Darren was kind and communicative. He was knowledgeable and able to fix a multi-faceted problem with a kitchen light. This was at a rental property and he communicated with my tenant for me to arrange a time that worked for them both. He was reasonable, skilled, and respectful. We will definitely be using him in the future.

Darren was great. I add him install two light fixtures that weren't so easy to reach. He was responsive, well priced, and effective.

Needed 2 exterior lights replaced. Darren advised me on the types of fixture and even sent a link to the items at Home Depot. Was able to schedule me for the following day, though he had a busy schedule, and arrived promptly on time. One of the lamps had the wrong base but he was able to work around it. Pricing was very fair. Would not hesitate to use his services in the future.
Details: Replacement of existing lighting • 2-4 lights • These lights will not be installed in the ceiling • Outdoors • Existing property • House

I had a great experience with Darren, he was prompt in responding to my requests, polite, and did not leave a mess after the job was done. Will recommend and use again for future installation. Note: Picture is missing a bulb because the manufacturer sent a cracked one.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I price by the job Not By The Hr (thumbtack requires me to put a hrs rate so that is usually not accurate) the price i bid you at is the price it will cost to get the task done regardless of time. i have skills so something that could take someone else 2hrs to complete may only take me 1hr. im very thorough and particular and get things cone neat & right (see my reviews) if you want a hack for cheap that will do a slap job there are plenty on here & i im not for you. i take pride on making every customer happy and like to leave you with a smile on your face and will do ANYTHING to accomplish that.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
information & thorough decriptions (with photos) are key!
it saves time which saves you money and any unforseen surprises
once original contact has been made i will give you my number and photos and info can be sent via text
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
