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

    • Yes, they thanked me for pointing out the errors of their ways and agreed never to do it again.  Or maybe not.  There was also two scenes when I asked drivers to turn their engines off when sitting idling by Peckham Rye.  I wont recount the tale but they did not appreciate my request.  I've long since given up.  My experience was similar to Nigel Havers, "go forth and multiply". https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p04qrnh6 I also used to fantasise about putting a potato in the exhaust.  Gone are the days when you could kill the occupants through carbon monoxide poisoning as the levels are relatively low.  Not oxides of nitrogen though.   
    • Hi everyone, We’re currently looking to upgrade our front door and are leaning towards something with a Victorian style to suit our home in South East London. While doing some research, I came across Victorian Front Door Company (https://www.victorianfrontdoor.co.uk), and their doors look absolutely stunning. Has anyone here used their services before? If so, I’d love to hear about your experience! How was the process, and are you happy with the final result? Looking forward to any insights or other recommendations for suppliers in the area. Thanks in advance! 😊
    • I saw couple of people in hi-vis jackets, hard hats putting a ladder up against the sign on my way out early evening 9th October. On my way back I looked at the sign and (it took me a few seconds!) spotted the change.
    • Our Australian friend wants to use google maps on his Ozzie iphone in London without using up his international data - I’m sure some of you can advise how he can do this ( before tomorrow morning?!)   thanks
