    I recently engaged a handyman to make my pool fence compliant and there was quite alot of work to do, 19 different items according to the pool inspector. I got 5 quotes .

    1. 4500
    2.3600
    3. 2900
    4. 2885
    5. 640.

    Obviously went with the last guy and he did a great job with good communication thoroughout. Very down to earth Aussie gentleman. Now this might be a one off, who knows . But he's going to be my go to handyman from now on and I've instructed all my brisbane PMs to engage him first for future works .

    Anyone looking for a Brisbane handyman PM me and I'm happy to share .

    Really don't know why..maybe very busy? But he was much cheaper. I have only used him once but based on those rates.. I cant imagine he won't be competitive next time.

    And now everyone's called him and he's too booked out to do any work or be communicative. :D
