Sam did a great job in putting up the cat proof fencing around our garden, this was not a straight forward job but he came up with all the relevant solutions and the finished product is not at all obtrusive and does work as our cat tried to escape and failed hopelessly. Sam w...

Sam was extremely helpful for us. We needed a battery changed in a smoke detector that was on our warehouse ceiling. Sam came to check it could be done and we booked in a date. The work was done as promised. Will definitely use again. Thanks Sam!

Sam came to restring a Venetian blind for me, a fiddly job, which was no problem for him. I knew he'd be good when he took his shoes off at the door! Two other little jobs also completed, which I couldn't do myself. Sam was polite, knowledgeable and very helpful. Thank you Sam.

I contacted Sam to enquire about reducing my exterior ground levels and installing an Aco drain, to address some internal damp issues in my lounge in my new home. He was priced competitively, and I chose to go with him as I felt he had really given the problem a lot of thought. T...

Sam was hired to do some draft excluding work which he did admirably but he was also adept to fix other problems which were not apparent until bath panels were removed and kitchen units were inspected. Sam was very helpful in fixing completely separate issues on the fly and not j...

Sam, responded quickly to my enquiry about a repair job, confirmed he could complete the work and completed it at the agreed time/cost. All very good. A good experience and I would ask Sam to do work again. John

Brilliant service! Sam assembled a whole bedroom set for us - wardrobe, chest of drawers, and bedside tables. Done in half the time I expected and everything is rock solid. Will definitely use again.

Had a leak under the kitchen sink that had been driving me mad. Sam came out same day, fixed it quickly and cleaned up after himself. Very reasonable price too. Highly recommend.

As an elderly person living alone, it's so reassuring to have someone reliable I can call. Sam has helped me with all sorts - changing lightbulbs, putting up grab rails, even moving some furniture. Always polite and patient. A real lifesaver.

Needed some shelving put up in my home office and a door that wasn't closing properly. Sam sorted both issues and even suggested some improvements I hadn't thought of. Great attention to detail.

Our fence blew down in the storms and Sam was able to come out within a few days to replace the damaged panels. Did a cracking job and the price was very fair. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Had a 65 inch TV and a large mirror that needed mounting. Was worried about doing it myself on the old walls. Sam knew exactly what fixings to use and got everything level first time. Excellent work.
