Handyman tasks complete well

Tristan helped with a couple of things in my flat: he hanged big mirror, installed curtain rod and fixed the door of the sliding mirror wardrobe. Everything went well. I’d recommend him for these kind of jobs or any other handyman tasks.

Tristan did a great job on my laundry list of repair, maintenance and installation items

I used Tristan for a laundry list of repair, maintenance and installation items for my property. He was quick and easy to book. He responded immediately and was willing and able to fit me in quickly at short notice. He is reliable, tidy and I am pleased with his quality of work. I would definitely hire him again.

Good professional service

Tristan was recommended by a friend. He did several jobs around my house, including putting up shelves in a tricky spot and fixing a broken bathroom door lock. The work was done to a high standard and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. I would recommend this service to others!

I had to get a handyman in to redo his work. If I could take a photo of the way the brackets were put in. The plaster and new paint work is all chipped and messed up. He measured for blinds and gave the wrong measurements. I have to let others know.

SIX stars service

SIX stars service! Exceeded my expectations in every way! Tristan was accommodating enough to attend to my urgent needs who turned up early morning the next day! He was very professional, efficient and creative in solving my carpentry needs. His attention to details is highly commendable! I’ve invited Tristan back next week to help me further with my home reno! I’ve recommended him to my friends and likewise, to everyone here on Google! Many thanks, Tristan!

Tristan is the 3rd handyman I have been using in central London and what a difference compared to the others! Comes in time with proper handyman's van with all the quality tools needed with him (Makita) and does the job with perfection. He might not be the cheapest or the fastest, but the quality is absolutely there. I would trust this guy to build a nuclear reactor!
