    Putting up shelves and other odd jobs around the house.

    Posted 2 days ago

    Sam was very lovely and no job was too much trouble. He found solutions that I hadn’t thought of and finished the jobs to a high standard.

    Punctual and tidy

    Posted 4 days ago

    I needed a grab-bag of small jobs done - fitting a cat flap, sorting some sticking doors, fitting a roman blind, and putting up some mirrors and a shoe and coat rack. Sam was great - good communication, turned up when he said he would, didn't leave till everything was done to my satisfaction (which included refixing a mirror where I'd not been clear on instructions for placement!). Took the time to measure and ensure racks were fitted centrally; also fixed a broken hook and added a fixing for the blind cord. Left everything neat and tidy. Would use again.

    One of a kind problem-fixer!

    Posted 07 August

    Sam has been a fantastic help to me and has been so flexible and reliable. He has been a godsend when other tradesmen have badly let me down and has fixed many issues…stains on walls, painting, door damage, sanding and varnishing flooring. He also gives welcome advice on issues and tips and is not only honest and extremely practical but so kind, composed and a pleasure to have in your house. He is thoughtful genuine lovely supportive person to know when you are stressed and troubled over issues in your house. He is a one of a kind problem fixer

    Professional, experienced, kind, helpful - the best!

    Posted 04 August

    Sam exceeded all of my expectations. Not only was he professional and knowledgeable, but he was also extremely kind, helpful and generous. He went above and beyond and was integral to the whole project. He came equipped with all the tools we needed for the day and was very strong which helped with all the physical jobs. I am so, so grateful to have found a handyman like Sam and would love to use him for all of our future projects! I highly recommend him to anyone who wants an exceptional handyman! Thanks again Sam.

    Excellent 5 Star Plus

    Posted 01 August

    I was recommended to Sam by a good friend of mine who said he was excellent. She was so right. Re repaired a shed door for me. Spent ages trying to find the best solution for me as it wasnt a standard size. He was helpful, diligent, hard working and did a fantastic job and al at a very affordable price. Would 100% use him again and high recommend him
