I live in Weston Super Mare. I tried to get a handyman from AgeUk with no success. I then found a lovely chap, after a lot of no replies to phone calls. He charges £30 an hour, which I feel is a bit much, but he was the only one to arrive when he said he would, to have a detailed chat about what I wanted, and to actually turn up when he said he would do the job. So far he has hung new doors, moved hefty gates in my garden and is going to gloss paint all the woodwork in my hall and stairs a lovely clean white (painted a disgusting dark brown by previous owner!!). I have to book him weeks in advance, but it gives me time to get the money together. Future jobs include decorating several rooms, building a catio in my garden, helping my husband to fit a new bathroom, and painting the outside of my house.
