Nigel Dunning General Handyman - Poole

Started in 2003, Nigel Dunning General Handyman - Poole is a family-run business based in Poole. Nigel provides the quotes and carries out the work, while his wife, Nicola, handles the telephone, day-to-day paperwork, quotes, invoices, and tax matters. Friendly, courteous, and offering sensible prices, they operate on the principle that if something can be repaired rather than replaced with new, they will repair it. Free quotes and estimates are offered, no job is considered too small, and payment is strictly due upon completion, with no money requested up front.

They attend to carpentry, door hanging and repair, door handle fitting, furniture assembly, shelves and picture hanging, curtain and blind fitting, light bulb replacement, and glass unit replacement. Home childproofing and stair gate fitting are also available. For interior finishes, they carry out plastering, painting, decorating, wallpapering, and tiling, alongside kitchen and bathroom work including regrouting and resealing.

Plumbing and electrical support includes tap and shower repair, shower enclosure fitting, toilet repair and replacement, sink and waste pipe unblocking, appliance plumbing, socket installation, and fitting new light sockets for small, like-for-like electrical jobs. Externally, their work encompasses gutter cleaning, guttering and fascia repairs, gardening, fencing, metal railings, garden walls, small building repairs, and building outside steps. They also undertake contract work, serving as odd job contractors for letting agencies.
