We had call from a customer regarding their property in Merton, SW19.  It involved a porch door which had been refurbished not long ago. unfortunately it was deteriorating  already. The paint had started to crack and knots were showing amongst other issues. We removed the door, sanded it down,filled in where needed, treated the knots and re-painted it.  We re-adjusted the hinges and are pleased to say the door now fits into the frame.

We also tended to the customer’s shower which needed new sealant. We raked the old sealant around the bottom areas out and replaced it with anti-bacterial sealant.

Our team went to Roehampton this week to investigate a damp leak at our client’s home.  We found out that it was the toilet that was leaking. Unfortunately we also discovered some extremely dangerous wiring which had been installed at the same time as the toilet. As craftsmen have to guarantee their work for several years we suggested that our client call the firm that carried out the work to come and fix it.

We also checked over the lighting in the bathroom. We checked the wiring and replaced spot light  bulbs as needed and fitted a new shower head.

And last we fitted a floor threshold and fixed the knocker on the front door.

This week our handyman went to Twickenham. A client had recommended us to a friend and so we fitted a bathroom extractor and re-did the sealant around the bath itself.  In the kitchen we replaced the light bulbs in the kitchen cabinets.

This week our handyman got to work for a client in Barnes. Jobs included installing a new dimmer switch, patching walls and tightening leaky tabs in the bathroom.

We have just finished a bathroom refurbishment for a returning client in Wandsworth.  We removed and replaced the grout and sealant. Repaired leaking tabs, removed a hairdryer sock with a socket for shavers and finally , we repainted the whole room and hung new blinds.  Our client was extremely happy with the outcome and recommended us to one of their friends.

This week we were called out to Epsom.  Our client had issues in the bathroom that were caused by an unskilled craftsman.  The bath was leaking in four different places and the shower was balanced on lose bricks. In addition to that the grout and mastic needed replacing.

We build a support system for the shower which now makes it safe to use again.  The old grout and mastic were removed and replaced. Happy to report that after a thorough clear up our client finally had a safe, fully functioning bathroom.

We have spend 2 days in Streatham this week to bits and pieces for one of our existing clients.
On the electrical side we have fitted new light switches and units and replaced bulbs. We have also carried out repairs to a faulty doorbell.
We then tiled the box unit in the bathroom and removed and resealed the edge of the bath.
We have investigated a condensation problem, applied filler to the wall along the stairs where a previous lodger was rather careless when moving furniture etc.
And finally in the kitchen we painted the door frame and installed a new mixer tab.
