Bryer is thoughtful, multi-talented, very personable and didn't seem to blink an eyelid when I altered and added on to the original task. She arrived on-time, assessed the job, confirmed with me she understood what needed doing, and checked in that I was happy with the planned approach to the work. Two wall espalier systems were completed in an efficient and timely manner and to a high standard. Bryer also went above and beyond, visiting Bunnings for us when we couldn't due to lockdown restrictions. I can definitely highly recommend Bryer for any of your home and landscaping projects, she provided excellent service, and on top of that is a very nice person to deal with. I would not hesitate to recommend Bryer's services to anyone.

We have a dent in a wooden bedroom cupboard door. We are looking for assistance to patch this dent as best they can. - thin wood that has being punctured but not all the way through.

Darren did such an excellent job. His communication was clear, honest and trustworthy. I was impressed with the premium standard his set for himself and the quality of work he provides. Where Darren goes above and beyond is his knowledge of rental bond returns and guiding us through that process of how to maximise the full bond return from repair. His friendly demeanor and welcoming nature is the cherry on top.
