William Miller Home Repair

3 words: Will is AWESOME. I moved into my current apartment back in May of 2015, but for one reason or another hadn’t put up paintings and this beautiful 40 pound wood framed mirror in my sitting area. It’s been propped up against my walls for over 6 months. Will to the rescue! He not only explained to me what type of tooling he uses to guard against earthquakes, he finished the job quickly with a perfectionist’s eye. Now, every time I walk past that mirror I get to see the beautiful reflection of my million dollar view from Twin Peaks. Thank you, Will!

I waited for months to do a project and finally decided I was just not going to get around to it. I finally broke down and found Will and his partner Dan to help out. These two were timely, friendly, skillful and fast. Really appreciate having that task DONE. Thanks guys!

William MIller Home Repair not only brings you the best of home repair but a personal quality that is welcoming and refreshing. Mr. MIller is creative, innovative, solution oriented, and very reasonably priced for very high calibar work. A home in need needs Will indeed.

Unilocal is getting it wrong, seriously. We have fallen for Will’s 5-​star reviews and pleasant demeanor, but this «dream» contractor turned out to be incompetent, rude, and overpriced.
I got a feeling that Mr. Willer feels entitled to $ 85/​hr for a mediocare job that won’t even hold for two days. He made a lot of promises, but failed to deliver on most of them. He was very slow, late on a few occassions, and his sidekick (Rob?) didn’t help much either. We were told that they would work in parallel (hence $ 50/​hr + $ 35/​hr fees), but that never happened. And beware, if there are any issues with the job he does for you, he won’t even fix it on any reasonable terms. You will have to pay him all over again. I call that a RIPOFF!!! His work gaurantee is a total lie. Mr. Willer offered an hour of his time to fix a job that took him 3+ hours to complete. How does that make sense?
Oh yes, and not only he stood us up on multiple occasions, he has came up with some ridiculous excuses. Unacceptable and childish. He dragged his feet for a few months with a refund, and at the end not only we never saw a penny, but my husband ended up re-​doing a lot of the work himself. I wish we never, ever, ever hired him and I wholeheartedly cannot recommend him to anyone.

Will is the best handyman ever! He’s gona be my handyman for as long as I live in SF, that’s for sure. He’s come to my place twice; once to put my bed frame together and the other time to put up my curtains. Both times I called him kinda short notice and he was here the next day and the SAME day. He was extremely nice, on time and obviously knew what he was doing. When he came to put my bed frame together I also asked him to fix a few other things; my closet door and a drawer on my nightstand. He was willing right away, had no problem with fixing the extra stuff and always had a smile on his face. CALL HIM! Will is the best handyman you’ll ever have, I STRONGLY recommend him. :)

If you have a simple project, you will probably be happy with Will. He is outgoing and personable, and his Unilocal reviews attest to that. But if your project goes awry in his hands, beware. He is the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of handymen.
Out of four projects I had Will work on, two were failures. The first to fail was a sink basin that detached after being allowed to cure for 48 hours. (Will originally estimated it would take 3 hours, then 24 hours, then 48 hours.) When I called Will about the sink he offered to comp me one hour of work and materials towards redoing the sink. I was not impressed by the offer, but he was being nice about it and I was keen to get it fixed.
The next day, another project — a re-​caulking job — came apart as well. This time, I told Will I wasn’t interested in having him do more work, and I asked for a partial refund.
That was when Mr. Hyde and the insults came out. I was petty. I was going to blackmail him via Unilocal. (I’m writing a negative review now, but the thought had not come to mind before he mentioned it.) I make more money than he does; why am I being such a jerk?
When we talked again the next day, he was Dr. Jekyll. He apologized the work did not turn out well, was understanding, and agreed to give a partial refund. He only asked that I wait for 15 days.
Fifteen days later, he did not call. When I called him, he said he needed some checks to clear. Next week, he said.
Next week came, and no call from Will. When I call him again, he asks to meet at a coffee shop in his neighborhood. I show up, but he doesn’t. Over the phone he is so sorry: he had a really important job he had to go to. He didn’t call me because he didn’t have my number handy or something. He promises that he will absolutely drop off the refund at my place later that day or the next day. Then another shade of Mr. Hyde: I should relax, he says, it’s not that large a sum of money. I call him the next day to confirm that he’s coming by. Yes, absolutely, he says.
He never shows up or calls. The evil Mr. Hyde wins.

My roommate and I called William on short notice and luckily, he made time for us which was awesome. We needed to get some stuff repaired in the apt. before moving out to get our deposit back. The work that William did was well beyond our expectations and he was so easy to talk to and understanding. Here’s what he did for us:
–Mount the curtain & blinds back on the wall
–Fix the holes in the walls
–Door lock
–Touch-​up paint for marks on the walls
We’d really recommend William for any type of home repairs needed! Not only he gets the work done and makes it great, the price was as quoted in the beginning which is reasonable. all in all, CALL HIM! :)

Great guy, great work! Will post some pics of his work soon…

I was checking off my to do list before family came to stay with me for the holidays. My guest bedroom door and the door to the bfs man cave were not closing properly… ack!
Will was recommended to me by my old neighbor. I called him up and he was able to come over the next day for a quote. He fit my project in his schedule and the doors were operating perfectly the very next day! YAY!

Will Miller is a friend, so I knew about his skill as a contractor and all around repair guy by the time my company was looking to move offices. We hired him to take the new space from a Soo Emens/​Pod Office design to completion (see some of this office build in Will’s photos).
This project included installing an IKEA kitchen, plumbing, electrical, paint, installing a new wall (framing, sheet rock, taping, filling) and 14-​foot floor-​to-​ceiling curtain/​convertible room divider. Everything was done as quickly to possible and to code.
We LOVE our new space and if anything comes up, Will is quick to drop by with his tool belt and kick-​ass, high-​powered, wireless Li-​On drill.
He’s also a hellova guy who knows a thing or two about customer service and human relations. If you need someone who is no BS and can help you do things at your office or house that you can’t or if you’d like to learn as an apprentice, call this guy.

«I can do that for you» –that’s what my lame boyfriend (now ex) would always tell me when I needed some help around the house. Did he ever do anything to help? NOPE.
Well ladies, let me tell you… forget the deadbeat boyfriend! Call Will!
Will has single handedly turned my home into a bachelorette pad of AWESOME. Things he has helped me with:
* Taped and painted my intricately trimmed Victorian walls
* Assembled IKEA furniture without breaking a sweat
* Mounted heavy wall cabinets and shelves
* Installed new door thresholds for weather-​sealing
* Replaced my door locks
* Earthquake-​proofed my 500lb wardrobe
He did such a great job with all of this and at such a great price that I even had him come into my office to help us out with much more complicated and lengthy jobs.
Highly recommended if you need anything handy done around the house!
