This can vary depending on the volume of work but there is usually a delay of 6-8weeks for less urgent jobs.
Jobs are prioritised and we try to carry out urgent jobs as soon as possible. These are jobs where there is a risk to the client. Consequently less urgent jobs may wait longer.
If you are able to make other arrangement to complete less urgent work, please let us know, so the service can help those with out an alternative source of help.
Cost of Work
The cost is £10.00 per hour for labour.
If you are able to provide the materials for example if you want some shelves
put up or some tiles fixed, this would be helpful. If the handy person purchases
the materials, then we shall pass this charge on to you.
