Marc did a fantastic job, was very professional, thorough and careful, and provided excellent value for money.

NigelNoCowboys5.0 rating

Mark was fantastic to deal with; Competitive quote, great communication; a job well done, on time and on budget. Even cleaned up afterwards. I'd definitely consider Mark again, for any other jobs I may need doing in the future.

DeniseNoCowboys5.0 rating

Marc and his Team is highly reliable and trustable. They responded to our phone enquiry very quickly and came on the same day to give us a quote for the job for repairing the garden flowerpot. They came for the job on the day as promised and were prompt, efficient, and diligent, The job was completed beautifully, and they were very professional and polite. The place was kept clean and all debris removed after the job was finished. Thank you very much Marc and his Team for the excellent job and

Marc was quick to respond, very efficient and well priced. He knew exactly what to do after my grandson had put two holes in the wall after falling against it. After a couple of days it looks like nothing had happened. Perfect paint match too. We are very happy.

Marc is a trustworthy, reliable and good person who knows his stuff and can rectify many many situations. Marc & his team undertook a major clean up and renovation of my property at very short notice. They rectified 15 years accumulation of neglected home maintenance along with fixing and finishing many incomplete and shoddy diy projects. Work included a complete kitchen replacement, cleaning and painting the interior and exterior including fencing and garage, repairing floors, doors and

If you want speed, I don’t recommend. Wanted Scotias in my house done & he didn’t bring power tools. Cut with a regular saw & hammered nails (which stick out so they’re obvious even when you try plaster & paint). Took 2 guys & 1 hour to only do some scotias on a beam & another small area under1.5m. I wanted to hire a professional who would be able to get it done faster & nicer than I could cause I have burnt out from my renovation at home but ended up that I'm

We got Marc and his team to re-clad our deck, put a small deck in, and concrete board under the house. They gave a good price, did a good job, and when some problems arose, they fixed what needed to be done. They also noticed some plumbing issues, and fixed them too.

Marc was quick to reply, quick to make a quote and gave a generous pensioner discount. He and his offsider finished the job with no fuss and I am more than happy with every aspect of his work. Highly recommended and would definitely have him again.

Marc was able to fit our job into his schedule and he was able to get the vent with ducting installed in record time. Really impressive work. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Mark and his team member did a great job. They were able to fit me in quickly between jobs, and then did a really thorough job of all the things I was needing (shelving up, towel rail, art hung, etc). Would highly recommend.

Marc recently completed three jobs for us - a path, fixing a gate, but the the third and biggest was putting in a bit of floor under our house. Judy and I were very pleased with the result. What a relief as I had held off because I wanted someone who was recommended. Marc was painstaking and worked out very well how to do the flooring. I had in mind 18 mms ply, but he said that thicker ply would better suit what I was trying to achieve. Having seen and tested the result, I am very glad I

Do NOT use Northshore Handyman for any form of painting. Northshore Handyman were recommended by our property manager however the standard of work is below average and our tenant even commented that they weren't interested and did a poor job. We've just used some painters for our house and they had to re-paint what Northshore Handyman had done - very very disappointing and a waste of money.

We are so impressed with Gabriel, our labourer and Marc who booked in our job:) Gabe was very hard working and nothing was too much trouble. He arrived right on time and did a fantastic job. Marc was fantastic to deal with. I would highly recommend this team and use them again! Thank you!

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
In New Zealand, restricted building work must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and all electrical, plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying by a licensed tradesperson (EWRB for electricians, PGDB for plumbers and gasfitters). Check the public register before you hire.
For residential building work of $30,000 or more you are legally entitled to a written contract and a disclosure statement setting out the tradesperson's skills, licences and insurance. Ask for both before work starts.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
