Who is Willem Hattingh

Your Trusted Handyman for Your Construction Job

I'm Willem Hattingh, the owner-operator behind BME Handyman & Renovation Services Perth. Based in Stoneville, I work across the Perth Hills and the wider Perth Metro area. I bring more than 20 years of building experience to every job. That runs from a single repair to a full mixed-scope property list.

When you call BME, you're not dealing with a call centre. There's no rotating crew of subcontractors either. You're dealing directly with me, the person doing the work.

My foundation is real building. I started out as a home builder in South Africa more than 20 years ago. There I completed over 50 new custom-built homes, plus countless renovations.

That's where my standard was set: doing the work properly, the first time. That kind of detail only comes from running jobs end to end for years. It's also where I learned how the small things make or break a job. The carpentry, finishes and small fixes are what decide whether the work looks right.

After establishing myself in residential building, I moved to Perth with my family. From there, I set out to broaden my experience on the commercial side. I joined Cockram Construction and worked on several substantial Perth projects. From homes and properties, to schools and hospitals. That commercial work added scale, process and site discipline. It built on a skill set already grounded in custom home building.

BME grew out of something I noticed along the way. Most property owners don't want a chain of separate tradies for one nagging list. They want one capable person who can see the whole picture. Someone who gives a clear quote and gets it sorted without the drama.

So I built an owner-led business to do exactly that. It bridges the gap between everyday handyman work and real small-construction capability.

Today, I personally handle a broad range of property work across Perth. That covers repairs, maintenance, carpentry, fencing and gates, and rental repairs. It also includes pre-sale touch-ups, furniture assembly and small renovations. I work for homeowners, landlords, property managers, agents, builders and small-business owners.

You get one experienced owner-operator who takes responsibility from quote to completion. The result is a property that looks better, works better, and finally feels handled properly.

My Expertise

Handyman & Renovation Services I Personally Handle

I've built BME around mixed-scope work. If your job spans several of the areas below, that suits me perfectly.

Small Construction & Renovations

This is where my building background does the most for you. I manage bathroom, kitchen and laundry renovations from planning through to finish. You've got one person accountable for the whole job instead of a chain of separate trades to chase.

Carpentry

Floors, doors, decks, patios and general timber work. Carpentry is one of the trades I lean on most. It's often the difference between a job that looks fine and one that looks properly finished.

Fencing & Gates

Installation and repairs for fences and gates. Practical, sturdy work, built to last rather than need a revisit next season.

Rental Repairs & Ongoing Maintenance

Fast, reliable repairs and upkeep that keep a rental functional and presentable. This reduces tenant friction and stops small issues turning into expensive ones. Ideal for landlords or property managers who can't be on site for every job.

Pre-Sale Clean-Up & Repairs

The tidy-ups, patch repairs and presentation fixes that make a property market-ready. I help you fix the things buyers notice, without blowing the budget.

General Handyman Work

Tiling, roof and garden jobs, ceiling repairs and fixture installation. These are the everyday fixes that pile up. Bring me the whole list, because handling several jobs in one visit is the point.

Bricklaying, Landscaping, Pressure Cleaning & Painting

Outdoor and finishing work that lifts how a property looks and functions. Think paving and brickwork, plus a clean-up and fresh coat that lifts the whole place.

Furniture Assembly

Flat-pack and built furniture put together properly and safely. I can also help at short notice when you need it sorted quickly.

Light Commercial & Retail Fit-Out Support

Practical fit-out and maintenance help for small businesses and retail spaces. I fit the work around your trading hours, so it doesn't get in the way.
