He was really polite and efficient. Tidied up and gave us a decent price for the work, and said we could call if there were any problems. Thumbs up!

A handyman service - Just don’t do it…
I had a very unfortunate experience with Deal Handyman, and I urge all others to not use this service to avoid encountering the same issues themselves.
On 23 August 2023 I commissioned Deal Handyman to complete a number of tasks for me - one of which was to install and hang a number of pictures for me. The work was duly completed, to what I thought was an acceptable standard.
Unfortunately, on 1 October, a picture that they installed fell off the wall and crashed down to the floor. The work that they had completed was clearly unsafe and not fit for purpose.
On reporting this issue to Deal Handyman, I requested that they refit my picture, making sure that their work was fit for purpose and safe.
The reply I received was a refusal to do this. They suggested that my frame was the issue (incorrect) and that they would accept no responsibility for this. But they’d happily send someone out to make the work safe, but only if I paid an additional hourly rate to do so.
I find this refusal unacceptable. But I have suffered a brain haemorrhage, a stroke and have been in a coma. I am now permanently wheelchair bound, with both legs paralysed and I’m spasticated, and therefore safety is paramount to me. So I’m now unable to pick a picture off the floor, amend the fitting of a picture hook and re-hang the frame. Therefore I find this refusal doubly unacceptable.
I am now left with no choice - I have contacted Citizens Advice and will now take legal action against Deal Handyman.
So my advice is, based on my experience, only use this service if you don’t care about the safety of the work and not fit for purpose is acceptable to you.
DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE - THEY ARE JUST COWBOYS THAT CARE MORE ABOUT TAKING YOUR MONEY THAN THEY DO ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THEIR WORK.

Dear Dave, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We have exchanged multiple emails about your experience with Deal Handyman, and we are disappointed in your review. Our team were requested by you to fit suitable picture hooks to your wall in order for you to hang picture frames. One of your pictures, from the many we installed, has fallen down. You have confirmed in writing and via photographs that this particular hook that we installed is still in place on your wall, and that it was indeed the picture frame that has broken and fallen off the wall. We regretfully cannot take responsibility for a faulty picture frame, and have suggested multiple times that you need to return to the company where you originally purchased the frame from. We wish you all the best - Deal Handyman

Sunday 3rd July 2022. David came out on Sunday which I was
very impressed with as garden tap would not work for me.
He replaced it for me with an 'easy to use tap' .
I am really
delighted. Very helpful young man and have already booked him in for a few more jobs.

Dreadful. Agreed the price, agreed the date, never saw him again. Tried getting hold of him, but uncontactable - left messages but he never got back. Pathetic waste of time.

Avoid this guy like the plague. Replaced some decking boards for my elderly mother in law that prevented the shed door from opening, no interest in fixing the mess he’s left after taking payment in full.

Thank you Susan for using are services and taking the time to write a review, we will pop back, near the end March to paint your fence free of charge. There was no point in doing it this time of year as it would make the fence root quicker due to the feather boards being wet. Happy New Year many thanks David

Keith
Contacted David to replace faulty ducting between a cooker extractor fan located in an old chimney and the outside wall. David turned up on time for what turned out to be a difficult and very dirty job. David successfully completed the work and although he was covered from head to toe in brick dust always had a smile on his face. It was a very messy job but after David left you would not have known he had been. I would unreservedly recommend David and will definitely use his services again. More...

David was an absolute pleasure to hire. He got in touch very shortly after my request and ensured he could come at a time that was convenient for me - incredibly flexible. He was exceptionally polite and friendly, and completed all the work to an incredibly high standard. Really felt that I had a safe pair of hands in him and trusted him to do everything I asked for without a worry - plumbing to flat pack furniture. Already booked him in for another job and I’m sure I’ll call on him in the future as well. No hesitations in recommending him and very reasonable fee. More...
