Looking for a full replacement: new timber door, new frame fitted to the existing concrete opening, painted to match (or close to) the current look.

Fitting my blinds
£40
Cambridge Heath, Greater London, E2
30th Aug 2026
I need help installing my new blinds. I think it’s a masonry wall, and I can’t drill the holes deep enough for the screws provided with my 20V cordless drill and masonry drill bits (I’m only able to get 22mm into the wall instead of the 30mm that’s required). I think it requires a hammer or SDS drill, but I’d appreciate someone’s expertise to ensure the job is done correctly.
Sha was great - very responsive, friendly and efficient. Got the job done well

Hang an internal door
£150
Plaistow, Greater London, E13
4th Aug 2026
A small job for an experienced carpenter/joiner to hang a new internal door. The door has already been planed to size and fits the opening, so won’t need any resizing or trimming. I just need someone to: * Fit and recess the hinges into the door and frame. * Hang the door so it is straight, flush and operates smoothly with even gaps. * Fit a pull handle to the door (pull handle only – no latch or lock mechanism). The frame is already in place, and the door is ready to be hung. I’ve attached a photo of the opening. Tools: * I have tools available, including a planer and chisels. * Ideally, you’ll bring your own professional tools. Parking: * I’ll cover the cost of parking. Looking for: * Someone with experience hanging internal doors. * Attention to detail – I’d like the door aligned properly with clean hinge recesses and a good finish. Please let me know your experience and, if possible, include photos of similar carpentry work you’ve completed.
Josh is a very courteous, reliable and competent carpenter. Took a challenging door job and made it work. Left everything clean and tidy and I would definitely recommend him as a first class Tasker (professional)! Will be asking him back for more jobs for sure.

The old set of wooden Venetian blinds needs to be taken down and removed (off premises by you) and a new set of similar blinds installed (which we have). They are 2cms wider than the original blinds so the old fixings need to come off and the new braces reset slightly further apart.

Handyperson for various maintenance tasks
£120
Central Parade, Greater London
2nd Aug 2026
I've built up a backlog of small household jobs and would like them done in one go by someone reliable and tidy. Roughly a full day's work. Just as importantly, I'm hoping this becomes a longer-term arrangement. I'd rather find one person I can call whenever something needs doing than start from scratch each time, so trust matters a lot to me. If this first day goes well, there will be steady work. The list covers four areas: Decorating and repairs: touching up paintwork on the staircase woodwork, including wood filler where needed. Filling, sanding and repainting a stained patch of ceiling. Re-caulking two bathrooms. Mounting and hanging: living room curtains, several mirrors and artwork around the house. Walls are a mix, so the right fixings for plasterboard and masonry will be needed. Smart home and security: fitting smart cameras and bulbs, removing a redundant outdoor Yale alarm box and replacing it with a SimpliSafe bell box and plaque, plus opening an outdoor key safe. Odds and ends: swapping a burr in a coffee grinder, repotting houseplants. You'll need your own tools, including a drill, ladder and basic decorating kit. I'll supply all materials unless you'd rather source anything yourself. Good communication and turning up when you say you will matter as much to me as the quality of the work. Happy to walk through everything at the start and then leave you to it. Splitting it across two shorter visits is fine too. In your offer, please tell me roughly how long you think the list will take, whether there's anything on it you'd rather not take on, and whether ongoing work appeals. Photos of the staircase, ceiling patch and alarm box available on request.
