All round handyman #2

House Repair & Maintenance Auckland City, Auckland

1.0

He turned up on time and then spent 4 hours trying to affix a curtain rail. Made a big hole in the wall, bogged it and then walked out blaming me for having the wrong curtain rail. He has left a huge mess and a curtain rail that hasn't been installed properly and can't be used. None of the other jobs were even looked at before he grabbed his bag and left. He did return my deposit but wanted to charge me for the time he had spent here. I would not recommend this person.
