We’d like to say a big thank you to John for all the effort he has put into helping us at the nursery. He has made a real difference, and thanks to his hard work, the overall look of the nursery has improved so much. We especially appreciate the patience he has shown with everything we’ve asked of him, including the ever-growing list of jobs. Nothing has ever been too much trouble, and he has taken it all in his stride. We’re very grateful for all that John has done for us.
Johnny is an experienced handyman with good problem solving and creativity. We had a kitchen utility space fitted and a new back door where the dimensions weren't easy.
What an amazing service and positive experience - thank you John. We were desperate for a Handyman service as we wanted to finish of some jobs before next week. Our time is unhealthily scarce so needed reliability. We called on friday, job done by saturday. John was extremely professional, competent and punctual and we appreciated the communication along the way. After the job was done, we briefly chatted causally, John is a friendly and down to earth guy. John, you are on speed dial for anything we need in future. Thank you from 2 grateful customers. Services: shelf installation, TV mounted on wall and cable trace for concieled power leads within drywall. Advice and guidance on other potential issues.
John has done a couple of small maintenance jobs for me. Arrived on time, keeps you informed and does a professional job. Would recommend him
John did a lovely job sanding down and oiling some doors and outdoor furniture for us. Very thorough job, it looks lovely. John was easy to communicate with and came back to me quickly via e-mail when needed.
John was quick efficient and friendly. Very affordable pricing including bespoke item that he ordered to do the job. Now I have a cat flap fitted at the back door I just have to teach the furry little fellas to use it 😁 John will be my go to guy for all the home improvement jobs that I need to be done👍
I was struggling to find a joiner or carpenter who was willing to take on my little project, John came recommended on a village facebook group. Service was great from start to finish, responsive to emails, prompt quote, scheduled the job in the same week. Arrived on time, did an absolute sterling job on reducing the size of our coffee table, and he tidied Ip after himself (always a sign of a good tradesperson)! I would highly recommend Ahandyman Reading, and would undoubtedly use his services again.
John was a brilliant help with lots of jobs when we had just moved house. Really personable, tidy and a great helpful attitude. Will definitely be calling him again!
John is polite, professional and helpful. I would definitely call him again.
Friendly, professional, no fuss, no mess and good job done. Will use again.
I contacted John to quote, for re-felting of my pergola roof. Once John looked at the job, he found that below the felt, the roofing wood was severely disintegrated, and needed replacing too. I agreed this could go ahead, and straightaway John was down at a well known DIY store to purchase new quality roof wood. Without hesitation, John got straight to work on all that was required, and I'm so grateful to him for his professionalism, know-how attitude, and solid work ethic.
During a period of convalescence I needed my lawns cut just once. John did a good job - better than I've ever done - at a sensible price. I would use him again.
I hired John to fix a couple of doors and hinges, a loft hatch, child stair gate and a banister. All completed on time and within budget quoted. He left everything tidy afterwords and explained how the new loft hatch works. Thank you John for excellent work!
We're so happy to have found John. He helped us out very quickly in an emergency where some ceiling had collapsed. He was a pleasure to deal with and did such a fantastic and clean job. A really nice guy too. We thoroughly recommend him and will be using him in the future.
It's a pleasure to work with John. He has completed a lot of jobs for us including putting up curtain polls, blinds, cabinets and shelves. Professional, quick and always communicates well with us before a booking. We would highly recommend.
John is excellent. He helped us install kitchen cabinets on our plasterboard wall. He is super responsive to messages and its very polite to talk to. He arrived promptly, did the job, and also cleaned up after him. Will certainly recommend :)
John fitted laminate flooring in my living/ lounge & kitchen. He also helped by taking on other jobs/repairs around the house which needed attention and offered great general advice. I found his work to be clean, of high standard and very punctual. I would highly recommend him.
