Appliance Fixer (washing machines, dishwashers etc
Trevor Corteil 07812 067 051
I used Trevor (recommended by my daughter). He deals with all kitchen appliances and I thought he was fantastic. Sorted out my washing machine. Marianne Geary
Re Trevor and the Washing Machine - a free-lance motor-racing mechanic who as a back-up has learned about domestic machinery. He fixed my washing machine extremely quickly, is very pleasant and efficient, and did the job at very reasonable cost. Definitely recommended. Ellis Jones April 2025
Blinds
I waited several times to get served at John Lewis and gave up. I found Hilary’s online and they turned out to have a good range of fabrics, to be friendly efficient and quite lot cheaper! Ellis Jones

Alan did a fantastic job clearing our blocked kitchen waste pipe. NB Alan should be engaged with Kevin due to the nature of the waste pipes. Ken Buckle Mar 2025

Plumber + General Property Maintenance
I engaged Glenn in Plumber mode to replace our leaking kitchen tap. A simple task in theory until the isolation valves failed and the hot and cold water supplies had to be switched off and the isolation valves replaced. He did a great job with the minimum of fuss. Ken Buckle April 2025
