Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? You’re in the right place. This page covers the most common questions about handyman/handywoman services, pricing, availability, and how bookings work.
What kind of handyman/handywoman jobs do you do?
Pretty much all handyman/handywoman jobs; everything from putting up pictures and curtains, to flatpacks, and small electrical and plumbing jobs. Please see the list of Services. If you can’t see what you need on the list, please ask. I understand that each home is unique.
Do you guarantee your work?
All new work is guaranteed for 12 months. In the unlikely event that you are not happy with the work, I would return and remedy the problem immediately. Customer satisfaction is paramount. As a local, independent business, I depend on reputation and word of mouth.
How do you charge?
I have a variety of models to suit you and the job. I have prices per task and also work hourly and per project. I will help advise on what is best for your requirements. Parking fees and materials are charged in addition if applicable. See the Services & Pricing page for details. I work quickly, efficiently, with care and take pride in what I do.
Who comes to do the work?
I will undertake the work myself. I understand it can feel vulnerable inviting someone in to your home. I'm happy to provide references on request. More and more people are turning to tradeswomen for the safety aspect.
Will you bring everything you need?
I use professional tools and carry basic materials and fixings. For anything more specialist, rather than me having to go out to a shop when I arrive at your home, I suggest you buy the items yourself. I can help guide this.
Do you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Please be aware that these are the most popular times and get booked up quickly.
Are you insured?
Yes, I have full public liability and other relevant insurance. Documents can be seen on request.
Do you give fixed appointment times?
The first appointment of the day will receive s fixed time. After that, I am unable to give fixed times, but a 1 to 2 hour window. I try to be as accurate as I possibly can to give a timeframe of when I will be with you. With variables such as traffic, diversions and unforeseen delays at a previous client’s property, it is impossible to give specific times of arrival.
