The service received was first class. Hussein messaged to confirm the time followed by a message when he was 20 minutes away. Installed three TV wall brackets and four wall arts in no time at all. Without doubt, I will contact Hussein should I need these services in the future.

Fix sliding wardrobe door

$150

Alexandria NSW, Australia

2nd Oct 2024

One of my sliding mirror wardrobe doors is broken. The heavy mirror has dropped about 5mm, and is no longer within the frame - it cannot slide on the tracks without causing damage. The mirror is currently attached to the frame with double sided adhesive, silicon and duct tape. Needs to be re-attached. The wardrobe clips that guide the door along the top track have snapped because they were installed with countersunk screws. The wheels on the bottom won’t turn.

Andrew went above and beyond to assist with my wardrobes. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
