Does anyone know of a good home handyman service?

We have tried different 'tradesmen' who have bad tools, do a poor job and leave a mess. Has anyone out there found a reliableservice - plumbing, electrical, carpentry??

Home Doctor contd: They brought everything they needed. They didn’t stand on the furniture. They cleaned up after themselves. I think they are unique in Doha, and I recommend them.

Try The Home Doctor 33842660. I needed lots of small jobs doing. Whenever I thought of the time and hassle it would take to sort things (based on past experience), I would instantly lose the will to live, so kept putting it off. These guys came, at the agreed time, and: rehung the kitchen door, fixed the water supply to the washing machine, put up 2 blinds, fixed a leak in the upstairs bathroom, fixed the tap in the downstairs bathroom, changed lightbulbs (20+), hung 15 pictures and mirrors, and reattached the centre wooden strip to the front door. It took about 3 hours. Second visit (less than 2 hours): fixed outside lights, reattached door handle of maid house, checked water and electric supply to maids house, hung large iron lampshade above front door. They knew what they were doing. They brought everything they needed. They didn’t stand on the furniture. They cleaned up after themselves. I think they are unique in Doha, and I recommend them.
