Frequently asked questions

Do you cover areas outside of Primrose Hill?
While we are based in Primrose Hill, our team provides full coverage across London and the M25. We regularly assist homeowners and businesses in neighbouring areas like Camden, Belsize Park, and Regent’s Park, as well as further afield. Whether you are in a central apartment or a suburban home, we can coordinate a visit to suit your location.
What should I provide before you arrive?
To ensure we bring the correct tools and any necessary materials, it is helpful if you can describe the task in detail. For furniture assembly, providing the brand or model name is ideal. If you are looking to have items mounted, such as heavy mirrors or televisions, letting us know the wall type (e.g., brick or plasterboard) helps us select the right fixings for a secure finish.
Are you able to handle small “odd jobs”?
Yes. We understand that small maintenance tasks—like changing a lightbulb in a high ceiling, bleeding a radiator, or shaving a sticking door—can be just as frustrating as larger projects. We are happy to tackle a list of smaller “to-do” items in a single visit to help you get your property back in top condition efficiently.
How do you handle pricing for your services?
We believe in clear and transparent pricing. Once we have a clear understanding of the work involved, we provide an estimate based on the time required and any specialist materials needed. We don’t believe in hidden costs; our goal is to provide a fair price for high-quality, reliable manual work.
Do I need to supply the tools or fixings?
No, we arrive fully equipped with a professional toolkit to handle a wide range of repairs and installations. We also carry a variety of standard screws and wall plugs. If your job requires specific specialist parts or a particular finish for a fixture, we can discuss whether you would like to source these yourself or have us pick them up for you.
