Don't need them very often - but always great when I do. I like that they try and get as much info as they can before the job to minimise time on site. Highly recommended.

I used the Handy Squad many, many times over many years and recommended them to many others. In the last two years however, the quality of the handymen sent to me came down considerably and the responsiveness of the office staff really went downhill too. The last two repairs had to have remedial action as they were badly botched, leaving damage on the walls and on a garden shed. and the last interactions with the office staff were really rude. I'm very sad as it used to be a brilliant service, but I can no longer recommend them. Look elsewhere for dedicated, professional handy-people.

Jonathan expertly replaced two broken sash cords on a window; he was efficient, meticulous and friendly. We have used The Handy Squad for a variety of jobs in the past and have always found them a pleasure to do business with.

The Handy Squad are amazing. I had hired them a few times no and they have never let me down. Rather than hiring a stranger and being worried about who will turn up, I can trust the Handy Squad Team. I recently hired them to undertake half a day of odd jobs. The guy turned up on time, was polite, helpful, skilled and cleaned up after each job. They also do plumbing, electrics and more so make sure you book the Handy Squad for your jobs. Here are a few pictures of what they did for me - roller blinds hung in living room, bedside tables hung on walls, picture hung, curtain rail put up, etc.

Not happy. Plumber came ill equipped, borrowed stuff from me and did not do the job. Left with things worse than before. Had to hire another plumber to get it done.

Booked an electrician for last weekend who didn't turn up and despite calling, emailing, and tweeting the company they didn't bother to respond or offer any explanation.

Awful. First time I tried using them they made mistakes then lied several times to try to cover their mistakes up. Then worst of all their employee "Adem" rings me up & intimidates me on the phone in an attempt to make me pay for no work done. Dealing with Handy Squad was a truly traumatic & deeply unpleasant experience. AVOID this bullying, lying bunch of crooks.

It can be difficult to know where to find reliable people to do jobs around the home. This mob aren't cheap but they turned up when they said they would and didn't mess around with the jobs. They seemed really competent and were also very quiet and polite and didn't patronise me. I also like the way the office staff answer your emails very quickly. I guess in this game, you get what you pay for.

Be very careful before calling this lot in for a quote. They charge £20 + VAT for a quote (refundable from the price of the job), but tried to charge us £300 + VAT for a job that should have taken under 3 hours (at their own trademan's admission) AND we were supplying all the materials!


The half-day rate they advertise on the site is £160 + VAT.


Needless to say, we didn't take them up on their offer, but they still walked away with £20.


Shameful service.

I telephoned the Handy Squad as I needed a tiny job done in a home, they were very friendly, answered all my questions and gave me their prices.


The handyman turned up on time, were quick and efficient.


They are really good and will definitely use them again, if only all services were like this.
