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

    • William, a farmer, farming with both his parents who are in their 80s, summed up the nonsensical approach the government is taking on farmers on Question Time tonight when he said: "At the point at which inheritance tax becomes due you aren't in a position to pay it without selling an income bearing asset which then destabilises the very entity you have built up to create a profit from". He summed it up beautifully when he closed: "If this policy were to persist it will materially and existentially destabilise our [the county's] farming business " The biggest clap of the programme came from the ex-NFU president who accused the government panelist: "Why aren't you going after the wealthy investors, the private equity businesses that are buying up land, planting trees, offsetting their green conscience. You've done nothing to them. They're the ones driving up land prices. These farmers do not want to sell their asset....they want to invest in it and this is going to stifle investment. Who is going to want to invest in new buildings as that is going to drive up the value of the estate." "You're going after the wrong people". It's amazing that the government have been daft enough to pick a fight with farmers - Alastair Campbell commented that he did react with shock when it was announced in the budget as, he said, you don't start a fight with farmers.
