Many people can relate – DIY tasks and garden chores have a habit of piling up. Maybe you started a project but it turned into a “bit of a bodge job” that needs fixing properly. Or perhaps the thought of loading the car with rubbish for a tip run fills you with dread (and you’d prefer not to get mud and dust all over your boot!).
It’s frustrating when your home isn’t quite how you want it, yet finding a trustworthy person to “get it sorted” feels like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Why trust us? For starters, we’re DBS-checked and fully insured, so you know you’re in safe hands.
We’re also licensed waste carriers (registered with the Environment Agency), which means we can take away your unwanted rubbish or garden waste and dispose of it responsibly – no mess, no fuss, and no illegal fly-tipping worries. When we say we’ll take care of something, we really do everything needed, including the tidy-up afterwards. We’ll treat your home with respect: working carefully, cleaning up any mess, and leaving things better than we found them.
Because we’re a small family business, you get a personal touch. It’s usually just the two of us turning up with toolbox and garden kit in hand, ready to roll up our sleeves. We pride ourselves on being friendly, punctual, and professional – the kind of service you’d happily recommend to a neighbour.
And speaking of neighbours, we know the area well and serve all the villages and towns within roughly 15 miles of Codford. Although if you are a bit further out, please get in touch, we can usually accommodate.
In short, we love tackling the jobs you either can’t stand or can’t find time for. You’ll get quality workmanship (no half-hearted bodges), honest advice, and a fair price. We’re here to help you maintain a home and garden you’re proud of, without the stress
.
Save Time & Energy: Reclaim your weekends and free time. Instead of spending hours on odd jobs or heavy garden work, let us handle it. We work efficiently and get it right the first time – so you can relax, knowing it’s sorted without you lifting a finger.
Trustworthy & Reliable: We’re local and proud of our reputation. Being a husband-and-wife team means you know exactly who will be turning up at your door – no strangers, just your reliable neighbours. We show up when we say we will, do what we promise, and we’re fully DBS-checked and insured for your peace of mind.
One-Stop Solution (Handyman + Gardening + Waste Removal): No need to juggle multiple tradespeople. Whether it’s fixing, building, or digging, we can tackle most tasks around your home and garden. We’ll even take away the rubbish when we’re done. From a quick repair to a full garden tidy-up, you get a comprehensive service — all in one visit if possible. Less hassle, less mess left behind, and a home that’s left clean and tidy.
Don't worry, we can help!
Flat-pack wardrobes, desks or playhouses built properly first time and positioned exactly where you want them. We bring the tools, spare fixings and patience—so you skip the Allen-key headache altogether.
Bespoke sheds, benches, picnic tables and log stores handmade to your measurements from pressure-treated timber. Sturdy joinery, a neat finish and built to shrug off British weather.
Weekly, Monthly or one-off mowing, crisp edging, weed removal and gentle pruning all done in one visit. We leave lawns tidy, borders presentable and paths swept so your garden looks loved, not neglected.
Storm-damaged panels, wobbly posts or dragging gates reinforced or replaced in short order. We use treated timber and proper fixings to restore privacy, keep pets safe and smarten your boundary.
Floating shelves, curtain rails, blinds or TVs fixed securely to brick, plasterboard or stud walls. We bring the right anchors and a laser level so everything sits straight, sturdy and gap-free the first time.
As licensed waste carriers we load appliances, furniture, rubble or garden cuttings and dispose of them responsibly. Your space ends the day clear, tidy and fully compliant with the rules.
Don’t let that to-do list loom over you for another day. Give us a bell and get it sorted
– you’ll wonder why you didn’t call sooner!

We’re based in Codford and generally cover all villages and towns within about a 15-mile radius. That includes much of the Wylye Valley and surrounding areas (places like Warminster, Heytesbury, Shrewton, even the outskirts of Salisbury). If you’re not sure whether you’re in our range, just ask.
Pretty much any of those “odd jobs” or maintenance tasks around the home and garden. Common requests include fixing leaky taps, unblocking gutters, repairing fences, painting touch-ups, putting up shelves or curtain rails, assembling flat-pack furniture, mowing lawns, trimming hedges, weeding flowerbeds, and clearing out sheds or garages. We also handle waste removal – so if you have old furniture, appliances or bags of garden waste to dispose of, we can sort that too. No job is too small – if it’s something you need help with, just give us a call and we’ll let you know if we can do it (chances are, we can!).
Yes, absolutely. We know inviting someone into your home requires trust. Rest assured, we have full public liability insurance, so you’re covered in the unlikely event of any accidents or damage. We are also DBS-checked, meaning we’ve passed background checks (we’re happy to show you our DBS certification if you’d like). In short, you can trust us to be professional, honest and respectful. We take pride in our work and in treating our customers the way we’d want to be treated – like good neighbours.
Definitely. We’re licensed waste carriers, so we can remove and carry away household or green waste that comes from the jobs we do. Whether it’s an old sink we’ve replaced for you, a pile of hedge trimmings, or general clutter you’ve asked us to clear out, we’ll load it up and dispose of it properly at a registered facility all within the quote we give you. You won’t have to worry about trips to the tip or overflowing wheelie bins – we leave your place tidy. (If it’s a huge amount of waste or something hazardous, we’ll discuss the plan and any minimal disposal fees upfront – no surprises.)
Just contact us by phone or through the website, and let us know what you need doing. We’ll arrange a convenient time to have a look or sometimes we can quote based on a description and photos. Quotes are free and no-obligation. Our pricing is fair and transparent – for many small jobs we can give a fixed price, or an hourly rate if that makes more sense. We’ll explain everything in advance, so you can decide with confidence. No hard sells, no hidden charges. Just an honest price for honest work.
For most small jobs in Codford, Warminster or the nearby villages, we can usually pop round within 2-4 days. Larger projects—like a full garden tidy-up or shed build—may need a little longer, but we’ll always give you the first available slot and keep you updated.
Not unless you want to. We’re happy to source everything—from fence posts to tap washers—from trusted local merchants in Warminster or Salisbury and add them to your final bill. If you’ve already bought the bits, that’s fine too—just let us know.
Absolutely. We carry full public-liability insurance and both of us hold DBS certificates. Homeowners across Wiltshire trust us in their homes and gardens because we’re professional, transparent and proud of our reputation.
We stand by our workmanship. If something isn’t right within 14 days, we’ll come back and put it right—no quibbles, no call-out fee. Your peace of mind is part of the service.
Easy: bank transfer, card or cash—whatever suits. For larger builds like bespoke picnic tables or sheds, we may take a small deposit to cover materials, then the balance once you’re delighted with the job.
