Restoring a weathered composite front door. Over time, exposure to sun and rain had caused the surface to fade and lose its finish. I carefully cleaned and prepped the door, carried out minor repairs, and applied a specialist restoration treatment to bring back the rich colour and shine. The result was a front door that looked brand new again — adding instant kerb appeal and saving the customer the cost of a replacement.

Repairing deep cracks throughout a living room, including above the windows. Over time, settling had caused the cracks to widen and become structurally significant. I carefully drilled holes where needed, inserted adhesive to reinforce the cracks, and propped the areas to ensure a strong bond. Once secure, I filled and sanded the surfaces smooth, then applied a fresh coat of paint to restore an even, flawless finish. The result was walls that looked perfectly smooth and refreshed, with structural integrity restored and the room instantly brightened.

Installing a new tumble dryer vent to improve airflow and safety. The existing setup lacked proper ventilation, which could lead to moisture buildup. I measured and cut a precise vent hole, fitted the duct securely, and ensured airtight seals. The dryer now operates efficiently, with reduced risk of lint accumulation and improved energy performance.

Replacing an old bathroom light with a modern, energy-efficient LED fixture. The previous lighting was dim and outdated. I removed the old fitting, installed the new LED unit, and ensured proper wiring and positioning for optimal illumination. The bathroom now feels brighter, more contemporary, and safer for everyday use, while reducing energy consumption.

Installing a retractable awning to provide shade and protection on a patio. It was in a tight space with very limited clearance. To fit the unit, I raised the guttering and created custom wooden supports to ensure a perfect fit. I secured the awning firmly to the wall with strong fixings and finished the wood with a protective stain for durability and aesthetics. The patio is now shaded and protected, with a structurally solid installation that blends seamlessly with the home.

Removing old, worn carpets from a residential property in preparation for new flooring. The carpets were stained, frayed, and difficult to clean. I efficiently stripped the carpet, removed staples and adhesive residue, and prepared the subfloor for installation. The space is now clean, ready for new flooring, and instantly looks fresher and more inviting.
