Al's team were brilliant. They came to fit a cat flap through an external wall. It was a bit more complicated than we'd expected but Dave worked very hard to get the job done. They came back three times in the end, all on time and very politely and made me feel at ease. Al is always on hand to ask questions too. All in all, I'm a happy customer. Very good value for money too!
Very pleased with the job that Al's men have just completed for us. Dave and Zibby are conscientious, industrious and produce finished work of a very high standard. They are also very positive amenable and pleasant to deal with. Hope to use them again very soon.

In resolving what seems like a never-ending list of repairs (discovering the joys of home-owning!), would recommend Al's new handyman service. He returned my call the same day, came round the next with one of his team and did a whole list of jobs including door repairs, carpentry and repairing holes in the walls. Good, helpful and responsive and jobs that we have already tried and failed at seem to take no time at all. They will definitely be back here for the next "to do" items.

Can thoroughly receommend Al and his expert handymen Dave and Zibby who have recently completed quite a large list of work in my house, namely:


the removal and reinstallation of drylining in my dining room

some replastering work

external repointing

replacing some cracked hip tiles

installation of flashing above my bay window

assembly of IKEA wardrobe, including removal of skirting and picture rail


All of the above has been completed with the minimum of fuss to an absolutely first class standard. Any problems encountered were met head on with a positive, can-do approach and communication throughout has been exemplary. Delighted with the results.

I am very happy to add my endorsement of Handy Al and his team following the fast and friendly service we have just received during a very stressful house move. Al provided constant updates and reassurance via email, and clearly prioritises customer satisfaction, which is rare and extremely welcome!

I join in for this feedback!

I called only yesterday for a small job, and Al was able to send Dave immediately this morning.

He was punctual and professional and assembled a kitchen cabinet very quickly, perfectly on time for me to go to work.

Will definitely use this company again, very reliable and reasonably priced.

I'd also like to add my recommendation for Al's service. I had an issue with damp getting into my back bedroom, and after some investigation, one of Al's guys was able to do some re-pointing, replace a couple of bricks and seal it all. All done efficiently and for a good price.

Rang on thursday and asked about having some bedroom blinds fitted. Al sent somebody round at lunch time the following day. The blinds were fitted in under an hour and to a very professional standard and at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend and will be using Al's services again if I ever need anything doing around the house. If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy company then look no further.
Same. Al sent someone out within 24 hours. He was polite, efficient and knowledgeable. He put up ikea wall units in the kitchen, a magazine rack on the toilet wall, coat hooks plus an assortment of pictures all within a reasonable amount of time, and for a decent price. Very happy and would use again, and recommend.
Hi ydrmdy - sorry only just saw your message. Without wanting to do myself out of work, to be honest I would normally recommend that for floor sanding you use someone who is doing this job day in / day out as in my experience the finish tends to be slightly more perfect. I think there are other threads on the forum or specialist floor sanders?
Just want to add another recommendation for Al. He did a fab job putting in a concrete base for my bike shed and fitting together a VERY complicated heavy metal shed. All done on time and on budget. It was also a job that other handymen would not do for me so very pleased with the job he did! Thanks Liz

We have been delighted with Al's service and communication. Zibi has done a fabulous highly-skilled job renovating our bathroom completing the following tasks with minimal fuss and little disruption/ mess:


- replacing and plumbing in new toilet and sink

- levelling floor with concrete

- tiling floor

- mosaic wall tiling

- 'boxing in' pipes round the walls

- creating a bespoke under sink cabinet with shelf

Recommend highly to others! Thanks

    • Denmark Hill to Clapham Junction then pick up the 345 from Falcon Road ( exit Clapham Junction Station from the back entrance) The overground will terminate on platform one anyway so you're already on that side of the station. The 345 bit should take you approximately 30 minutes and the overground from Denmark Hill to CJ approximately 15 minutes. All the best!!
    • I would go to Victoria (185 bus or Southern Rail) then get either a bus from there to Chelsea Town hall (I think it may be the C1 but I'm not sure..I moved from that area over 25 years ago) and the Royal Marsden is a short walk from there. OR get a Underground from Victoria to Sloane square and a Taxi from there to Royal Marsden..It would'nt cost much because its a few mins away..or a bus from Sloane Square to Chelsea Town Hall or Fulham Rd/Sydney St 
    • I don't know how the law works, nor what rules cover what doctors can and can't say in their professional and private (?personal?) capacities,  but on the face of it I agree that some of the comments quoted are unacceptable, to say the least. However, in the context of the subject of this thread,  I think it is important to differentiate between antisemitism ("hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people") and hostility to  the Israeli government's apparent attempted genocide of Palestinian civilians in retribution for the appalling attack on Israeli civilians by Hamas. I might be completely wrong here, and naive, and I am sure someone will correct me if I am, but it seems to me to be as if the English government had started trying to annihilate the whole of the  Irish population because of the IRA bombings in the nineties. I also realise that there is a whole historic background to the Palestine/Israel thing, but I am not familiar with it. Anyway, I and everyone I know who has taken part in any of the recent marches has done so to try to get our government to stop supporting genocide, not because they are antisemitic. And yes there are other awful things going on in the world, and always have been. I can't fight all of them. One of my brothers has taken in three generations of  a Ukrainian family. ETA: Do you really think it is OK to refer to people as "blacks"? Or am I wrong about that as well, and there is some reason why it is acceptable?
