If you need work done on your house, avoid Jeeves Handyman Services (I figured with them paying for a magnet advertisement in the YP, they'd have some money and therefore be somewhat successful and reliable -- i thought wrong).

They have cancelled my appointment for cleaning our gutters and looking at the water damage (small, but noticeable) at the back doors 4 times now (the 3rd time they 1) tried to cancel the day before because they got the weather predictions entirely backwards, and 2) didn't show up at all, and the dispatcher lady couldn't even locate the guy who was supposed to do it).

Time to move on. I've stayed at home 3 times now, waiting for a handyman and only getting a cancellation call. I no longer have the time to stay at home (this week I was between projects, which was the ideal time to do it; now I'm in a project again and have to be at the office every day).

Damn.

Anybody in VA know of a RELIABLE handyman that keeps appointments?

I've had a running mystery about the Jeeves people going on in my blog this month - they are a front company for a lot of other companies, and the mystery deepens every day. Take a look at http://www.genecowan.com/blog and search for "Jeeves"...
