I accept bank transfer, cash, or card payments. My preferred method is bank transfer as it’s the most convenient. Cash is also fine. For card payments, I can send a payment link on request, but please note that I incur a processing fee, and there may be a delay in the payment reaching me.
I try to provide an initial estimate or price range based on the information and images you provide. For larger jobs, I will visit the site to give a more accurate quotation. I aim to provide estimates within a couple of days and a full quotation within 2–3 days of a site visit. If there are many materials to source, it may take up to a week.
It’s mainly just me, but I do have a team available to help with certain tasks when needed.
I expect payment on the day of completion. For jobs that require a significant amount of materials or take more than one day, a 50% deposit is required.
Payment is due upon receipt of the invoice. Late payments exceeding three days from the due date are subject to an administrative fee and statutory interest in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
No, as I aim to provide a competitive rate for a quality, long-lasting job. If a quotation does not meet your expectations, I’m happy to explore alternative solutions.
I cover Kettering and the surrounding areas, including Rothwell, Desborough, Rushton, Geddington, Barton Seagrave, Cranford, Burton Latimer, Isham, Pytchley, Broughton, Mawsley, and Loddington. If you're just outside these areas, feel free to get in touch, and I'll see if I can help.
I do not work on an hourly or daily rate. Instead, all jobs are priced individually based on the work required.
However, I do have a minimum call-out fee of £75.
I cover a wide range of handyman services, but I do not undertake electrical work, gas works, heating systems, appliance repairs, roofing, or structural work. However, feel free to get in touch, as I may be able to recommend someone or suggest an alternative solution.
Many assume that as a handyman, I only take on small jobs, but I am fully capable of managing larger renovation projects as well.
For my regular clients, I always suggest dropping me a message on WhatsApp, as it’s easy for me to say no if I’m unable to help.
