I will use Skilled Handyman never again. I would expect people of their trade to come in a van with basic tools and fixings present, and only in exceptional cases leaving to buy something. The guy did... See more

This was the worst service ever! I never thought it could have been so expensive and difficult to replace a simple socket. Firstly, we had to book 5 times, because they kept forgetting to confirm... See more

Professional, great finish

I must say I am always apprehensive allowing others into my home, however Skilled Handyman has restored my faith!

Really lovely and polite staff and my floors look amazing. Was finished so quickly that it didn't cause any inconvenience.

Will definitely be using Skilled handyman in the future and recommending to others.

Everything you need in one place.

Great easy experience I called one number spoke to a very knowledgeable lady who carefully arranged for the work in my house and garden to be carried out on the same day as my time is very limited with renovating my property and working. They provide an honest and upfront service. Will definitely be a returning customer.

All your handyman needs in one place

It's very difficult to get jobs done around here. Just as soon as you find someone who does handyman-type jobs they seem to want to go off and do bigger jobs elsewhere. You can spend ages ringing round just trying to find someone who'll do a simple job. But no matter what sort of job you need doing you can ring up Skilled Handyman and they can get someone out to do the job for you really soon - and they advise you to have some smaller jobs lined up too just in case the handyman finishes early. And we've had no problems whatsoever with the quality of any of the work done. We really appreciate the work they've done for us.

Excellent service

I was completely satisfied with Skilled Handyman and will be using them again and recommending them to friends and family. A fantastic, professional service and no time wasted in getting the job done and keeping me informed of any potential problems. Definitely a five star company.

Professional and courteous

Very pleased with the work carried out by Skilled Handyman. We had a fairly straightforward carpentry task to remove the spindles and repair the mouldings on our staircase in preparation for glass ballustrades. Julio was polite, helpful and honest, as you would expect of a tradesman. Did a great job with minimum fuss, and left the place clean and tidy after he had finished.
I would not hesitate to call on their services again, as they are a no nonsense company that know their stuff.
To use up the hour on the first visit, I asked him to look at our guttering, which was leaking, and also a fence panel that had been damaged in high winds. None of these jobs are particularly big, but where else can you find someone willing to do all of these things.

Excellent service from the moment I made an enquiry to when I paid for the job. Seamless and stress free, the job was done to the standard I expected. Customer service was faultless and the handyman was very polite and worked hard.
