Read about cleaning
Selling your home? Focus on improvements that add value
Big bathroom and kitchen projects right before a sale rarely pay off. What buyers notice is light, clean surfaces, floors without visible damage and a kitchen that looks new. These are the improvements that add the most value.
-
Painting walls, ceilings and trim
Large surfaces, big effect. We paint in light, neutral colours that suit most buyers, and fill holes and cracks first.
-
Parquet and floors
New parquet or laminate where the floor is worn or differs from room to room, with new skirting and threshold strips.
-
Kitchen: new fronts only
If the cabinet carcasses are in good shape, we only replace the fronts and handles. The kitchen looks new for a fraction of the price of a new one.
-
Small faults and unfinished jobs
Missing trim, sagging doors, loose handles. The things buyers notice at a viewing.
About us
Handy Dandy is a small company in Oslo. That means you talk to the same person from the site visit until the job is done.
Daniel came to Oslo in 2010 from a small town outside Wrocław. Before that, he worked as a carpenter in Ireland, where he learned the trade from the ground up. In Oslo he joined his uncle's company, and over the years that followed he built up solid experience with everything from carpentry to larger renovations.
In 2026 he started Handy Dandy. The goal is simple: good craftsmanship, clear quotes and work he can be proud of.
