Handyman Services
The Handyman Who Actually Shows Up — And Gets It Done Right
From a wobbly shelf to a full bathroom refit, Craig handles the jobs other tradesmen won't touch. No call centres, no excuses — just 20+ years of reliable, hands-on service across Ivybridge, Plymouth, and beyond.
Why Ivybridge Trusts Craig With Their Homes
Finding a reliable handyman in Devon can feel like a gamble. You call three tradesmen, one doesn't answer, one gives a vague quote, and the third never shows up. Craig Whetlor built SCR Property Services to be the opposite of that experience — and after two decades, the reputation speaks for itself.
Every job is handled personally by Craig. No subcontractors, no apprentices left unsupervised, no corners cut. Whether it's a two-hour shelf installation or a week-long property renovation, you get the same tradesman from start to finish. That consistency is what brings homeowners back year after year.
Craig is fully insured and takes pride in leaving every property cleaner than he found it. He works seven days a week, responds within the same working day, and quotes honestly — the price you're given is the price you pay. No call-out fees, no hidden extras, no surprises on the invoice.
What's Included
Complete Handyman Services Under One Roof
Whatever your property needs, Craig has the tools, skills, and experience to handle it. Here's what homeowners across Devon and Cornwall rely on him for:
Sound Familiar?
Tired of Unreliable Tradesmen?
No-shows and broken promises
You've booked time off work, cleared the room, and the tradesman doesn't show. No call, no apology. With Craig, the appointment is the appointment — he turns up when he says he will.
Mystery quotes and hidden charges
A 'quick look' turns into a vague estimate, then the final bill is double what you expected. Craig gives clear, written quotes before any work begins. What he quotes is what you pay.
Jobs left half-finished
The grouting's patchy, the shelf is wonky, and the tradesman has moved on to someone else's job. Craig doesn't leave until the work meets his standard — and his standard is high.
Too small for the big firms
Large companies won't come out for a leaky tap or a door that sticks. Craig handles every job with the same professionalism, whether it takes thirty minutes or three days.

More Than Just a Handyman — A Property Partner
Over the past twenty years, Craig has worked on hundreds of properties across Devon and Cornwall. From Victorian terraces in Plymouth to modern new-builds in Ivybridge, he's seen every kind of property challenge — and solved it. That breadth of experience means faster diagnoses, better solutions, and fewer callbacks.
What sets Craig apart isn't just technical skill — it's the way he treats people's homes. He understands that you're not just hiring someone to fix a shelf. You're inviting someone into your space, your routine, your life. That's why he turns up on time, communicates clearly, works quietly and efficiently, and leaves your home as he found it — only better.
Many of Craig's clients have been using his services for years. They call him for everything from emergency repairs to planned renovations, and they recommend him to friends and neighbours. That kind of loyalty isn't bought with advertising — it's earned through consistent, reliable, high-quality work.
Whether you're in Ivybridge, Plympton, Plymouth, Saltash, Southway, Plymstock, or anywhere across South Hams, Craig can be with you — often the same day you call. He covers a wide area but never overcommits, ensuring every client gets the attention they deserve.
If you've been putting off that job because you can't find the right person, give Craig a call. No job is too small, and there's never any obligation. Just honest advice from a tradesman who genuinely cares about getting it right.
