Excellent Handyman recommendation

There's already a lot of positive feedback for Victor (aka 007 Handyman) on the forum and I know he has his own thread too, but I thought I'd also put a personal recommendation out there.


The alcove area in our kitchen was pretty grim, it had several layers of paint from the previous occupants that would rub off whenever you tried to clean the area. It just wasn't hygienic or aesthetically pleasing to say the least!

Victor and his son Carl have totally transformed the area for us and it is now a pleasure to cook in! They gave us recommendations on tiles and wipe-clean aluminium sheeting to the top of the area for ease of cleaning. The tiling was finished to a high standard and they also fitted side panels (using off-cuts of wood that we had spare) which are very useful as a guard to stop food falling down and also to rest utensils on. They finished the job off with beading instead of leaving us with bare tile edges.

Quite a transformation as I'm sure you'll agree! :-)


While they were at ours they also repaired our ceiling where the plasterboard was missing, and cleared up all their mess too. All this in one day, very impressed.


We were very pleased with the very professional job at a competitive price and Victor's friendliness, can-do attitude, knowledge and suggestions along the way.


We've used Victor and his sons before and will do so in the future as we continue to be impressed by their work.


Cheers


Tara

    • I completely agree with you . Its as if they have their foot in the door and are just pushing and pushing. It's ridiculous. It's not the right space. they clearly do not give any regard to the environment or they would move it.  
    • There's a great badminton club at the Harris girls academy. It runs Friday from 5.30 to 6.45. for more experienced players, they have sessions on Wednesday and Friday, too but that's subject to skill levels 
    • There seem to be all sorts of blocks for this event being mounted on the Common, one is that it was 'designed especially' for the current site, though the organisers seem to have had absolutely no problem rejigging their plans to the original site footprint to expand the event to what we had last year- which I think really imposed on a large part of the park and spoilt the feel. I would suggest pressing very hard for relocation to the Common ( also closer to transport links). There must be a way, surely? If not, then wholesale relocation to a more suitable venue. I just do not think the park should be subjected to a festival-goer footfall of 60,000 plus over the summer.
    • I absolutely will. Fed up of property developments that are funded from offshore investors and price out local people. Fed up of the demise of social rents and the growing crisis of families in bed and breakfast. Fed up of young people being unable to save deposits, start families and generally have the same security of tenure that previous generations had. So yes, I will drill down into the financing, affordability, where the properties aer being advertised for sale, and how many are genuinely for social rent. Otherwise, no opposition to redeveloping that site in that way.
