Sam the handyman working in Exeter

Four focused hours to work through multiple small jobs and repairs. More efficient than booking separate visits for each task, and you only pay one call-out. Perfect for those growing maintenance lists that never quite get sorted.

Most homes accumulate 3-5 jobs that individually aren't urgent but collectively are annoying. A half day lets us tackle them all in one visit, working efficiently while we're there instead of spreading it across multiple appointments.

What to Expect

1. Start & List Review We arrive at the agreed time, go through your list of jobs together, confirm priorities and any specific requirements, and check materials are ready. We plan the order to work efficiently.

2. Focused Work Session We work through jobs systematically, keep you updated as we complete each task, ask about any decisions needed, and manage time to tackle the highest priorities first.

3. Completion & Handover We show you all completed work, discuss any jobs that need follow-up or couldn't be finished, clean up thoroughly, and leave you with a clear space and a shorter list.

🔧 DIY Tips

Fancy tackling your own list? Here's what to know:

  • Time estimation: Jobs always take longer than expected - factor in setup, cleanup, problem-solving time
  • Have materials ready: Nothing wastes time like realising you need a different screw size halfway through
  • Start with easy wins: Knock out quick jobs first for momentum, not necessarily logical order
  • Don't mix incompatible tasks: Wet painting and dusty drilling don't go well together
  • Know your limits: Some jobs need specific tools or skills - persisting wastes hours

If you'd rather spend 4 hours doing something else while your list gets handled, 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.
