Washing line poles erected I Was told he would be at my house 08.30hrs and true to his word he arrived on time. It wasn't a big job they just got on with it and were done in just over half an hour. I am delighted and would certainly use him again, and would recommend his service. Thank you very much.

Drilling fixtures to hang frames Julian was absolutely fab to hire from start to finish. Always prompt in messaging, turned up on time, was friendly and quick/tidy with the job. Don't listen to some awkward people on here that have given bad reviews. Julian is a great person to hire and is very reasonable with his prices. Would hire again at any time with zero hesitation. Cheers J. (Updated on 21 Jul 2025)

Answer from tradesperson:

Laminate floor fitting I spoke to him on 31st October snd he said he would be able to do the from the 20th November. He then decided to cancel last minute a day before. Completely unprofessional and a waste of time. Usually I would never leave a bad review however I don’t want anyone else making the same mistake. Answer from tradesperson: August this year I gave you a quote for you work to be done, 3 weeks ago you was pressurising myself to do the work when you wanted it to be done straightaway,I was messaging you directly and it would take you 1/2 days for you to answer me,So why since August, 3 weeks ago you decided to contact myself,I find that strange and also you only hired myself today on My Builder App to leave a bad review I also find that strange.

Kitchen refurbishment and fitting WARNING- What a waste of space this man lied for 6 weeks and my wife and I are disabled pensioners left high and dry at 11th hour on day he agreed to start work when all deliveries for fitted kitchen had been ordered and delivered. Had text night before saying he would be there at 9am and he never even let us know only when I contacted him. Have all txt to prove this. LEAVE WELL ALONE !! ******
