228 Changi Road, Singapore
One number
for most of it.
Aircon servicing, household plumbing, doors that stick, floors that need taking back. Customers keep calling Rana for jobs that have nothing to do with each other, which is the whole idea.

Why one number matters
Most small jobs are too small to go looking for a specialist.
The list grows
A door that drags, an aircon that smells, a tap that drips. Each one is small on its own, which is exactly why they wait.
Three trades, three waits
A specialist per job means starting again each time with someone who has never seen your place.
Or one person who already knows the place
One customer went from aircon to household plumbing with the same tradesman and called him his go-to handyman by the third visit.
Four of the five reviews name Rana. Two of them mention it was not the first job. That is the only recommendation that really counts in this trade: someone who called back.

Two of them mention it was not the first time.
Really happy with the service from Rana. He is friendly, efficient and did a great job cleaning and checking my aircon conditions. He also gave useful advice how to maintain my aircon. Will definitely use him again and again.
3rd time getting services from Rana. From aircon to household plumbing. Sincere person, and does the job well. My go-to handy man. Fully recommended.
When you see Rana handling the task of handyman work, you know that his service is beyond that task. He does it with his professionalism. Glad to have my sliding door fixed which seems impossible for me to understand. Definitely using him for future work.
Inside a sliding door: the rollers, and the grit around them.
One job in particular
The door was not the problem. It rarely is.
A sliding door that has got heavy is almost never the door. It is the rollers underneath it and the track they run in, both of which pack with grit over the years until the wheels stop turning and start dragging.
That is what the photo shows: the stile opened up, the rollers exposed, the fixing rusted. It is a fiddly job and an unglamorous one, and it is the sort of thing that sits on a list for a year.

How a job goes
Six things the reviews say without being asked.
01
The same person keeps coming back
One customer was on his third job with Rana, having started with aircon and moved on to household plumbing. Another wrote that it was not her first time either.
02
You get told how to keep it right
After servicing an aircon, one customer got advice on maintaining it herself between visits. That is the opposite of a business model built on repeat faults.
03
Turns up when he says
Two separate reviews mention it plainly: always on time to the site, and very responsive.
04
The jobs have nothing in common
Aircon, plumbing, a sliding door, a timber floor, a cassette unit in a restaurant. One person who gets called back for unrelated work.
05
Explained, not just fixed
A customer described his sliding door as impossible for him to understand, and wrote that the service went beyond the task itself.
06
Listed as available around the clock
The Google listing is set to 24 hours, seven days. Worth knowing if something goes wrong at an awkward time, though it is worth calling to check.
The range
Aircon through to floors.
- Aircon servicing
- Cleaning and checking the condition of the units, plus advice on keeping them right between visits.
- Household plumbing
- One customer went from aircon to plumbing with the same tradesman, which is the point of a handyman.
- Door repairs
- Including sliding doors, where the fault is usually in the rollers and the track rather than the door.
- Timber floor sandingfrom the job photos
- Shown in the job photos: a floor taken back with a rotary sander.
- Ceiling cassette airconfrom the job photos
- Shown in the job photos: a cassette unit being worked on in a shophouse restaurant.
If your job is not on this list it is still worth asking. The reviews cover three unrelated trades between them.
Taking a timber floor back, one section at a time.
On what it costs
It depends entirely on the job, and none of the reviews quote a figure, so there is nothing honest to print here. Send a description and a photo on WhatsApp and you will get an answer.

Before you call
The questions people actually ask.
Yes, and that is most of the point. Reviews cover aircon servicing, household plumbing and a sliding door repair, and the job photos also show timber floor sanding and a ceiling cassette unit in a shophouse restaurant.

That is how the Google listing is set. It is a one-person trade, so for an odd hour it is worth calling to check rather than assuming either way.
