London Handyman Service - What Jobs We Do? - Customer Comments

This is what our customers had to say about our Saintly Service last month (April 2010)

Wanted to thank you for yet another great Silver Saints experience. Stan arrived well on time and did the jobs required very neatly and carefully, in the high standards I have now become used to from Silver Saints. You guys are by far the most professional and helpful handyman service I have ever come across. Swetha Ramachandran

Our flat has hollow walls. We needed two wardrobes fixing to the walls and a picture hung. Just before he (Stan) arrived the front door handle had come off. As it is integral to the door lock the builder required a new part and was unable to fix until the next day. Stan did the jobs we requested and managed to get the door and locks to work properly until they could be replaced. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Very impressed. Highly recommend. Carla Bennett

We were very happy indeed with the service we received from Silver Saints. I have recommended you to other companies in this building. - Kathryn Smith

I just wanted to say how impressed I was with the service your team offered. Eric arrived promptly, kept me informed throughout and did a thoroughly professional job with little fuss and mess. Hayley Boyd

I was impressed by your work. I just wanted to say how pleased I was by the efficient and professional job that Stan did today.I will be in touch if there is anything else I need doing. Michael Bush

I would be happy to use you again for any works that i need to get carried out so lets hope we can build up a working relationship. Paul Gilvey

I would highly recommend your company! I'm sure I will be calling you again! Roxanne Edmunds

The service was very good and we would be happy to use your company again and will recommend you to others. Matthew Shade

Just wanted to let you know that Roger was absolutely fantastic this morning and sorted out my door. Really appreciate being able to rely on the Silver Saints! Thank you for such a fantastic service you gave me. I couldn't have been more delighted. Your kind man (can't remember his name) hoovered through my list of "things to do" so quickly and pleasantly - and most of all - without any problems! I will certainly be calling on you again. It was like a breath of fresh air!! Mary Hawkins

I am writing to tell you how pleased we were with the Silver Saints service - my nanny said that the handyman was courteous and friendly, and moreover we are extremely pleased with the quality of work and will definitely use your service again. We both work full time and have three children so it is wonderful to find a service that is easy to use. Rhiannon

Very happy with Silver Saints, they offer a great service at a fair price. Daniel Goulding

Excellent customer service. Very prompt in getting a handyman out to us. He was also very good and got the job done quickly and efficiently. It was just a very basic fix (curtain rail had come down and bracket had become detached from the wall), but this job wasn't too small for them and they didn't mind at all. Overall excellent and I will use them again. TH

We've used Silver Saints twice, now: once to fix the temperature of a shower and once to plumb in a dishwasher in an awkward place, across the kitchen from the water source and waste pipe. Both times we were impressed. On the second occasion, in particular, we tried to book a slot online (a good service in itself). The website for some reason let us book for Sunday. We got an email and phone call almost straight away to tell us that this was a mistake and to offer us alternative slots. The end result was that we were able to get someone to come out that afternoon - Saturday - to do a faffy and time-consuming job plumbing the dishwasher in. The first job was cheaper than I expected. The second was pricier than I expected, but it did take time and involve materials - and was on a Saturday afternoon. Both guys were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. A great service - happy to recommend them and will use them again. Gareth Redmond

Just to let you know I was very happy with the service you provided in fixing the insinkerator for my tenants. It was great that you could liase with them directly and assess, quote and fix the sink in an afternoon. I will definately recommend your company to my friends and family. Beth B

Service was excellent - thank you. Paul Feathers

I mentioned when I phoned the office to book some more work that I was really delighted with the work and how professional and friendly Eric was. I have a great nervousness about getting people in to do things (bad experiences in the past) and this experience has completely transformed my view of the industry. I think you are doing great things and will certainly recommend you in the future. Polly Knewstub

This is what our customers had to say about us in March 2010:

Roger has just left after hanging three pendant lights for me (none of them straightforward!) and I just wanted to say how delighted I am with his work. He's a lovely chap and has done a brilliant job.

Kati Carter

Eric undertook a variety of jobs, putting up vertical, wooden, roller and roman blinds as well as replacing a number of light fittings, assembling a CD case and putting a draught excluder on the door. He advised me on a number of issues including using low energy bulbs with dimmer switches. The all round service that Silver Saints provide is exceptional and quality of work second to none. I would definitely use Silver Saints again and am happy to recommend them to others.

Anne Hayhurst

I was really impressed with Robin and the general booking service I received and would happily refer. I do have some more work I would like quoted for – it is wood work on doors and sills.

JP Lagesse

I was very pleased with the service from your company. There are so many service providers where the service is almost non existent and the provider appears to doing the customer a favour. So it was really good that you have a capable person picking up telephone calls and you deliver on the service. I particularly liked that you met an agreed time to visit, rather than ‘’some time in the afternoon’’.

James Parsons

I have just used your service for the first time and I am very happy. Living in South London for nearly 7 years it has always been stressful finding a good plumber. Your Chap ( Roger) Turned up on time and was very polite and professional, He fixed the shower and gave us advice on further maintenance.

Deborah Abery

I had excellent service from Eric. He arrived on a motorbike, and was polite, engaging and hardworking from start to finish. I'll leave an official review now.

James Edge

Just wanted to send an email to say how pleased I am with the job. Roger was really very kind and courteous (I had made a real mess). The mirror is not only hung but to my great relief my botched attempt is totally covered up, excellent value for money as far as I am concerned. Would totally recommend Silver Saints and Roger to anyone.

Sarah Crooks

May I commend you on the professionalism and expertise I have had the pleasure to experience this morning. Roger provided an excellent service and installation for my LCD tv. He is truly a great ambassador for your organisation and look forward to doing business with you very soon.

Saj Hussain

I am delighted with Eric's work - it was of necessity a vague brief and he carried it out with efficiency and resourcefulness. I will certainly recommend you to others, and doubtless be back for assistance in the future.

Monica Gould

Just had Richard here this morning - fantastic service, will highly recommend you to people. Thanks very much indeed.

Richard Cant

We were very happy with Don who was practical and cheerful. We were both mutually sorry that the parts were not obviously compatible though Don recommended a new part that would sort out the problem.

Esther Selsdon

Would totally recommend Silver Saints and Roger to anyone.

Sarah Crooks

I couldn't reply to your enquiry before this, as the work was only done today. I am delighted with Eric's work - it was of necessity a vague brief and he carried it out with efficiency and resourcefulness. I will certainly recommend you to others, and doubtless be back for assistance in the future.

Monica Gould

Found these guys online and was genuinely impressed. A flat rate of, I think, £45 an hour all in, no call out charges and the ability to deal with most things. This was a very small job but they came on time (in fact early), were polite and efficient. Will definitely use them again.

Matthew Rhodes

Customer comments from January 2010

I booked Robin to reseal my bath at 9am and he was at my door on the dot. He quickly got to work clearing the old seal and was done by 11. The job was done very well and he cleaned up after himself well. I would highly recommend him for any similar jobs Also, the communication with Silver Saints was also very efficient and professional. My questions were quickly answered to assure that I was getting the work needed. Choose Silver Saints when you have these jobs for around the house

Claudia Mendias

Silver Saints hung a laundry pulley for me at the top of the landing, mended my loo seat, mended my daughters' chest of drawers and put in new light pulls in both my bathrooms. They were excellent, clean, tidy and were even early! And finished in the time we had pre agreed. I would recommend them.

Ally

I hired Peter from Silver Saints to hang a large(ish) mirror over the fireplace. He arrived a little early which a great surprise... seriously, about 30 minutes after I called the switchboard! Peter's work was done perfectly. He left the house nearly as clean as when he arrived and the mirror looks terrific. He was professional, courteous, quick, and friendly. I'd DEFINITELY hire Silver Saints to do handiwork around the house again. Such a relief to find competent handymen on the internet!

Aiden

Just wanted to say thank you so much for your handy man that just came to fix our shower, he is really nice and completed the job with minimum disruption.

Matthew Rhodes

This is what our customers had to say about our Saintly Service in December 2009.

I just wanted to say how pleased I was with your guy today - sorry, I don't remember his name. As soon as he saw the problem, he came up with the quickest way of solving it rather than spending hours on a more complicated fix even though that would have generated more revenue. That is brilliant customer service, and I will be back in touch in a couple of weeks when I've moved into my new flat so that you guys can do some more work for me.

Carlo Francolini

Thank you incredibly much for your help this week. Nick was very helpful and I am so much more relieved now that the niggling things I had wanted to get done around the flat have all been completed! Thanks to you and Nick and as always, I remain a very happy customer of Silver Saints and will gladly recommend your services to anyone I know looking for something similar! Wishing you the very best for the year ahead.

Swetha Ramachandran

Great service. Very impressed with your company and Paul most helpful. I hope the company does well -it deserves to.

James P. Bliss

Very happy with the service provided.

Keith De Souza

Just a quick email to say very pleased with the job done by the handyman you sent round. He was also very polite and considerate. Would definitely recommend you to others.

Suzanne MacDonald

I was very happy with the service and I will definitely recommend you to people. Should I need any further jobs doing, I shall be in touch.

Lisa Bond

I have to say the service was fantastic. I certainly will recommend it to colleagues, friends and family.

Richard Skeet

Was extremely impressed, thorough and on time! Much Much better than 0800 Handyman Please keep it that way!

Kaushik Guha

Very pleased with the service and the fact that he arrived on time much appreciated.

Rebecca Dabby

My girlfriend was home at the time and said that both workers were very friendly and nice. I am also happy with the job they did (fitting a new power shower) and will recommend you to friends and family.

Ola

Patrick did a great job very pleased with the service

Hilary

Richard was brilliant. The job turned out to be much more complex. Thank you very much.

Mary Aylmer

I was really thrilled with everything Eric managed to get done today (he’s a lifesaver!!) – we’ll most definitely be using you again, and recommending you to all our friends!

Liz Dean

Draught proofing

Richard draught proofed 2 of our old Victorian windows. Did an EXCELLENT job, really pleased with his work. He left the place as clean as he found it. Took really great care in setting things up and putting everything back together again. Would definitely use Silver Saints again. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Emma Fitzsimons

We were very Happy and would not hesitate to recommend Silver Saints and will be using you again ourselves whenever the need arises.

The service was fantastic. I will definitely use your firm again and have already told my friends about you.

Luke Kane

I’m very happy with the work received and would definitely recommend your company.

I have recommended your business to our office assistant for future services.

Joanna Lindley

No worries at all about the coffee table - a fantastic job was done fixing it, just as a fantastic job was done on the windows, and a guttering problem. I'll definitely be using Silver Saints again in future and will be recommending it even more to friends.

Michael Shaw

Thank you for the work carried out, it was friendly, prompt and efficient and very much appreciated by my mother in law.

Jill Jackson

This is what our customers had to say in November about our Service

Silver Saints knock the spots off 0800handyman!!!
0800handyman didn't answer the phone and didn't even have the courtesy to respond to my message! After a week of wiating I called Silver Saints and what a difference!! Responsive, friendly, courteous, I could even agree a specific time to suit me! None of this "some time in the morning" routine... I asked for 3pm and he arrived at 3pm! Jasper came round on the same day at the pre-agreed time and did a great job of hanging two heavy mirrors and a picture. He was quick, very professional and a nice bloke to have a chat with while he was working. I would trust Silver Saints with any jobs I need doing around the house. My first choice for sure!

Elliot Cocks

WHAT A DIFFERENCE!
I needed a fluorescent light fitting removed and a new fitting installed, and was recommended to Silver Saints after an unfortunate experience with another company (see below). The booking process was easy and customer-friendly. On the day, I had a call to warn me that the electrician was running a little late. One knows these things happen and if notified, it's not a problem - and good customer service. The electrician - Robin - was courteous and efficient, completing the job and checking that I was satisfied. The cost was as advised at the time of booking - no hidden extras. All very satisfactory! This was so different from the 'service' I received from a company that considers itself to be 'top dog' (and from whom, to be fair, I had received good service in the past). Their electrician began by checking my electrical installation, assessed it as not meeting current standards though not unsafe, refused to do the booked job but still charged me for an hour's work. This was reduced by half when I complained but still left a bad taste in the mouth. Thank you Silver Saints for restoring my faith in tradespeople!

W Hayward

LCD + Picture Mounting
Very happy with the service and quality of work. I would definitely use you again and gladly recommend your service. The handyman (Roger) was very friendly and professional. Best of all was the price, great value for money! Thank you Silver Saints!

Johann Potgieter

Jasper was very prompt, polite and did a great job. Would recommend the company and Jasper to anyone.

Tina

Silver Saints highly recommended
I found Silver Saints very efficient and friendly. Their work carried out was done quickly and to a high standard. I would highly recommend them to anybody. They also cleaned up any mess they made and were excellent time keepers.

Julianne Lavery

Really good work.
I found Silver Saints through a Google search and was really lucky to have done so. The handyman arrived right on time and assembled the furniture that needed assembling in about 20 minutes. It's all still assembled, too, and very sturdy and well-done, so I can only say the service is excellent.

Louise Whitmore

Another Satisfied Customer
I phoned up Silver Saints on the basis of the many good reviews I read about them on this site and asked them to install a new ceiling fan and a couple of roman blinds. Roger was booked to come at 3 o’clock but turned up around 2:30 after a very nice phone call from Seamus saying he was running a bit ahead of schedule and was it OK with me if he came earlier than booked. Roger was polite and friendly and got straight to work on the fan. He even checked the old one first to make sure it was really the motor that had gone and not just an electrical fault that could be fixed quicker and more cheaply. The new fan was very tricky to put together but he still managed to get it installed in what I thought was a very reasonable amount of time (2 hours), and for much less than what it would have cost me to get a specialist electrical company to come round (those guys won’t even get out of their van for less than £150 – and they certainly wouldn’t have put up a couple of blinds while they were there!) I even had to run out to the shop to get batteries for the remote (which I stupidly hadn’t thought to do before hand) and felt perfectly at ease with leaving Roger alone in the house to get on with things. Once the fan was installed and he made sure it was working perfectly he got to work on the blinds and had them both up in the blink of an eye. He even offered to fix my dripping toilet for free! :-) I am very happy with the quality of the work, the friendliness of both Roger and Seamus, and the reasonable prices they charge for their work. I would definitely book Silver Saints again for any further handyman work I need done in future. Thanks guys, and keep up the good work!

Sandra Cannon

Very big thanks for sorting out the flooring and replacing the bathroom cabinet. I had an email from Sarah, the tenant, today who was absolutely thrilled with the floor and cabinet, she also mentioned how impressed she was with how tidy you left the place too so much appreciated. Really pleased to have found you guys, from now on will be calling for any jobs need doing.

Abigail Brooks Daw

Patrick arrived on time, carried out the work professionally and diligently. He was polite and courteous throughout. I had absolutely no qualms about leaving him to “finish up” and secure the premises thereafter when I had to leave for work.
I was delighted with the service and have no doubt I will call upon you in the future.

David Herbert

Patrick was on-time, quick, effective and attacked problems with logic and gusto. We will be using your service again.

Graham Ball

This is what our customers had to say in May 09

My wife is absolutely delighted with Manfred's work. And she is not easily pleased let me tell you! She is over the moon. I obviously got lucky with my search on the net as we have been looking for a handyman service for ages - you have a repeat customer now as we won't look elsewhere. Keep up the service and you have a customer for life. I am the West End's leading professional clothier, visiting my clients at their homes and offices making it easy for them to get their suits, shirts et al made. I work with many high net worth individuals, over 500. I'll be forwarding my recommendation of your firm to every single one of them this week.

Zaheer Revilla Garcia

Many thanks for all your help. The TV looks great. Manfred did a fantastic job and worked non-stop until he'd completed everything. I think he did a fab job and would highly recommend him and Silver Saints.

Deborah Westhead

You guys are the best!

Athena Stevens

Came at short notice to hang an LCD TV on a wall. Quick, efficient, friendly and cost effective.

Mike Stead

I required a handy man from Silver Saints because I was looking for a professional company to hang a very heavy piece of art on a bad wall. They had experience in this specific area so I booked them. On the phone I felt instantly confident and when Don arrived all my worried had gone away. Very rapidly he installed the 40 kgs object at the right place using the most amazing plugs and screws. High standards, precise, skilful, efficient and experienced! I can only recommend them!

Nathalie Vin

I must say that Roger was really fantastic. He could turn his hand to anything. One minute putting up a blind and the next cutting and effectively making a new door for a small opening between our kitchen and dining room. He was very hard working and it was nose to the grindstone the whole day. The quality of the work was very good and I cannot find any fault whatsoever.

We will definitely use Silver Saints again and will be passing on the good word to all our friends.

Christine Wright

I am very happy with the service received, and have passed on the details to anyone who might be interested. It feels very good to know that I have the handymen there for when I need them.

Frances Greig

Just to let you know that Paul did a great job and I am very happy with the results. He was also very friendly and courteous.

Clair Wearmouth

This is what our customers had to say in March 09

Very good service - thank you very much. We will be using Silver Saints ourselves and recommending you to our contacts.

Marc Weisberger

One of your handymen came to hang our HUGE mirror but I just wanted to say that I was extremely pleased with his efficiency and punctuality + with the reactivity and kindness of your service on the urgent request that this was. I have recommended you to all of our friends and will def. give you a call if we need anything else done in the flat. Thanks again!

Gaelle Moriniaux

We were very impressed with the quality and speed of the work.
