Worst service provider - do not use
David the owner of the above company came to my house with his son and promised he could do the job. I paid him in full for the job. Despite my repeated messages, phone calls and emails him and his wife refused to answer my calls. His wife promised they will pay the money back but to date I haven't received any funds from them. please refrain from using this service provider.

David Tshanga - The Handyman Midrand
PLEASE BE WARNED OF (DR) DAVID THE HANDYMAN. David Tshanga of Midrand has a website galaxyroyalhome.wixsite.com/handyman which looks professional and gives the impression he has a network of contractors. I phoned for someone to repair my driveway gate, David sent someone by the name of Rendani who looked at the gate, said what needed to be done and thumb-sucked a quote. It sounded reasonable and aligned with what I thought needed repairing so sent him a deposit. For three days I got the runaround and eventually phoned David to cancel as I did not trust that I would get the job done. David promised to return my deposit but also gave me the runaround by saying he had a funeral to attend and a week later said he didn't have the money and would pay me soonest. Needless to say he has shown himself to be a ***** and con artist. PLEASE BE WARNED OF (DR) DAVID THE HANDYMAN. He also runs other businesses for which I have seen negative comments, i.e. he sells RDP houses on Gumtree and on Facebook. I have since had the gate repaired by someone who gave me genuine and honest service. That company is Damel Doors and Access Control.

Scam
We contacted, and appointed The Handyman, alias Eugene Scholtz to undertake a roof installation. After paying 50% deposit upfront he never started the job and after 6 weeks of messing around with us with different reasons not to finish the job (holidays, sick, rainy weather although it was sunny) we finally asked him to repay the deposit. The deposit should have been paid back a few days ago but he said he couldn't due to \unforeseen personal costs"from his side. Stay away from this builder since he is very unserious!!!"""

\Forgot"to finish the job and didn't return"""
After quoting on a whole lot of DIY items that needed doing in our office, Bobby came back the next day and did a great job and we paid, but afterwards I found that he had forgotten to replace a plug socket. we paid for. When I emailed him to ask about it, he said it was a mistake and he would be back. After repeated mails and him pleading illness and then promising to come the next day, he has stopped answering my mails. It has been a month and no sign of him<br> [URL Removed]<br> The Handyman Services Cape Town<br> Ph: 079 6590 274<br> [Email Removed] <br>
