We're a general handyman service that turns its hand to things. We're not specialist installers.

Most of what people call out a handyman for is time and a decent pair of hands. That is what you are booking: a handyman for the hours you choose, working through your list.

£60 an hour including VAT, two hour minimum. How booking works

  • Repairs, adjustments and replacements on what is already there

  • Small jobs batched into one visit

Take this to a specialist

  • Work that needs a certificate or sign-off
  • Structural work, and anything notifiable under building regulations
  • Manufacturer-warranty installs that only an approved installer can carry out

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is recycling confusing?

Rules keep changing. What goes where varies by council. Symbols are tiny. We sort through what you've got and set up a simple system you can follow.

Do you take recycling out?

Yes - we can sort it and put bins out on collection day. Or set up a system so you know what goes where. Whatever helps most.

What about things that don't go in bins?

Batteries, electronics, textiles - we can explain what goes where or take items to the right places for you. Nothing complicated.

Can you set up a sorting system?

Absolutely - labelled containers or bags for different materials. Put paper here, plastic there, cans in this one. Simple and clear.
