Help at Home for Older Homeowners in Christchurch, Highcliffe and the New Forest
Some jobs become harder with age: reaching, lifting, drilling, climbing a ladder. I help with the jobs around the house that have become difficult, politely, patiently and at a fair price.
How I make it easy
A clear written price first
You know the cost before I start. No surprises at the end.
Never any pressure
Take your time. A friend or relative is welcome to be there, and you can say no at any point.
No money up front
Apart from materials for a bigger job, and then I show you the receipt.
Jobs I help with
- Fit grab rails, banister rails and handrails
- Fit key safes, door chains and door viewers
- Fix sticking doors and windows
- Hang curtain poles, shelves and pictures
- Assemble flat-pack furniture
- Tidy and repair garden gates and fences
- Painting and decorating, inside and out
- Lifting, moving and fixing things at height
…and much more. If something around the house is bothering you, just ask.
Not on the list? Try me.
I offer all of this and much more. If it is about fixing, building, painting or looking after your home or garden, I probably do it. Send me a message or a photo and I will tell you honestly if I can help, or point you to someone who can.
Feeling safe with a tradesperson
It is right to be careful about who you let into your home. Here is what you can expect from me.
- You get a written price before any work starts.
- DBS checked.
- Fully insured.
Common questions
Can my son or daughter book it for me?
Yes. Family can message me, send photos and arrange a time. I am happy to speak to you both.
Do you charge older customers more?
No. The same fair rates apply to everyone, and the price is always agreed in writing first.
Can you help with just one small job?
Yes. One job is fine. The minimum is 1 hour, so if there are a few small things I will do them in the same visit.
Call me for a friendly chat
No obligation. Tell me what you need and I will tell you honestly how I can help.
