Handyman Annitsford

Handyman work in Annitsford, NE23

Annitsford grew up as a colliery village on the northern edge of North Tyneside, close to Dudley, Seaton Burn and the southern fringe of Cramlington. Today it is a mix of older brick terraces and semis, ex-council housing and more recent estates, all within easy reach of the A19 and A1 junctions. That mix of property ages means a real variety of small jobs, and that is exactly the sort of work our Jesmond-based team takes on.

Older homes tend to need attention to doors that have dropped on their hinges, tired skirting and window boards, and plumbing fittings that have been patched over the decades. Newer houses usually need finishing touches instead: shelves, curtain poles, blinds, TV brackets and flat-pack furniture for rooms that were handed over as blank boxes.

Jobs we often help with around Annitsford

• Assembling wardrobes, beds and office furniture, plus fixing tall units safely to the wall
• Rehanging or planing internal doors that catch on new flooring
• Replacing worn skirting and architrave as part of our carpentry and joinery work
• Fresh paint for hallways, landings and ceilings, including cutting in around old coving
• Fixing a dripping tap, a running toilet cistern or a slow-draining sink through our small plumbing repairs
• Taking down an old garden shed and repairing a loose fence panel or sagging gate
• Mounting mirrors, pictures and televisions on solid or plasterboard walls

If you have a list of bits and pieces rather than one big project, our general handyman service is designed for that. We would much rather tick off six small jobs in one visit than have you wait for six different trades.

Landlords and small businesses

Annitsford has a fair number of rented houses, and landlords often need a property put right between tenancies: scuffed walls repainted, a kitchen cupboard door rehung, silicone around a bath renewed and a few fixings tightened. We can work from a list you send through and keep you updated on what has been done. Small offices and workshops in the wider Cramlington and Dudley area can use us in the same way for shelving, door closers that need adjusting, or a quick freshen-up of a reception area.

How getting a quote works

The easiest way to start is to fill in our contact form with a short description of the job and, if you can, a couple of photos. You are also welcome to phone us. For straightforward jobs we can often give a free quote from the details and pictures alone; for anything that needs measuring, such as fitted shelving or a run of new skirting, we will arrange a convenient time to come and have a look first.

Once you are happy with the quote we agree a date. We bring the tools and fixings needed for the work, protect floors and furniture while we are there, and tidy up before we leave. We do not carry out electrical or gas work, so if a job turns out to need a qualified electrician or gas engineer we will tell you plainly rather than attempt it.

Covering Annitsford and the surrounding villages

Annitsford sits in a handy spot for us, just up the road from Wideopen and Hazlerigg and close to Killingworth and Cramlington. We regularly travel out this way and also cover Seghill and the villages around Weetslade Country Park. Whether you are in an older terrace or a new-build on the edge of the village, get in touch and tell us what needs doing.
