seeking good, reliable HANDYPERSON


claresy

Recommended Posts

I'm desperately seeking a reliable and competent handyperson after a number of unsuccessful previous attempts on the forum. What I need is someone who (a) can generally come at relatively short notice (b) has good all-round skills © does not subcontract to other people. (d) tells me if something is not within their skills, rather than attempting to do it! If anyone knows someone, that would be great as the previous unsatisfactory people were self-recommended.


To give an idea of the type of work I'd need, these are some of the things on my list (some more urgent than others): a bath tap that's not straight and needs fixing; s shower fitting that's coming off the wall; a ceiling light flex that needs shortening; some garden rubbish that needs disposing of and a fence that needs some repair; various holes in the walls (I appreciate these might need a plasterer rather than a handyman).


I'd expect to pay about ?15 an hour.


Thank you.

Hi, I can recommend Jasper Miller (Mob.07961-174-786). He is local and extremely handy at plumbing, electrics, tiling, painting, flat-packing etc. He has done countless jobs (all of the above) around the house for us over the past 10 years (including small removals) and is very reliable. Also always willing to come asap and to fit in with our work-schedule etc.

Fits all your requirements.

Please feel free to pm me if you need any further information.


Thanks!

    • Labour have changed a number of things overnight.   1. VAT on school fees - this has resulted in 25,000 moving until state education. 2. Increasing NICs adding billions to the cost of going to work. 3. Introducing the Employment Rights Bill causing employers to stop hiring. This and item 2 have added 100,000 people to the unemployment scrapheap. These are also causing businesses to relocate further harming the economy. 4. Scrapping all the small boats deterrents meaning 60,000 illegal migrants have arrived in small boats since they were elected. 5. Dishing out huge public sector payroses with no conditions so we have a massively increased payroll and doctors etc arestill going out on strike. 6.changed IHT and non domicile tax rules causing 16,500 millionaires to leave the UK and stop paying any tax here at all forever. 7. Alongside 6, leaving the budget up until an historically late period after the last budget has caused a house price crash, killing the market and decimating government stamp duty receipts. 8. Their profligate borrowing (£100bn extra in just one year) to fund all their lavish promises means the government can now only borrow at the highest ever yields on records. They are more beholden to the bond markets than Liz Truss was. 9. The rate of inflation has doubled under this government. It was a healthy 2% when they came in. For most of the last year, as a result of all of the above it is now nearly 4%.   These are all decisions the Labour government took that have immediate cause and effect.  Its no good harking back to 15 years ago. The current administration was gifted the fastest growing economy in the G7 and within 15 months they have destroyed it.    And things are only going to get worse this winter.      
    • I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service… 
    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
