I've just had Oddbods Handy Services (Iain and Paul) come and sort out some fiddly repair work to a water tank cupboard in our house. They were punctual, professional in their approach, courteous and tidy upon finishing the job. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a handyman and peace of mind knowing they will do a good job. Thanks guys.

A belated recommendation for Iain and Paul od Oddbods who came to help me with various jobs before Christmas.  Painting ceiling, renewing silicone around bath, repairing a window sill which was almost beyond repair and hanging a large mirror.  

Very happy with their work and they are friendly and very reliable and excellent at communicating.  No hesitation in recommending them.

Hi MGK

A very Happy New Year and thank you for your lovely recommendation! We were happy to help.

HNY also to all of our fab customers in 2025!

Another recommendation for Iain and Paul at Oddbods. They have installed a shed base and built a new shed for me as well as removing an old boiler cupboard. I am very pleased with their work and they are also very efficient, friendly and excellent with their communication. I had an issue with the date of the shed delivery and Iain kindly moved his jobs around so it could be completed before Christmas. I have already asked them to quote for another job so would definitely recommend Oddbods!

    • I was lucky that I received a student grant from 1990-1995 first 3 years for degree and 2 years post graduate bursary. Both were based on my income and I did not have to pay back. Eldest daughter got student loan and after 20 years managed to pay it off, Youngest daughter still paying hers 18 years later. Granddaughter - still paying after 6 years. Grandson decided against FE and secured an apprentenship. I am glad that I am an old codger and not young anymore !

    • It is not only Southwark - our grandson, partner and 7 year old had a one bed council flat for years in Harlow Essex and all the properties offered were in poor condition. They eventually took a property as if they refused another one they would drop to the bottom of the Housing List. It was damp and in need of a level of renovation. Having lived in these conditions for a while they were offered better council accommodation recently, but further away from child's school. They had to pay 2 lots of rent for a few weeks as council had to undertake work in the new premises before they could move in,
    • Just had an interior decorating job done by Andy. The final outcome looks lovely and he did some remedial work at the same time to fill in gaps in the ceiling (due to previous electrical work) and to remediate any similar areas to ensure a polished overall look. Would highly recommend him for any similar job, he quoted a very reasonable price for the job as well. Thanks Andy!
