Handyman Connection of Charleston

Based on my first experience with Handyman connection installing my attic stairs, I would've rated them 5 stars. Because the handyman did a great job, I contacted them again when I had an issue with my water heater leaking. I contacted Handyman Connection via their website and told them my water heater was leaking & that I wanted an estimate to get it repaired. I was contacted in a timely manner and set up an appointment. The handyman came to inspect the water heater the same day. I showed him the water spot in my ceiling that cued me to the leak. He went into the attic & advised me that my water heater wasn't leaking. I asked him what else could it be b/c I was under the impression the water heater was the only water source in the attic. He advised it was possibly my AC leaking (both my water heater & AC ducts were in my attic) and he recommended I contact an AC technician, which I did. The AC technician was able to come later that day (with a $40 service call fee). He advised me it was highly unlikely my AC was leaking because it was winter & I wasn't using the AC. I advised him I had already had my water heater checked by a (supposedly) reliable handyman and was told my water heater wasn't leaking. The AC technician went into the attic, checked my AC unit & confirmed it wasn't leaking. I showed him the water spot in my bathroom ceiling and he went back in the attic for less than 2 minutes and came back downstairs only to tell me my water heater WAS leaking & he had taken pictures for me to see. I still had to pay him the $40 service call fee because that is what I agreed to even though there was nothing wrong with my AC. I contacted Handyman Connection via email & let them know the handyman had given incorrect information about the water heater not leaking. I asked that a different handyman be sent out to repair the water heater and respectfully asked that the $40 I paid the AC guy (unnecessarily) be taken off the cost of repair. The owner & I emailed back & forth and he eventually called to tell me that I needed to contact a plumbing company to repair my water heater because his company doesn't do that type of work. However, the website clearly lists water heater repair/replacement as a service they offer. He then proceeds to tell me that "As far as the $40 is concerned, I don't think that's a bad price to pay because you at least know what's wrong now." I was livid because I told them in my iniitial request for service what was wrong. If they didn't do that kind of work, they should've never wasted my time in sending out a technician to give me an estimate to repair it. Needless to say, I am one repeat customer that will NEVER use this company again. I can live with a handyman making a mistake, but the owner took no ownership whatsoever, which I can't accept. I am now left to pay for the repair (which I should definitely pay for), but I also am out the $40 due to a misdiagnosis by Handyman Connection.

We had crown molding installed throughout the house and the workmanship was excellent as was the craftsman himself and the customer service, and all with a fair price! We would definitely use again!

Called them out to help with a number of projects around the house. Very happy with the response time and service.

I had them do some sheet rock repair and painting. Fair price and quality work. Showed up on time. Will use again.

I had such a long list of numerous types of projects and repairs, I thought it would take forever to call a plumber, then an electrician, carpenter, painter, etc. This company was able to handle every item on my list and saved me a lot of time and money. They were at my home when promised, the handymen were knowledgeable and friendly, and the customer service was excellent. I will not l;hesitate to call the Handyman Connection any time in the future for all my home repairs and projects.

I made an appointment a week and a half in advance and confirmed it the day before; on day of service I was contacted 2 hours after the time a technician was suppose to be here to tell me that they were unable to keep the scheduled appointment. The individual who contacted me presented no solution; this company is 100% unreliable. I would suggest never using this company and contacting another handyman service.
