We were impressed with the quality of the work done by Steve for a fair and reasonable price. We told him what we wanted done and he took care of the rest! Steve was upfront with us about the work and what was involved; he completed the job in the timeframe he said he would; and he followed up to ensure we were happy with his work. I have already recommended Steve to my friends, and I will continue to use his services for future work on our house.
I just wanted to write and tell anyone who was interested in using Cutting Edge service about the experience my husband and I had with them. We recently put our home on the market due to a relocation and we needed to sell fast! Steve Rotthoff came to our home, FREE of charge and did a complete walk through. He told us everything we needed to do to make our house ready to sell. He noticed things we would have never thought to do. He had an eye for even the smallest detail that ended up making a huge impact in the bottom line. The results were amazing, our agent could not believe the changes! Steve worked fast and had no problem letting us help out to defray the cost of labor. Our curb appeal alone went from a level 3 to a "10" in just 3 days. Cutting Edge was meticulous about cleaning up after all painting projects and all other work. He was able to contact carpet cleaners at the last minute and other workers to help move out furniture to help stage the house. My husband and I could not have gotten the house on the market without him. We only wish he could have traveled to Illinois with us to help with the things on our new house. Steve is trustworthy, skilled and highly motivated to get the job done. I can't say enough about all his services. Selling is so stressful, but Steve made the whole process much easier. I only wish we could have had his suggestions earlier.
I have used Steve three times and I find that his work and word are second to none.
He delivers on his promises and always shows up ready to do the job.
I have no problems with him working in our house without me being there.
Steve was referred to us by our Realtor to update several things in our home. He contacted me within a day and was out to take a look promptly. We discussed the things that we knew needed to be done but Steve walked through the entire house and made many good suggestions - some we did and some he did but we are very happy with the outcome and the suggestions he made. He did a great job and did it quickly. I would definitely give Steve a call for future projects.
Honesty Best Quality!
This has been your trade mark since you began business in 1999. I am so proud of you and honored to be your wife! May God continue to bless you and may his Grace shine upon you.
I highly recommend Cutting Edge H.B.Q. to all my fellow agents, friends and family, he is proficient and experienced. Whether you are moving or need home updates or landscaping he will be there to help you in a timely manner with professional service and positive attitude.
We have used Cutting Edge for our Lawn Care and Handyman needs since 2001. Steve and his crew have been very responsive... and when they say they will be there...they are there!! In our real estate business, we need fast, reliable services, in some cases, to keep a house sale from falling through. Cutting Edge are the "go to" guys!!
I recently used Steve's services for a second time. He stay's within budget and gets the job done promptly. He stays in touch throughout the project and get's the job done as he promises. We've been very satisfied.
When I was in the need of a Handy Man, I procrastinated looking for one. It was a task I had not had good luck with in the past. I tried a new approach this time, I stopped to pray about this and asked God to help me find someone. After a few days I called our church, and asked Pastor Pat if she had a name for me. She indeed did, and had glowing words for Steve. He had not only worked on her house but her daughters home as well. I gave Steve a call for what I thought was going to be many small jobs. But the first and most important was a leak in our kitchen. When I went to buy a new dishwasher we found mold behind it and that was the start of my new kitchen. Steve found mold saturated walls behind the counters and a water saturated subfloor that was ready to fall apart. I was devastated and overwhelmed. Steve assured me he could take care of the whole thing, I was more then a little skeptical at that statement. Here I am now, a few weeks later, with a beautiful new kitchen that is so much more functional for our family. I now have twice the amount of storage and counter space. My kitchen is beautiful and we were able to stay on budget as well as a reasonable time frame. Steve actually finished the job a week early. Steve's workmanship is great and he makes sure all the small details are taken care of. Here we are at the end of this project, I am able to cross off the check list that I and most people look for when hiring someone.
Craftsmanship
Reliability
Staying with in budget
Honesty
Finishing in a timely matter
Attention to details
Listening to what *I really want
However I found the most important things to me about Steve were not on that list. I never had to hear our Lord's name said in vain. I didn't have to hear about someone's drunken binge. I never had to worry about what my kids were going to hear. I didn't need to worry about my family being exposed to inappropriate music. I had never left my kids home alone in the house with a worker before. For the first time, I felt safe to do that with Steve. My kids adore Steve and think he is very funny. Steve went above and beyond what I expected. He turned out to be so much more then a handy man. He was my contractor, carpenter, electrician, and plumber. More importantly, Steve is a Godly man, a man with integrity, a man who adores his wife and still lights up when he talks about her. He is a man who loves being a father, and truly realizes that job is a gift from God. These may not be on the regular list that we look for when hiring someone. But it speaks volumes as to what kind of character he has. Character may be more important then anything, when inviting someone into your home for a month. At the end of this job, I not only found a great handy man who I will use again, but I found a man who I am proud to call a friend.

Steve did an excellent job at an excellent price. I give him my highest recommendation. And I could tell he genuinely cared about making sure the job was done right.
I was so pleased with the quality of work done on my lawn cleanup last fall and again this spring. Steve is very fair and reasonably priced. I hope more people use the services of Cutting Edge HBQ. Thank you, Steve. Donna Surfus
Cutting Edge service was excellent--timely, of superior quality, fair, and reasonable. I felt comfortable while work (exterior siding/painting replacement and garage door installation)was happening and appreciated the communication about the progress as we moved through the process.
I am confident about recommending Steve's service to friends and family.
