***Update***
Gino is obsessed with my review. He called me non stop after I posted about my experience. This must be Gino's third or fourth yelp response to my review. He post a response changes his mind about what he wrote than a few days later takes it down and repost something new. Very unprofessional and unpleasant experience. Please read all of his reviews this is not an isolated incident. Gino I do not want to discuss this matter with you. Please loose my number.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

We appreciate the valuable feedback! We have reached out to the client (Earl) to provide a resolution. We are waiting to hear back. Our terms and conditions are posted on our website and clearly states we charge for materials. The client knew the risk of cutting the floor tile in place and decided to proceed, agreeing with the terms. We saved the client at least $300 by not having to replace the uneven tiles. Unfortunately there was a misunderstanding regarding materials and we sincerely apologize. We are hoping to hear back soon so we can provide resolution. ***Update*** Apparently Earl is not interested in resolving the issue. We tried our best, that is all we can do.
Nov 30, 2018Previous reviewWe hired this company to do some small tile repair. We were told by the owner that he charged a minimum of two hours worth of work. My wife and I agreed to this. During the repair, the handyman damaged our base board. The handyman tried to cover up the damage with some caulking and never reapplied the grout. My wife had to point this out and make him fix the damage and apply grout.
After the work was done the handyman charged us for the baseboard repair. The same baseboard he damaged! When we spoke to the owner we were told that the contract stated "the customer paid for any supplies." The owner felt that our damaged base board was just the cost of doing business and insisted we pay for the supplies. He also stated his employee needed to leave. It had only been 1 1/2 hours, remember we paid for 2. The owner claimed he was loosing money by the employee staying so long.
Our experience with this company was below average. -

To say that Gino is as professional as they come would be an understatement. This should be your go-to company when it comes to any and all things that need to be addressed around and inside your residence. His staff is second to none when it comes to the quality of work that they give you and the final cost is extremely fair where you'll feel tremendously satisfied once the work has been completed.
Gino will respond quickly to you as well, which is contrary to a lot of those other handyman services around the valley. This company obviously takes pride in their trade which is why I would highly recommend Cracker Jacks to anyone who is looking for unfinished projects to finally be completed around the home.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 -

Update: The owner is rude, hot headed and tries to intimidate customers. What business professional text a customer "karma will get you" for posting a Yelp review then says "bye felicia "?
If I could give this guy a zero I would. THEY ARE A SCAM. He quotes me a 4hr job to repair two holes in my wall so fine. He sends over a repair man who told me like 5 times he was sick so he will be a little slow. After 2hrs of him going to get supplies he let's me know that he didn't know the holes were big he was told they were small so the job was going to be alittle longer...then maybe 6hrs. So I call the owner to talk to him about the misquote and instead he tells me he's stressed and doesnt need to deal with this and cancels the job. THE MOST UNPROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE. I guess that's what I get for not hiring someone licensed and bonded. Lesson learned.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Shantell, we sincerely apologize things did not work out. I'm sorry this upset you so much and we understand the frustrations of a quote change but the facts are you added work and the original estimate was over the phone, based on the information you provided. When we arrived and sized up the work it was a lot more than anticipated and you added additional work. We wanted to resolve the issue as we prefer happy clients of course, yet you would rather scream at us and label us as scammers so we cut our losses after several attempts of getting nowhere. I tried my best to understand your side but I can only take so much verbal abuse and being talked/screamed over so it was best for us to leave. We will not be able to make everyone happy and I have to accept that. We invested time and the cost of materials yet you were not charged for this. You reached out later asking us to return as you stated you believed we we're trying to make it right. I did not notice your text until after I saw the review you posted full of gross misrepresentations of the facts. I am sorry it came to that. I genuinely hope your next experience is more positive. Good luck to you!

As a Realtor, I've dealt with several handymen in The Valley and Gino, with CrackerJacks, completely blew our expectations out of the water with not only the quality of work performed but his overall professionalism. We had such a great experience the first time that we've had him back to our house two additional times in less than a month. He was super quick to respond to our request and was able to come over on short notice.
The price was very reasonable and I can't continue to say enough great things about the services we received! We just built a home and had him install ceiling fans, blinds, mounted TVs, and more!
Trust me when I say you will NOT be disappointed!Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 -

Great working with this company. Thank you Yelp!
They contacted us right away after requesting a quote. They were friendly and fair priced. Also, they were quick in fitting us into their busy schedule.
They helped us install a small fence to protect our dog. The job was done perfectly and with professionalism.
Thanks again Yelp!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 -

The service was professional and the workmanship was well-executed. The pricing was exact to the time spent in total of all my little projects. I felt safe being home alone with him and found the chit chat to be pleasant and appropriate. He came with his own varied and ample tools as well as those provided by the companies I'd purchased items from and cleaned up after completing each job. I highly recommend calling in advance to book him and to also be well organized so as to not waste any of the time during your appointment since you're paying for every minute. I'm so comfortable with my first experience that I'm going to make another appointment soon!

I needed to have 2 wall plates installed so that I could run an HDMI cable behind my wall. Something simple that didn't require a full AV specialist but difficult enough since I don't have the tools/expertise to cut through drywall and run cables behind it.
Gino did a great job of explaining exactly what he was going to do and mapping out a game plan with me. He was polite and courteous and even made sure to give me a heads up before he began drilling and cleaned up all debris. The job was completed in a shorter time frame than was estimated.
I would definitely recommend his services to anyone.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Gotta say Gino knocked it out of the park again with his handyman skills and communication. Thanks Gino for always being there for me!
Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0May 28, 2018Previous reviewService doesn't come any better than this folks! Is there a 10 STAR rating on here? If so, Gino deserves every star! I had an emergency repair that needed done ASAP. Gino fit me in his schedule the next day. I needed an entry gate repaired. So I went on Yelp to find a handyman. I messaged him on Yelp for a quote. He got back to me within an hour with a quote. I accepted the quote and he immediately confirmed a date and time. The following day he kept me informed about his arrival time. That is outstanding communication! Gino arrived on time. His job repair was superb. I was very pleased. When I have another project I will definitely call Gino again. Highly recommended handyman service!

Gino and Steve are great. They always showed up on time, prepared and ready to go. They are well educated and have tons of experience to help me set up my new house. They added a spring to the back gate, fixed caulking on my roof, stopped my shower for leading downstairs, helped to install shower hooks and mount TVs with precision, and were overall quick and friendly in doing all that. Highly recommend. Thanks!
