The Friendly Handyman
My name is Simon and I am not your conventional handyman. I have a keen eye for detail and take pride in thinking outside the box and offering long term solutions rather than just a quickfix. I don't follow a 'one size fits all' approach as I believe each situation and client is unique, which is why I will always consider both function and aesthetics for delivering optimal results.

My clients appreciate my honesty and reliability for delivering quality work, and I treat each job like it was my own home. See some testimonials from happy clients here. Installation and repair of existing timber doors, locks, handles and door stops, installing child safety locks to windows, releasing stuck windows.
Services
Installation of new or repairing existing timber doors, installing new door hardware including locks, handles and door stops, installing child safety locks to windows, releasing stuck windows. However long or short your list, don't hold off any longer and get in touch so that I can help you get them ticked off and completed.
People usually make the mistake of thinking they can do plastering all by themselves because they think they have enough knowledge and tools to do this successfully without making mistakes. Unfortunately, almost every time, they realise that fixing mistakes and improving their work will be more expensive than calling a professional plasterer right away.
When it comes to painting, no matter if it is the interior or exterior of your home, you should rely on professional service instead of trying to do it on your own. The main reason why you would avoid DIY options is that it is a demanding and stressful job, and you can make mistakes that will make your space look unattractive.
Although many people think that professional carpentry service is needed only when you are planning to buy new, custom-made pieces of furniture, that is not true. There are many other situations when you might need help from a skilled carpenter, and that is where I step in with high-quality service, tailored to your needs.
Maybe you have a broken ceramic tile on your floor that needs to be repaired. Perhaps there is a piece of your laminate floor that needs to be replaced, or you need someone who can install the new wooden floor in your newly built home. Since this is something most people cannot do on their own, it is not unusual that this makes you feel overwhelmed.

I look after a luxury mixed use building in Bondi Beach. I call Simon for any general repairs as his professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. This important in an environment when owners and residents expect only the best. I have recommended Simon to colleagues and residents and only receive positive feedback from them. If you want the best job possible, Simon should be your first call.

While my wife was away on business, I wanted to surprise her and quickly hang an expensive piece of art. I was nervous about finding a handyman that knew how to treat fine art. Simon was able to arrive in the same day, consult about the best ways to hand the large painting and complete the job in less than an hour. I couldn't be happier, and my wife loved the surprise when she came home later.

I have used Simon’s services on two occasions and have found that he is efficient, thorough and of course friendly! Simon is also meticulously clean. I would recommend Simon’s services to anyone needing jobs done around the house, big or small.
