Diescu Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Just wanted to add my recommendation to the many others. Aston came to put up my new curtain rail and blinds on Monday. He did a perfect job with the curtain rail but he tactfully pointed out that the blinds I had supplied were a bit too tight for the space. I appreciated that he didn't plough on regardless - his priority was that I be happy with the finished product. I am delighted with his work putting up the curtain rail and am pleased that he will be coming back to fit the blinds. He is professional, punctual, and friendly too.

victorialucy Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Another recommendation for Aston, he was easy to communicate with, reliable, reasonably priced and honest. Plus his work was good. Will definitely be using Aston again!

Ladylulu Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I'd like to add my recommendation to the many above, all well deserved. Aston fixed a broken door for me that had defeated many before him! Good communication, reasonable rates and skilled work.

Larasengupta Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I just hired Aston to fix some broken drawers in my kitchen.

ABC123! Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Just adding my recommendation. Aston did a great job fixing my kitchen units that were on the verge of coming off the wall. He arrived promptly, explained to me what he was doing, tidied up afterwards, etc. Would not hesitate to recommend him.

wjm Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Aston's just finished his second batch of work for us and again, great quality finish, clean, tidy and finished punctually. Another +1!

owen.g Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Yep. Aston came round the day after I contacted him to fit a pulley airer. Excellent man. I'm going to make a list of those things I don't trust myself to do. For this amount of recommendations, I figured he'd be a good bet (considering how hard it is to judge - we've all been bitten by that one!) and he was great.

Mrs C Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I?ve had Aston come round before and was very pleased with his work and approach so booked him again this week. He?s very meticulous, hard working and a pleasure to have in your home. If you are looking for someone who will do a job really well, I?d definitely recommend you contact him!

rosierundell Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I can also confirm that Aston is ace. So nice and helpful and quick. I have used him twice now and each time been entirely happy with the service. He is now our go-to handyman both at my work in Peckham and at home.

Marjoram Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Today Aston worked for me again, this time to remove two very unsightly external gas meter covers which were at least 15 years old and which were hanging off the wall, and to fit new ones (which I had bought online). Due to the condition of the wall, he had to do a lot of adaptations to make them fit, and it turned out to be a very challenging job, but he persevered, stayed cheerful, and came up with solutions. The result is that the new boxes look really good in place, and I am delighted. He also replaced yet more light bulbs in my high ceilings. The versatility in what he can do never ceases to amaze me. I will of course be booking Aston for any future help I need.

akoval Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Another happy customer, I have used Aston services recently and was really impressed with the quality and finishes of his work. Having had bad experiences with tradesmen before, this time I was very happy with the work done, brilliant! He is very nice guy too. Highly recommend.

Groucho-on-the-Rye Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Got Aston off the Forum to fix our front door, which involved rehanging, trimming, sorting out the catch. Very swift and efficient with all his own gear. Two hours, ?80.

Sara S. Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I work full time so it is very difficult for me to be at home during day time. I contacted Aston, but he only works between Monday to Friday. Nevertheless, very efficient in answering my messages. Niko, could work Saturdays, came home to do a quote and never came again. I asked him to come and he kept forgetting me, so I lost 6? in phone calls. I found out Andrew also in the forum and he is amazing. Came last Saturday and fixed 3 doors, installed an oven, changed the bathroom silicone, bleeded the radiators and fixed a kitchen drain. I felt super comfortable with him and always polite. He seems to know a little of everything. Came with the necessary tools and a vacuum to clean after! Highly recommended! His number is 007446280549.

Crokes Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I was very pleased to find Aston through this thread - he fixed a couple of large areas of damp in our kitchen and did a fantastic job.

Richard S Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I have now employed Aston 3-4 times. This time it was to hang a number of pictures.

dulwichquine Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Just used Aston after finding him in the forum. We had a very small job, fixing a kitchen cupboard where the hinges had come off. Desperate to get it done before Xmas. Aston came to the rescue. Quick, efficient and reasonable.

amball Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Hi there, We live in East Dulwich, we are looking for a handyman to fix a new handle onto a door and to remove a bedroom door, and shave it down to a height that is right. We had a new carpet fitted and the door is difficult now to open and close. Do let me know if you are interested but ideally would like to get the job done quite quickly.

ShantiS Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I was very glad to find Aston through the recommendations on here. He's a lovely guy, professional and efficient, and cleaned up very well after himself. He fixed my bed for me and even took off his shoes at my request before coming upstairs as I have just got new carpets. Very reasonable rate, and I will definitely be calling on him again for future jobs. His number is 07490947355.

Sophie176 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 We too would thoroughly recommend Aston. He did an excellent and very careful couple of jobs for us, was a very friendly person to have around the house, good value, and tidied up thoroughly before he left (also voluntarily took his shoes off upstairs). We'd definitely use him again, and would wholeheartedly recommend him.

kazue Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I was so impressed how quick and professional his service is. Aston replied to my first text shortly after and booked me in for the next day. He fixed a few of our wardrobes with many hinges came off. I would definitely contact him again.

Patriciann Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 We have used Aston once so far. He was quick to respond to our initial request, did a first rate job mending a leaking tap, was professional and personable and his charge was reasonable. We shall definitely use him again.
