Book a full 8-hour handyman day to work through your maintenance list efficiently. Better value than multiple separate visits, and we can tackle a variety of different jobs in one go. Bring your list, we'll bring the tools and get it done.
Most homes have a list of jobs that need doing. Booking separate appointments for each one wastes time and costs more in call-out charges. A full day lets us work through multiple tasks efficiently while we're there.

What to Expect
1. Morning Start & Planning We arrive at the agreed time (usually 8-9am), review your complete list of jobs, discuss priorities and any specific requirements, and identify what materials are needed. We plan the day to work efficiently.
2. Systematic Work Through The Day We work through jobs methodically, keep you updated on progress, ask questions if we find issues, and manage time to get the most done. We clean up as we go so there's no mess building up.
3. End of Day Review We show you all completed work, discuss any jobs that couldn't be finished and why, provide recommendations for anything that needs specialist attention, and clean up thoroughly. You'll get a breakdown of what was done.
🔧 DIY Tips
Want to tackle your own list? Here's the reality:
- Plan the order: Do messy jobs first (drilling, sawing), clean jobs last - don't paint then drill holes
- Gather materials first: Nothing kills momentum like three trips to the hardware shop
- Group similar tasks: Do all the drilling together, all the assembly together - saves changing tools constantly
- Be realistic about time: Jobs take longer than you think, especially if you're learning as you go
- Know when to stop: Some jobs need proper skills or tools - attempting them wastes time and can make things worse
If your list has been growing for months and you'd rather have it done properly in a day, that's what we're here for.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
Value for money: £410 for 8 hours is £51.25/hour average. Normal rates are £60 first hour, £50 after. For a full day, you save £50.
Materials: Not included in the day rate. We can collect materials (time used from the day) or work with what you've bought. Most customers spend £50-150 on materials.
Timing: 8 hours is actual working time. We aim for 8am-5pm with a lunch break, adjusting for your schedule.
Specialist work: Anything requiring qualified electrician, Gas Safe engineer, or structural work isn't covered. We'll identify these jobs and can recommend specialists.
Preparation: Have your list ready, materials gathered if you're supplying them, and clear access to all work areas. The better prepared, the more we get done.
Flexibility: If we finish early and you have additional jobs, we can start them. If we run out of time, we can book another session to complete.
Best for: Property maintenance catchup, pre-sale preparation, post-move jobs, seasonal maintenance, or just clearing that growing list.
