Q:
From the reviews, this individual sounds like a perfect fit for several jobs I need done. I have called him several times and left messages but receive no answers. Is he still in business or has he taken a break for a while?
A:
Sorry I'm booked out for the next few months, trying to get to all my customers but it's taking time. I greatly apologize.

Frank has done numerous jobs for my family and I. He's very knowledgeable- I don't think there is a job he can't do. He always does a great job and unlike many contractors I have worked with he cleans up the area perfectly not leaving one thing behind.
In my opinion, his prices are very fair, especially for electrical work. If you want a job done efficiently with an honest person, Frank and his crew are the ones to call :)Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Favor N.Milpitas, CA245350Jun 8, 2023Updated review
I got a skylight leaking emergency and asked Frank to repair the wall only and he scheduled next month. Plus we talked about a sump pump to be installed at our side yard previously. We had the wall repaired before that and thinking he may have that sump pump to install then. When the date arrived. He isn't showing or leave any time for that, not even quote or schedule a new date. Just no profession no processing. Not like any other workers that shows on time and reply email or text or picking up phone. No plan or no management for that business.
Renew review: I am usually grateful for workers that have done projects in our house so I gave it second chance to do renovations again. After several two large projects has done and paid. He bring workers to my back yard the time he want and ask check price for the same day, I thought to discuss with him a little later. However, when I sand my own handrails with workers in order to save some fund for my son university, he yelled and threw a tantrum for not getting the check he wants last time. He showed up late around 12 and yelled to leave earlier on 3pm. He treated customers no trust and no manners communication. I have a abusive husband that scared my kids and me previously then he shows similar manners when we didn't do anything improper with him. It's terrible way to do business for only want large amount money and no basic respect. He end up didn't even apologize or take responsibility for it. I paid him more than ten checks previously and his estimation always isn't accurate and so much lower. He yelled to get a check at same day notice without discuss the amount previously. We paid double estimated price to install a sump pump and drain, double estimated price to renew the floor of gazebo, and he has no responsibility or gratitude toward projects or customers. It's disappointing and not worthy. He isn't handyman no more. He is just taking contractor's project pretending to be one without proper responsibility and profession.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Aug 27, 2020Previous reviewFrank has done good job and work for us in yard path, bathroom remodel, kitchen remodel. We had good time to learn the work from him and sometimes help together in the remodeling. However, he become too money oriented and busy now. He now may take more profitable project that not even has time to pick up our call or reply text. We got a break in recently and tried call him three times and text him about the situation to get some information. I knew he is busy so I just asked for may just look or help within a hour for just a little consulting and help. Even for that, he won't reply any. If your project is not a lot money, he may not even look it. He has changed not the original humble worker who bring blessings in your hard time. For business, maybe it's good for him. For integrity, I felt sad for him.

Outstanding service from Frank. Very responsive to text messaging and communicating his availability. Fast, reliable, very clean working and an all around nice man. I'd highly recommend Frank for your needs. Had Frank come over to install 3 ceiling fans and did a last minute request for a ring camera door bell for me. Thank Frank!

Frank was really quick getting back to me and was able to schedule the work within a few days. He was prompt, extremely knowledgeable, professional and very friendly. He was in and out with the work completed in a very short time. He even took time to clean up after he was finished. I would highly recommend Frank Bentons Handyman Service if you need any work done. I know Frank will be the first on my list from here on out. Thank you Frank!

Frank recently did a job for me in Shingletown. We needed our roof cleaned up - lots of moss, etc. He was on time, worked very hard and fast. He knew what he was doing and did it well. But when he handed me the invoice I about had a heart attack. I made the mistake of not asking for an estimate. I just assumed I would be paying an hourly rate. The bill for 2 hours was $475. When I asked what his hourly rate was he told me $80 per hour. So I asked why the bill wasn't $160. He said that was his "standard" rate for this type of job. This was a labor only job - no materials. I paid him but I will never use him again. And I was thinking I just found the perfect handyman that I can refer to a lot of my friends who are always looking for someone with Frank's skills.

Susan im sorry you are unsatisfied with your experience with my handyman Service. I assure you if you price your projects , you will be very surprised with the costs of projects these days. You should also factor your location, the cost of fuel. There are different factors that I need to deal with as a business owner. I would like to talk with you and see of there is any way to rectify this situation

Frank installed my garbage disposal. He was quick to respond and schedule an appointment quickly. Frank is professional, friendly and reasonably priced. He shows up when he says he will. He works quickly and cleans up the area. I highly recommend him and will be calling him again for any future needs.

The company, Med Mizer of Indiana, contacted Frank and had him do the replacement. He called to make an appointment, showed up right on time. He made the repair in a timely manner and left everything neat and clean. Frank was professional and friendly. I would definitely call him for any other needs we may have.

I had a plumbing emergency and Frank came out fast and went to the hardware store to get parts needed and he did a super great job. I called several plumbers in my area and none of them even bothered to call back. Frank is very professional and has a great deal of knowledge and I will call him anytime I need work done. He's a very nice polite man and gets the job done~!

Will definitely use him again and again.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Brent M.Modesto, CA064Nov 28, 2018
I spoke with Frank today about a customer of mine who is looking at getting a ground mounted Sunpower solar system installed at their house and would need a fence around it to keep the deer out and away from the system. I am still in the process of speaking with my customer to see if making the switch to solar is going to make sense for them but I wanted to let everyone know how knowledgeable Frank is and how helpful he was to me, a total stranger to him, and how he was able to speak from an extreme level of experience. I have saved his information in my phone in case I need any work up in Red Bluff for any of my customers. He is my #1 recommendation!!! Frank, Great Job Sir and thank you so much for the valuable time you gave to me today.
