Handyman Help for odd jobs

£70

Mariusz communicated prior to the visit and arrived on time. He completed the task (fixing a door that wasn't fitting properly on the hinges) rectifying previous poor work by someone else. During the couple of hours he was there he discussed possible options to fix the door and carried out the work effectively. At the end of the task he tidied up after himself. All in all a very good job.
