"Mr. Barrett was sensational. My home is 35 years old, and the faucet handle was so badly corroded that it was difficult even to turn off the water. In spite of the corrosion and difficulty in removing the old fixture and installing the new one, Mr. Barrett never lost his patience and continued to work on the fixture at a time when most plumbers probably would have given up and tried to sell me lots of expensive new piping. I used Handyman Barrett for the first time just one week ago for an entirely different project, and I will certainly call him again for any home projects."

We are a locally owned and operated business with over 37 years of experience in the construction industry. We are a company based on Quality & Integrity. We believe honesty is the best policy.
"This company was referred by a friend who had used them for flips in the past and had positive experiences. Perhaps it was due to Randy not being available during our job to run things, but we had an absolutely terrible experience. Long story short, I'd give the final work product a C, and that may be generous. Orlando regularly cut corners or ignored issues, which led to multiple redos. Project was way over schedule and extremely stressful. We were also treated terribly by Jackie, who accused of us lying and being too picky. Long version... We had a pretty straightforward kitchen update, new granite, backsplash, repoly on cabinets and a new wet bar/cabinet to replace a desk. Demo went well and took about a week, then we waited 3 weeks (with no working kitchen) for granite. We had to contact the granite sub directly to get any updates and schedule installation. The initial backsplash install (subway tile) was absolutely terrible and amateurish. No miter cuts on shluter and raw edges on all outside corners. On first redo, Orlando tried to cut corners to reduce tile replacement, so it still looked terrible. Third attempt, not great, but acceptable. Throughout entirety of backsplash installs, no supervisor came to our house to direct the work, so it was left to us to work with Orlando and try to problem solve to correct the problems. After waiting 8 weeks beyond the originally promised date for the cabinet, they installed it in the wrong place and it was not centered under the existing hanging cabinet. We did not notice this until the backsplash was installed and it became obvious. When talking to Orlando about it, he said he noticed it before installing the backsplash. So I guess he was just hoping we wouldn't notice? Another corner cut. To reduce rework, we agreed to moving the upper cabinet and redoing the top row of backsplash. Not ideal, but acceptable. Then came the repoly of the cabinets. After initial application, we noticed several drips and brush marks. Showed them to Orlando and he attempted to fix. Result was so much worse! Next day, I get a final invoice. No walk through as indicated in the contract. When I explained the new issues with the poly, Jackie accused of us making up the issues and just trying to skirt the last payment. No supervisor had been to our house to inspect the work and she's accusing us of lying! In the back and forth, she starts by stating neither me or my wife were there to inspect the work. When I point out that I was working from home all day, she says she was misinformed and then the story changes to I was standing over Orlando watching him work. Also not true as I was working in my basement office and Orlando left without telling me. So who is lying at this point? Then she simply demands final payment, completely ignoring our complaints. I demand that a supervisor finally come to our house to actually review the work, so Dustin finally does. Guess what, he confirms our complaints were valid and indicates the method Orlando was using to apply poly to the cabinets was wrong. So Orlando reworks them again. We're still not happy with the final product, but decided to pay the invoice and cut our losses, because it was obviously not going to get any better. One other note...every time payment came due, we'd get an invoice emailed to us late in the week with demand for immediate payment so they could make payroll. This company has been in business for 30+ years and they can't make payroll unless they get my $3k payment on Friday? This is either a lie or an indicator of a poorly managed and struggling company. Either answer is a big red flag! Now bring on the response to this review that will undoubtedly blame us and include a bunch of excuses. We got plenty of those throughout the nearly 4 months our project took to complete."

Yes, vinyl flooring is a cost-effective option that can enhance the appearance of your home. While it may not be as durable as hardwood, lasting around 10 years, it offers an affordable way to achieve an attractive look. If you plan to live in your home for decades, you might consider hardwood floors, but for a budget-friendly, stylish solution, vinyl is a great choice.
Installing vinyl flooring can increase your home's appeal to potential buyers. It mimics the aesthetics of hardwood flooring, which can attract buyers and potentially help your home sell faster.
Laminate flooring is less expensive and meets budget-friendly requirements, whereas vinyl flooring presents a waterproof core that ensures outstanding durability in moisture-prone areas. Vinyl flooring delivers superior performance and design versatility, making it a robust option compared to laminate. Cost figures show laminate priced at $1 to $5 per square foot and vinyl at $3 to $7 per square foot. This clear cost and performance contrast helps homeowners decide which flooring type best meets their functional and aesthetic needs.
No extra underlay is required when installing vinyl flooring because the flooring includes a built-in cushioned backing that guarantees comfort and stability. In situations where the subfloor exhibits unevenness, adding a thin layer of underlay can enhance the final appearance and performance. Professional vinyl floor installers follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure optimal installation conditions, which secures durability and preserves the quality of the finished floor.
