Digging tree holes and cutting/fitting a new shelf
Didn’t have to wait ages for an appointment, arrived when they said they would. Friendly handyman. Did a good job for a decent price. Found a piece of mdf he cut to size to make me a new kitchen shelf.
No show
I had high expectations as Bits Bobs n Odd Jobs were very responsive over email and were charging a high price. Arranged to work from home for the day (not easy in my job) but the handyman did not arrive in time to complete the work. Very disappointed and unsure as to why this job was booked in when the handyman did not have availability to complete it.

We sincerely apologise we let you down, our handyman had over run on the day due to an unforeseen issue on the previous job that could not be left unattended. We rang to say we were running late but still within our given arrival window of 1pm to 4pm but may not be able to complete all the jobs due to a potential lack of time. The client was not happy with this so cancelled the appointment. We take great pride in what we do and are very sorry we let you down on this occasion.
Fixing 3 door knobs
Do not use this company. Charged over £ 200 to fix 3 door knobs, they required 2 visits to measure up to fit 2 kitchen shelves and then quoted over £ 1000, so obviously I did the job myself for under £ 100. They then debited my account without warning with the £ 200 instead of my landlady's account whom they had invoiced and on whose behalf the work was carried out. Ridiculous. Terrible service, terrible response time, terrible organisation and terrible prices. AVOID

Reply from Bits Bobs And Odd Jobs Ltd
We are very sorry you feel this way, but we would like to set the record straight. The tenant booked this work in directly not the landlady hence taking the tenants card details. We completed the 3 doorknobs on the first visit with no problem. The tenant requested a quote for some shelves which on returning to fit where nothing like the original request hence the requote and price. The tenant did not pay for the original visit after many requests for payment so under company policy the money was withdrawn. We take our work very seriously and will always strive to provide a great service within the bounds of reasonable communication.

Draughtproofing to french doors and replacement of two interior trickle vents
Frank renewed the draughtproofing very competently and there are now no gaps, room warmer, less noise from outside. Trickle vents had to be sourced as those in place no longer available and once to hand Harry replaced them quickly and neatly. Happy with the service
