Stepney, Greater London, E1

Need someone to finish sanding balcony timber bar/ledge. We’ve already started the job, just need someone to come and complete the sanding so the wood is smooth and even all the way along. See photo attached. We already have: * Electric sander * Sandpaper You may want to bring your own dust mask for safety as we don’t have masks here.

Collect / remove a glass display cabinet

£50

Whitton, Greater London

24th Nov 2025

I need a glass display cabinet removed from my home. It is in excellent condition, fully intact, with zero damage. It has lockable doors and comes with two keys. This cabinet is definitely worth money to someone who resells furniture, but I don’t have the time to list it on eBay, and local charities are fully booked for collections for the next few weeks. I need the space, which is the only reason I’m hiring someone to take it away. Please note: • Budget is capped at £50. • I will not negotiate on this. • The cabinet is yours to keep or resell once removed.

5 star service, would definitely hire again

I professional Joiner/Carpenter to work on fire doors.

£300

Mottingham, Greater London, SE9

9th Feb 2026

Below are the deficiency noted by the local authority for my HMO compliance: - Smoke seal partly painted over, which reduces its flexibility, impeding its ability to block smoke. - Ill-fitting bedroom door with gaps of more than 4mm or less than 2mm between the fire door and the frame. This can compromise the fire door integrity by allowing smoke and fire to pass through more easily (The 2–4 mm gap applies to the two vertical sides and the top edge — this ensures the intumescent strips and smoke seals will perform properly in a fire. Too large a gap (>4 mm) may allow smoke and fire to pass through. Too small a gap (<2 mm) can cause the door to stick or not close properly. - Thumb turn lock not available. - Door doesn’t self-close. Severity Severe Below are the sugested remedy - Appoint a reputable fire door remedial service provider to assess and carry out the necessary repairs. The smoke seal must be fully replaced – The smoke seal must be certified UKCA/CE. - Adjust the door so that the gap is between 2mm and 4mm. Test and leave in proper working order. - Install a lock to the bedroom that can be opened from the inside without the use of a key, i.e. a thumb turn lock - Overhead self-closer: Inspect and adjust the tension and closing speed. Ensure that the door always self-closes. I am therefore looking for a professional who knows how to accomplish the above for 8 doors.
