When David Roake first picked up his tools to renovate his family home five years ago, he didn’t foresee it sparking a new business venture. 

What started as a hands-on project evolved into MM Handy Man, a thriving business known for its attention to detail and the pride it takes in every job. Today, MM Handy Man stands as one of the top-rated businesses on ServiceSeeking.com.au.

David’s journey into the handyman industry wasn’t driven by a desire to turn a profit, but rather by his love for transforming ideas into reality. As he puts it, “We work on all projects as if it were our own home.” From small repairs to extensive renovations, David and his team treat each job with the same level of care, making sure it’s done right before they leave.

A Business Built on Quality and Connection

MM Handy Man’s work ethos centres on quality service and a friendly attitude. David has found that these two elements, combined with the extensive platform that ServiceSeeking provides, are key to his business growth. 

“ServiceSeeking got us started and now provides a steady increase in clients,” he shares. New clients find MM Handy Man through our platform, and the business consistently gains referrals from satisfied customers who appreciate David’s commitment to excellence.

"ServiceSeeking is not only affordable," David says, "but it also offers many chances to quote and grow."

Lessons and Motivation Along the Way

Every business journey has its challenges, and David’s hasn’t been without its own. However, he’s learned that setbacks are often opportunities in disguise. One lesson he recalls: “Take the time to read instructions well. It can save a lot of time and heartache.” 

David’s faith is also a significant motivator, helping him persevere through challenging times. His philosophy? Treat every day as a new opportunity to learn and grow, both personally and professionally.

Balancing work and family is another cornerstone of his approach. “I made it my life rule to never work on Sundays. Family, church, and rest must come first,” he explains. This balance ensures that David can give his best to his clients, while also enjoying quality time with his loved ones.

Looking to the Future

With an eye on growth, David envisions MM Handy Man expanding to include more employees and advanced tools to work smarter, not just harder. His long-term goal is to continue learning, delivering high-quality service, and connecting with people in the industry who make each job a unique experience. 

For David, success is best measured by the positive feedback he receives from his clients—a testament to his commitment to both quality and client satisfaction.

MM Handy Man is a business that lives up to its promises, consistently delivering on quality, affordability, and integrity. With faith and ServiceSeeking as his cornerstones, David Roake is building a legacy, one satisfied client at a time.
