Generally

Browse the lists below for an indication of how I can help. The emphasis is really on the smaller jobs. If you need more major work doing I would recommend contacting a specialist in that area, a Property Maintenance company or a small builder.
The types of job I can agree to varies depending on my other workload at the time.
