EXP Property Maintenance

We needed some skirting boards fitted in a refurbished conservatory with some funny corner angles etc. I got in touch with Mike by email and he responded very quickly and we arranged a date/time at relatively short notice, which was great. He was punctual and not only carried out the agreed work efficiently and very competently but also gave the boards a lick of paint as well, saving me a job and going beyond what we'd originally agreed. I would very much recommend EXP's services and will not hesitate to use again, top stuff.

I have finally found an amazing handyman. My house had not been decorated for a long time and one interior wall was suffering from water damage. Mike used a number of creative solutions to repair and decorate my kitchen, bathroom and downstairs toilet. The finished result is beautiful and they now look like new again. I am so pleased with my boxed in pipes that I have made them into a ‘feature’. Mike is a skilful and talented problem solver. I really appreciated how he not only decorated my house to a high standard but also restored my wooden conservatory doors, fixed the shower, put up shelves and mouse proofed my house. Mike is a lovely man who has the patience of a saint. He is very professional, reliable and a nice person to have around.

Mike from EXP Property Maintenance came to our house in May 2024 and he put up some curtain rails and curtains and some pictures and did some repairs. We were satisfied with the results . Mike is a friendly and cheerful person and was a pleasure to have in the house. We would be prepared to use Mike again. A tradesman I came across recently told the interesting story that "Which Trusted Trader" actually sent someone to speak to them , gave them a grilling in order to vet them whereas another similar organisation, which better remain nameless , didn't bother. The latter organisation just put his name on their site as someone who was supposedly recommended as long as they were paid. So regarding certain other tradesman-recommendation sites, "Caveat Emptor!"

I needed a new curtain rail to be fitted, and my curtains to be rehung. Michael carried out the work very efficiently and cheerfully, I am very happy with his work and I will certainly make use of EXP Property Maintenance in the future.

Mike recently installed four secondary glazing units at my rental property. He was extremely professional and easy to work with, and provided a clear and accurate estimate of the costs ahead of doing the work. He completed the job promptly and to a very high standard. I was very impressed with his attention to detail and the care he took to make sure the installation was perfect. He was happy to liaise direct with my tenant to arrange a day to complete the work and the tenants were delighted with their interaction with him. I will definitely be using him again for all my future property maintenance work. Very highly recommended!

Mike Gowdy recently completed some work for me. This is the second lot of jobs he has done for me, as I was much impressed first time around. This time, there was some decorating/painting inside and outside the work was to do with gate lock changing, plus improvements in insulation and appearance around windows. The work was of the usual high standard, and visitors have been impressed. Mike communicates well, and is responsive to requests. He resolves problems very effectively . All of this is done with great flexibility and at very reasonable cost. All in all, great value for money, and I shall most probably ask back for more work.

I have used Mike from EXP several times for a wide variety of jobs from repair of tiling, door insulation, making a new door, to repair of guttering and myriad smaller maintenance jobs. He has done great work all these - often not straightforward jobs- using skill and problem solving creativity and always offering cost effective alternatives. He is versatile and totally reliable. I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

I called Michael of EXP to repair a front door lock and improve the draught proofing around the door. He came back to me promptly providing an estimate for the job via email and came round within days to do the job. He fixed the lock quickly and then set to work trying to block the gap around the front door that was letting in the cold air. Due to the age of the solid wood door, it was warped so conventional off the shelf draught- proofing didn't work. Despite this, Michael used his considerable carpentry skills to repair the problem. He also carefully painted the additional new wood so that it blended in well with the exisiting door frame. In the days following, the draugh-proofing was almost too effective and we found that sometimes we had to pull the door very hard to close it. I contacted Michael and he happily came back the next day and modified the dooor slightly so that it opened and closed more easily. Michael is a very skilled worker and a pleasant man to deal with, providing great customer service. I am happy to recommend him as a handyman.

Mike came and fixed problems with two toilets, some wiring, and plugs. Excellent work, good value and great communications all the way through.

We had a problem with our side door jamming. Mike was able to book us in promptly and did an excellent job. Highly recommended.
