Fix wall mounted shoe rack (crumbly brick)
£60
Cann Hall, Greater London, E11
13th Jan 2025
I bought and fixed on a wall-mounted shoe rack that lasted 7 days and then fell out. Our house is an 18th century terraced house so it has quite crumbly brick, which weakened around the wall plugs and it fell out. I would like help refixing the wall-mounted shoe rack to the same position, but it requires filling in the holes and stronger mounting (e.g. possibly chemical anchors with resin, or equivalent)
Great work, thanks Mark!

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!!
