Mr Done Right

We’ve used Don for 2 projects now, one major (filling a sinkhole under our driveway) and one a little more minor (some custom door repairs & replacement) and we’ve also got him signed up for another project soon. What amazes me is his depth of knowledge and understanding regarding how to fix a very wide range of problems. Don has always been easy to work with, very honest about cost and timelines, and he provides a range of options. He’s happy to do the quick and easy fix if you’re on a budget which I’ve appreciated, but he’s always been patient and taken the time to explain why and how a better job will last longer.
Like I said we’ve got him booked for another project which should tell you how happy we are with his work.

Don Fenton, AKA Mr. Don Right, is the best, most reliable, and most versatile handyman I have worked with in my life (I’m in my 60’s, and I’ve worked with a lot of handymen).
He is extremely knowledgeable, very patient and informative with his explanations, and clearly explains both diagnoses of problems, and options and solutions. He is extremely resourceful and creative in thinking up solutions. He is very purposeful, organized, and timely in carrying out whatever the plan is.
He also informs you when a problem is outside his competence. This hasn’t happened more than once, I think. He really knows a lot. Point is: he is honest about what he can and can’t do.
He is also rigorously punctual, is really good about getting back to you, and is a genuinely nice guy.
All in all: he is the REAL DEAL. We turn to him first now for all our household fix-​it issues.

It was a pleasure working with Don and his crew. I had a flawed house with lots of potential and a long list of things not quite completed properly by the guy who did the remodel.
My list was also a little embarrassing because it contained quite a few things I felt I should’ve been able to do myself, as the oldest daughter of the consummate Mr. Fix-​It. But let’s face it, I just wasn’t paying attention.
So they rode to my rescue in two white trucks, spent the day making everything so much better, and now I feel that my house is finally complete. Don is both kind and utterly professional. He’ll tell you when something doesn’t really need to be done, and give you options. The psychological relief is enormous – I’ll call him for sure the next time the dread «list» accumulates.

Just look at the before and after photos I’ve posted for a kitchen refresh Don and crew did for us last month.
Artist I tell you… a true artist.
Wish we could afford to have him build us a new house from the ground up because holy shit he’s awesome!
Many more projects we have on our wishlist for The Artist Formerly Known as Don Fenton!

What a professional class act! I’ve been a contractor myself for twenty years and this guy made ME feel like I had been slacking for all twenty! We hired Mr. Done Right to do some light construction and punch list items at our new construction company officed and warehouse. It became cleat after a couple days that the noise was going to be to disruptive to continue working during business hours. Without batting an eye they say «We’ll just work at night, then». The men worked straight through two nights in a row to finish our project before our national owner arrived on Friday! Not the slightest complaint and all while keeping a cleaner job site than I right humanly possible! Thank you Mr. Done Right for reminding me what quality and professionalism looks like!

Rating SUPERIOR for Mr. Done Right. First acquainted with Don Fenton, Mr. Done Right 10 years ago in New Orleans as members of a team from our church, doing cleanups and repairs in project RHINO (Returning Hope in new Orleans), following Hurricane Katrina. Don’s skills and work ethic were abundantly apparent and extremely effective. The team leader had employed Don for personal projects and recommended him highly. We began to employ him for home repairs and improvements to our complete satisfaction, from complete replacement of a large defective deck to solving and repairing a long-​term significant plumbing leak, which had been unresolved by professional plumbers. Whatever the problem or project around our home, we call Mr. Done Right first and finally. Don is analytical, meticulous, thorough, business-​like and easy to work with; while busy, he schedules jobs and stays at it. He and his crews are hardworking, courteous, maintaining safe and clean work site. We think his pricing is fair and reasonable and have always felt we received excellent value.

Mr Done Right is in very high demand and he is very busy. There is a reason for this. He is very professional, honest and does high quality work. He goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are 100% fully satisfied. I would highly recommend his services to others looking for a good handyman for any of their homes needs. Thank you again.

On time, kind, professional, fast, efficient, good at what they do! They completed my whole list in less than an hour. They were able to accomplish each task along with a couple of extra things. Can’t ask for more than that. I’ve literally never had a handyman in my home before. Thank you so much for being awesome and making it a good experience. I wouldn’t call anyone else for handyman work.

Professional, and good workmanship. However, $ 469.00 is not what most people expect to be charged to have a soap dish replaced.

I don’t feel like writing a long review, nor do I feel it is necessary. Don is incredibly professional, and did an outstanding job fixing our water damaged bathroom subfloor. I would trust him on any job, and he has no problem referring a job when necessary.

Super professional craftmanship. Since a picture can speak thousand words, check out the 2 uploaded photos for the driveway fence lights that Don put in for me.
We started with a plain black fence that was hard to see at night. Don went beyond to source for a number of lamps and we ended up with these perfectly match ones. The electrical wiring is well hidden that nobody can tell that the lamps are not from the original.

Don came out the same day that I called and did a free consultation. He was knowledgeable about the job — repairing and replacing water-​damaged drywall in our bathroom — and he was straightforward and polite. I’ll definitely call him again for home repair work.

This company is outstanding! Don Fenton is a professional. 5 stars all the way! If you want a quality job with dependability you have found it.
Great Job!

Don came over to help us with the «simple» task of changing the batteries on our smoke detectors specially for one that was approx. 20ft up. He and his partner were polite, professional, good communicators when setting up the appointment, and pretty much everything you could ask for in great handyman. Greatly appreciate his help and his professionalism with the job. I’ll certainly have him and his team back for more complicated tasks. Great to work with!

Don has done a ton of work for us over more than 5 years, from small (regrouting the kids’ bathroom) to a complete, down-​to-​the-​studs kitchen renovation. He’s always done an awesome job, been easy to work with, has very high standards for his work, and we’ve been extremely happy with everything he’s done. He pays attention to costs, and his work is beautiful.

Don and his crew came to my home to install a pet door in the wall and move the 220 and vent for my dryer. Both jobs presented with issues that Don explained to me, then proposed options. Once completed, I was thrilled! The work was done professionally, they were polite, they cleaned up after themselves, and there was definitely value in the work done. I have more projects that need to be done, and will be asking Don back to do that work as well. He’s someone I can trust to do the job right.

Faulty toilets, bathtub replacement, problems with faucets, even issues with windows and unstable mail box… I have known Don for the past two years and I have never been disappointed in his services.
Don is the best repair guy I have ever come across. He is prompt, polite, hard working and definitely knows his job.
I would highly recommend him to anyone.
On 3÷23÷15 I began having problems with my toilet and needed a stove to be leveled, so I called Don Fenton again. Although this was far from an emergency, I was amazed when Don arrived at my home in less than an hour and took care of the issues right away. I am super impressed by Don Fenton who is committed to customer service and satisfaction.

Don has done work for us at two different homes. He was recommended to us by a good friend. His prices are reasonable but the main reason I like to use him is because he does an excellent job and he is incredibly reliable. Additionally he does not suggest additional repairs just to charge us more. I’m very ignorant when it comes to home repair so I’m very happy to have someone do the work that I can trust.

Mr. Fenton purchased an extremely large Morgan storage building from me after I had hesitantly placed an ad on craigslist. Among my many trepidations, the most daunting was the fact that the enormous shed would have to be disassembled on-​site and removed from the side gate of my backyard.
After arranging a time for removal, Mr. Fenton and his crew of polite professionals arrived on time and worked diligently to disassemble and remove the shed without any damage to my backyard or fence. They completed the task in a few hours and even picked up the trash that had been collecting underneath-​for God knows how many years, even after I had told them that it wasn’t necessary to do so.
Since purchasing our home, last week, with this eyesore of a space-​suck, my husband and I are relieved to have a full backyard and are blessed that Mr. Fenton answered our ad. It is abundantly evident that his professionalism and customer-​care parlay into everything he does. With a new-​old home on our hands, full of updates to be done, we will definitely be seeking the expertise of the Mr. Done Right team. This gentleman and his associates are a Class Act!

Don Fenton did a ‘small’ job for me on 10÷4÷13 and I was quite satisfied. The job was to install an exterior overhead fan under an outdoor pergola. Actual mounting of fan was straightforward and was nicely done. The wiring was a more complex task and Don was able to develop a good solution using existing switch box locations and wiring. His solution enabled a minimum of exterior conduit and the five or six feet of conduit that had to be installed on the pergola was deftly hidden.
Don charged on a time and materials basis and I know he efficiently spent the time and passed along his contractor discount on the materials. I am familiar with hourly billing rates as differentiated from actual net after overhead and payroll tax burdens and consider his hourly rate quite reasonable for the expertise that he brings to the job. You may have to wait for a few weeks for a job since he seems to be busy but I was completely satisfied with the work and would hire him again.
Another small job 2÷3÷15. Don Fenton, as Mr. Done Right, completed another job for me. I am confident from his work on my two small jobs that his larger jobs would show the same attention to detail. If you are looking for cheap, go to Craigslist. If you are looking to get a job done to code and done right, Don will do it at a fair price. He added two electrical outlets and did job that would have taken me three or four times as long and would have not met the electrical code requirements.
