Plaster and Plasterboard Patching Whittingham

Putting up Shelves Whittingham

When recently asked what was the most common project he was requested to do, an odd job man in Whittingham smiled and told me that it was putting up shelving. I suppose it stands to reason really, since every home in Whittingham almost certainly has shelves in numerous locations. Obviously, fixing up a shelf is something that your average householder might be able to undertake on their own. But, not everyone has the inclination or the tools to carry out this type of job, and would rather call on a handyman or carpenter to do it instead. Knowing that the work will be done properly and that the shelving is not going to fall off the wall after a month is yet another advantage. Naturally, it's not only residential properties in Whittingham that need shelves, business premises and shops also need all kinds of racking and shelving for both displaying and storing their products.

Age UK's Handyman Service

It is now a possibility to book in a handyman or gardening service by contacting the registered charity Age UK.

So that Age UK can continue their good works, the handyman pays them a portion of the money.

The Assembly of Flat Pack Furniture

If you were wondering what is the most commonplace job requested of Whittingham handymen, it is almost certainly the assembly of flat packed furniture.

Everybody but the best DIYers dread this task and are crying out for a little bit of help. Your local handyman will have undertaken this kind of job many times and will be experienced at working out the notorious instructions.

Painting & Decorating Whittingham

The vast majority of Whittingham odd job men will provide basic painting & decorating services for your smaller one-off jobs. Of course, a professional painter and decorator is a better option if for instance, you need to decorate your whole house, however for simple decorating projects a handyman should be able to help you, and at less cost. You can generally assume that a handyman in Whittingham will be prepared to undertake these decorating work: woodwork painting (skirtings, architraves and cornices), patching plasterwork, smallish wallpapering projects, door painting (varnishing or glossing) and the filling of cracks and blemishes.

Even though you may be in need of a somewhat cheaper service, you still want this work to be done correctly, therefore ask if you can see some samples (images) of comparable work that they have done for other customers. Established odd job men in Whittingham will normally create a record of their work, which will usually be visible on social media websites (Instagram or Facebook) or on their phone.

Boarding Out a Loft

Loft boarding can be a great way to improve your home's value, and it's even better when done by a knowledgeable handyperson. To transform an underutilized attic into a functional storage area or even a comfortable extra room, you'll need the expertise of a handyman. When it comes to loft boarding, a talented handyman has a variety of skills to offer. Before laying down the boards, they ensure that the attic's load-bearing capacity is considered by understanding the structural aspects of a house. This expertise can prevent likely safety hazards by ensuring that loft boards are installed to code and safely. An expert handyperson will also ensure that any insulation present is not compressed, as they're familiar with insulation requirements and the importance of maintaining energy efficiency in the home.
