Chris Rickaby started his handyman business from his home in London in 2005. With a passion for creating, designing and building beautiful things, Chris took his many skills in horticulture, craftsmanship, and practical home maintenance and repair, and fused them together to offer expert workmanship to his many satified customers. He began to offer an outstanding service in home additions, custom kitchens, interior remodeling, home repairs, garden design, bespoke carpentry, landscaping and so much more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His vision, at that time, was to one day to find a great property to renovate for his family.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In early 2018, Chris’s dream to move back to his first love and home of his birth Scotland, became a reality. He and his family bought a wonderful old Scottish croft and began extensive renovations. Very quickly it became clear that it was time to offer his skills out again to the local community by launching his company, HIGHLAND PROPERTY CARE.<\/p>\n

Chris says, ” My most rewarding moments come from bringing my clients\u2019 dreams to life. The biggest compliment is when a client tells us they love their new space.\u00a0 That makes all the time and hard work completely worthwhile.”<\/span><\/p>\n
