Hired on Thumbtack

Paid for two hours, required, and completed the main job. Job took 20 minutes? Was trying to hire a full time handyman so had a few additional items to install for shower/ master bath so I purchased a few other items for install. Especially if there was a minimum two hours I was being charged for. This handyman was very nice but also seemed disinterested to help with other items. Didn’t seem to want to try and everything was a no. I really wanted my new shower head to match but seemed disinterested to change out or remove old one for us to figure out how to install new part. Instead broke my knob which he said as corroded but it wasn’t. After he broke one would assume he’d want to install the new part. But nope. He did help with unscrewing a stripped screw in the wall so very thankful. But I just assumed because I was paying two hours he would consider other small projects like changing out an old outdoor hose which he couldn’t do and instead told me to put on WD40 Woulda’t a handyman have this in his truck? Made no sense he he seemed disinterested and not very handy. Told me even though there is a two hour minimum, he still charges per item? It’s very confusing but I know have to replace a knob that he broke. Again I had the part in the box but he basically would look and tell me no.

Martin was prompt, responsive, and his work product was excellent. He installed maple plank flooring in three of my rooms and they look fabulous in spite of some tricky problems, such as rooms that weren't quite square and uneven subflooring. He delivered as promised, and I'll happily hire him again!
