Anyone here ever used a PSD > HTML company before? Worth it? Good job? Use them again?

They're worth it, but evaluate the code first to see if they code in the style you want and code cleanly. The last thing you want them to do is code something that works but is a nightmare to maintain.
I use http://www.shaneriley.com . He's a bit more expensive than the standard ones but I know I get quality from it so it's worth the extra money.

Depends when you need someone Jevad but I do a lot of front end dev so feel free to shoot me a mail.

The problem with his situation is how can he evaluate the code if he's hiring someone to write it for him because he's unable? If it's a time issue and you don't want to write the code, then yes evaluating it would be the way to go.
Just some advice to jevad, if you don't know html, learn it. Writing it from scratch is the only way to get exactly what you want from a layout. Compared to PHP, Java and the link it's pretty easy.

@section_014 Good points. It also really depends on the project. If you're building the architecture and framework for a bigger application, then I'd definitely try and find someone with experience and not use a churn and burn service.
If this is just a blog or small site, you could probably get away with just using anyone of the services out there and no one would really notice or care for that matter.

Seriously though if you end up having a good experience, post back.
