How CRF can help

Useful help for everyday jobs

From fitting shelves and curtain poles to repairing loose fixtures and finishing a list of small jobs, Danny offers a tidy, efficient service. Grouping several tasks into one visit often makes the best use of time and keeps disruption low.

Good fit: Ideal for a focused job list that one experienced tradesman can complete with a well-equipped van.

Typical work includes

  • Shelves, mirrors and curtain poles
  • Shelving and storage fitting
  • Minor repairs and adjustments
  • Silicone, sealant and finishing work

How a list of jobs is planned

Write down everything you want doing, take a photo of each job and send them through together. Danny works out how long the list will take, which jobs need materials buying first, and whether anything needs a specialist such as an electrician or gas engineer. The visit is then booked as a block of time, so the jobs are worked through in a sensible order rather than with separate call outs.

Grouping jobs this way keeps things simple: one arrival, one set of dust sheets and one person to deal with from start to finish.

Handyman help by area

Danny is based in Rochester and covers the Medway towns out to Maidstone and Tonbridge.

Beyond the regular area

Tonbridge is the furthest regular town. For these places you are welcome to ask whether a larger list fits.

A local handyman, not a call centre

When you search for a handyman near me, you often reach a booking platform that passes the job to whoever is free. Booking CRF Services Ltd means booking Danny himself: one local handyman based in Rochester who prices the list, arrives on the agreed day and does the work. That keeps things simple, and it means the person who has seen your photographs is the person who turns up with the right fixings.

Handyman prices and how they are worked out

Rather than a fixed handyman price list, each visit is quoted on the jobs you send, the time they need and any materials. Grouping several small jobs into one longer visit is almost always better value than separate call outs. The guide to handyman hourly rates in the UK explains how hourly, half day and day rates compare, and the handyman or specialist guide helps you spot jobs that need a different trade.

Indoor and garden jobs on the same visit

A handyman and gardener visit is common when a list includes a loose fence panel, a gate that drags or a small garden tidy as well as indoor jobs. Garden work on that scale fits alongside doors, shelving and sealant, and bigger garden projects are covered by the landscaping service. Electrical, gas and major structural work is always left to the right specialist and said plainly at the start.

Common questions

Handyman Services questions answered

Typical hourly rates around Medway sit in the region of 30 to 50 pounds, though most job lists are quoted as a half day or full day because that works out better value.

Small jobs are usually grouped into a half-day visit. That way the travel and setup time is only paid for once instead of on every little task.

Shelves, mirrors, curtain poles, storage fitting, sticking doors, loose fixtures, silicone and sealant work and similar tasks all fit comfortably into a single visit.

Yes, please do. A written list with photographs lets Danny allow the right amount of time and bring the correct fixings and tools on the day.

Common fixings and consumables are carried in the van. Anything specific, such as a particular door or blind, is agreed before the visit.

Yes. Work areas are kept tidy, dust is contained where possible and the space is cleared at the end of each visit.

The mounting and making good can be handled, but connecting a ceiling fan to the lighting circuit is a job for a qualified electrician.

There is no single legal requirement for every job, so it is sensible to ask any tradesperson what cover they hold and to see it in writing before work starts.
