We work in Kingston every week. Rates are £80 to £100 an hour, agreed before we start, with no minimum call-out on booked work. Most jobs in KT1, KT2 are done in one visit, and if we cannot finish in the time we quoted, you do not pay for the extra.
Kingston runs from riverside flats and new-build apartments to Victorian terraces up towards Norbiton. New-builds are almost all plasterboard, which means TV mounting, shelving and mirror hanging need cavity fixings sized to the load rather than whatever came in the box. The older houses need proper carpentry.
Access in central Kingston needs planning, so we book a time window and price parking honestly up front rather than adding it later.
If you have a list rather than a single job, book a half day. Four small jobs in one visit in Kingston costs far less than four separate call-outs, and most homes have more on the list than they first admit.

Questions from Kingston customers
How much does a handyman cost in Kingston?
£80 to £100 an hour, and £290 for a half day, which is the booking most people take. The price is agreed before we start and there is no minimum call-out on booked work.
How soon can you come?
Same-week for most jobs. If it is urgent, say so on the phone and we will tell you honestly whether we have a slot today or tomorrow.
Do you charge for a quote?
No. Send a photo or describe the job and we will give you a price. There is no charge and no obligation.
Do I need to be at home?
Not if we can get access. Plenty of our Kingston work is done while people are out, and we send photographs when it is finished.
Is there really no minimum call-out?
On booked work, no. If you have one small job we will do it and charge for the hour. We ask that it is booked rather than same-hour, so we can fit it into a run.
Do you supply the materials?
We can, charged at cost and itemised. If you would rather buy them yourself that is fine, just have them on site before we arrive.
Are you insured?
Yes, full public liability cover, and we will send the certificate if you or your building manager needs it.
Do you work with landlords and agents?
Yes. We look after rented property across Kingston, hold keys where needed and invoice monthly on account.
