I use the appropriate tools and take care with panels, hinges, fixings, drawers and runners to achieve a secure, level finish. IKEA PAX wardrobes and other complex storage systems can also be assembled, adjusted and secured where suitable.

I provide a reliable odd job service for smaller household tasks, typically taking an hour or less. I can fit blinds and curtain rails, hang doors and shelving, mount TVs, change light fittings, sockets and switches, and fit bathroom accessories. I also undertake minor repairs, small carpentry jobs, key safe installation, gutter clearing and a range of other practical household tasks.

My lawn mowing service covers routine and one-off grass cutting for residential properties, rental homes and businesses.

Alan put up a new curtain rail for me really quickly and he also hung the curtains for me. He turned up exactly when he said he would which I really appreciated also.

We've used Andy's services twice now, for putting up shelves and installing a fireplace mantel. Both were done with precision. Andy ensured he knew what we required and did a great job start to finish. Tidy, professional and very friendly.

Alan has fixed a broken window handle on my double glazing, applied a fresh waterproof seal around the edge of my bath and also fixed a problem with my toilet which was failing to flush properly. All of the jobs were completed efficiently and swiftly and I have been delighted with the results. I had tried for some time to get someone to fix the seal around the bath but, everyone I asked before Alan said the job was too small. Alan is very friendly, dependable and reliable... I will be on the 'phone with no hesitation when next I need help!

Alan fixed the worktops in my kitchen the other day. He did a great job applying new edging strips and also gave me advice on alternatives to use. He has helped me numerous times with other repairs over the last few years and has always been extremely skilled, helpful and very reasonably priced.
