I’m a highly experienced cabinet maker, joiner and qualified Architectural Technologist with extensive hands-on experience in building, refurbishment and property improvement. I combine high-quality craftsmanship with strong technical knowledge, allowing me to approach projects from both a practical and building-performance perspective. I specialise in bespoke joinery, kitchen and bedroom fitting, furniture installation, carpentry and general building work, as well as home refurbishment and property improvements. I also have particular expertise in diagnosing and resolving damp and moisture-related problems, improving insulation and thermal performance, and carrying out retrofit and energy-efficiency improvements. I have extensive experience designing and building outdoor structures, including bespoke saunas, garden rooms, studios and timber buildings, with a focus on durability, moisture management and energy efficiency. My technical background in retrofit coordination, insulation, thermal bridging and moisture analysis means I can often identify the underlying cause of problems rather than simply treating the symptoms. This is particularly valuable when working on older or poorly performing properties. Whether you need a kitchen or bedroom fitted, bespoke joinery, carpentry and building work, damp repairs, insulation improvements, a home refurbishment, or a bespoke garden building or sauna, I provide a reliable, professional service with careful attention to detail and a focus on getting the job done properly.

I’ve been working as a handyman for the past 10 years, supporting homeowners with a wide range of practical jobs around their properties. Over that time, I’ve built up strong experience in tiling, painting and decorating, landscaping, and damp treatment, and I’m confident taking on both small fixes and larger pieces of work. I take pride in doing things properly and leaving a clean, tidy finish. Most of my work comes from people who want someone reliable, easy to deal with, and able to get the job done without any fuss. I always make sure to explain what needs doing, agree the plan clearly, and keep clients updated as the job progresses. Whether it’s refreshing a room, sorting out damp issues, improving outdoor spaces, or handling general repairs, I approach every job with care and attention to detail. I want people to feel comfortable having me in their home and confident that the work will be completed to a good standard. If you’re looking for someone practical, experienced, and straightforward to work with, I’m always happy to help.
