Repairs and Maintenance
Fixings up those odd jobs around the home!
Do you have some bits and pieces that need attending to ?
There’s many reasons why you might need general repairs and maintenance on your property. Accidents happen, things get bumped and scratched and dropped, and no property is ever free from general wear and tear no matter how well you look after it. That’s why this service is our ‘bread and butter’, and we’re very good at it.
Around your house, there are hundreds of things that can deteriorate over time and with daily use. They tend to be things we don’t even think about, because they just melt into the background of our lives. Once they break down and stop working, or develop problems, that’s when we notice them. Sometimes preventative maintenance can help prolong the lifespan of things before they break and need to be repaired, but it can be difficult to see these little things until they become a real problem.
The root cause of an issue is another thing that very often isn’t obvious. If it isn’t addressed, we can do all the temporary or aesthetic fixes in the world, but the problem is just going to come back later. When the cause of a problem is discovered, the repair tends to be costlier at first, but in the long run you’ll find that it saves you a lot more money.
Our handymen can perform a wide range of repair and maintenance work around your house. We’ll list some of the more common problems that you may encounter, but if your problem isn’t in the list just contact us! Chances are we’re more than capable of providing a solution.
