Recently, and with huge regret - I had cupboards redone and modified by the WoodGuy. I realised last night - a night before eventual and long awaited delivery that there are listed complaints about Guy Mclaren. Unfortunately, I cannot attest to his innocence, I can only list points of a bad experience and terrible, awful workmanship.<br> He is very smooth when he replies, defensively.<br> From my experience he either has a split personality or he's a conman.<br> If you need details - inbox me, on Facebook. Whatever you do...steer way clear of the WoodGuy, Guy Mclaren. He doesn't deserve your business and your money will be sorely missed.<br> <br> <br> <br>

3 months ago we paid a 70 % deposit for the Wood Guy to repair and paint our roof! Every time we call him he either ignores your calls or has an excuse and promises a date but never delivers! Don't pay any deposits and don't believe any of his deadlines!! He's a no show!!

Last year we had an old sold wood table that needed restoring, we received a pamphlet and contacted Guy from WoodGuy. He gave us a quote which we accepted, he fetched the table from us and stripped it, repaired a broken leg and varnished it and returned it looking as good as new. Very very impressed with his service and workmanship! We would highly recommend him to anyone Thanks Guy!!

Woodguy of Guy McLaren's quote was accepted for carpentary worth to R179 000.00 on a new development with a 50% deposit and R10 000 discount for getting the whole contract on condition the R50 000.00 deposit being paid over immediately. He bought wood and showed it off to me. He delivered some of the cut pieces on the premises and start installing the carcasses. The kitchen cupboards he installed 110 cm height - not as agreed. Cut pieces did not fit. He took everything back and bring samples of stained wood to approve which was fine. After weeks- just before Christmas he arrived with stained panels and fit it and ask with a soapy-story an extra drawing for R10 000.00 which I paid over as well as an invoice of R2280.00 for extra work done.<br> After new year the worked stopped and he avoids me and were spreading stories. He is selling now some of my finished stock which differs slightly on what was agreed upon on street corners. What is recommended now for me too get back some money? Under standard carcasses installed on site barely estimates R10 000.00 and had to be mostly redone.<br>

Cabinet Maker, WoodGuy from Nelspruit) - do not trust this operator with a deposit. It is as good as gone and be warned, his workmanship is school woodwork level work. My money is gone, but I hope by reading this I can save others from being ripped off.

Very well known in the Pretoria area for accepting deposits and then never completing the job. (Also trades as Pretoria Handyman or Pretoria Kitchens) NOW operating in Nelspruit. Do not give a deposit. DO NOT HIRE THIS GUY FOR WOODWORK OR MAINTENANCE. If you are silly enough to fall for his tricks do not pay a deposit and don't pay until the job is complete. He knows many shortcuts.
