Handyman

Post by cbavasi » Sat, 13 Jun 2009 8:25 am

I'm in need of a handyman fairly urgently. I was recommended the most fantastic guy on this site and have used him the past couple of years but think he may have changed his number.

Primarily need patching up holes, rehanging curtains, picture hanging...etc.

Thanks in advance!

Oops! I meant to reply to this thread not the other ... Mr. Chew wouldn't come to the Tanglin area. Does anyone else have a reliable handyman? Any help appreciated.

Ok so I called NTUC Home Services and they recommend someone in your area - so this guy came and he was nice and all but did a really sloppy job and charged me about 3x what I've paid previously).

Has anyone used someone to hang pictures, mirrors.. etc?

I used the guy from the Mr Fix It Store. They have a service and call out and hanging 3 pictures was $40.00
