Read the article on JSI in the May 09 Handyman Magazine though we must point out a small mistake: the photo on the second page with the caption "Hire A Hubby worked on this house, ripping up the carpet to sand and polish the floorboards" is actually a JSI job. We worked on the flooring, built the staircase, bi-fold doors, painted the room and even installed the fishtank in the wall! Just thought we'd mention it.

We recently did some fairly extensive renovations by adding a bedroom, deck and recladding and painting the whole house. The quality of the work was absolutely first class. The main builder Bruce's work was amazing and he kept us informed of issues and costs along the way. Most of all his attention to detail was second to none. Similarly JSI's painter Marlon was excellent. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the end result and would recommend JSI to anyone undertaking small or large renovations.

Just a note to let you know Flavia did great work for me yesterday. It turned out to be a very busy day and she stayed late to complete all the tasks I threw at her. A lovely girl who takes pride in her work. Thank you for sending her and please let her know how much I appreciated her help.
Therese - August 2010

Thank you for the work with which I was extremely pleased. It was professional and very good.
Judith - August 2010

Val has excelled himself again. Job completed beautifully.
Helen - August 2010

Thanks to Val for the work and cleanup. That is the cleanest anyone who has come into do work has left it.
August 2010

Just wanted to let you know how impressed we have been with Glen, such a nice man and so hard working. Great to have a stable team in Glen & Richard. Things moving along nicely, just holding thumbs for more clear (albeit cold) weather :)
Claire - July 2010

Thanks for the great job your guy did at Harris St recently. All worked really well from my end.
Tricia, Paddington - July 2010

We can't comment highly enough about the people at Just Screw It. Nothing is too much trouble, and the work they have done at our house is absolutely spot-on. Some small imperfections were fixed immediately (including some we did ourselves). Experience means everything and it is obvious they have been in the market for a long time. Honest, reliable, friendly and professional. Highly recommended.
Col and Shiralee, Stanmore - June 2010

I inspected four sites with Energy Australia representatives last Friday. No defects, no call-backs and four Certificates of Practical Completion. Great work.
Mike - June 2010

Dear Chad, I'm just writing to report that both the jobs at my place have been finished. Scott did a brilliant job. I think I told you that two other people tried to fix the sliding door and failed. Its some unusual European system. Scott came and calmly took it apart, figured it all out, hung the door and then put it all back together. It works perfectly now. Equally good job with laundry doors. Both jobs very professionally finished. He was on time, v efficient and quick and cleaned up. Can't ask for better.
Alex, Glebe - June 2010

Hi Chad, Gez has finished my cupboard and did a fantastic job. He came up with a really ingenious solution and I couldn't be happier. I have asked him to come back next Friday morning to stain my deck.
Kerry, Glebe - June 2010

I want to thank you for your prompt response to my request. The guy you sent was very polite and efficient. Thanks again.
Henry - April 2010

Chad, just wanted to tell you how impressed we were with by Ross, his enthusiasm, quality of work and his general demeanor.
G Doogue - March 2010

We were extremely pleased with the professional way this rather difficult job was carried out by Val & Sebastian, and the quality of their work.
Also it is unusual these days to find a company which is interested in knowing whether you are satisfied. Thanks for the phone call Kylie, and also for Val & Sebastian being absolutely prompt and also doing a first class job "done right, on time". Well done and worth waiting for.
H Weinberg, Point Piper - March 2010

Just a quick note to say how fantastic Oliver was. Apart from being an excellent builder he was a very personable, honest man. You should be proud to have him on your team.
Paul Thomas, Erskineville - February 2010

You helped me a couple of months ago to replace our back door and the experience was so good I'm hoping you can help again, this time with our front fence.
Surry Hills - February 2010

Tomasz and Pavel have just left. I was actually sad to see them go! Cheerful, capable and very hard working, they have done a superb job in stabilizing, securing and repairing a large stone and timber garden room that was being pushed over by a massive tree. They also expertly fixed a whole list of jobs inside the house, to my complete satisfaction. The premises have been left spotless, and all rubble taken away to the tip.
Thank you so much Chad. From beginning to end, it has been a pleasure working with you. I wish you and your workers all the very best. Your service is outstanding.
Wendy - January 2010

Firstly I would like to say just how happy we were with the job. It matched our requirements exactly, and Jacques was professional, polite and punctual.
Sky, Pure Botanicals - January 2010

Just Screw It was proud to help the Nicholson St Public School with is Halloween Festival. Read more

We had the pleasure of having Flavia from Just Screw It help us to do a broad range of jobs around our house over a few days. She was punctual, efficient and very skilled. Flavia could put her hand to a range of different tasks - from hanging up pictures, fixing a leaky roof, replacing boards on a deck to fitting a new oven. We've used Just Screw It previously with the same experience and will definitely use JSI again - they're an extremely professional team.
Daniel - November 2009

I am thankful for the timely repair to our sliding door which required a bit of creativity on your behalf. I think it was Andrew who did the work... and I am most thankful.
Michael - October 2009

Thank you to everyone at Just Screw It for all of your hard efforts and endeavors. We love our house and will hopefully see you at some stage next year to see about the extension upstairs.
Robert - October 2009

Just thought I'd let you know that we thought Michael did a really good job with the doors at our place given some of the irregular shapes he had to deal with. By the way, I should also say that we're very pleased with all the work that Pavel and Tomas (I hope I have remembered the names right) did. The front of the house is looking great.
Jonathan - October 2009

Thanks Chad. You have a great team and everything runs incredibly smoothly!
Glenys - September 2009

Thankyou so much for making our life easier.
E & M Harvey, Drummoyne - July 2009

Thanks Chad - Michael has finished the work for us on time - appreciate. Thanks again for fitting us in.
Craig - July 2009

Chad is finalising our home beautifully. I recommend them.
Mark - July 2009 
Thanks so much for sending Adam at short notice. He did a great job.
Alison - July 2009 
Thanks again for the excellent job. Oliver did very good work and was extremely professional in his endeavours. I'm very happy with how it all worked out and I have no problems recommending Just Screw It to friends looking for building contractors in the future.
R MacCarthy, Annandale - May 2009

Chad, Przemek is just awsome. The care he took even in cleaning and little finishes to make the job perfect was something that I have witnessed very few times from a tradesman He went beyond the call of duty staying very late because of my particular needs. I thanked him of course but I thought you should know and I will be sure to use you guys again and recommend you to my friends.
Peter Brew, McMahons Point - March 2009

Just Screw It carried out extensions to our home over 6 months from March 08 to August 08. This essentially involved opening up the rear of the house to the backyard.
In detail the work involved the following:
- Reconstruction of the rear sunroom, including new sliding doors and louvre windows, plasterboard, painting and new timber flooring;
- Fitting out the existing laundry including new plumbing, tiling, plasterboard and painting;
- Removal of the existing living room wall, fireplace and matching existing floorboards where the fireplace once stood;
- Construction of a large timber deck and pergola and low retaining walls;
- Construction of a new carport and concrete driveway.
We found Chad to be responsive and his team professional, particularly his project manager / builder Terry who was assigned to our project from commencement to completion. Terry and his team had a genuine focus on quality workmanship and timely delivery, working weekends when required in order to coordinate with other trades. He is a straight talking builder and we appreciated his open discussions on progress, design changes and cost that are part and parcel of any domestic building project.
The final construction cost was at the higher end of the range Chad indicated, however design changes did occur along the way and additional work was carried out that was not in the original scope.
We would recommend Just Screw It highly and wish them all the success in the future.
Joseph Quarello - September 2008

We would have absolutely no hesitation recommending "Just Screw It". Chad was running 20 minutes late to provide our quote and not only called to let us know but enquired as to whether this was still convenient for us or whether another time would be more suitable. We required the job done quite quickly and Chad was able to accommodate this - in fact our job was started the following day. The service provided was non intrusive and efficient. And to boot the end product was was excellent. Oh yes, and the price matched what was quoted! We would challenge anyone to find this combination of features elsewhere.
J and S Hook, Balmain

As I mentioned to you, my husband and I were extremely impressed with your workers. We think that the quality of their work was very high and they were diligent and hard working. They were very pleasant to deal with, obliging and always completely willing to accommodate any requests or suggestions made by us (even down to agreeing not to do the noisier parts of the job while our two year old was asleep!). We were also impressed that, at the end of each day's work, they cleared away tools etc and always left our back garden in a very tidy condition, even when they were part way through a task.
Thanks again for the fantastic work done by your guys landscaping and repaving our courtyard.
Liz and Kevin

Just a quick note to thank you for today's work, all has been completed to a high standard and his workers were all very professional, polite and efficient, finishing the work within the quoted time.
I have already recommended you to my friends.
Julie

Just wanted to say what a pleasure it was having Just Screw It do the work on our house. The work was very well executed, on time & cost was per the estimate. I think what really sets you apart from the competition is your professionalism: from the initial contact throughout the work & to invoicing. Adam, Jacques & the others at all times were pleasant to have around & exhibited great work ethic. They even called one day to let me know that they were running 10 mins late! What a pleasure that was compared to other builders/tradesmen who vanish into the ether or need to be chased.
Emma

By way of background, we hired Just Screw It originally for a small job - replacement of a ceiling with cornice. The the team were efficient and the finish excellent that we arranged for them to complete the remainder of the renovations on our rental property. The final outcome of this property was of high standard and we were able to optimise the rent on the property.
With our situation changing, we relocated to Singapore and required our residence to be put into a rentable state. Chad managed the renovation for us, as we had already relocated to Singapore, and sent through photos to keep us aware of the stages completed. He provided honest opinion and at times talked us out of certain changes as he believed it unnecessary. He was also flexible to our needs as further issues arose that needed fixing, which he attended to without complaint or issue.
I have found Chad and his team to be honest, with a high detail to workmanship and efficient. I would highly recommend him over other builders. For note, I requested my brother to do a final inspection of our property and, given he has just completed a major renovation to his property in Birchgrove, was impressed and disappointed that I did not make him aware of Chad and his company.
Jane L F Wilson, Head of Risk and Business Support, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited

We are almost finished the work at the unit and I firstly just wanted to say thanks for the quality workmanship put into the reno! Your tradies are excellent but not only that they are easy to get on with, the are careful and considerate.
Grahm Young, Mosman

Thanks for sending Jerome and Jacques who have now finished the jobs here. They both did a great job and we are happy with everything they did.
Donna Pellorini, Dulwich Hill

"Just Screw It worked on my apartment for close to 3 months and I found Chad and his team exellent to work with. Chad is on the ball the whole time and is articulate, his company has done a great job. I have been associated with many building firms and Chad has been probably close to the best I've worked with."
Dean Fleming ...The Fleming Group of Companies

"Chad and his team provided an efficient professional package thoughout the renovation and were at all times cognizant of the time constraints I was under. A larger renovation project than I originally anticipated, they were able to meet my needs and ensured that the finished product was of a high standard in line with the budget we had discussed. I highly recommend "Just Screw It" if you want individual service and quality workmanship."
Paul Taylor

"Chad Loxsom and his team painted my house in January of this year. Since then I have passed his name on to to 5 of my friends. The "Just Screw It" team were timely, cost effective and efficient. Chad's employees were polite and courteous. I think the greatest compliment you can extend a tradesman is a referral - and I do this wholeheartedly."
Prue Gillepie, Balmain

"After receiving a leaflet in my letterbox I rang Chad from Just Screw It to get a quote for a few jobs that needed to be done. He rang back immediately and was over to quote on the job within 48 hours. After accepting the price he submitted Chad was on the job quickly and efficiently. He always turned up at the agreed time and date and his workmanship is excellent. I will definitely be calling Just Screw It again in the future."
Kathryn

"Chad and the guys finished the installation of a door way and two doors completely to my satisfaction - even cleaning up as they went. Very professional approach to dealing with me as a customer and the finish of the job"
Klaus Clemens

"We just want to thank you immensely for the work you have done on our place. It took us 2 years to contact someone (i.e you) and less than 2 days for you to finish most of the tasks on our 'to do' list! Why we waited so long remains a mystery. Your professionalism, efficiency, constant communication and sense of trust were far beyond any tradesperson we've ever had to deal with, meaning that we will be bothering you with many more jobs in the future!"
Margherita and Ben

"In late 2005 I contracted (Chad/Just Screw It) to paint the interior and exterior of my renovated home in Lilyfield. The ceilings and walls were all tongue and groove, there were large areas of Western Red Cedar windows and doors, and the majority had to be brushed. It was a large job and it was completed within the time-frame we set and with great attention to detail. It was a pleasure to deal with Chad and the job was outstanding. I have no hesitation in referring him, and would happily show potential clients his workmanship."
David Staume

"We have been extremely pleased with Chad's work. We were impressed with his professionalism throughout and are thrilled with the end result."
Caroline Hutchins

"A tradesman/handyman that is reliable and keeps you up to date. Chad and his team did a great job and was always bubbly and reliable. I will definitely use him again, and have just referred him to a friend."
Jane Wilson

"I found Chad to be professional, reliable, flexible and co-operative at all times. Chad and his employees completed the task to my requirements quickly and efficiently, they cleaned up after themselves and checked to see if I was satisfied with the work. I would highly recommend "Just Screw It" to anyone and will be using Chad again for future work."
