What I do

Handyman & garden services, in full

One trusted pair of hands for the whole property, across Hornsea, Beverley and the wider East Riding of Yorkshire. Here's everything covered, inside and out.

Repairs & odd jobs

From a wobbly door handle to a dripping tap, most homes build up a list of small jobs that never quite get done. One call covers the lot, no job too small, and no callout fee just to take a look.

  • Shelving & flat-pack furniture
  • Sticking doors & worn hinges
  • Dripping taps & minor leaks
  • Curtain poles, mirrors & TV mounting
  • General wear-and-tear repairs

Painting & decorating

Whether it's one room or the whole house, walls and woodwork get prepped properly before a drop of paint goes on, so the finish lasts. Furniture is covered, edges are sharp, and everything is cleaned up at the end of each day.

  • Interior walls & ceilings
  • Skirting boards, doors & woodwork
  • Exterior masonry, fascias and soffits
  • Fence & shed staining
  • Wallpaper removal & prep
  • Wallpapering walls and ceilings

Fencing, decking and other garden structures

A fence or deck left to rot doesn't just look bad, it can become a safety issue. New structures are built to last, and existing ones are repaired post-by-post rather than replaced outright where that's all that is needed.

  • Garden design
  • Garden structure design and construction
  • Panel & feather-edge fencing
  • Gates & posts
  • Timber decking & repairs
  • Fence panel replacement
  • Storm damage repairs

Lawn & garden care

Regular mowing and a seasonal tidy keep a garden looking cared for all year round. One-off tidy-ups are just as welcome as an ongoing arrangement, whatever suits how you use the space.

  • Lawn mowing & edging
  • Weeding & border maintenance
  • Hedge trimming
  • Planting & seasonal tidy-ups
  • Green waste removal
  • Tree and shrub pruning

Patios & paving

A patio that's sunk, cracked or full of weeds between the joints can often be brought back to life without a full re-lay. New patios and paths are laid properly from the base up, so they stay flat and drain well.

  • New patios & paths
  • Re-pointing & re-grouting
  • Slab levelling & repairs
  • Block paving
  • Drainage & edging
  • Pressure washing

  • Glazing
  • Lock changes
  • Replacing weather seal
  • Adjusting doors to ensure correct closure
  • Painting doors and windows
  • Fitting windows and doors
