Handyman & Property Maintenance

Our London handyman service handles the long list of small jobs every home and rental accumulates: fixings and shelving, doors and locks, flat-pack assembly, minor plumbing and sealant, picture hanging and snagging. Booked by the half-day or day, our multi-skilled operatives clear whole lists in one visit — including landlord reactive maintenance.

Written Guarantee: 1 Years
Average Timeline Range: 1 hour - 2 days

One Visit, the Whole List Cleared

Most homes and rentals carry a running list of small jobs that never quite justifies calling a specialist trade: a door that sticks, a wobbly handrail, blown sealant around the bath, a shelf to put up, a flat-pack wardrobe still in its box. Calling a separate tradesperson for each one is slow and expensive, and most will not turn out for a single small task anyway. Our handyman service exists precisely for this. We send a multi-skilled operative for a half-day or full day, you hand over the list, and we work through it in a sensible order — bringing the right tools and common materials so the job is done in one visit rather than a string of return trips. For anything that turns out to need a specialist — a notifiable electrical job, a Gas Safe task — we flag it honestly rather than bodging it, and we can bring in our certificated engineers.

What a London Handyman Covers

Our operatives handle the genuinely broad spread of work the name implies: hanging and adjusting doors, fitting and changing locks, latches and handles, putting up shelving, mirrors, curtain poles, blinds, TVs and pictures securely into the right fixings for the wall. Flat-pack and built-in furniture assembled and fixed safely to the wall. Minor plumbing — replacing taps, washers, toilet seats, flexi-hoses, silicone sealant renewal around baths, basins and worktops. Easing sticking windows, refixing loose skirting and architrave, filling and touching-up small areas, and general snagging after other works. We carry common fixings, sealants and consumables on the van so most jobs are completed on the spot. Where a list needs specific parts or a particular tap or lock, we confirm what to supply, or pick it up, before the visit so the day is spent working rather than driving to the merchant.

Reactive Maintenance for Landlords and Agents

For landlords and letting agents, the handyman service is the workhorse of reactive maintenance. The bulk of tenant-reported issues are exactly these small jobs: a dripping tap, a failed door closer, a broken toilet seat, blackened sealant flagged at inspection. Left in a queue they become complaints; cleared promptly they keep tenants settled and properties lettable. We attend on agreed terms, contact tenants directly to arrange access with the proper notice, and close each job with dated before-and-after photographs against your works order. Multi-job visits are priced as one half-day or day rather than a string of call-outs, which keeps maintenance budgets predictable. Our operatives carry ID, and we report any further defects we spot while on site so small issues are caught before they grow into deposit disputes or disrepair claims.
Standards & Compliance

Every project is delivered to current British Standards and Building Regulations, with works documented for building control and HMO licensing sign-off — backed by fixed written quotes and a written guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How much does a handyman cost per day in London?

Expect a day rate of around £200–£300 plus materials, or a half-day rate of roughly £120–£170 for shorter lists, depending on the work and the area. Multi-job lists are far better value booked as a half-day or day than as individual call-outs. We confirm the rate and a realistic list for the time before booking.

Is there a minimum charge for a single small job?

Single jobs are usually charged on a half-day minimum, so the value is in grouping tasks: write down everything that needs doing and we will work through as much of the list as the time allows. For account landlords and agents we agree schedule-of-rates pricing and consolidated monthly invoicing.

What jobs can your handyman not do?

We handle minor plumbing and general repairs, but notifiable electrical work and any Gas Safe task must be done by our certificated electricians and gas engineers — we will tell you honestly when a job crosses that line rather than bodging it. We can bring those trades in under the same booking so the work is still handled by one company.

Do you provide the materials?

We carry common fixings, sealants and consumables on the van, so most everyday jobs are completed on the spot. For specific items — a particular tap, lock or light fitting — we either ask you to supply them or pick them up first, so the booked time is spent working rather than driving to the merchant.
