Lindsay C. says, “They do amazing quality work, are efficient and punctual. Our neighbors and parents are using them not from how impressed they were with the work we got done. Go with these guys!”
Dawn F. says, “I initially contacted them through Thumbtack to request drywall repair at my residence. Their prompt response was highly commendable. The quoted price was both reasonable and fair, and I am particularly appreciative of their ability to complete the repair within a few hours of my request. Effective communication was a key aspect of their service, and I would undoubtedly consider utilizing their expertise for future handyman tasks should the need arise.”
Katy W. says, “The team showed up and fixed damaged drywall in our ceiling. They did a nice job patching the holes and adding texture so you can’t tell where it was repaired. They asked me each time if I was happy with the work and It was good enough in my opinion. Even when I said yes, they still added a few more touches and reconfirmed with me that it was good to go. They were very detailed beyond my expectations!”
Daniel W. says, “First job was to stain my fence. 2nd job was some drywall work. Both jobs were done on time and for a good price. I’m would gladly hire this company again for my home in Easton Park!”
LaJune C. says, “I would like to say more about “what I liked about HAT Home Repair.” He was also responsive and professional! I had placed a ad request for handyman to tear out and replaced Sheetrock to our old water heater closet and patch two holes in our garage wall. Cláudio came out, did his evaluation. He told me what he what was needed. He wrote up a bid and submitted to me. I sent his bid to my husband since he is the final decision make on financier. Let l! Just to be fair since Thumbtack sent 3 more handymen, I met with them. Their quotes were all over the place. My husband and I felt a stronger connection to Cláudio. He quoted an awesome rate. He told me what he was going to do first. Then, scheduled when he could be there. Cláudio was a very nice young gentleman to work with, and I would like to hire him again for some other jobs we want done in our house. Thank you Cláudio! Albert & LaJune Fritts”
David Q. says, “Some drywall on teh ceiling had to be replaced as well as repairing an old leak from a skylight. They also painted the entire room. All of this was done in one day! They were responsive and very communicative from the start, and the work was professional and quick. I would recommend them highly.”
James Winwood says, “The Lone Star team recently completed a long list of renovations that included repairing multiple cracks in the drywall and painting the walls and ceiling of the hallway and kitchen. They had to do a major job of replacing the rotted floor of the bathroom and leveling the supports to the bathroom and hallway to prevent further cracking of the drywall. They also replaced and insulated the hot water lines to the bathroom and kitchen sinks that had been non-functional for several years. They also installed a new water heater. Then came a simply spectacular remodel of the bathroom that turned it into the best looking room in the house. It is now modern and beautiful. They also removed and replaced aging electrical fixtures. They would send us pictures each day to show us the progress they had made so we were kept up to date about the work they were doing. We are completely pleased with their level of communication during the project, and more than happy with team's final result. They were professional, on time, and on budget. We plan on using them for the rest of our remodeling tasks in the future.”
Marcus B. says, “We couldn’t be happier with our bathroom remodel. The finished product came out even better than we could have imagined. From start to finish, he was professional, polite, and easy to work with. What really stood out was how flexible and accommodating he was when my wife decided to make design changes during the process. Instead of making it stressful, he worked with us to make sure everything turned out exactly how we wanted. The quality of the work is outstanding, attention to detail was great, and the whole experience was smooth. Highly recommend to anyone looking for honest, quality work.”
Rich A. says, “These guys did exactly what they said. At one point I wanted a change that meant some rework, and they did not hesitate they just made the change. It was done very quick and very professional. Very happy with our new driveway!”
