We can either do one-off jobs like clearing gutters ourselves, or you can hire a helping hand for an hour - or a day - if you need an extra pair of hands for your house maintenance. The service is offered both to private householders, and to landlords, estate agents, hoteliers and holiday property owners.
These services are generally offered on a "You buy, we fit" basis - you provide the materials and we do the job using our tools and equipment. We do carry common sizes of nails, screws, bolts, adhesives etc. for general repairs, and can arrange to buy materials on your behalf for a specific job.
- Put up shelves and cupboards, coat-hooks, curtain poles, roller blinds etc.
- Repair wooden fixtures and fittings e.g. skirtings, architraves, soffits and bargeboards
- Ease and re-hang doors that stick
- Assemble and install flat-pack furniture
- Put down laminate flooring
- Hang pictures, mirrors or photos
- Fit draught-proofing or loft insulation
- Fit bolts, catches and security chains, or replace door locks
- Put up house names or numbers
- Minor repairs to wallpaper, plaster, concrete or tiling - making good etc.
- Clear terraces and patios
- Clear gutters, downpipes and drain grids
- Cut grass, strim weeds, trim hedges or clear rough ground
- Minor electrical and plumbing works
- We aren't professional gardeners so you probably don't want to let us loose on your prize roses!
- We can't take away rubbish for disposal at the tip - even garden waste. (Why not? Because there are strict regulations about transferring waste on a commercial basis. Yes, that even means a bag of grass clippings! It may seem ridiculous, but we could be fined £5,000 for doing this without a licence. We keep our costs low by not having to jump through all the regulatory hoops that now exist. You can read about the regulations on this page if you really want to know.)
