Fantastic service! Friendly, reliable and high quality workmanship. We had a TV bracket that needed putting up and found Will via Google. It was super easy to get booked in and Will was very helpful and flexible when needed. The work itself was done quickly, thoroughly and professionally and our TV is looking great! Definitely worth the money. Thanks Will!

Highly recommend! Great communication, punctual, friendly, professional. Did everything I asked to a high standard - and went above and beyond by making helpful recommendations (the best place to hang a large mirror; how best to arrange garage storage). Thank you!August 2022 update - Still 5/5! Can’t recommend Will’s efficiency and professionalism enough!

Rarely do you find such a high skill level in such a broad spectrum of trades! Along with a transparent honesty that is refreshing. I can’t recommend Will enough- I’m not sure that ‘odd job man’ does his business the justice it deserves. It is fabulous to see a business run with such high, old school standards.

So, so impressed with the service I have received. Professional and straight forward booking system, reminders and confirmation emails/texts along the way and a comprehensive quote. Will was friendly and professional at all times, discussed the work as he went along where necessary and didn’t waste any time getting the job done. Fantastic quality to the work completed - will definitely use his services again.

Will turned up on time, was courteous, considerate of my health condition and did an excellent, professional job. The double roller blind he installed for us looks perfect - any attempt by me would never look like this!He works very quietly, methodically and accurately. He left the place very tidy and seemed to make no mess at all. We would certainly welcome him to work on other things in the future.Thanks Will!

Will is very reliable and did an excellent job. Particularly appreciated how he expressed views about where to hang pictures, fix brackets and complete other jobs - in each case better than anything we originally had in mind. Was quick and efficient and cleaned away any dust etc - did an excellent job and would definitely ask for his help again.

Will was very responsive to our needs. He came and quoted and did the job on time and as quoted. Excellent quality work and very knowledgeable and professional. No hesitation to recommend. He fixed two doors, painted some brickwork around a fireplace and re-siliconed our bath all to a very high standard as well as cleaning up as he went.

I used the services of Surrey Hills Handyman last month to fit some skirting and re-plaster a section of a wall that had blown. Will was very professional and courteous, arrived on time and communicated throughout. His work is of great quality and he is obviously a very experienced and talented man, I would not hesitate to use his services again and would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs this service. Five Star!!

Will has done a few days work for us over the past couple of months since we moved down to Surrey. He was highly recommended to us and I have to say we have not been disappointed. He works calmly and expertly at all that he does and cleans up with care and concern for peoples' property.. He has undertaken a wide variety of jobs for us including putting up new cupboards, mending locks on doors, fitting a loft ladder, removing some old fitted wardrobes, mending a fence post and ensuring a garden gate is fixed properly to it. We are having him back again soon to replace all the doors in the downstairs of our house. He can turn his hand to most things.

Will came to install some blinds and curtain rods for me and did a fantastic job. The quality of work was excellent and he was extremely careful and tidy while working. I received a quote very quickly and once confirmed the work was booked in immediately. Very professional and will be using his services again. Thank you!

Will’s experience and professionalism has once again helped us to realise the next step of our plans to decorate our home. Punctual, knowledgeable and extremely skilled, he did a fantastic job of painting our living room and mounting a credenza and tv to the wall. It looks brilliant and we will be using Will for the next stages in our project.

Will is very professional, extremely friendly, reliable and did an excellent job - we have just moved in to our new home and he was kind enough to fit us in very soon to help us with fitting our handrail, mirrors, pictures etc and make the house feel more like a home already!We will be asking Will to come back for sure as there are more things to do be done - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Will and it is reassuring to know there is someone like him who you can trust and rely on, to help with things :-)

Will fitted a few doors and boxing in around some pipework in a small WC. He clearly has a lot of experience working in people’s homes, lots of protection of floors and any material/ tools cleaned up every night. Quality of the work was great too. We couldn’t be happier!
Jon Richards

Will did a great job of installing a blind - he came on time, carried out the job perfectly and left the area nice and clean. Highly recommended for all those jobs where you don't have the skills, tools or time (all three in my case!).

We are delighted with our new cupboards and shelves. Will was punctual, professional, open and honest throughout and thoroughly understanding of our needs to maintain a functioning household with two young children around. He was very tidy being meticulous in his clearing-up after himself each day of the job. The finished result is excellent. Soon after he finished we realised we needed a change to the position of power cables and he returned, without quibble, to sort it for us. We will definitely be asking him to return to do some more work for us.

Will came recommended by two of our neighbours to help with some finishing touches at home. From bathroom fittings and hanging heavy items, to loft ladders and tiling - we have been very happy with all of his work. Will is professional, courteous and works to a very high standard. We can always trust his opinion with more challenging decisions, and we can wholeheartedly recommend him.

Will has just fitted a cat flap for us in an awkward door and has done a fantastic job. He investigated the door that we had and found that it was possible and made an appointment for us in the new year. He double checked with me this morning that all was ok at to check the correct address and all was done in just over an hour and all mess cleared away. Thank you Will, I will recommend to you all my friends

Will has done an absolutely phenomenal work for me including taking down an old shed, putting up a new fence in very difficult terrain, new shelves in various rooms, replacing a lock and more all in a very short timeframe. As many other posters have mentioned he is extremely friendly, helpful and knows exactly what he is doing. Another important attribute for me is that he left the house and garden in immaculate condition which is particularly important for me given I have a toddler.
If I was Will I would coin Ronseal as he really does do exactly what he says!
Thanks Will, we will certainly look to hire you again.
