Shelf Installation Lymington

When just recently asked what was the most common job he was asked to do, an odd project man in Lymington advised me that it was fixing up shelves. I suppose it makes sense really, as every home in Lymington probably has shelving in various locations. Needless to say, putting up a shelf is a chore that your everyday homeowner might be able to undertake for themselves. But, whether or not they all have the time or the tools to take on this kind of task is another subject, and for most people it seems easier to just call on the local handyman. An additional advantage of calling on a specialist is that you know the job will be done accurately, and the shelves won't fall down after a couple of months. Naturally, it's not just residential properties in Lymington that need shelving, shops and business premises also need different kinds of racking and shelving for both displaying and storing their merchandise.

A Handyman for Your Garden

Your local odd job man will most likely be just as used to doing stuff in the garden as he is indoors. In fact there are quite often more jobs to be done in the garden than there are indoors. Obtaining a handyman who will do actual gardening tasks like cutting hedges and mowing lawns is not uncommon. Most have a tendency to avoid this kind of thing but will still handle projects like shed assembly or hard landscaping.

Painting & Decorating Lymington

Smaller one-off painting/decorating tasks will also be offered by the majority of odd job men in Lymington.

Whilst you might be in need of a cheaper service, you'll still want this work to be done correctly, so ask if you can see some examples (images) of comparable work that they've done for other clients. This may be available as photographs on a phone or pictures published on Facebook, Instagram, or another social media site.

Plaster and Plasterboard Patching Lymington

Minor damage to plasterboard and plaster quite often occurs in Lymington properties, and rather than bringing in a fully fledged plasterer you might be able to get an odd job man to help with this. It is not generally too difficult to repair small patches of damaged plaster and because decent plasterers are normally up to their eyes in work, they may not want to quote for these little jobs. A handyman is usually less costly than a plasterer, but will still be perfectly able to do a decent job on such modest repairs.

Flat Pack Assembly

Of the various tasks that odd job men in Lymington do on a regular basis, the assembly of flat packed furniture is one of the most common. An astounding array of items arrive in the flat pack format in these modern times and they all have to be assembled. We've all undergone the exercise of unpackaging this stuff and discovering there are pieces missing. Your local handyman will definitely be able to help and would have done this all too often in the course of his work.
