Need a hand at home?
A shelf still in the box. A printer that will not connect. A patio that needs a clean. Call with the list and we will tell you what we can sensibly help with.
Small jobs welcome. Short visits from £39. Longer jobs quoted before booking.
How we help
Practical jobs that are too small for a big contractor but still need someone careful to come round and sort them.
Tech help
WiFi, printers, phones, tablets, smart TVs, laptops, email and setting things up.
Flatpacks & furniture
Flatpack assembly, small furniture jobs, loose fittings and things that need finishing properly.
Shelves & small fixes
Shelves, hooks, pictures, minor repairs and the little jobs that never quite get done.
Car washing
A simple clean at home without having to take the car anywhere. We price it by vehicle and what needs doing.
Pressure washing
Patios, paths and driveways. Outdoor jobs are quoted first so the price is clear.
Odd-job lists
A few practical jobs in one visit. Longer lists can be priced as a single visit or half-day style booking.
A small local service, not a call centre
A Hand Around The House is for people who want a straightforward person to call for practical help at home. You do not need to know the right trade or fill in a long form. Just tell us what needs doing.
It is especially useful when you are helping a parent or older relative and want someone patient, clear and honest about what they can do.
You will deal with a small local team. We check the job first, keep the booking simple, and agree the price before anyone comes round.
What to expect
How it works
- Ring or email us.
- Explain what needs doing.
- We confirm whether we can help and give a clear price or quote.
- Someone visits at an agreed time.
Useful for
Older relatives, busy households, and anyone who wants someone straightforward to call for practical jobs at home.
Pricing that is clear before we start
Short visits have a clear minimum price. Longer jobs, car washing and outdoor work are priced before booking so the cost matches the job rather than forcing everything into a tech-help timer.
For grouped jobs, we can usually give a fair visit price rather than simply adding up every half-hour. The aim is a sensible price agreed before anyone starts.
Need a hand with something at home?
Call us, explain the job, and we will tell you honestly whether we can help and what it is likely to cost.
