Thank you James for getting me out of a little plumbing issue quickly & professionally. It’s great to have someone reliable & local I can now count on when things go tits up. Friendly service, honest advice and everything sorted without too much hassle. I’d recommend to friends.

Highly recommended

James has carried out several jobs for us, including bathroom tiling and shower replacement and exterior cladding replacement. He is consistently reliable, professional and has always carried out fantastic, high quality work with clear communication and transparent pricing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fabuliser.

Fabulous new kitchen and bathroom

James and his team have done an amazing job installing my new kitchen and bathroom. Fabuliser delivered a wonderful renovation with skill, creativity and integrity - ensuring that it lives up to its name!

I have no hesitation in calling upon them again when the time comes for the next renovation project on my home, and recommending Fabuliser to others.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended! James and his team have tackled my odd renovation project with great professionalism and provided expert advice where the old Victorian building made some of my initial ideas hard to implement. All in all great experience from start to finish.

Highly recommended

James and his amazing talented team turned an ugly sloping section of our garden into a beautiful, functional wet/utility room extension. From my initial Idea to the final touches, I was listened to and involved in the process. James organised everything and kept me informed at all times. My husband and I have mobility issues and now our home is future proofed. James had already updated our family bathroom and I will not hesitate to go to him again for my next project.

James came and made some really great suggestions for my flat.
I got him to fix a few things and he transformed my balcony.
He did a great job and I would use him again

Friendly, helpful; constructive advice

James has done a number of jobs for us, and is always friendly and helpful. Works include adding ventilation to a garden office (his advice understood the aesthetics as well as the practical needs), and hanging a garden gate in an awkward space. He is about to remove a redundant wood-burner flue and to make good the affected areas of the ceiling (slats of pine) and walls (exposed breeze blocks).

Various works in a rental property


James carried out a variety of works for me at a rental property in West Norwood, most notably correcting some previously poor workmanship—particularly with the bathroom tiling and external windows, which now both look great. He also fitted kitchen units neatly against uneven walls and offered considered suggestions when I asked about improving the property layout. These ideas were implemented, and the property is now much improved. His prices were reasonable, and I found him personable, reliable, and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him.

A Perfectly Executed Hallway Renovation

James transformed my hallway by removing a wall and building a new side for the stairs, complete with bannisters and clever storage. His creativity, practicality, and exceptional attention to detail truly stood out throughout the project. The work was completed with minimal disruption, and the site was kept tidy, with rubbish cleared promptly and efficiently.

James is a pleasure to work with—polite, friendly, and highly communicative from start to finish. He brought my vision to life perfectly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for any project.

Extremely happy with the service I received.
James did quite a lot of work for me in my flat from laying wooden floors, decorating and fixing my sash windows. His workmanship was excellent. He talked everything through, was punctual and very tidy. I would definitely use him again if I needed any work doing.

Skilled craftsman

We had a study replastered and painted and a small bathroom redone.
James is a skilled craftsman with multiple talents. He has a creative mind and is capable of producing some cool concepts as well as execute them to a high standard. We were generally very happy with the work. He is a nice person as well and we enjoyed getting to know him. Thanks!

I found Fabuliser on a local Facebook page and really happy that I reached out to him to fit a new roof to my pergola. James and his team are very efficient, friendly and experienced and the finished roof in terms of style, quality and detail is perfect.

Thanks so much for fitting so quickly, I can enjoy my garden just that little bit more now :)

Wonderful work and easy to book

I'm so glad to have found James! He's done a number of jobs at my flat now, all of them to an exceptional standard and with such ease to arrange too.

He fixed our outside storage door and fence that was decimated in the storms, has done an incredible job painting the ceiling to completely cover a former repair and lots of other niggly but delicate work too, all immaculate!

Absolutely recommended.

More than a handyman!

Reliable and helpful

James was quick to respond and could fit us in straight away which was great. Pleased with the work he did in our bedroom - fitting skirting board and helping to fit some new sliding doors on a fitted wardrobe. He’s punctual, polite, friendly and cleaned up and left the place tidy which was great!

Beautiful work

We found James on the local Crystal Palace facebook group and I can’t recommend him or his work highly enough. He’s hard working, creative, is a great finisher and is very personable. He undertook a selection of work including brickwork, boarding under our stairs and renovating our horrible pebbledash porch with plaster board cladding that looks like wood when he painted it - it looks stunning. We are so impressed he is doing a second batch of renovation for us this summer.

Retiling bathroom and new shower

Retiling bathroom wall, floor and installing new shower. Excellent quality and there was no problem in fixing any minor snags. I would happily get James in again for any job. Recommended
