Mount/Fix radiator to wall
£55
Cann Hall, Greater London, E11
14th Mar 2025
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!


Would use Giedrius again in a heart beat. Repaired and fixed my radiator back to the wall in less than 5 minutes

Fix 2 blinds. One is the living room (medium size) and one in a small toilet. Blinds have been bought so just needs fixing.


Rykki did an outstanding job fixing the blinds in my parents home, displaying both skill and professionalism. He also helped us fix one of the toilet seats at no additional cost. My parents are thrilled with the quality of his work and his thoughtful gesture, and they have expressed their confidence in working with him again in the future. We truly appreciate his excellent service and highly recommend him to others.

Install toilet seat / put up curtain pole
£30
South Woodford, Greater London, E18
2nd Oct 2024
1. Install toilet seat I need a new toilet seat installing, ideally someone with experience in installing them where the toilet bowl is enclosed (as in there’s no screws underneath to fasten / tighten it). My dad had a go the other day but wasn’t able to complete it, so the toilet seat is currently resting on the bowl and it’s not ideal. Can explain more over message / with the photos. 2. Install curtain pole. Again, my dad tried to do this the other day but he didn’t have his tools with him. The equipment needed is a drill that can drill into brick - one side is done (see photos) but we need the other side doing also. With the right tools this should be fairly straightforward but any questions please ask.


Amazing work! Went above and beyond, even going to Screwfix to get the right parts for the job. Finished a job in minutes that my dad was on all day - thank you so much!!

Roof maintenance
£150
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’.
