Here are some examples of the handyman work my clients have asked me to help with. I have the experience to bring to resolve virtually all your home projects. If you need a door fitting, shelves making or fitting, pictures and mirrors hanging, I can certainly help with all these and more. Get in touch – let’s get things sorted out.
Stair replacement
A client wanted her stairs repairing, so I was able replace the newel post and fitted a new handrail and spindles. If you want to see more examples of my woodwork/carpentry projects, click here.
New splashbacks
Here I fitted for a client some splash back panels as well as some rustic scaffold board shelving. This high gloss finish needed very careful transportation and marking out for the cut-outs around the various outlets. Overall a challenging but satisfying project.
On my best behaviour.
I had to be on my best behaviour here, the client had left her site manager to keep an eye on me…. (He was VERY diligent!! )
Got to love a before and after….
A quick job here, following a boiler leak, the client asked for some boxing in to cover over a bit of a mess under the kitchen unit.
More woodwork projects
A regular client had a space in her pantry that was begging for better use. We agreed that access was more important than maximising storage, so as a compromise, I built these wrap around shelves to make the most of the space but still allow access into those far corners.
A commercial handyman job
A commercial client wanted a series of frameless picture holders laid out on a busy corridor to be used as a hall of fame for their team. As you can see from the picture this required some very careful laying out. I had to get the spacings correct, then quite a few holes accurately drilled to take the frame fittings. After much masking tape, levels, tape measures and thought, the holes were drilled and frames fitted. I was really pleased with the outcome as was the client, this got me more handyman work at a later date, so it always pays to take the time to get it right…..
And finally, got to love the sheer variety of the work!
This is one of my all time favourite of handyman work (although at the time it nearly got away from me). A client rang to say, could I drill a hole in some lids? I thought, well how hard can that be? Hmmmm, he then said, I have 4200 lids that need a 20mm hole in the centre, how long would it take me? As you can imagine, I had no idea whatsoever! But we agreed on the price and a date for me to collect them. When I turned up to collect them, I nearly fainted when I saw the pile! Once I got them home, I tried out some of my prepared ideas. The first attempt smashed the lid into a million pieces. However things quickly evolved then it was a case of get comfortable, turn up the radio and knock it out. Needless to say the client was pleased with the outcome and I had a story that makes me laugh every time…..
