We initially hired Tom to do some bathroom renovations and install a dining room light fixture. Having found Tom through an Internet search and having read the numerous positive comments on his work, we soon learned that these people really knew what they were talking about. From the outset, Tom provided us with quality workmanship in a timely manner at a very reasonable rate. We were happy with his work and had him come back to paint the interior of our townhouse. Again, very impressed with his professionalism. Tom even fixed the latch of our gate without being asked (something I'd been after the condo association to do for the past 6 months). Thanks again Tom.
Have you ever wished you could have a kindly sprite come into your home while you were at work to do all those handyman-type jobs that are on your wish list? Someone with the expertise to accomplish a wide variety of contracting tasks to make your home just the way you want it? Someone who would do these jobs quickly and skillfully to the highest standards, then quietly leave again, leaving everything tidy and clean, with no trace of being there, other than a magical transformation for you to enjoy when you get home?
Tom Goodfellow of Goodfellow Handyman Service is just this someone. From the outset, starting with his first friendly phonecall in response to my inquiry, I felt assured I was dealing with a highly experienced contractor with a wide range of skills who wasn’t going to mess me around; and I was proved quite correct. He is most knowledgeable and is also able to suggest a variety of ways to tackle jobs, including less costly alternatives if one has budget constraints.
Tom is professional in all aspects of his business, from his appearance, to arriving punctually for his appointments, to completing his work within the timeframe he gives you. His workmanship and craftsmanship are of the highest quality and you can be assured that you’ll get exactly what was agreed upon; he sticks to the terms of his quote with no hidden surprises. Even the administrative side of his business runs smoothly and unobtrusively in the background with no delays or hitches.
You won’t regret hiring Tom Goodfellow. Quite apart from being an outstanding contractor, he is a thoroughly nice guy and a pleasure to have around. I am a very satisfied and content customer and highly recommend his work.
Tom from Goodfellow handyman was by far the best contractor that I've done business with. He was very clean and made sure that the area he was working on was tidy before leaving for the day. His work was done at a very high calibre and I would put him in the ranks of the elite when it comes to flooring, painting etc. He's a one man show and gets the job done on time. He's a pleasure to do business with and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do renovations on their home.
My husband an I found Tom through an Internet search on Google and from the initial phone conversation, we were very impressed with him. He had asked us to email him a list of what we were asking him to accomplish and he got back to us right away with a time frame and his hourly rate. The list you send him is not only his check list, but it's also a list for him to stop by the hardware store and come to your home prepared to do the work. He's very personable, a hard worker and if there is a job he can't do, he is more then willing to offer who can do the job... that means a lot! We were also impressed with him getting the most out of his mobile phone. If there is an item that needs to be purchased, say a kitchen facet, Tom will email you several styles to pick from and purchase it himself. It saves you time from having to go to the hardware store and you know it going to work... BIG plus! I think you can see how efficient he is and you won't be disappointed with his work.
Tom was an amazing handyman. We had originally hired him to fence in our backyard for our puppy and were so thrilled with his work we hired him to finish our basement. First and foremost, Tom was very trustworthy. We gave him a key and he completed the basement while we were at work. We never had to worry about anything going wrong as Tom worked very efficiently and gave us lots of updates and was in constant communication. We found him very professional and his work was very clean. He also didn’t mind a crazy puppy in the house while he worked. We did find the sub-contracted mudders to not have the same work ethic or quality for workmanship as Tom. However, they did keep us on budget so a little extra mess was fine. We would recommend Goodfellow Handyman Service to anyone looking.
We are very satisfied with the fence that Tom built for us. Everything was completed on time and within pre-agreed budget. When Tom found out that we have a disabled son, he installed gates safety features to keep our kid safe and sound. We are very pleased with the work Tom conducted for us.
Vadim and Olga.
