Andy did a splendid job with all the work (fitting bathroom cabinets, desks and hanging up frames) that needed to be done in my house. He left the place clean! Very friendly as well. I would recommend him for any fitting/ joinery tasks! Will be using him in the future for other tasks! More...

Andrew came to build me some ikea wardrobes for me today, thought I would be able to do them myself, but having tried I knew I wouldn’t be able to build them as they should. He came and did an absolute brilliant job. There was four very large units, very difficult to put up, but Andrew built them exactly as you see on the website. All fitted out internally with drawers hanging racks the lot. It took him six hours, how I will never know. I can highly recommend him as a person and his workmanship to anybody who purchases anything similar to what I did. Excellent job at a very reasonable price for the work carried out. More...

I put a post out for someone to build a 5 door PAX wardrobe from Ikea, within an hour Andrew had responded and messaged with a quote and dates that he could do. Andrew arrived on the day and time we agreed and built the wardrobes to a high standard, I couldn’t be happier with the result, he tidied everything away before leaving and was just a genuinely great guy that takes pride in his work, will definitely use again for other jobs and will be recommending to friends/family.

Andy got in touch when I requested someone to build ikea pax wardrobes .
Was very pleasant on initial contact and he had good experience of building PAX and also quoted a good price.
So I knew he was the one for the job.
He turned up when he said he would even through the snow and rain .
He set everything up and was well organised and went to work building 1 x 5 door wardrobe and one 1 x door wardrobe with internal drawers .
Nothing was an issue for him. He did an excellent job very pleased with the wardrobes and workmanship.
And to top it off - he is a really really nice genuine person . Honestly it’s so hard getting the right people to do a good job - but Andy was brilliant. I would definitely, wholeheartedly recommend him.

Andy was on time, contacted me prior to arrival as I requested and worked full days on both days to ensure both wardrobes were completed within a timely manner. He went as far as to ensure the wardrobes were level as my floor was not and fixed an issue with the sliding doors too. Very knowledgeable and he listened to my thought and opinions and changed things to ensure the fixtures would work smoothly and effectively. Thank you! More...

Andy did a fab job putting up various nursery items for me including a changing unit, wardrobe and a small unit. He was very polite and when he'd finished the job, he took us through what he'd done etc (safety catches on changing unit) He is very reasonably priced and we will certainly be using his services in the future. Very happy to give a 5 star rating! Thanks again 😊 More...

Absolutely brilliant! Will ask Andy to help with the next D I Y project.

I hired Andrew in June 2020 and I can hands down say is craftsmanship is impeccable. I hired him to assemble some tricky pax unit (4 full sized units in total). Andrew worked super fast and simply got the job done. We came across with some issues regarding the skirting but after communicating we came with a fix and managed to get the job done. He listens (which is brill as this isn't always the case). I also got him to assemble a ikea make up vanity which was equally as amazing. I am leaving the review 8 months later and can say that everything is holding as good as it was when he first did the job. Work was so good and well priced thats I shared him details with my sister who had her full walk in dressing room done by Andrew. Hopefully will hire him again in summer of 2021 to do my mums. Thanks Andrew. More...

Andy was punctual. He got started on the flat pack wardrobe straightaway and kept me well informed along the way. He is also a very tidy worker, made sure all the cardboard boxes were neatly put to one side, making it easier for me to dispose of. Would recommend Andy for any flat pack assembly jobs. More...

All done, sturdy and executed in a tidy manner. Polite, friendly I could go on for days.... Andy just seemed to put the customer at the heart of his task and it was very much appreciated.

Andy arrived promptly and text me to say he was on his way. Upon arrival I asked Andy if he could put up an extra item and this was not a problem at all.

I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again and of course would highly recommend him. A job very well done. Thank you Andy from a very happy family. More...

Nadeem P
Andy was absolutely accommodating and great from the word go. He was punctual and completed work even though it took 2 extra hours to complete it due to the complexity of the job. He was polite and kept me updated throughout. The installation was tricky as it had to be done upright and not many could pull it off. Andy, not only completed it but did a good job in terms of quality for the size of the wardrobes. Highly recommend, and I'll hire him without thinking twice the next time. More...

Martin Jecks
We hired Andrew to construct a large ikea wardrobe (actually 4 joined together). From the start it was a pleasure working with him, communication was clear, Andrew was very punctual, worked hard and completed the project to a high standard and in less time than forecast. Thanks for a great job Andrew, we would definitely hire you again! More...
Racha Aaraj
Andrew arrived on time on Saturday morning as agreed, took off his shoes to avoid dirtying our carpet and then got straight away into assembling a large cabinet from IKEA.
In short, in my experience, Andrew is painless, works smoothly and is nice to talk to. Worth also mentioning that Andrew is considerate: for example, it was his suggestion to move the job from Thursday (as initially agreed) to Saturday, to avoid me taking a day off work in order to be present at home.
Overall, we are very glad to have known Andrew and look forward to working with him again.
