Recent Tradesman reviews in London Central London

Fred was excellent! He mounted both of my items quickly, cleanly and efficiently and came prepared with all of the tools needed to do the job. Fred was also extremely COVID-safe and took off his shoes at the front door. I would highly recommend Fred for handyman jobs and look forward to working with him again!

What does a tradesman do?

Tradesmen (and tradeswomen!) can help you tackle the tasks that need the expertise, tools, and knowledge that only a qualified local tradie can give. Whether you're looking for a builder, craftsman, or someone with experience in skilled labour, you can find a tradie to help with tasks like:

Electrical & plumbing

When you hire tradesmen to work with electricity, gas, or water, they’ll need special qualifications, training, and equipment to keep you and your house safe from fires, flooding, and property damage. You’d need to hire an electrician to install your new light fittings or electrical equipment, like ovens. And you’d need a plumbing tradie to help with plumbing tasks, like fitting new taps and pipes, or gas plumbing tasks like installing or repairing heaters and stoves. Your tradie will start by asking questions about the issues you’re having, then they’ll do a physical inspection of the area to assess the work needed. They’ll use their specialist tools and equipment to repair, install, or replace parts to get everything working properly.

Carpentry & cabinet making

Tradesmen are usually qualified professionals, so they’re ideally suited to tasks that need a higher skill level than a handyman. Carpenters and cabinet makers are in high demand for installing new cabinets, custom-making furniture, and installing built-in robes and cupboards. They’ll measure your space to ensure the furniture and built-ins fit perfectly and match your existing decor. Then they’ll work with a range of equipment and tools (onsite or offsite) to cut and shape the wood, then assemble any parts to create your finished product.

Exteriors

Tradesmen can help provide a professional finish to your exterior building tasks. For example, installing or repairing balustrades. Your professional tradesmen will measure, fit and install glass, metal, or wood balustrades to make your balcony area or stairs safe while matching the design of your home. Once they’ve established a safe work zone, they’ll remove the old balustrades before installing the new parts. Another popular exterior task is installing or upgrading awnings. Your tradie can pull down old, broken, or faded awnings and help you choose a new awning to match your house and surroundings. Using the right tools, they’ll carefully install the new awning so that it is safe and secure.

Concrete repairs & resurfacing

When concrete is damaged, it can create trip hazards, and let in water, dirt and other pests, which can cause further damage. Concrete resurfacing can help repair damage and give your property an instant update with coloured concrete overlays and/or designs. Your tradie will first assess the damage, then repair or replace any broken areas. Then they may clean the existing area with high-pressure hoses or chemicals. Once the area is clean and prepared, they’ll mix up a thin, concrete-based surface compound that will cover the area.

Remove damp drywall and seal shower

£100

Hackney, Greater London, E8

12th Nov 2024

A small section of drywall has become damp near the shower. I need the drywall removed and replaced. Then inspect the site for any other water buildup and/or mould. I assume the damp is coming from the shower being poorly sealed, but would like to confirm that. Once we’re satisfied there’s no problems, I’d need the section of drywall replaced. Included a photo with a 75ml toothpaste for scale.

Fix the drywall anchor that holds my curtains

£35

Newington, Greater London

8th Nov 2024

My curtains are fixed by a bar holder that uses a drywall anchor. The anchor has come off the wall, leaving a hole that's too wide to put it back safely. The curtains are heavy and the anchor cannot hold them anymore. I need to fix the hole using spackle and find a new anchor + screw that fits the fixed hole; or use some glue or cement to affix the bar holder to the wall without using screws; or any alternative you suggest. You will need to bring supplies and materials. I have a toolbox and basic repair materials such as packing tape and bluetac.

Re-render wall

£300

Harringay, Greater London

22nd Sep 2024

We have a wall that suffers with damp in our bedroom - we have had a specialist assess the situation and this is what they recommend needs to happen: Mark out the defective area then add 200mm to that size. Strip the area back to the brickwork and meticulously clean the bricks and mortar joints of contaminates. Make a render mix of washed plastering sand and ordinary cement in a ratio of 3:1 with a generic mortar waterproofing additive. Skim to finish but the skim coat must not exceed 2.0mm in thickness.
