Chad’s Handyman Service

Chad did a really good job for me… I needed a quick turnaround installing a hot water heater, I’d do it myself but I don’t have the tools, found Chad on Craig’s list. Had a good conversation about his experience, he’s been doing handyman work for over a decade, installed too many hot water heaters to count. I also asked him about the terrible review here on Unilocal — he explained the circumstances honestly and genuinely. The price was right so I took a chance and hired him. I had a chance to watch his work — he is deliberate and thorough and most importantly, he knew how to install a hot water heater
Hard working guys like this need another chance sometimes after a bad review — Chad pulled through for me so don’t let the previous review scare you off — and of course as always, do your homework, check references, and caveat emptor…

So i was looking for a handy man to do some repairs around the house and found him on craigslist, he came twice to do some repairs around the house, he was extremely slow and talked a lot. The third time, i was home and he request and upfront payment of $ 1500 from my dad to purchase some equipments he would need. Till date we have called and called his phone he never picks up. Initially he told us he has a family emergency he was handling and he would be back to fix them. Now he just never picks up our call yet he keeps posting his ads on Craigslist working for other people. He is a FRAUD do not use him. We have filled a report against him and they are trying to track him down.
