Dont bother. Completely unreliable. I got a good deal for this company to hang my Christmas lights in 2011. Even though I had read a lot of bad reviews about them It was too cheap to pass up. They hung them and came back in January to take them down for me. They called me in November 2012 to see if they could do it again. It wasnt that great of deal this time but it included putting them up and taking them down. They put them up as scheduled but In February the lights were still up. I called and talked to Tommie the owner and asked when they would be taken down. He said he was sorry and would send someone out the next day. No one showed. Over the next 2 weeks I called 5 times and my husband called several more times but Tommie ignored our calls. I texted with no response. left several messages with no return call. We finally had to pay someone else to take them down. I would definetly not recommend using them. Horrible customer service. BEWARE!

This company is a NIGHTMARE!!! BEWARE. Their work is shoddy, they have little work ethnic and r not courteous of ur time or appointments. RUN AWAY as fast as u can.

I bought a Groupon for Holiday Light installation. I schedulded a appointment and the company is a no show with no contact. I attempted to contact the company and the phone is disconnected. I can understand missing an appointment but no contact is not good business. Never do business with this company.

What a bunch of talent-​less hacks. Like many others I too spent the day working at home in the event this bozos would show up. Guess how the story ends?
Got the refund from Groupon, but no phone-​calls or letting me know the gig was off…

I also bought the light installation. They did come to install my lights and also offered to sell me $ 120 clips. F that S. I I said that I’ll run down to Lowes and get my own, but was warned if they had to wait on me just one minute it would be a $ 55 charge per hour. I got back in 15 minutes, they weren’t finished working, but he said that he was waiting on me (since he was sitting in his truck smoking) so I got charged that plus tax. When they were done with the install, they left, said everything worked. Then, when I turned them on that night there was a section that wasn’t working. I called to get them to come out and fix them. She scheduled me once, they didn’t come, she scheduled me another time, they didn’t come. Now, you can’t get a hold of the company at all. Did they go out of business because of this groupon? Groupon did return my money, but who is going to come and take these lights down now after Christmas. Son of a gun.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! Like all the other reviewers, I had a groupon for light installation and have been waiting for the installer to arrive. I have been calling the company all morning and there is no way to leave a message. Now that I am on Unilocal,I see that I am in good company. What a horrible business!

I bought their Groupon for the Holiday Light Installation. I won’t go into my lengthy explanation… bottom line. I used my own C– 9 lights and clips… the Owner told me the clips I purchased were teh wrong ones. I paid $ 16 for 300. So I asked him how much his clips were… OMG .50 each…$ 150 for clips. What was I to do? They were already had their ladders up and getting the lights in place. He went on tell me at length that he makes no money with Groupon. TMI buddy and not my problem! I thought you did it for the future business and new customers. Turns out, my clips WERE the right ones. just not Exactly like his. Then I found out the Target sells HIS EXACT clip for 100 for $ 3.99. WTH… I called to complain and spoke with his wife. She said she had to think about it and call me back. I never heard from her. I had recommended his Groupon to ALL of my neighbors… the whole neighborhood on our community Facebook page! I feel awful for that! I find out through my neighbors that they are getting quotes for less than what I paid total and their quotes include lights and clips! I even told them I promoted them. is this good business?
I just called Groupon to complain. they have already been banned from Groupon due to complaints and received a refund for the Groupon… I am still stiffed for the additional costs I paid them.
Oh…BEWARE.They are not insured to be up on your roof installing lights!
Slimy sleezy Owner and business practices!

I stayed home from work today to meet MyHandyHubby for my Christmas Lights installation. I’ve called several times to find out when they will arrive, but I keep getting a message, and the mailbox won’t accept any more messages, so I’m pretty sure they aren’t coming — especially based on Laura Z’s comments below.
I am very disappointed in this Groupon too, but I will call to ask for my refund. After calling to schedule a quote to install lights on my 1-​story house (where they provide all the materials), they quoted me a cost of $ 325 (to which they would apply the $ 99 I already paid Groupon, implying I would have to pay $ 226 for the materials). I was VERY disappointed to learn that this quote only covered lights being installed on the front roof line of my house. I’m sorry, but I don’t care how commercial grade the lights are and the fact that maintenance is included, it shouldn’t cost anywhere close to that much to line the front roof of my house with lights.
Considering the value of the installation without the deal (noted on the Groupon) is $ 225, you are talking about a job they would normally charge $ 451 for ($ 225 installation + $ 226 for materials)!! This was definitely NOT a deal, even with the $ 99 installation charge. So I went to Target and purchased the lights, clips, extension cords myself, and I can get my normal handyman to install them for $ 40 an hour.
And now I am waiting for MyHandyHubby to at least call me to tell me they aren’t coming. If they do by some chance show up today, I will delete my negative review. But if they don’t, I stick with my review. I would not recommend using this company to anyone. Some companies just seem to get in over their heads with Groupon.

If you purchased a groupon for the christmas lights, you can get a refund by calling groupon. I got a call today saying that the owner fell off his ladder and they are no longer going to be doing the christmas lights. So, I called groupon and they will refund me.

I got a really good deal with a groupon I bought for this company, 3 rooms and a hallway for $ 59!
I called ASAP to make an app. When the day came for them to come out they never showed, my app was for noon. I called left a VM and then called again, when I did get a call back about an hour after noon the lady apologized and realized she forgot to put me down. They ended up coming out around 3ish and not only did he clean the carpets they threw in a couch cleaning for free to apologize for not showing up.
I was satisfied with the carpet cleaning but I was not happy that they wanted to charge me additional fees for a few red stains I had. I was NOT impressed on the work he did on the couch. When it dried up it did not feel the same and there were drip marks I assume from the hose he used, but I guess it was free so Im not going to complain too much about that.
Overall I have to be honest and say I was satisfied on the look of my carpet minus the red stains and was very impressed that they took the initiative to get him there the same day after they missed my app and threw in the free couch cleaning!

I used this company to have my carpets cleaned, very professional, I will use them every time and I highly recommend them

I recently posted a conversation thread on Unilocal asking for a recommendation for a general handyman to powerwash and stain my deck. It had been done right before I moved into my house (¹¹⁄₀₅), but not since and it was WAY grungy and the wood needed some serious TLC.
A fellow Unilocaler recommended Tommy at MyHandyHubby, and I went for it.
First off, Tommy is a SUPER nice guy. He was able to get to the job quickly, and did an excellent job. And although he wasn’t cheap, he does promise to come in 10% below any other estimates you may have gotten. I purchased the materials and supplies for him, so that kept my costs down.
He did the power washing one morning, then came back and finished up with the staining two days later. Another positive thing about Tommy? He was reliable, and if you’ve ever dealt with flaky, lazy handymen, you know how valuable that quality is.
The deck looks about 110% better, although it’s still pretty slick. (My poor dog is sliding all over the place.) I’m sure this treatment will help the wood endure the harsh summers and wet springs for the next couple of years. The only reason I’m not giving Tommy and MyHandyHubby 5 stars is that he neglected to bring a tarp to cover up the plants in the flowerbeds near the deck, and I’m pretty sure that the stain spraying he did at the end of the job (to get into the crevices and cracks between the deck’s planks) killed about 80% of my plants, which blows.
While Tommy was there, I mentioned to him that I’d been referred by Chad (from Unilocal), and Tommy said that Chad would be getting a discount on some more work he’s having done for the referral. So if any of you have some work you need done and you end up using Tommy, tell ‘em Marla (and Unilocal!) sent you!
