Small repairs service
Small Repairs Service
Our small repairs service is available to owner-occupiers and tenants who are aged 60 or more, are registered disabled, or are suffering from long-term ill-health.
We can help with a wide variety of small general repairs, such as fitting:
- smoke detectors
- key safes
- grab rails
- security locks
- safety chains
- door viewers
We can also ease doors, carry out minor electrical work such as wiring plugs or replacing fuses, minor carpentry such as fitting shelves or curtains, and minor plumbing work like replacing tap washers.
The cost of the service is £20 for up to one hour's work, plus the cost of any materials. Work for a second hour (or part of a second hour) will cost a further £20. We are not able to undertake work that will take more than two hours.
For security reasons we cannot accept cash.
