Recommended Customer Reviews

Ted's was awesome. They are really busy so make sure you try to call them early. Ted came out on his day off to service my house. Had to redo many little things in the bathroom such as the vent, window, tub, sinks, etc. He also serviced our common area in our small community. Would use him for our next projects. Highly recommend!

I had a fan that went out, but I couldn't figure out why (Didn't seem to be the chain or the fan). He went straight into debugging the issue. He walked me through each step he was thinking and taking. After tracing the wires and testing different sockets, he found the short quickly thereafter. I no longer have to live in the dark!
He did a great job replacing the kitchen and bathroom faucets/handles. He even added some electrical cover plates and switches that were missing (for free).
Thanks Ted!

My riser that receives the main electrical line and sends it to the electric box became detached from the wall of our house. The only thing keeping it from falling was the fact that it was bolted to the box, which in turn was showing signs of detaching from the wall. I called the Response Team and Ted answered and had me text him pictures. He then texted back a description of a plan for re-securing the pole. I liked his responsiveness and that he was already thinking ahead. He arrived on time the following evening, assessed what needed to be done, made a trip to the hardware store for the correct bolts, fought against the tension placed on the pole by the main line, and, after some effort, was able to finally secure the pole. What a relief! I hope to use him and his company for future home projects.

This job was tricky with a lot of weird things done by the previous owner. They had to do some serious on-the-fly problem solving and did an amazing job!
They were professional, courteous and reasonable priced. I highly recommend them and will definitely be hiring this company again.

Great experience with Ted at Response team. He installed a ceiling fan and two bookcases in the girls room. Work was completed diligently in about two hours. We're very happy with the results.

NO RESPONSE. How does this company have all these great reviews yet they don't follow up with me to come out and fix my home!?
I sent an email with what I needed done. I got a response within minutes asking me for my name and address/contact number. That was 3 weeks ago. Still no follow through.

Had to get some work done in my kitchen. Found out about this service through one of my friends and I'm glad i didn't hesitate. Got a quick response and quote. Very good work too. Thank you guys

I inquired about getting some can lights installed this guy is claiming he is licensed electrician when asked for his license number he said it's available once I book the job.. so he unlicensed and passing him self off as a electrician which he is not. He a HANDYMAN not a licensed electrician.

Ted did a great job with fixing the electric for my outdoor fountain. Have had 3 people out prior and he was able to fix it extremely fast. Great work and reasonable prices. Found out he has a team that can do many jobs so will be contacting them to get me some estimates for my projects. Thanks again!

Awesome service, truth be told, I don't do reviews. I was very pleased, I hope you if you need a handyman, choose these people. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
