Floor boards need fixing
We were having new carpets fitted to the stairs and landing, but when the old stuff came up, it was obvious that we needed a carpenter before we could go any further. Garry came round quickly to assess the job and reassure us that it was all fixable and to give us a very reasonable price for sorting it all out. He then returned within a few days to fix all the loose floorboards on the landing, to sort out where someone had simply laid loose boards on water pipes and to replace some of the worst of the mess. He then did the same for the staircase, replacing the boards that were in a poor state and securing the rest in place properly. We now have a staircase and landing that are safe, properly secured and don’t squeak when you walk across the boards. Garry himself is great to do business with. He is reassuring, friendly, works really hard to get things fixed, and left the place clean and tidy. Very highly recommended.

Small section of floor joist to be replaced
Garry went out of his way and really helped me sort out my floor, stairs and cupboards. The one thing I would say is he doesn’t do rubbish disposal so take that into account but would still highly recommend!
Answer from tradesperson:
Thankyou Humra, was certainly a challenge with a tight timescale. The original request was for a few joist replacements, upon survey it became apparent the floor was dipping 25mm! Upon investigation it was alot more work than originaly allowed for. We carried out additional works, of rigid insulation to joists in the bay window , shed removal , carpet removal to stairs and landing and knocking through the brick wall under the stairs and were involved with the new pipework to the column radiators. I'm thrilled with the result of the works and pleased you listened to the professional advice offered.

Seal Access Gap Understairs Around Gas Meter
Posted my job online and Gary was very prompt in responding, the communication was clear and polite and Gary also shared a rough estimate based on the pics i shared. I was looking for someone to help me close the gap under the stairs, near the Gas meter, to avoid any mice coming into my property. It was a small however a tedious job, but Gary was happy to take it on and executed it flawlessly. He came over to my house, to have a look at the actual scope of work and also identified an additional gap which I had overlooked and suggested to close that off too. I appreciate his attention to detail and his polite, professional and friendly approach. He came with all the required tools and dust sheets and left my property completely tidy. I would happily recommend Gary and will certainly hire him again for any other things i need doing around the house. Thank you Gary
Answer from tradesperson:
"Love getting feedback like this! recently helped a client mouse-proof their home by sealing up some tricky gaps under the stairs and near the gas meter. It’s not just about doing the job; it’s about having the right tools, keeping the client’s home clean, and spotting details they might have missed. Thanks for the recommendation!

House and one garden job
EXTRAORDINARY odd job man that’s Garry, over a few months fitted two blinds, mirror, pendant light, two water butts, guttering for garden shed plus more. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and punctual everything and more you could want. Would highly recommend
Answer from tradesperson:
Thank you so much Derek! It’s been a pleasure helping you tick off that to-do list over the last few months. I really enjoy the variety of work, from the lighting to the garden guttering. I’m really glad you’re happy with the results. Thanks for the high recommendation!"
