About me


From the blacksmith's forge to taking care of your home.

Hi, my name is Jan Štefl, and I am a reliable handyman serving Prague and the surrounding areas. I'll gladly help you with furniture assembly, home maintenance, or deep cleaning - and we can communicate easily in both Czech and English.

I spent years working by the anvil and forge as an artistic blacksmith. Working with redhot iron quickly teaches you humility - you either have an eye for detail, patience, and a steady hand, or the result is simply worth nothing. I walked away with two principles that guide me to this day.

Millimeters matter, and honest craftsmanship cannot be rushed or faked.

Today, I no longer shape iron, but I have brought that exact same approach to home maintenance and repairs.

I don't pretend to be a jack-of-all-trades who does everything from electrical work to roofing. I only do what I am truly skilled at and where I can guarantee a perfect result. That's why I like to ask clients for photos beforehand - so I can tell you upfront whether I can handle the job flawlessly, or if it would be better to call a specialist.

I pride myself on honesty, clean work, and reliability. When we agree on something, I stand by it.


How to book my service?

To guarantee a 100% result, I need to know exactly what I am getting into. I do not take on jobs blindly.

  1. Send me photos: Share photos of the area or the item that needs fixing, repairing, or assembling. You can use the form below or send them directly to my WhatsApp.                                                                                                                             
  2. Assessment: Based on the photos, I will evaluate whether I can deliver the job to the high standard I stand by. If so, I will confirm a date with you. If I know the job requires a highly specialized professional (such as an electrician), I will tell you upfront and decline the job.

Reference

The Dvořák family, Prague 4

"We needed to assemble a large wardrobe with a mirror, and we just couldn't manage it ourselves anymore. He was incredibly helpful. Not only did he assemble the wardrobe perfectly and anchor it securely to the wall to make it safe, but he also went out of his way to help us carry the heavy cardboard packaging to the bins. A very polite and hardworking young man, we highly recommend him."

Petr K.

"We needed to quickly mount binder shelves, hang whiteboards, and replace a few old fluorescent lights with LED fixtures in our new offices. The communication was lightning-fast—I sent photos of the space via WhatsApp, got a price estimate straight away, and everything was done right after the weekend. The work was clean, the price matched what was agreed, and the invoice arrived promptly. A clear choice for our company next time as well."

Martin L., Prague

"I ordered the assembly of an IKEA chest of drawers and, at the same time, a Kärcher deep cleaning of my sofa. Everything went perfectly. The chest of drawers was assembled in no time, the stains left over from a party completely disappeared from the couch after the extraction cleaning, and on top of that, he cleaned up after himself flawlessly. No time-wasting, just a fair hourly rate. Highly satisfied."
