The honest reason most small jobs stay undone is not difficulty — it is the effort of finding someone willing to do a two-hour job. A shelf that needs fitting, a door that will not close, a curtain rail pulling out of the plaster, a fence panel loose after the wind. Each one is minor. Together they are the reason a house never quite feels finished.
We take the whole list, not just the easy part. Our handymen arrive with the fixings, tools and materials for the work agreed in advance, and they understand how a job needs to be done to last — correct fixings into solid material, proper sealing, safe electrical and plumbing connections left to the right trade where the law requires it. You get a tidy finish, the packaging taken away, and an honest view on anything that would be better handled differently. It is a simple service: tell us what is on the list, we clear it.
What we cover
6 service areas under handyman, covering 138 specific jobs. Choose the one that matches your problem.
Doors & Locks
A door that sticks, drops or refuses to latch usually needs adjusting, not replacing. We rehang and adjust…
Furniture Assembly
Flat-pack looks simple on the box and rarely is on the living room floor. We assemble wardrobes, beds, desks…
Hanging & Installation
Pictures, mirrors, shelves and curtain rails usually fail for one reason: the fixing does not match the wall…
Sealing & Caulking
Most bathroom and kitchen sealant fails not because of the product, but because of how it was applied over…
TV & Wall Mounting
A television hangs safely only when the bracket suits the wall behind it. We check for timber studs, solid…
Wall Fixtures & Repairs
Walls can hide more than they show — old plaster, hollow studwork and failed plugs make fixings work loose…

How the price works
We charge a booking fee to hold your slot, then an hourly rate for the work itself. The fee changes with how soon you need us; the hourly rate changes with the slot you choose. You approve the price before we start, so there is no surprise on the invoice.

What our customers say about our handyman service
5 out of 5 from 8 reviews
Fast, tidy and friendly
Booked the £100 booking-fee slot on Saturday and got a message confirming the time the same morning. The cause was explained, the price agreed before any work started, and the job was done in about 77 minutes. Clean and tidy when they left.
Job: Heavy Picture Wall Mounting
Exactly what was quoted
Third time we have used Maintenance Men, and the same experience each time: agreed price, proper explanation, job done in one visit. The hourly rate is fair for the standard of work.
Job: Plaster Wall Repair
Worth the booking fee
Booked online, paid the booking fee, and the engineer rang ahead. Job done in about 43 minutes, plus straightforward advice on stopping it happening again. Will use them for the rest of the house now.
Job: Soundbar Installation
Proper job, no upselling
Turned up in the window they promised, walked me through the options (turns out the part had to be sourced locally), then cracked on. Everything was tested before they left. No mess, no drama, no surprise on the bill.
Job: Weatherproof Sealing Service
Would use again
Booked the £25 booking-fee slot on Wednesday and got a message confirming the time the same morning. The cause was explained, the price agreed before any work started, and the job was done in about 95 minutes. Clean and tidy when they left.
Job: Heavy Picture Hanging
Fixed it properly, not just patched
Turned up in the window they promised, walked me through the options (turns out the blockage was deeper in the pipe than it looked), then cracked on. Everything was tested before they left. No mess, no drama, no surprise on the bill.
Job: Locked Out Service
