Stuart has been amazing yet again. I had numerous jobs for him to do, from putting up shelves to putting together a flat-packed office desk to fixing an extractor hood. Nothing is too much trouble for Stuart. Not only is he very methodical in his work, he is also an extremely personable and reliable handyman to have. Thanks again Stuart, very much appreciated.Verified reviewerJob location: ME110 Fitting new electric shower

This is the second job that Stuart has undertaken for us with exceptional workmanship. Stuart is always very professional and takes on board what is required offering the best solution for job. We wanted an electric shower fitted into the loft conversion bathroom which has very limited space for pipework, but with Stuart's vast knowledge and expertise we had very neat and accessible pipework installed. He also removed, cleaned and re sealed the plastic covers around the shower tray, leaving the job nice and clean. We would have no hesitation in calling upon Suart in the futureVerified reviewerJob location: DA1210 Excellent handyman!

Posted 25 June
Stuart is always a pleasure. Very nice person. This is my second time hiring him for work. The bookcase was built to perfection as always with attention to detail. Very nice person. He even helped bring the boxes of the flatpack and other boxes down to the bins. He was very punctual and a few minutes early/on time to the job. Quoting was simple and I was able to get a timeslot relatively quickly.Verified reviewerJob location: ME110 Various jobs: painting bedroom, installing shelving, replacing gate post + repairs

Stuart was everything you could ask for in a tradesperson. Excellent, clear and helpful communication before the job. Showed up exactly when he said he would, was friendly, tidy and completed all of the jobs efficiently and to an excellent standard. Will be my first port of call next time I have things that need doing around the house, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.Verified reviewerJob location: ME1
