Highlights
“John is lovely and has been a great help while I've been setting up my new flat and even came out late on a Sunday night to help investigate a leak I had. I won't hesitate to contact John for any jobs I need doing, can't thank him enough.”
“I was looking for a handyman that could do a simple fix in replacing a shower seal and skirting board. John was plain fantastic. He contacted me about the job and made sure he thoroughly understood what was required as well as asking any questions. He explained how he was going to do the job and was clear on any charges. He arrived and finished the job within an hour with no fuss and was very reasonable with his pricing. I will be using him again and thoroughly recommend him to others.”

Verified by CheckatradeRadiator Removed
I've been using Candofix for all my plumbing needs (and emergencies) for over 2 years now. I cannot recommend John and his team highly enough. Courteous, punctual, great value, tidy and trustworthy. The recent radiator removal was a good example of John's experienced approach, instead of just ripping it off - he carefully drained it to minimise any extra water damage because he knew there would be lots of extra gunky stuff that always comes out!

Excellent happy happy
Verified by Checkatrade
Candofix have previously done work for me before and I asked John to come over and quote for retiling and installing a fan in my bathroom. He was supposed to come round on 1 june but texted to say he couldn't make and said he would come round on 8 June so I took a day off but he didn't turn up and I haven't heard from him since.

Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 12 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
