Odd jobs questions

Can you repair kitchen cabinets and fit kitchen storage?+

Yes — cabinet assembly and fitting, cupboard door alignment, replacement hinges and handles, drawer repairs, shelves, utensil rails and storage racks can all be included in your job list. Send photos of the cabinets and fittings for a quote.

Is there a minimum charge?+

One hour is the minimum. Most people save up a few jobs and book a half day, which works out cheaper per task.

Can you mount a TV on a plasterboard wall?+

Yes — I locate the studs or use the correct heavy-duty fixings, and cables can be tidied or run behind the wall where possible.

Do you buy the parts?+

I carry common fixings, and can pick up handles, brackets or poles on the way for the cost of the item plus a little time.
