Gutter clearing

Gutter clearing

It’s that time of year again when the gutters get blocked from leaves and moss.

A customer’s gutter was blocked due to the down pipe being blocked from the leaves and the moss.

The down pipe needed rodding and unblocking after which the guttering could then be cleared.

It’s surprising how much moss and grit can gather in the guttering - but another job finished and a very happy customer!

New Garden Climbing Frame - modifications and made safe

New Garden Climbing Frame - modifications and made safe

A customer called me as he had ordered a new climbing frame but wanted some modifications to it.

I also recomended some changes to make the climbing frame secure so no kiddies could topple over and fall out.

The frame only had feather edge board all the way round at a low level which didnt look safe at all. I added an 18mm thick gravel board at a higher level to become a handrail for the children. I also cut down and modified a wooden ladder, adding on handles at the top and putting in a post to support the ladder.

Result - a very happy family all round!

Kitchen Worktop and new Ceramic Sink fitting

A customer enquired to see if I could fit a new ceramic sink into the existing worktop. She wanted to remove the old steel sink and replace it iwith a bigger ceramic sink.

No problem - I enlargened the sink space and dropped the sink in, knocking out the tap hole carefully to fit the new single basin mixer.

Result - one very happy customer and a gleaming new ceramic sink!

**Customer review:**
