Bixno Handy

Bixno Handy installed two pendant lights in my kitchen and did an awesome job. The project was originally a DIY, and when I realized I was in over my head Nolan was able to come out the very next day. Reasonably priced and great work ethic, I will definitely hire them for odd jobs again in the future.

These gentlemen were professional, focused, and obviously very competent in carpentry and electrical work. Bixno Handy will be our go to company for home projects. We highly recommend.

Nolan and Tim did a GREAT job mounting my 70"""" TV on a tiled surface and on top of my fireplace. They were diligent, timely and professional. Would definitely recommend Nolan if you want to get things done right.

Nolan really went above and beyond in mounting my murphy bed to the wall. I really appreciated how thoughtful he and Tim were about the whole process - not just interested in getting it done, but in doing it as well as possible!

Had a great experience with Bixno Handy! They were professional, quick and efficient. I will definitely use them again!

I found this business because my neighbor had Nolan out to give an estimate to repair the fence. I had Nolan's card and contacted him on a Saturday when my husband desperately needed a Depict Frame hung on the wall for a product review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkEUpp7Gp9M Nolan offered to come out on a Sunday for an additional cost and minimum 2 hours. I asked if he would be willing to do other work for the 2 hours and he said he would be. We agreed to the price and he gave an estimated time to arrive the following day (Sunday). Nolan communicated clearly via text on his expected arrival. He seemed to be training a new person which made some of the process seem to take a little more time but when we got to the end he actually charged us slightly less than he said he would for the Sunday visit. We both found Nolan to be professional. We had 2 new TVs mounted. He explained why the mounts we purchased were not the best and since our were returnable we purchased what he sold and felt his price was fair. He also hung the Depict frame my husband needed to review. One of the TVs he installed had an issue and he offered to take it down but my husband said he would look at it and get it working. Once we got the TV on we could see there was some damage done on the installation but we were headed out for vacation. Nolan sent a follow up text to see how everything was and I told him about the situation but that we were traveling internationally so there was a bit of a delay before we were able to communicate. My husband worked with Nolan on the issue and told me that everything was taken care of, we were both satisfied with the resolution and to leave him a 5 star review. No problem!

Jarom, Tim and Nolan showed up on time, did a great job, were knowledgeable and creative, finished early and charged me fairly. I'm really not sure what more you could ask from a handyman. They took down a satellite dish, cut and sealed off the wires, changed some exterior lights and sealed all the holes in our house that were open to birds high up. I've had really bad experiences with contractors and while remodeling our home and this was honestly one of the easiest. We have had people not show up, people not finish the project and everything else you could think of and the interaction with these guys was smooth and easy. We already asked them to come back and pressure wash and stain our deck and fence.

The short version: They're not licensed electricians, which doesn't necessarily matter if you know what you're doing. These guys don't know what they're doing. They did my job wrong, wouldn't make it right, and the owner was borderline abusive when I complained. This might be culturally appropriate in Texas, but it really doesn't fly here. Avoid. The long version: I engaged Bixno Handy to perform the following tasks: - Install two ceiling light fixtures - Install three smoke detectors - Install a receptacle on the same circuit as a kitchen fixture - Diagnose a heater that wasn't getting power - Remove base molding from around crawlspace and install a handle. They followed up politely and professionally, and promptly dispatched two technicians. The appointment was rescheduled several times during the day because their other job ran long, but I was flexible. The guys did just fine installing the light fixtures and the smoke detectors. Installing a fixture on the ceiling wasn't workable because there wasn't the right equipment, and this was a reasonable call. I was disappointed, but since there wasn't a way to do it without cutting a hole in the ceiling, I was fine with them not taking on this project. The work with the base molding was so-so; they removed it, installed a handle, but didn't get the proportions right and didn't reinstall it with screws like I'd asked. It was a last-minute addition to the project (since we had extra time on the clock, and they bill by the full hour) so I don't fault them for my failure to appropriately scope the project. The primary issue was with diagnosing my heater, the billing, and how the owner responded. As it turns out, there is a switch on the bottom of the thermostat. It was turned off and this is the only thing that was ever wrong. These guys didn't find that problem, but spent an hour chasing a """"fault"""" that wasn't really a fault--the electric line was 240v and they assumed it was 120v, which behaves differently. I ended up having to hire a licensed electrician for about $220 to undo everything they did. He wrote up in detail everything that Bixno Handy did incorrectly, and advised me not to have them do electrical work because they were not licensed and didn't have proper training. When I contacted Nolan Bixler, the owner, to see if he was willing to adjust the bill, he instead called me up to chew me out. He claims I was abusive to his guys (I was polite and professional, but did expect them to work the full two hours I was paying for), and made it clear that not only was he unwilling to adjust the bill, he'd put me on his blacklist. """"I'm going to have trucks all over this town,"""" he said """"and we're never going to work with you."""" Nolan needn't worry. I'm not inclined to work with him again. If you need a TV mounted on the wall, these guys are probably capable. However, if you have any more complicated problems, this company is best avoided. More importantly, expect that the mercurial owner will keep your money, won't fix anything, and will blacklist you for complaining.

Hired Nolan to mount a TV in a tile wall and scheduled out about 10 days. When I called again a couple days later (on a Saturday) to add another element to the job he told me he was in the neighborhood and could take care of it that day if I wanted. Heck yes!! Knowledgeable, capable, well equipped and and a hell of a nice guy. Got both my jobs done by himself in 3 hours flat. Would hire again.

We hired Nolan and his team to install a hood vent and fan that was (supposedly) the same measurements as the one already installed. When they began the installation, they found the new model was shaped slightly different than the old one. Undeterred, they set about to fit the new vent into the tiny space above our range. The job took longer than anticipated, but they found a way to fit it! They were prompt, friendly, polite and kept us informed about the job all the way through. We'll use these guys again the future! Thanks!
