Varying odd end jobs around the house
I'll begin by saying that Sam is as pleasant a person you will ever meet. That being said, I had contacted him to help in addressing a few issues that I was having at my place. These ranged from a couple of floor/stair creaks to significant cracking on my exterior concrete stairs. Sam was punctual and again, very courteous, but his knowledge in certain areas is very limited. Pictures of the cracking were sent his way a week prior to our scheduled appointment and as such, it was assumed that he knew what the job itself entailed to ensure the end result would look as similar as possible to the remainder of the staircase. However, the end result was far from it. The floor creak wasn't addressed at all as he didn't feel comfortable in doing so and the solution to the stair creak was essentially drilling a bunch of screws into the stairs, from the top, into the carpet, damaging it in the process. When it still didn't fix the creaking, I asked him as politely as possible to remove the 10+ screws as I'd arrange to have the stairs fixed via other means. I hate to leave such a negative review because he is really a good guy, but I can't say I was really satisfied at all by this experience.
