They cancelled 3 out of 4 jobs
I had set the appointment a few weeks in advance. I gave them the list of jobs that needed to be done. They called the day before they were supposed to come out and said 3 of the 4 jobs that I needed done wouldn't be able to be done because it was too cold outside. They never mentioned that the jobs were weather dependent when I set the appointment. I live in Michigan and the appointment was for November 28th, when typically it's cold out. They recommended that I call them back in the spring. Now I have an outside faucet that will be leaking all winter, doors without weatherstripping and a garage door that needs the bottom weatherstripping replaced to keep critters out of my garage all winter. Just very disappointed that no one mentioned that these jobs were weather dependent.
So I'm not able to comment on their work. Still not sure whether I will call them in the spring.
Response from Ace Handyman Services West Oakland & Wayne Counties
I'm sorry this appointment did not work out like you planned. The day of your appointment was 29 degrees and snowing. For safety purposes, Our craftsmen do not use power tools when there is precipitation. Half of your projects were in the elements and best that we recommended rescheduling in the spring so that there would be no damage to your property. If you read our reviews, you will see that our customers are very satisfied with our service. We hope that you will call us in the spring to give us a chance to make things right for you.

Installation of kitchen faucet,& caulking
The guy who you sent did a good job, replacement of faucet.I was totally unaware of your policy of charging $50 for a $5 part. I find this price as gouging your customer.Time it took to fo his work was under 2hours, prophets not a dirty word but price gouging in my book is illegal you should notify the customer of these details in writing before you attempt to get further bonus out of the minimal work that was done. As a disabled veteran on a fixed income you kind of blew it,,price wise. Effective communication is essential if you want to stay in business,trust me you don't want this to end up in a courtroom someday... Or on the news, or BBB, you stating this after the fact is too late. I hope in the future you're company learns how to communicate more effectively,, & No, I would not recommend you to friends. Ace hardware has been around for a long time since I can remember back in the '60s. Again you FAILED in effective communication,about the costs,,in the future should be more open to all your customers before you send somebody out...I could have bought those parts myself and saved $50. The people that you charge are the people who are the reason you are in business today,they fought for the freedoms that people take for granted, remember freedoms aren't free,, we fought for them,and did not ask for anything in return. We are injured for the rest of our lives on fixed incomes. If there is a next time with your company , I'm looking forward to have effectively communication about any outside costs,, that may occur. Thank you... James Kostan.

Thank you, Mr. Kostan for sharing your thoughts. We appreciate input for our customers so to help us provide the best customer service for our customers. However, your review misrepresents our service path with missing facts and incorrect information. We are very transparent with our service path on the initial call; On our initial phone conversation with you, we specifically explained that we work on a time and materials basis, and that materials for your project is an additional cost, When our craftsman arrived at your house, the estimate was reviewed with you a second time, which you agreed to by signing the contract. The final invoice was exactly what we estimated plus the cost of the materials. The materials for your project was much more than $5, I can provide a copy of the receipt, if you like. Your craftsman, Jeff, a U.S. Veteran and highly skilled at his craft, explained to you that the caulk needs to stay dry for 24 hours. Pouring water over the surface 4 hours after the project compromises the integrity of the materials. We attempted to schedule a next day warranty visit with you but you were unavailable. We were able to accommodate your schedule, which you later cancelled stating that you made the repair yourself. We understand that your home is important to you and wish you the best. Thank you for your service; We appreciate your selfless dedication to protecting our freedoms.

Amazing Work!!
My handyperson Kasey was the best I have had in my 30 years of home ownership! She was quick, efficient and did beautiful work. She completed 12 projects in 4 hours, offering to stay over for a few minutes to complete the last one. She asked great questions and confirmed my satisfaction with each job. I couldn’t have been more pleased and will always ask for Kasey for any future requests. Thank you for your outstanding work, Kasey!!

Jeff was very professional, on time and did great work!
Response from Ace Handyman Services West Oakland & Wayne Counties
Thanks Greg, Jeff did not have weather on his side with this project but he was able to pull it off. He was able to diagnose a gutter issue you had over the garage. He installed flashing and diverter so the water will now flow properly to the gutter. Look forward to helping you again in the Northville area.
