Used to do my own clearance, but so much easier to get Paul to do it. Great job - thanks again!

Hello, I've done a fair amount of work on this forum. I have a lwb vw transporter & ask for ?40 for small jobs, or ?25 per hour. Paul 07782371990

Curious... What kind of heating / boiler do you have, out of interest?

Hiya, I love fixing things for people. Drop it over & I will have a look for you. If I can't fix it, my dad almost certainly can! Paul 07782371990

How many rooms? I can get you a good price on this, via some people I do work with. Regards Paul 07782371990

I've spoken with the guys at a local cabinet workshop about this. It's all in the prep. If you get the surfaces nice and smooth & dust free & apply correctly thinned paint, that has been well mixed and / or put through a strainer, then you will likely get a better result with good quality rollers - especially if you aren't skilled in spraying, as you will likely get some sagging if you linger too long, on any spot. Time is on your side, so a light sanding between coats is also an option.

Hi Tolly, I would be happy to help you out with this. I can quote you for wardrobes built from scratch & also get you some ideas on bought in stuff, including IKEA, etc. I know if a few companies that make wardrobes to measure far cheaper than I can. Give me a call on 07782371990 to discuss. Paul Give me a call

Hello, my name is Paul, I am a local handyman & have carried out a fair amount of work, on this forum. I usually ask for ?25ph, on small jobs & just ask that people either try to be flexible, or otherwise make it worth my while. I can provide references, if needed. Regards, Paul 07782371990

I have done a fair amount of work on this forum. I have a VW transporter long wheelbase and charge ?25 per hour, plus fuel.

Hi Mike, I'm a local handyman & can provide recommendations, if needed. Looks like a fairly simple job - couple of hours ?50? Paul 07782371990

I'm available for ?25ph, with my vw transporter Paul 07782371990

I'm available for ?25ph, with my vw transporter Paul 07782371990

Hello, I've done some man & van work, on this forum, with my vw transporter. I charge ?20 per hour, plus fuel. Available this weekend, or next week. Drop me a text Paul 07782371990

Hello, My name is Paul, I am a local handyman. The post by sweet girl is spot on - there is a good chance that a new relay is all that is needed. If you wanted to order one, I could fit it for you, or I could come over & do some tests, first, which would save a few quid if it isn't that. Paul 07782371990

Couple of things: 1) is it definitely rising damp? Various things you can do to figure this out, such as salt test analysis. Could be bricks need repointing, or a leaky roof, or badly sealed window, etc. 2) is there good drainage. Sometimes plants, etc, left against a wall can retain moisture. Also worth paying attention to soakaways, guttering & drains. Be happy to do an estimate, for you, or to do the work on a daily / hourly rate. Give me a call on 07782371990 Paul

Sorry sue - didn't see your reply. The 99p lidl bags are actually 20l, so no - not that small. Not huge, either, so a little bit heavy on the single use plastic usage, if you are after huge amounts. Bags can be used as a plastic mulch, though, if carefully cut. Works out to 50quid per cubic metre, which is much cheaper than the council stuff. Can't speak for nutrient quality, but it looks good and black, with no major fibrous chunks. As for drying out, I think most composts will do that. It's kind of the point of a mulch, to prevent surface evaporation, by drying out, to keep the soil below moist. You either need to plant below the surface, if using seedlings, or keep well watered for seeds.

Hello, My name is Paul, I have various experience of sheds & also cabin building. May I ask your reasons for not wanting a flat pack shed? In my experience, they tend to be rather good value, whatever price / quality range you opt for. Second post up here asking for a scratch built shed, in a month or so. Last guy was unnecessarily rude when I enquired into his motivations. Reasons I could think of would be that you want something super cheap (osb sheets, which wouldn't weather well & would only really be cheaper if you do all the labour yourself) or something really high end, for habitation. Be happy to discuss with you, Paul 07782371990

You'll be lucky if anything at all comes up, after ten, in my bitter experience...

I love sharpening things. A noble (dare I say - manly? ) pursuit, if ever there was one, that engenders a feeling of invincibility. Back in to olden days, the village blacksmith would invariably avoid slaughter, if the village got pillaged. So, in summary, a good thing to have up your sleeve, in this pre-post-brexit era, at least until the rise of the machines & even then might come in handy. I've a number of tools, whetstones, etc, that would do the trick. I'm thinking dremel would probably work best, though. Where are you at? Hit me up on 07782371990, I'm around today & tomorrow, mostly. Paul

Secret of a good marriage is honour... (getting on 'er & staying on' er" Keep it short & sweet. Start with "on behalf of my wife and I" (big cheer) Thank ppl: Everybody for coming Parents In laws Helpers Something special about the bride - why you make a good couple & stand a fair chance, in the face of statistically appalling odds. Toast Done! (should I be charging for this? It's in the business section, after all...)

Hi there, I am free today & tomorrow, and can provide references. Paul 07782371990

My friend Steve & I will have this done in a jiffy! We are a wee bit busy tomorrow, but should be free around 10:30 - 11:00am for a bit. Twenty quid? Cheers Paul 07782371990

Whups... Fat fingered typo corrected - should be 07782371990 (i had the 1 as a 2) And I didn't get your pm, either! (We aren't doing very well, are we?)

Lidl compost is actually insanely cheap. 99p a bag!

Main thing is prepping the surface to be weed free, and level, and to do it quickly, once the turf arrives, and not to tread on it, until established. Clock is ticking, once it is delivered... You will have your own views on use of products -vs- what you want to spend & environmental impact, so would be happy to discuss these with you first. I've good availability this week & next, and charge ?12ph Give me a ring on 07782371990, if you'd like to discuss, or have any other gardening needs. Paul.
