave me a two-hour labor quote, and while I feared that he was going to go past 2 hours (because he had to make a run to a home improvement store for a new part to secure the new, heavier fan to the ceiling), he got everything done in 2 hours flat. 4) His labor rates are extremely reasonable.

Cons: 1) None with this experience.

Summary: From start to finish, working with Nick was a breeze. Have a set list of tasks for him (don't add or deviate from it), and enjoy how easily and efficiently he gets the work done.

I called Nick for a broken kitchen faucet. Of four handymen I called, he was the only one who promptly quoted a fair price, had good phone/text etiquette, was clear on what exactly had to be done on the project, and was good about managing expectations.

The Good:
- Prompt and responsive
- Clear explanations
- Fair and reasonable pricing
- Professional

The Bad:
- 2-hour minimum (but not unusual) so I had to come up with other projects to fill up the time

I called Nick because he had good reviews and would probably be available. I was not disappointed. Although he was very busy, he told me he would try to call and come by toward the end of the following day. He came and installed my new side yard sump pump in less than an hour, even though it required routing electrical cord through underground conduit, and hard wiring it into my outdoor GFI circuitry. He overcame difficulty due to the age of the junction box/receptacle, and access through a garden bush that blocked his way. His fee was very reasonable, and he was courteous and capable. I would use him again and heartily recommend him.

I called Nick because I was drawn in by the reviews and his tag line ""Nick of Time."" I needed help with a home office project and I wanted it done sooner than later because my wife and I both work and it's not easy to coordinate time off and activities with our two kids. I called Nick Sunday mid-morning and he arrived late Sunday afternoon to do the job. That's pretty fast!

The job was a bit more complicated than I had described over the phone, however, he gave me a quote and came the next day with one of his crew as he promised and completed the job as promised and didn't charge me a penny more for driving to my home for the initial consultation the day before. He was polite, professional, prompt, and fair in his pricing. I was so pleased with his service that I actually paid over my estimate out of appreciation. I would certainly call Nick again and recommend him as a handyman.

Needed a job completed in our office and called Nick. An easy job, we needed about 45 recessed lightbulbs replaced around our office. He arranged for one of his crew to come out and give us an estimate that afternoon. The guy was friendly and professional, hence the 2 stars. He said Nick would be in touch within the next day or two with an estimate. Never heard back from him. I even gave him a call to see if perhaps he had my number wrong, you know, benefit of the doubt. No response to my message. I guess business must be good when you don't need to return a potential customers call.

Disappointing that there was no follow up.

Called Nick and got a quote that was slightly lower than two other bids I had received. He and his crew came out the next business day and did a great job installing two bathroom fans that were somewhat difficult to replace because the new ones were larger and there was no attic space. Left the bathrooms clean and the fans were installed and working great. Overall great job, friendly and won't hesitate to contact him for my next project.

I called Nick to put together a couple of shelves and some other odd things that I needed done around my new home. He sent his helper who was very nice and good at his job. He put the shelves together rapidly and finished the other work I needed done. Some things couldn't be done and he was honest and just told me that. His prices are good and he was on time and did everything very well. I will definitely use this service in the future.

I needed a bathroom exhaust fan replaced, the new fan being slightly larger than the original.

I discussed the project over the phone with Nick. He gave me an estimate for the project, based on the amount of time he thought it would take.

He showed up on time (a great relief, since I had been stood up by a different handyman the previous week). He completed the job within the timeframe he had estimated, and cleaned up any mess from the job.

I will definitely call Nick when I need a handyman in the future.

We tried to contact 3 handyman services, all with good reviews on YELP. Nick was the only one who we were able to talk to very quickly, and he provided us with a quote over the phone.

We scheduled him to install 2 ceiling fans and a new garbage disposal. He showed up on time, was very friendly, and did an Excellent job, including vacuuming after he was done. He even recommended different mounting hardware for the fans, which saved us some money. The next time I need any type of handyman services, Nick will be our first and only choice !

We had him doing complete remodeling , he had us fooled with low initial bid and start out with great bang, but once work started he had so much extra charges
and he would not give detail list or invoice, have very bad temper !

Bottom line we had to hire another to finish the job after three month , dont fall for his low bid and he will have you going on circles!

Do not fall for low bid and high cost and his temper tantrum if not get his way!!
