What I do

If it involves a drill, a level, or a paintbrush, it probably fits.

01

Mounting + hanging

TVs, shelving, art, mirrors, curtain rods. Proper anchors for every wall type.

02

Furniture assembly

IKEA, Wayfair, the mystery flat-pack from the garage. Flat-rate per piece.

03

Small repairs

Drywall holes, sticky doors, running toilets, squeaky stairs. Most under $200.

04

Interior painting

One-room jobs, accent walls, touch-ups. I bring the drops and tape.

05

Fixtures + fans

Swap any standard-wired fixture. Dimmers and smart switches too.

06

The full list

Eight things on the list? Book a half-day or full-day at the hourly rate.

On the invoice

What is in the rate, and what is not

The estimate you accept is the invoice you get. Here is what that number already contains.

Already in the rate

  • Travel to and from your address inside the service area
  • The estimate, whether it comes from photos or a visit
  • Screws, plugs, anchors, filler and consumables
  • Dust sheets, vacuuming and taking the rubbish with me
  • Bringing every tool the job needs, first time

Genuinely costs more

  • Materials and fittings you asked me to buyAt cost + receipt
  • Tip runs and bulky waste disposalAt the tip fee
  • Access equipment above a three-metre ladderHire cost
  • Paint and specialist finishesAt cost
  • Work beyond the service areaAgreed before I set off

Never on my invoice

  • A call-out fee
  • A minimum charge for a twenty-minute job
  • A charge for quoting, from photos or in person
  • A weekend or evening loading
  • Anything you did not agree to first

If a job turns out to be a different job — the wall is brick, the pipe is corroded, the flat-pack is missing a panel — you get the new number before I carry on, not after.

Said out loud

What people ask before they send the list

Is my job too small to bother you with?
No, and the flat rates exist so you can see that. A single curtain rod is a real booking. What genuinely does not work is one twenty-minute job an hour away — so if that is the situation I will say so and suggest saving it for a bigger list.
No minimum charge
Are you licensed for the electrical and plumbing bits?
For like-for-like swaps on existing wiring and existing plumbing, yes. For anything notifiable — a new circuit, a board, moving a waste, gas of any kind — no, and I will tell you so and hand you the name of someone who is. A handyman who says yes to everything is the one to worry about.
Told plainly, before booking
The last one turned up, looked, and never came back.
You get a two-hour arrival window rather than a day, a text when I set off, and a same-day estimate from photos so there is no wasted visit to be flaky about. If I cannot make a slot, you hear it from me before it passes.
Two-hour window, text on the way
What if it takes longer than you said?
On a flat-rate job that is my problem, not yours — the price holds even when the wall turns out to be brick. On hourly work the time is tracked openly and rounded to the quarter hour, and I tell you when we are approaching the estimate rather than after we passed it.
Flat rate holds

Anything else worth asking? Ask it — the phone is answered by the person who will do the work.

03Estimate by photo

How it works

  1. Send the list

    Text or email photos of the jobs. You get a flat-rate or hourly estimate the same day.

  2. Pick a slot

    Most bookings land within the week. You get a two-hour arrival window that I actually keep.

  3. List, done

    Work done in one visit wherever possible. Dust sheeted, vacuumed, rubbish taken.

Two ways in

Which one is this?

I have a list

Text the photos, get flat-rate numbers back the same day, and pick a slot. Most lists are done in a single visit.

Landlords and property managers

Turnovers, make-goods and the running list across a portfolio. Photographed job reports, one consolidated invoice a month, and the same person every time.

The promise

If a flat-rate job takes twice as long as I thought, that is my problem and my time — the price you agreed is the price you pay.

  • Estimates from photos, free, same day
  • Two-hour arrival window I actually keep
  • Drops down, shoes off, rubbish taken
  • Materials at cost, receipt attached

Hourly work is tracked openly and rounded to the quarter hour. If I find something behind the wall that changes the job, work stops and you get the new number before it continues.

04Straight answers

Before you book

Hourly or flat-rate — which is cheaper?+

Single defined jobs (a TV mount, a wardrobe) are flat-rate so you know the number upfront. A long mixed list is usually cheaper hourly. I'll tell you which when I quote.

Is the estimate really free?+

Yes — send photos and a description and you get a number the same day. No call-out fee for quoting.

Do you do electrical and plumbing?+

Like-for-like swaps only — fixtures, taps, toilet internals. New circuits or pipe runs get referred to the licensed electrician and plumber I trust.

What if a job takes longer than quoted?+

Flat-rate jobs stay flat — the risk is mine. Hourly work is tracked openly and rounded to the quarter hour.

Do I need to buy the parts first?+

Only if you care which ones. Tell me the model and I will pick them up on the way, charged at cost with the receipt attached — no markup, no "supply fee". For anything with a look to it, brackets and taps especially, most people would rather choose their own.

Is there a minimum booking?+

No. One shelf is a fine job. If you only have one small thing, flat-rate is almost always cheaper than an hour, and I will tell you that rather than book the hour.

How far ahead do I need to book?+

Most jobs land within the week, and there is usually a same-week gap for anything urgent. Saturday mornings book out first — they go about two weeks ahead.

Do you do work for landlords and agents?+

Yes, regularly — turnovers, make-goods and small maintenance lists. Invoiced per property with photos of each job attached, which is what most agents actually need for the file.

Service area

Where the van goes

One van, so the area stays tight and the arrival windows stay real. Outside it I will say so rather than take the booking.
