I use them - I moved into my house 3 years ago, and my husband is not handy! I look through our local Penny Saver for Handymen and the like, and then check them out on Angie's List, along with the Better Business Bureau. Both Angie's List and Better Business Bureau have saved me from potential problems. I will probably not renew Angie's List after this year; we are about done, and have our craftspeople in place.
