Watch out Jack, it’s Jeff of all Trades

-

How does Jeff of All Trades work?

Every homeowner knows those little maintenanc­e jobs build up over time. A tile falls off the wall, doors become loose, knobs fall off, the shower leaks, the taps need changing, there’s a hole in the wall, a new dryer needs to be put on the wall, the list goes on and on.

There are also those annual jobs that should be done: cleaning the gutters, washing the solar panels, pruning the hedge, service air conditioni­ng units.

Repairing/servicing each of these items as they happen can cost, big time. Ignoring them completely can cost even more in the long run.

How Jeff of all trades works is that the resident puts a list of all those “little” jobs together, makes an appointmen­t to discuss and create a list of the most pressing jobs that can be completed in a day, for one fixed cost of $450 plus parts and Jeff will complete the agreed work.

What’s a day?

A day starts early and finishes as long as it takes to get the agreed work finished – a minimum of eight (8) hours.

Residents can book Jeff of all Trades to return each year to complete the annual services their home requires.

Is it true your day rate can be shared across neighbours?

Absolutely, it’s all about maximising time and value for money so neighbours in the same street can share the time and cost.

What kinds of work/repairs/maintenanc­e do you do?

Perhaps the best way to give you an idea is to look at what I’ve done just this week; reattached an internal door, door handle installs, a back door not closing due to swelling so a repair, seal and paint.

Replace light bulbs, replace shelving in kitchen cupboard (damaged due to a water leak), replace tap washers, repair and replace fence panels, clean gutters, rehang a sliding door, replace missing tiles in shower and reseal, regrout loose tiles, install a security door, re-gauze doors and windows, build flat pack furniture, install a towel rack, rehang a hinged door, reset air conditioni­ng vents, remove awnings and reinstall, replace rotten beams in carport and verandah, mount TV antennae, install and seal storm water pipes, wall mount a clothes dryer, repair holes in wall plaster...

I have a list of services on my website: www.jeffofallt­rades.com.au

How long have you been a handy man/ tradespers­on?

I am a welder by trade and have been fortunate to have learnt many additional skills over my working life of 40 years that make me a very handy man. I am lucky to have a large shed of my own and all the necessary tools and equipment to fix any issue a single level home may have.

It gives me great personal satisfacti­on to design and create home improvemen­ts and well as to service and maintain a home – be it mine or yours.

Are you from Dubbo?

Dubbo is my hometown and the postcode that I service.

Do you tidy up after you’re done?

I treat your home like my own and a job isn’t complete unless the mess is gone too.

Anything else you’d like to add about your business products and services?

While focused on growing my full day service offering, I am also available to come and fix that one urgent job you need fixed.

Inspection/end of lease repairs, repairs to commercial premises, work for commercial businesses such as Real Estate Agent and other housing organisati­ons is the kind of work I am available to assist with.

I am fully insured and hold several workplace and constructi­on site tickets and happy to discuss any opportunit­y or problem that I may be able to assist with.
