Services on offer
Local handymen tackle a wide range of smaller maintenance tasks — furniture assembly, picture and mirror hanging, door and drawer adjustment, minor plastering, gutter clearing, fence repair, and general household fixes. Many operate on a day-rate or hourly basis and can work through a list of jobs in a single visit.
Qualifications and accreditations to look for
Handymen are not regulated as a trade in the UK, but any handyman carrying out gas work must be Gas Safe registered and any electrical work must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations - ask to see the relevant certificates before work on regulated systems begins. For general maintenance tasks, asking to see public liability insurance is standard good practice before allowing any tradesperson into your home.
