Handyperson services
More than 70 local 91¶ÌÊÓƵapps operate handyperson services across much of the country. These services offer older people extra help with small practical jobs to make their lives easier and safer around the home.
A handyperson is usually a charged-for service and the cost will vary dependent on the work being undertaken.
Exact handyperson services differ from place to place, but these are the sorts of jobs they can usually help with:
- Small repairs - putting up curtain rails, shelves and pictures
- Safety measures - fitting smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors and grab rails
- Home security - door and window locks, door chains and door viewers
- Energy efficiency checks - installing draught excluders, radiator heat reflectors and energy efficient lightbulbs
