About Byford Handyman Services

We are the Byford arm of J.A.N Property Maintenance, working across Byford, Armadale, Mundijong and the wider Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale.

The trade experience behind this business goes back more than twenty years across Western Australia, covering plastering, carpentry, tiling, painting and everything that sits between them. Byford is where we are based now.

Why a handyman rather than five trades

Most home maintenance lists are not one job. They are a door that sticks, a cracked cornice, a fence panel down the side and a gutter nobody has looked at since the last owner. Hiring a specialist for each is slow and expensive, and the small jobs never get picked up because they are not worth a specialist's callout.

One tradesman who can do all of it clears the list in a visit or two, and there is one person accountable if something is not right.

How we work

Three things we hold to on every job, whether it is a two-hour repair or a fortnight of work.

Local, and it shows

We are based in Byford and work across the Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale. That means small jobs are worth our time and you are not paying for travel from the city.

One trade, most of the list

Plastering, carpentry, tiling, painting, fencing, gates, gutters, pressure cleaning and clear-outs. Fewer contractors to chase and one person accountable for the result.

A straight answer

If a job is not worth doing, or someone else would do it cheaper, we will say so. We would rather lose a quote than talk you into work you do not need.

Frequently Asked Questions

The things people usually want to know before they book us in.

Do you supply the materials, or do I?

We can supply everything, and we buy to a standard we are willing to warrant. If you have already bought tiles, paint or timber, or you want a specific product, we are perfectly happy to work with what you have.

How do I get a quote?

Send through the form or give us a call and describe the job. Plenty of work can be priced from a clear photo and a few measurements. Anything larger or less obvious, we will come and look before putting a number on it.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We carry insurance for the work we take on, and where a job legally requires a licensed trade, it is done by one. If something falls outside what we should be doing, we will tell you and point you at someone who can.

How long will my job take?

It depends entirely on scope. A door adjustment or a gutter clear is a single visit. Room tiling, decking or an exterior repaint run across several days. You get a realistic timeframe with the quote, not an optimistic one.

Do you guarantee your work?

We stand behind what we do. If something is not right, tell us and we will come back and put it right. That is easier for everyone than arguing about it later.

Can you work around my schedule?

Within reason, yes. We book to suit you where the job allows it, and for work that takes over a room we will stage it so you are not locked out of half the house for a week.

Got something that needs doing?

Tell us what the job is and we will give you a straight answer on price and timing. No obligation, and no pressure if you decide to leave it.
