Handyman Service From Age UK

It is now easy to book in a handyman or gardening service by calling the registered charity Age UK. All tradesmen signed up with Age UK are police checked (DBS) to put your mind at ease. You must not assume that because it is a charitable organization, the handyman service will be cost-free, because it isn't, the current rate (2020) is £20 per hour. The handyman then has to pay a portion of this money back to the charity.

Painting & Decorating Edlesborough

For your smaller jobs, the majority of Edlesborough odd job men will offer basic painting and decorating services. Obviously, an established painter/decorator is the preferred option if for example, you need to decorate your whole house, but for minor decorating work a handyman should be able to help you, and at less cost. Things such as painting woodwork (architraves, skirting boards and dado rails), small wallpapering assignments, plaster patching, door painting (glossing or varnishing) and the filling of cracks and blemishes, are among the decorating tasks that you can reasonably expect a handyman in Edlesborough to accomplish.

Putting up Shelves Edlesborough

When I asked an odd job man in Edlesborough a couple of months ago what was the most commonplace job that he was asked to do, he replied "putting up shelves". I suppose it isn't surprising really, seeing as every home in Edlesborough most likely has shelves in various locations. Needless to say, putting up a shelf is something that your average householder may be able to achieve on their own. But, not everyone has got the inclination or the tools to undertake this, and would prefer to bring in a handyman or carpenter to do the job. Another benefit of hiring a specialist is that you know the job is going to be done effectively, and the shelving won't give way after a couple of weeks. Naturally, shelves are necessary in business premises and shops in Edlesborough, as well as residential properties, consequently business owners might also require this service.
