Melboy Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Not at all mate the company was recommended by a collegue, i thought id give the guys a shout as they helped me out loads! you dont know what u chatting about mate, im a police officer for the MP actually and no need for the sarcasm, bloody keyboard warriors.. In your first posting you are asking this forum if anybody knew of a maintenance company or handyman for your area. In your second posting you are giving out details of a company that you use and recommend......so what is it to be? We get a lot of people posting on here in what only can only be described as thinly disguised self advertising their business postings and your posting comes across to me as exactly that by the way you have listed your requests. Any landlord can easily find their own maintenance company or handyman to fix their rental property problems for their local area if they put their mind to it.

DuB-RooTz Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 yes, i was looking for a handyman, the estate agents i deal with use there own and was too busy to do work for anyone else, so i asked on here as advised by my estate agent looking after my property. you with me so far? as a new landlord i have recently dealt with a couple of handymen & maintenance guys recommended by other landlords and friends, who i werent happy with. in my second post i gave details of a company that i called on the day and my ###### was dealt with on the same day with no problems, so i happily gave them a shout on here.. sorry im not very forum savvy for you guys that my posts werent put in a certain way.. and no, i as a landlord couldn't find anyone reliable in my local area to do the work required!

Mortitia Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 A Met policeman who can't spell colleague with a rental property and a handle like a blick drug dealer. Very interesting characterisation. Mortitia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
