Handyman/Carpenter: Fit 3m timber arris rail
£160
Loughton, Essex, IG10

Supply & fit 3m timber arris rail + drip edge into uPVC gutter Description: Flat roof edge over a back addition (accessible by standard ladder from the patio/ground, approx. 2.5–3m high), easy access 3.6 meter ladder A previous worker pulled off a 3-metre section of timber arris rail (tilting fillet) and stuck Flashband over it. Rainwater is now missing or dripping behind the plastic gutter. Scope of work: Strip off the old Flashband. Supply and fix a 3m treated timber arris rail (roof fillet). Supply and dress a felt drip edge or rigid GRP drip trim over the rail, kicking into the existing uPVC gutter. Seal the joint to the existing roof felt so it is watertight. Materials & Tools: Tasker to bring their own ladder and fixings/sealant. Tasker to supply materials (standard treated arris rail/fillet and GRP/felt drip trim from Wickes/Travis Perkins). Happy for you to include materials in your offer or supply receipts for reimbursement on top. Straightforward 1–2 hour job for a competent carpenter or handyman. Strictly no large roofing contractors, full roof relining quotes, or lead flashing upsells.

Remove small stains from garden tiles and SEAL tiles
£80
Woodford Green, Greater London, IG8
16th Aug 2026
I posted a similar job recently and we had someone come in who we have used previously to remove all garden tile stains but unfortunately they were unable to seal the tiles. So I am posting again. We need some further small stains to be removed (it will not take long as most of them have already been removed) and most importantly, we need our tiles to be sealed with an excellent garden tile sealer to prevent further future stains and to protect our porcelain tiles. You must be professional in having this kind of experience and I will be looking at reviews. thank you!
