Fred was fantastic and was exactly as I needed. White glove handling of all pieces, laser measurement tools and took his time to get everything exactly right. If you have art work that needs an expert eye with a mathematical mind and state of the art equipment then Fred’s your guy. 10/10 service and quality!

Plumbing, Tiling & Appliance Installation
£1,000
Great Oxney Green, Essex
16th May 2025
Looking for a skilled handy person or team to complete the following renovation tasks: Bathroom (Ground Floor): Remove existing shower. Install washing machine and tumble dryer in the same space (to be stacked). Build a secure and tidy frame around the stacked units. Tile bathroom floor (currently covered with lino) - 1.6 m × 1.65 m. Conservatory: Remove existing flooring if needed. Retile the entire floor area - 4.7 m × 2.5 m. Kitchen: Integrate a dishwasher into existing units next to the sink. Note: No electrical outlet in that spot currently – may require minor electrical work. Integrate a freezer into existing kitchen units. Additional Notes: Please bring appropriate tools and materials (tile adhesive, grout, etc. – or advise what you’ll need). Plumbing and electrical experience required for appliance integration. I’m happy to supply tiles, appliances, and other major materials – please advise what you can provide vs. what I should purchase. Must have experience / knowledge in stacking appliances safely and securely.

Hutton, Essex
15th May 2025
We have a range of tasks that need completing, all of the below is pictured: 1. Hang a coat rack/shelf 2. Remove and refit 3 x small Velux blinds (code: GGL 206) 3. Hang a 70x100cm framed canvas 4. Hang a Samsung Frame TV (note: this must be drilled into an inactive chimney) 5. Hang a key lock box 6. Remove a shelf on the log store that was installed in the wrong location (screw is rounded off); re-fit in the correct position 7. Fit 4 x drawer handles 8. Hang a 55-inch TV (note: this is on a stud wall and will maybe require reinforcement) 9. Secure 3 x mirrors that are resting on the floor or cabinet but need to be anchored to the wall 10. Measure, cut down, and hang 2 x curtain poles 11. Secure 7 x mirrors to the wall (various sizes) 12. Remove previous and fit new WC accessories --- Important Notes 1. The property is currently unoccupied. Work must take place between 8AM – 6PM. We’ve had Airtaskers finish arrive late and finish late in the past, which is unfortunately not feasible as we have young children. Weekends are more than fine! 2. Please review the following fitting guide for the Velux blinds before accepting the job: https://www.skylight-blinds-direct.co.uk/blinds-for-velux-windows/gentle-beige-vel-man 3. We do not have nails, hooks, or hanging materials for the mirrors and pictures. These will need to be supplied by the handy man and we will reimburse. 4. You must bring all necessary tools, including a saw for cutting the curtain poles. We have nothing there. 5. A tool to shorten metal screws will be needed to fit the drawer handles. 6. I think this is perhaps 2 days work in total, maybe less, but I assume some of it will take time. Please do consider this when taking it on!

Please read before committing: Radiator has half-come off the wall. It’s an electric radiator that still works but the bracket has bent and screws have come out of the holes. I think it needs securing to the wall that looks like it can be done with either new holes or filling existing. Hammer to straighten the current bracket Power drill or right tills to put back on Need it done tonight (after 6) or tomorrow before 12:00 Thanks!

Roof maintenance

Warley, Essex
8th Nov 2021
My single storey extension roof has leaking issues around velux windows. I am not sure if there is just maintenance required around windows as roof has a shallow pitch or if there is a bigger issue. I cannot therefore accurately estimate budget. If there is a tile issue then will be more expensive. This was looked at 3 years ago and ‘fixed’.
