"Mike and Lian did an outstanding job repairing some sections of rotting wood and repainting window frames on our bungalow. To say I was impressed would be an understatement. The workmanship was of the highest quality and to my eyes, faultless.

I really appreciated the excellent communication and conversation, Mike is extremely knowledgeable about old homes. As someone who knows next to nothing about DIY and how to physically carry out any form of home maintenance, his eye for detail and explanations along the way were very welcome.

Mike was extremely obliging in dealing with a bunch of ad hoc touch up jobs while he was here (small sections of painting and touch ups not part of the quote), and even took the time to take my fiance in his van to pick up some wood for his woodworking course! We will definitely be using Mike (and Lian) for future maintenance work, they are a dream team. Thank you, Mike and Lian!"

"I had some repair work done on front of my garage and so needed the repairs to be painted. my neighbour was having his house painted by Mike Ellis from Evolution Property Maintenance so I contacted Mike Ellis and asked him to come over and give me a quote. He came round, evaluated the job and gave me a very reasonable quote. I then asked him to quote on doing the side of the garage facing the garden as well. Might as well have the garage looking good. He quoted and I accepted.
He started the job in February and came the day he said he would. Mike had an assistant, DJ. They both worked quietly and efficiently. Mike communicated with me every day to tell me what he had done and what was going to do that day. That was very reassuring.
As Mike and DJ finished the front and moved to the side, Mike discovers some rot and suggested that he could fix them before painting over which he did very satisfactorily.
We have a 1912 villa and the front of the villa had moved slightly and cracks had appeared on the corners and the weatherboards. I asked Mike if he could fix them as well. Mike fixed and painted them brilliantly. He also walked around the house and identified a few other spots he could attend to and did.
all in all Mike did a fantastic job at a very reasonable price. When Mike and DJ left the property it was spick and span, no mess.
I have no hesitation in highly recommending Mike Ellis from Evolution Property Maintenance.
As I mentioned, Mike also painted my neighbour's house and he did an excellent job there too."

"Our review comes with a bit of a story, so here we go.
My wife and I moved into our new (first) home last week. Prior to moving in we had our pre-settlement inspection of the property where we found the internal walls in a bit of an untidy state - there were holes from hanging pictures and discoloration. Our selling agent suggested that we have the entire living area replastered and painted prior to our moving day - the very next day no less! Where were we going to find someone so late in the piece? And surely it will cost an arm and a leg? Our agent suggested Mike - he had done work on his behalf on a number of occasions. I called Mike and he was more than happy to help us out. I first met Mike on the day we settled on the property - he was plastering and priming the internal walls of our new living room while the vendor was still moving out! To ensure that the job would be finished before we actually moved into the property, Mike got up first thing the following morning to complete the job. The result was amazing and it really made our first move!
Mike is one of the friendliest, most accommodating, professional guys we've met, and couldn't recommend him highly enough. He takes pride in what he does and it clearly shows in his work. We've already lined him up to do the rest of the house. Cheers Mike!"

"We first engaged Mike for a high end (and somewhat difficult) residential interior re-paint. He did such a good job, we ended up keeping him busy on a number of projects for at least two years!

Work included residential and commercial, interior and exterior, repair work and repaints. Most of the jobs would be described as “high end”, and some were extremely tricky involving height work, scheduling challenges, and old wood joinery. A lot of the work undertaken was outside the scope of what a “traditional painter” would be willing to undertake (e.g. joinery repairs, carpentry, arranging scaffolding, and overseeing other trades) - saving us considerable time and money.

Mike is honest, extremely hard working, reliable, patient, and adaptable. His quality of work and attention to detail is outstanding. He was always a pleasure to deal with and will be our first choice for future work."
