DIY shower faucet repair gone bad

It started with a hard-to-close faucet in the basement shower. Thought this was a simple DIY, until the shower handle would not come off. Ended up stripping the retaining screw, hack-sawing off the handle and still could not get it off. Enter Jonathan. He came in the same day for a look-see, gave me a good picture of what the situation could be, best case/worst case, and a quote. Turned out to be a horribly corroded handle which took three blades on a reciprocating saw and a huge effort to remove, but Jonathan did it carefully, and finally it came off, with no damage to the tile work or the valve. He fitted the new trim, cleaned up very well, fitted a couple of ball valves to allow the shower to be isolated, and left me with a re-caulked shower, a refitted spout and a one-year warranty. Most pleasant to deal with, very professional and I would recommend him and re-hire without any hesitation at all.

Approximate cost of services:
$700.00
