The jobs on your list that never quite get done

Shelves, flat-pack, fence panels, dripping taps, overgrown borders. One person, hourly or half-day, and you know the price before I start.

Covering Dunstable, Houghton Regis and Caddington too.

Prices on this demo are samples. A real handyman sets their own.

Odd jobs, done properly, in one visit where I can

What it costs, and who turns up

You are letting a stranger into your house. Here is who knocks, what it costs, and what I will not touch.

One person, and it is the same person every time

You are not booking a company that sends whoever is free. The person who quoted the job is the person who does it, so you are never explaining it twice on the doorstep.

What it costs, before I knock

Most jobs are charged by time. Anything materials-heavy gets a written figure first. Prices on this demo are samples.

  • £35 an hour, minimum one hour
  • £130 for a half day of up to four hours
  • Materials at cost, receipts handed over
  • No call-out fee and no charge for quoting

Insured, and clear about what I do not do

Public liability insured. Gas work goes to a Gas Safe engineer and notifiable electrics go to a registered electrician, every time. You want to hear that from a tradesman before he starts, not after.

How it works

  1. 1

    Send a photo

    A photo of the job tells me more than a paragraph. Text it or use the form.

  2. 2

    Get a price and a slot

    Hourly, half day, or a written figure if materials are involved. Same working day answer.

  3. 3

    I turn up and do it

    On the day I said, in the window I said. Waste goes with me unless you want it kept.

Chisels, screwdrivers, pliers and saws hanging on a wooden rack on a workshop wall.

Common questions

Is there a minimum charge?

One hour. If the job takes twenty minutes I will usually ask if there is anything else on the list while I am there, because you have paid for the hour either way.

Do you do small jobs?

Small jobs are most of the work. One shelf is a job. Nobody needs to apologise for the size of it.

How soon can you come?

Most jobs the same week. If it is a leak or a door that will not lock, say so and I will get there sooner.

Do you supply materials?

Yes, at what they cost me, and you get the receipt. If you have already bought them, that is fine too.

Can you come in the evening or at a weekend?

Saturdays yes, at the same rate. Evenings only for something that will not wait until morning.

What will you not take on?

Gas work of any kind, and electrical work that has to be notified. Both need someone registered, and I will say so rather than have a go.

Got a list on the fridge?

Send a photo of the worst one and I will give you a price today.
