Bricklayer, Carpenter & Painter


Recommended Posts

I?m looking for someone to help with some small bricklaying and box-making jobs at my house (just off Lordship Lane, round the corner from the Bishop pub) for an immediate start.


My house is about to go on the market and I?d like to fix some garden brick work and box around some exposed pipes. Job to be complete by Sunday 29 April.


I also have a bigger painting job (painting outside of the house) that is a little less urgent than the other work.


Please let me know if you are a tradesman / handyman with availability to do this work.


Many thanks


John

Thanks to those who got in touch.


Jason Corner, who is a painter, decorator & handyman, did an excellent job with his carpenter colleague Ernie and his bricklayer too. Nicely done and quick too! He filled cracks, painted the outside of my house, painted the bathroom ceiling, built some tidy boxes to cover exposed pipes, painted our railings and fixed some external brickwork, all in just a few days.


You can find him via his Facebook page - search for Jason Decorator and Handyman.


Great work gents, thank you!

    • If you want to change a radiator and it is the same size, pretty straight forward.  isolate by turning the two valves, one is straight forward hand twist, the other side you need to take the cap off and get an adjustable spanner and turn till closed.  Both clockwise. Use the same spanner to undo the large nuts that fix the radiator to the pipework, open the bleed valve, get a flatish container to catch the water which is likely to be a grotty black, sheets/plastic underneath to protect floor/floor covering.  Then jiggle off, tipping as quick as you an into your water container. Fingers crossed it will be the same back plate fitting.  If not you will have to take the old one off and fix the new one. Replacement is a reverse, allowing the rad to refill and let the air out. No naked flames involved. If it is a different size I can advise on that too. Lots on line too: https://www.toolstation.com/help-and-advice/how-to-guides/how-to-remove-radiator?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=19747119835&gclid=CjwKCAiAkvDMBhBMEiwAnUA9BR26YwBA6kOfcR4-JVxfJEjWdhRk6j0imCNcsIfu064wHN54-cs10xoCZ4cQAvD_BwE Although this is for a pressurised (combi) system where you need to get it back to pressure.  Pretty simple.  I don't bother with jointing compound.    
    • Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍
    • I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses? 
    • confused by the question?
