Fraud. Took money for work and no work done. Not picking up calls or replying to texts. Fraudsters

Hello, I really, really don't recommend contacting this company headed by Konstantins Sharipovs. These are scammers who cheat workers by not paying wages and clients, who are promised a lot, but do not fulfill their obligations. IF YOU APPRECIATE YOURSELF AND YOUR TIME, PLEASE BYPASS THIS COMPANY. IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO DELIVER A MINUS - 100, THIS COOPERATION WOULD DESERVE IT !!!
SCAM !!!The rating that this company has knocked out for itself is dummy people and organizations - Steep Grup is one of Konstantin's companies. POSITIVE CUSTOMER REVIEWS IS A DECEPTION !!!
STAMMERS!!!

Just learnt about Golden Hands Handyman in UK. Best illustrated by mess of today. My text to company - as yet unanswered.
"Thank you. Your guy has simply walked off the job. I told you, and sent you, a list of all the materials I'd bought for the shed roofing in north Herts. I told you I wouldn't get the construction timber and its fixings as I did not know what to get. You said that was fine, everything else would be organised. Today your man, D turned up in his saloon car without timber. I asked if a lorry with timber would be deilvering. He nodded. Then it turned out you had not organised this.
So I said I would guide D to a timber yard myself in my car. At the yard he chose some timber then changed his mind to order other widths. He had two bills then. I said he had deal with it, get the right bill not just tell me to pay his calculated sum! Then he had no way to transport the long timber - longer than my Volvo estate! He did not organise delivery. This timber had already been selected by the yard and placed next to our cars!
In all, your contracted person was unprepared and seemed hesitant even about the timber choice. I had to even remind him to get screws, and he seemed not to know that slates were called slates. You did not answer my texts yesterday and on some other days, did not confirm his arrival today and did not follow up the one thing left to do - the timber provision. It's wasted my time hugely! D walked off without a glance at me as I became exasperated with the mess. He and you should realise that if you let customers down so drastically like this they are not going to be pleased! To cap it all, then uou told me you were only employed taking calls - where before you seemed to imply it was your experienced company. Then you said your supervisor would call me within 10 minutes, and, so far, I have not had a call back.
Given my unanswered texts before (save the one you sent a couple of days ago) I will understand that you probably will not respond. But your company has left me high and dry (means abandoned) with roof materials stuck in my car and a leaking shed roof. Thanks.
As a footnote: while at the timber yard D said "the customer pays everything", meaning he expected me to pay for everything (timber and surplus of screws etc) right there. Yet you texted me last Thursday to say additional materials - which I warned you of - would be bought by Golden Hands then I would get the receipt. Obviously at the end of the job! I cannot think of any customers who would not expect on the agreed day of construction a truck arriving with the materials (the ones I told you I would not be getting myself!) I have been as clear as possible in my communication with you - listing the materials I purchased and repeating where I got no answer.

Stay away from this company. the worst day every. the owner of this company has scammed me. he is lying and not paying his workers and customers are having to pay DOUBLE!!! He owes me money and has been hiding for 2 months. Please BE AWARE OF THIS SCAMMER. also told me not to mess with Russians on our last phonemail. has now been reported to police for malicious communication and more. PLEASE STAY AWAY

Be aware of this company! They are scammers. It is the 3rd Konstantins fraud "company". He is lying and not paying money for his workers. As a a customer I was asked to pay money in advance. Unfortunately no job has been done, no money was refunded. Absolutely unacceptable behaviour. I reported this person to legal agencies and highly recommend to do the same for other victims. This person must to be punished.

Do no business with this company, because you will have big problems. I worked for them for a short time and I know what corrupt system the company works with. They give the “cheapest” price, so the clients can sign the contract. Then they take a deposit. This company works with just with 4 people - cowboys who do not have any understanding in building works. They tell everyone they “work with 300 people”. No one, nor builder or client, has ever seen this company men. Usually he hires random handymen for 1-2 weeks and then doesn’t pay them. Then he hires new men, does not pay and then the cycle continues. He takes money from clients and never pays the workers. This is why he is scared to show his identity while constantly changing business telephone number and services information. All their good reviews must be fake. The men is an IT guy who has no knowledge in building works. As a verified client I know what they do to hundreds of people. He is being investigated by relevant bodies. Save your money and anger.

I can’t fault what was done for me.
Very professional.
Very attentive

Volodymyr completed task at very high quality, and there were few missing tiny elements (screws) of the furniture and Volodymyr was able to resolve the issue using his own materials.

Absolute crook - Takes money for materials and work and just keeps the money.

Also uses a company front of Golden Hands Handyman Limited

DO NOT give him money up front and do not use him for anything.

If anyone knows where he is please post!

As he is still actively scamming.

Avoid at all costs. I had an engineer sent out to me who charged me £90 for an hr and didnt even fix the problem. When i phoned the office i was abused by somebody called konstantin and then analaysia a woman also working in the office. Please avoid this cowboy subcontractor company.

Brilliant service from start to finish.engineer was polite and friendly he cleaned up when job was done in spite of me saying not to as I was would be getting my own vacuum cleaner out.Owner of company rang to thank me for using his company and to check everything had been properly done Would use company again definitely recommend to others.

Excellent job.
Done within couple of hours of task being accepted.

Thank you guys!

Good advice, good job, and very helpful.

Thanks a lot for fixing toilet issue. I would recommend to all who needs plumbing service. Its 5 star service .”

Like many people who have used this company, initially the service was okay but as time went on, we had been given fale promises from konistantin himself for materials and beams he has taken 27k and not done nothing !!!! stay away well away unless you want to lose money

I initially wrote a good review of this company but that has changed.
This company used to be amazing.
However now, none of the handymen or cleaners show up on time and you just get ignored! They can not own up to any mistakes so they just ignore you.
This company holds two sets of keys for me and they are refusing to give them back. I have had to report the poor misconduct to the trading standards. I have never done this before and it is a very worrying thing for me to do.
I have used this company over 50 times and it has been a disappointing service to last 10 or so bookings. Never showing up on time or completing the full job.
They are being very awful and I would highly suggest never using this company.

Hired these guys to make some repairs in the bathroom.
Initially all looked good, but had to ask for a return visit as the mastic around the bath was terrible.
The second visit did a better job.
After a couple of months a leak appeared and i discovered that the mastic behind the taps was not good and letting water through.
This caused damage to the apartment below.
The company does not respond to messages or answer the telephone.

THIS IS A SCAM SERVICE

DONT RECOMMEND! I keep getting silent and concerning calls from this company. Since I posted this my earlier review. Leave me alone.

AVOID THESE COWBOYS AT ALL COSTS!

Doubt Konstantins Saripovs will respond to this review.

I paid for work and he simply took the money and NEVER sent the carpenters and has been avoiding me my calls, emails ever since.

I had to pay for someone else to come in and re do the terrible work he did badly. Very bad experience.

Please please refund my money.

I wish I could upload pictures here.
