What level of service should I expect from a handyman near me?

A local handyman should provide a clear estimate before starting any work, bring the tools and materials needed for the job, and complete tasks efficiently while maintaining a tidy workspace. They should leave your home in good order with repairs or installations finished to a high standard.

Should I ask to see examples of a handyman’s previous work?

Yes. It’s helpful to see photos of past projects such as furniture assembly, wall mounting, or home repairs to get a sense of their workmanship. Many handymen show examples of completed jobs on their MyBuilder profiles to give you confidence in the results.

What types of jobs can a handyman help with?

Local handymen often take on a wide range of domestic tasks, including putting up shelves, mounting TVs, assembling flat-pack furniture, fixing doors or locks, and completing small painting or maintenance jobs. If you’re unsure, describe your project when posting your job. Many handymen can handle multiple types of work.

How should I prepare before a handyman arrives?

Clear the space where the work will take place and make sure any fixtures or items that might get in the way are moved. If materials or fittings are required, confirm whether you or the handyman will supply them beforehand to avoid delays.

What should I check before hiring a handyman?

Before choosing handyman services near you, review profile information on MyBuilder, including job history and feedback from other customers. Make sure to confirm details like cost, duration, and what’s included in the service to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Matt and Ashleigh have helped us out massively since we started using them as a contractor for our large portfolio of rental properties in the Stoke on Trent, and wider ‘Staffs’ areas. Harrisons Property Services came as a recommendation when we posted a Facebook search looking for additional tradespeople in the area. Since we first contacted them, they have been fab! Communication with us by calls, text and emails has been great. But also the same for our tenants, keeping everyone ‘in the loop’ at all times. Always glowing reviews from our tenants about Matt and Ashleigh, and the tenants tell me how much better things are operating recently, with contractors turning up when agreed, and the communication, professionalism, cleanliness and quality of workmanship being at a much higher standard. If there’s a job they can’t do, they’ll know someone who can, so my job as a landlord is ten times easier because it’s just one phone call. Furthermore, we are now finding the cause of issues, rather than masking them up. When it comes to pricing, Harrisons are upfront, honest and very reasonable. All prices are provided upfront for authorisation before any works commence. Anything extra, they always seek authorisation so there’s no nasty surprises. In just a few months, our professional working relationship has grown stronger and stronger, to the point I would consider Matthew and Ashleigh friends who have our businesses best interests at heart. I have had to call them out of hours once and felt terrible for doing so, but it really wasn’t an issue for them. With all of the above considered, I can’t recommend them enough! Should anybody require any further information or photographic evidence of the works they have carried out, I’d be more than happy for them to contact me.

Handyman- 26 May 2023
Would highly recommend. The job was quite difficult to complete and I had been advised by another joiner that the chair would need to be taken to a specialist furniture person. Youseff came and quoted for the job anyway despite this and took the chair away and completely fixed the broken leg within days. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish & communication was excellent. Thank you

Theron always wants to make sure you are happy with the work and will ask you throughout the process. If you're a novice also like me he will also make recommendations and help you to stay within budget. He completes the work within the expected time and the standard is great. Very reliable also and a strong handyman who can do various jobs. Just ask and he will let you know if it's possible.
