Rating: 5 / 5

Can’t recommend George enough! He worked through a list of jobs on the first visit from blinds to my garden gate and then he built the most awesome media wall for me in less than 2 days finished and painted whilst fitting in other little jobs. He is unfazed by any jobs and is awesome at woodwork. Professional and friendly I highly recommend him!

Fabulous service! Rang George and within a couple of hours of the initial call, we had 4 wall-hanging bike racks installed. Really good quality craftsmanship too.

We were thrilled with the work of George The Handyman. We have already had him return to do more jobs around our home. George helped us with a broad range of tasks, including fixing door handles, hanging mirrors, installing floating oak shelves, redoing bathroom silicone, attaching child-safe furniture straps, installing a water butt and wallpapering, as well as building us bespoke made-to-measure shelves in our lounge, plus much more! George was easy to communicate with, punctual, very organised and tidy. He worked through our list of jobs efficiently while discussing everything with us to ensure we were happy with the finished result. We also really appreciated his transparent pricing. George is an incredibly hard worker, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Ive been using George for years to do pretty much everything and anything to do with both our home and our Commercial property. Nothings ever to much trouble for George and all done with a smile in his face. The quality of his work is unquestionable and its a pleasure to recommend him. 😎

Moved house 7 weeks ago and had a long list of things to get done from shelves in the kitchen/utility, a shed to build, a garden office to finish and so on. Trevor is working his way through the list and everything is done to a high standard. He has such a broad range of skills, never over commits and is reliable. He is also a very decent guy. Recommend him highly for a wide range of jobs.

Trevor provides a fantastic service. He is very professional, but also friendly, which is important when you've go someone in your house. He came and put in 3 shelves in my airing cupboard, fitted around my water tank and he did a great job. Wasn't sure I would be able to get 3 shelves, but he managed it and they look awesome. I would recommend Trevor to anyone needing some handyman work done in their house. Will be using him again for more work for sure! Thanks Trevor

What a nice knowlegable guy. Trevor came at short notice and fitted a floating console unit, hung a picture and levelled off some seriously off level cupboard doors. I could not be more pleased with what he did, the way he works and how respectfully he treated my property. Highly recommended.

Trevor advertises as a handyman, but he is much more than that. He is a precision handyman. He always plans his work carefully, and then executes that plan with great accuracy. He has done 5 jobs for us now, the latest was the complete installation of a kitchen. The kitchen was from a mid-range supplier, Wren, but thanks to Trevor's attention to detail it looks like a kitchen that would have cost twice the price.

The first time we have engaged Andy and we are very very impressed. He communicated with us throughout , chased around to get the appropriate materials , turned up when he said he would and did an absolutely excellent and efficient job at a very reasonable price. All in a very friendly manner. We would have no hesitation in using Andy in the future and would give him our highest recommendation.

Andy replaced the roof and insulated our summer house. He also put up curtain rails, clothes hangers, and paintings in our house. Andy was 100% professional, skilled, and friendly throughout the job. He was incredibly fair with his pricing and clear on how long the job would take and therefore how much it would cost us. Andy is a delight to work with and we can’t wait to work with him again. Thank you Andy, fantastic service.

Andy was brilliant. Friendly and knowledgeable, he went out of his way to fix my dripping tap and then when my bathroom sprung a leak, he got that sorted quickly too. Great value, highly recommended 👍🏻

I can’t even rate Andy because he is that AMAZING! He did such a wonderful job building my cupboard and was so kind. I highly recommend Andy to anyone that needs things done well!

Paul Martin has completed many jobs for us throughout 2017/18. From fitting a kitchen, putting a new doorway in to plastering our lounge, hallway, stairs and landing. He is always prompt and attentive and works methodically and is very tidy. We can highly recommend Housemartin Property Refurbishment and look forward to using you again in the very near future.

I have had Paul carry out a couple of large bathroom renovations for me. He managed the jobs from start to finish saving me time and hassle in getting different trades in. His workmanship was fantastic and I can’t recommend him enough. Next job the kitchen. Cheers Paul👍

Pete is a lovely guy, very friendly and genuine. Another company tried to charge me to re-tune my tv and made out it was a 'big job'. Pete took a look and said it was just a simple re-tune, fixed in minutes. I would highly recommend using him and won't hesitate to contact him again for future work. Thanks!!

Rating: 5 / 5

I initially employed Pete for some painting after sacking off rubbish tradesmen before him! He is easily the best in terms of workmanship I have seen. He’s a nice guy, turns up when he says and is reasonably priced. Since, he has done WiFi and camera installations and to be honest I’d always ask Pete in future if he could do a job before considering anyone else!

Rating: 5 / 5

Pete is fantastic, very professional and super friendly! He did a fantastic job of fitting our breakfast bar in our kitchen. He arrived on time, was really reasonable and did such a beautiful job. Would recommend him for anything and will be using his services again in the future! Don't hesitate to contact handyman Hardy for anything 😊

Pete has now done two painting and decorating jobs for us and also TV install and mounting. He is fast, efficient, friendly and tidy and cares about the details. I don't think there is anything he can't turn his hand to! I recommend him highly.

Chris and the entire team were polite, on-time and very tidy. Chris has detailed experience in many aspects of build and supported our understanding during the various stages of our extension. Chris was able to explain from the very beginning, what will be required by whom and when. Chris managed the project and liaised with all trades including the Planning Team at the council so we didn't have to worry about any of that! Chris has a friendly and experienced team, the most noticeable trait is that they are very tidy, which is especially important when you have a digger, skips and materials being delivered daily. I would recommend CLBS to anyone (have done already!). Should anyone wishing to see a completed project and would like to see (first hand) what's been completed, please liaise with Chris and Kate who can pass on our details. A special note for Kate, who we found was very helpful in answering many texts over the 3 months for general questions. This was helpful and efficient.

Repointing of ‘crazy paved’ patio. Hard and a bit thankless job. Completion took them longer than anticipated but workers on site every day and decent men to have around. Good admin, stood by quotation, very prompt email responses. Absolutely no complaints. Many thanks Chris. No hesitation in recommending.

Rating: 5 / 5

Chris and his team arrived as expected and quickly got on with the job. Very polite and efficient, the job was a messy one but they worked cleanly and respected my property. The standard of the work was excellent and completed much quicker than I expected, site was cleared and left as tidy as possible. All works were carried out at an affordable price, I thoroughly recommend CLBS builders Ltd.

Had to get a quotation done for a property we were buying, after the survey picked up on a few issues. Chris and his wife Kate were very helpful, excellent communication and great advice from Chris after he had been to the property. Chris was recommended to us and I thoroughly recommend him.

Rating: 5 / 5

We needed various jobs done around our home as we were preparing to move out: replacing a hob top, fixing a dent in a door, replacing curtain fixtures, rebuilding drawers, etc. All of the work was done to an excellent standard, done quickly and professionally, and we couldn't be more pleased. We are definitely calling again for our new home because we feel safe and comfortable that the job will be done right!

Very reliable and friendly, I appreciated the ease handling the booking process over WhatsApp. Both jobs were completed quickly and efficiently, and as a result the final invoice was less than quoted. That’s something. I definitely recommend Ellis and his team!

Rating: 5 / 5

I'm very impressed with my dealings with this business and the work carried out in my bathroom to address mould and paint issues, which went above and beyond what I'd expected. Pleasant, punctual and professional. I'd been let down in the past and also work by previous contractors needed to be corrected. Happy to recommend and consider for future work.

Amazing work done by Toby today very friendly guy, fitted in shelves neatly. Very reliable. Communication has been great with Ellis from when i requested quotations. I highly recommend them.

Rating: 5 / 5

Great experience working with Ellis. He has a "can do" approach, he charges fairly and he won't leave you with an unfinished job to figure out yourself. Great timekeeping, he cleans up any mess before he leaves and he is good at what he does. Very easy to work with and you can be confident the job will get done with a good finish.

Ellis came to ours to put up a shed and put in some lights on our high ceilings. He came exactly when he said he would, worked quickly, keeping us updated with progress, and did a great job. His price was entirely fair. We would highly recommend his services. Thanks Ellis!

I've used Ellis and co for various odd jobs over the last couple of years. From advising on ventilation issues in my loft and looking at leaks on my conservatory , to hanging pictures , no job is too big or small. Jobs finished to a good quality and prices are competitive. Reliable service with a can do attitude. Would recommend:-)

Rating: 5 / 5

What a fantastic service, would highly recommend. Ellis supplied and fitted a new side gate, of excellent quality and dug out an old manhole cover and surround, then cemented in a new surround, filling in holes found when digging out the old one. Ellis is a very personable, efficient workman with good honest communication and time keeping.

Martin and the lads were fantastic, kept us informed every step of the way from the door and window arriving, being delivered to our house and being fitted. Workmanship was top level and the finish is superb. We are really pleased with the end result and Martin and the team have done a brilliant job, wouldn’t think twice about having them back for another job.

Rating: 5 / 5

We had a great experience with Martin and his team with our kitchen renovation. Always very communicative and helpful. We will definitely use them again for any future projects! Thank you Martin

Martin and his team worked on conversion of a garage into an en-suite bedroom with extension. He kindly added a few more jobs that we asked him to do and built an outdoor building with storage to replace our old shed. It was a big project and we highly recommend Mart, he’s very hardworking and friendly.

Martin and his team help to make your drawings and home dreams become reality, providing valuable guidance and input based on years of knowledge and experience. Communication lanes are kept actively open even when (as we know happens in any building job) the news isn't exactly what you want to hear. Martin works with you and always seems totally invested in delivering 'your build'. We now have a great airy and open useable living space. Many thanks Martin and team
