Business overview

Colin Home Service provides handyman services across the London Boroughs of Kingston upon Thames, Richmond upon Thames and Merton, including Wimbledon. It is run by one person, Colin, who handles every enquiry, quote and job personally. The service suits homeowners, tenants and landlords with small to medium jobs around the home: fixing sticking doors and loose hinges, assembling flat-pack furniture and storage, fitting shelves, mirrors, blinds and curtain poles, painting walls and woodwork, and installing or maintaining under-sink water filters. Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a close-up photo, a wider photo of the space, your postcode and a short description of the job. For furniture or fittings, add the product link or model number. For wall-mounted items, the wall type, size and weight of the item decide which fixings are suitable, so these details help get the price right first time. The scope, materials, price and availability are agreed before any booking. Several jobs can be sent as one list and quoted together. This is usually more practical than arranging a separate visit for each small task. Useful details to include with an enquiry: your full address, access and parking arrangements, stairs or lifts, and whether you own or rent the property. If permissions are needed for the work, mention them at the start. Coverage: Kingston upon Thames, Richmond upon Thames and Merton. A town name alone does not confirm an appointment, so a full postcode is used to check the address and availability. What is not covered: some plumbing and electrical faults, and certain installations, require an appropriately qualified specialist. If a job falls outside handyman work, you will be told before anything is started, rather than after. Enquiries are handled by WhatsApp, phone or through the website, colinhomeservice.co.uk.
