Local fair & decent-priced Handyman wanted for numerous projects over time

Recommended Posts

I am looking for recommendations for someone to initially put together 2 items of Ikea smaller items of furniture (craft/worktop space plus a desk- sometime in February) also to later fix a large tv mounting to wall plus a tv, and also put together a leather reclining/massage chair with stool (Feb/March - TBA). I also would like put together a double colonial style wood bed base and headboard - sometime in February). I might also need other small DIY tasks undertaken in the future but spaced out - March onwards (convenient for both my wallet & your time!) Not all jobs mentioned maybe needed nor guaranteed wanted but just putting out feelers.

Also, I would like a small pane of glass fitted in/above a metal door-frame within a council flat (some glass shards remaining in-situ). It is approximately 29W x 24D and has been broken for 25+ years.  Can you give me a quote so I can figure out whether I can afford to get it done or just live with it?

NO self-recommendations please (unless you have recent, good, verifiable feedback on this forum or elsewhere) and I will check-out and scrutinise every person recommended as I am not rich but I do need/would like some things doing and will happily pay a fair price for good, decent, honest work. I cannot afford to get all done at once as I am an NHS healthcare assistant with a limited income and a budget I need to stick to but, once I find that "special someone" I would request their services again AND also, recommend to others.

I live on the SE23/SE26 border -  just down the hill from SE22 (SE23 3YW to be precise).

Thank you for reading.

Regards

Sue

Still looking for recommendations for a good, fair-priced and honest local handyman. Only responses I have had are PM's from people putting themselves forward but none are names I have seen before/often, mentioned in this forum so, I am wary. I find it disappointing that there is no-one who regularly uses this forum who can recommend a handyman?

I have a few jobs needing doing, over time and details are in the first post.

Thank you for reading.

Sue

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
