  • Odd jobs

    10Verified Review

    John replied to my initial query very quickly and provided detailed information on his rates. He was very punctual and reliable, he didn't waste any time and got straight onto the odd jobs I needed doing (putting blinds up, changing a door to open the other side of the door frame, amending a curtain pole bracket and advising on shelves for a cupboard). He was very polite, trustworthy and a big bonus was that he cleaned up any mess made! I'll definitely contact John again in the future and highly recommend him!

  • Wall lights

    John put up some new wall lights for us, replacing the old fittings. He communicated promptly by email and arrived at the agreed time. We are very happy with his work and attention to detail.

  • Fitting or painting of kitchen cabinets

  • Putting up shelves

But let's be honest, we all have our LIMITATIONS! - I do not do Gas work, plastering, wall-papering, large-scale porcelain or marble tiling work, or routed kitchen worktop joints. I do not do waste removal, and I am not a 'man with a van for hire.'
