Ian is an experienced and honest handyman. Recently he powerwashed and restained our huge deck (over 1000 square feet) with two coats after replacing a few rotten boards. In addition, he power washed the exterior of our house and re-stained the tool shed as well. He did a fantastic job, which we are very satisfied with. Both the job quality and cost were much better than those larger painting companies in the Brunswick area that I had dealt with before. Ian is very professional. He responded to my phone call quickly even when he was on vacation. I recommend Ian without hesitation.

I sent an inquiry to Ian Marshall, the Scottish Handyman, via email from Angie's website. I received a prompt response by phone and arranged to meet him to review what was required. He provided good advice as to how best to proceed with refinishing the deck which was not in good condition. As soon as the weather permitted he was on the scene working. He is very efficient and the job was done well. I will certainly keep him in mind for any future work I might require. The cost was reasonable.
Description of Work: Pressure washed & applied two coats of stain to our deck. Planed the top of the laundry room door.

I called him to see if he could do the small repairs I needed done, because the plumbers weren't interested in small jobs. He came the next day, purchased a part he needed from the hardware store, did the work I asked, and tried to fix an electrical problem, too. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Ian cleaned out a bathtub drain and fixed a more serious problem with a broken pipe.

I contacted Ian via e-mail after reading his reviews on Angie's List, and looking through his business website. Ian responded right away, and came out to my house to take a look at the project. When I was ready for him to come back out and do the the work, I e-mailed him and again, he was very prompt and professional in his response. He came out and did a great job. My husband and I are not handy whatsoever, so it is a big relief to have found such a trustworthy, and skilled professional. I will definitely use his services again in the future.
Description of Work: Ian placed a transition between a carpeted room, and cement flooring.

Response from SCOTTISH HANDYMAN
Having checked through my notebook i find i have no record of the member, i therefore assume he phoned the wrong number or was trying to connect with a different contractor. I pride myself in responding to every phone call or email in a timely fashion and all testimonials state how timely i am compared to many local contractors. This entry does not reflect how i do business.

He did outstanding work. Very trustworthy and very honest. If he can't do it himself, he will get someone out that will do a great job for you. I can rely on him to do anything I ask, and he will do it right. I would nominate him for awards.
Description of Work: I've used him for the past 3 or 4 years. He re-did my bathroom, kitchen, and laundry room. He looks over my house in the winter when I am gone. He has done numerous things for me over the years.

Ian came to evaluate all the tasks I had on my list and gave us an estmate prior to us approving. He is always prompt with our requests (Ian has done handyman work for us for 4 or 5 years on our cottage as well as our year-round home right next door to our summer cottage). Ian is incredibly tidy with painting and does not drip paint anywhere and cleans up all old paint chips----even from the grass areas surrounding the deck and porch. While this was a large job with multiple tasks he completed, Ian will respond promptly to even one small need such as fixing the hydraulic return on a storm door damaged by wind. He has done interior painting in our home several times and we plan to hire him in the spring 2012 to paint inside our cottage. I cannot say enough positive things about the quality and carefulness of the work Ian Marshall does!
Description of Work: 1. Treated with bleach and pressure washed deck (Trex-deck), handrails and ceiling of covered porch (this is for our cottage that is on a cove and had lots of mold built up--it was awful!. This is a deck that wraps around our cottage on 3 sides) 2. Painted deck handrails 3. Painted covered porch ceiling 4. Scraped old paint off and applied glazing putty to windows requiring it and painted 8 windows with 12 panes per window 5. Replaced storm door lock and handle and also replaced a screen door handle 6. Replaced flooring in cabinet under my kitchen sink

Ian Marshall is just a very pleasant person. He is Scottish. He is straightforward. He did an assortment of jobs and he did a nice job. I liked him and we have had him again since then. His price is good and the quality of work is also good. We will use him again. I have asked him in fact to do some shoveling for us this winter and he is happy about it.
Description of Work: Scottish Handyman came out last spring and repaired the counters in the kitchen. He also fixed the cover of the refrigerator which was loose and he replaced a ceramic tile. He has come here a couple of times when we've had some small jobs.

He did a phenomenal job and his timing was extraordinary. He has done minor carpentry for me before. I spent about $3,000, including the price of the tile. I have used him a lot and I have always been impressed with his abilities, work and everything. He is really quite good and his responsiveness was perfect.
Description of Work: I used Scottish Handyman in May of this year and he tiled my bathroom and foyer.

Ian is accessible, reliable, hard working, trustworthy, efficient, fast, fair and honest. He considers options on the best way to approach a project. When a bad batch of caulking around our kitchen sink didn't gel, he was back in a flash to re-do it. Recently he painted our bedroom. When the number of hours it took him was lower than he had expected (because we had prepared the room for him ahead of time) he charged us less than the estimate to which we had agreed. We look forward to Ian taking care of our projects for years to come.
Description of Work: Ian performed several jobs for us: caulking, spackling, pressure washing a very moldy outdoor lattice connection between house and garage, and painting our bedroom. Interestingly enough, our first encounter with Ian was when he gave us an estimate to build a gate for our trex deck. My husband thought it sounded high so he decided to build it with the help of a neighbor. After way too many hours, he realized how reasonable Ian's quote had been. That was the beginning of our relationship with The Scottish Handyman.

He is honest, reliable and on time. He is an excellent worker, and he charged reasonable prices.
Description of Work: He has done a bunch of little projects for me. He put in new blinds in a large window. He painted our deck and removed old unsightly wire. He sanded and refinished some of my floors in the dining room, and repaired some drywall in a bedroom and painted it as well.
