The depth of knowledge this individual possesses is the reason this renovation was only around €100, 000. He isn’t a ‘handyman’; he is a master craftsmen.
P.S. The music choices were great.

This is what we actually call a couple. Understanding each other and working together beautifully. Such a hard work. Amazing and very impressive.

I am 72 year old woman and I am exhausted watching you. LOL. Loved every minute. If only more people (including myself) and youngsters had skills like you. I'm sure we'd never be out of work. Fantastic quality work. Wonderful. I am moving onto the garden renovation, which is much more in my capabilities and talents. Thank you again.

[carolwaugh]

That renovation took not only talent, patience and very hard work, but also a ton of courage! Well done.

I think you do yourself an injustice calling yourself a "handyman" your more like a construction superhero 😂. Looks absolutely mint 👌

[stpward]

This is sort of talent the world needs more of.

[denislyons]

I loved the help that the kitten was providing when the door was being painted!

[irenemcgrath]

You sir could never ever be described as a ‘handyman’. One can only sit back and admire you and your lady for the effort and workmanship you put into that tired house! It’s so beautiful and you two thoroughly deserve to spend the happiest days in your stunning home. 🙌 ❤👏👏👏

[karenberry]

You are indeed an incredibly talented, knowledgeable, very hardworking man. I hope your wife appreciates how blessed she is to have such a magnificent husband.

To see a skilled, true and honest builder at work gave me so much joy. The care and attention to detail is astonishing, I'm presuming your wife was assisting, what a team you two are. You reminded me of my brother, thanks for talking the time to film this video and sharing it with all of us around the world, warm regards .

[CallanRivers-oomm]

Having watched every video in this series multiple times, I am so happy to see this in all its glory.

[tracilong]

Absolutely magnificent!! If only the people who lived there in the 20's could see how beautifully you fixed it up!

[bobbonner]

Awesome to see Mrs Handyman getting stuck right in, she is a keeper!

[MarlaGill]

Without a doubt, you are the most awesome handyman in the UK. You have exceptional skills. You know all the trades.

[davidbramley]

Your attention to detail and build quality exceeds so many of the projects you see online - very, very commendable.

[robertball]

Amazed at your skill levels on every job. Also how you worked as team with your wife . Excellent

[janeconnors]

Absolutely full of admiration. My husband doesn't know one end of a screwdriver from the other. I'm the one with the toolkit and paintbrushes. So envious. Fantastic job

[dianaford]

I’m watching this just before bedtime and I’m exhausted to see all you’ve done. Will sleep well. 🤣 Truly an amazing work!

[stevenbennett]

Watched these as you went through the trials and tribulations. You must both be so proud of what you achieved.

[paulsaunders]

An astonishing level of skill, utterly astonishing…👍🏻
