Highlights
“Always arrives on time and communicates when due to arrive and leave. Very prompt, very professional. This fence was my 3rd job with MaxiHandy and due to come back in a few months for another job. Very reasonable and always cleans up like they had never been there. They have totally transformed my gardens from what they once were. See you soon Nick.”
“I have been let down so many times by various companies and right from the start Nick messaged me, turned up at the right time and commenced work on the date that he said he would. He and his work colleague have done a brilliant job and the results are beyond my expectations. They have worked so hard and are so professional, my garden, which had lots of components to it, paving, hedging, astro turf, pebbles etc was not simple and it looks sensational. My sister and a friend are so impressed they are going to use Nick for their gardens. He was also so helpful accommodating my budget to do what is an amazing job. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him. Its refreshing to get someone who is professional and is an expert in what they do for a competitive price. He is worth every penny. As soon as I have the funds I will engage Nick to sort out my garden at the back of the house.”
“I cannot commend Nick and Marcus's work highly enough. From start to finish, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism. Their initial communication was prompt, clear, and concise, outlining the budget, timescale, and project progression with transparency. I had to request a few changes to various aspects of the job, which they accommodated with patience and courtesy. They worked tirelessly, with minimal breaks, transforming an overgrown space into a clear and well-prepared blank canvas. The fence they installed was crafted with meticulous attention to detail, achieving a level of quality that reflected their commitment to perfection. I am looking forward to working with them on phase two of the project, and I would highly recommend their services without hesitation.”

Nick is an exceptional tradesman. He always explains everything clearly. Gives you options all the time. His work is diligent throughout and upon completion walks through the job. No snags left behind. Punctual and works hard everyday. Nick focuses on the job in hand and never let's you down. I don't look anywhere else now and Maxihandy are my go to guys. Happy to recommend
I've had work done by Nick and his team twice, including a complete garden remodel and fence rebuild. I'm so pleased with the work and it's completely transformed my garden. I would never have thought my garden could look as good as it does now, but Nick made it all possible and the standard of work was exemplary. Nick was dedicated to making sure the jobs were done well and he is completely reliable, courteous and professional. I would thoroughly recommend Maxihandy.
