Cost  65K

Description  Emmanuel was contracted for the entire wood work for the house, including TV unit, kitchen island counter, wardrobes for 3 bedrooms and lots more. He charged us R70K for this, of which had taken R65K but has left much of our work unfinished and has abandoned. He has not been responding to chats, taking phone calls. He took a lot of wood from the property that we had paid for. This job was supposed to finish in November 20, he was just not upto it. He us a great talker but the workmanship of what he has done is also extremely poor. Happy to share pictures of the state of our wood work should anyone still is thinking of hiring him. Please further note: He has been very disrespectful to the lady of the house. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF BY NOT CONTRACTING THIS FRAUD.

Feedback  PLEASE DO NOT HIRE HIM, WE ARE STRUGGLING. PLEASE CALL FOR PICTURES

Description  Rebuilt and installed my bar after the previous guy failed to do the job to my expectations. Emmanuel made new cupboards and installed them with the granite top at a fraction of the cost. It was a very difficult job because he had to reuse the existing material as I did not want to spend more than I had already spent. In the end he managed to pull it off and I was happy.

Feedback  Apart from the price he charged for the job, his degree of professionalism and commitment impressed me. He is highly recommended for someone looking for honesty and trustworthiness.

Description  Emmanuel built and installed kitchen cupboards for my flat. At first I was reluctant to give him this job after reading one of his reviews but after the installation, I realised I would have made a grave error. Everyone who comes to the flat wants to know who did the job and I refer them to Emmanuel. It's work was just that beautiful and perfect. Please try him.

Feedback  From start to finish he kept to his word and all his recommendations worked out well in the end.

Cost  4 800

Description  Needed to have 2 inside wooden doors for a cupboard installed, in the study we needed the existing table re-veneered with blacktop, and two pull-out cupboards installed to the table.

Feedback  Your repeated failure to honor your promises has left us feeling very unsettled & anxious. The quality of your work is shockingly poor! A driver arrived and offloaded our goods. The goods are far from ready and the quality is shocking. When you arrived, you said the work wasn’t finished. And yet you said in an email on Fri, Jul 3, 2020, at 10:03 that the installation could have been done this weekend since the work was done. Your multiple messages late at night and very early on Sunday made me feel harassed. You messaged on Whatsapp, I asked you to respect the early time, and my privacy and my family’s time, and to please not message. You continued to message so I told you I was blocking you, and I did. These 3 incidents talk to unreliability, untrustworthiness, and disrespect. We are choosing not to allude to the many other things that happened during the week in this correspondence since we feel we have raised these issues already. You have left a very bad impression, and we are not comfortable having you in our home or on our property again.
