Odd Jobs

The labour charge is based on a time duration in blocks of 1 hour, 4 hours or 7 hours. I will endeavour to complete as many items as possible in the duration booked but not guaranteed. Any single use tools like paint brushes will be added to the invoice when booked under Odd Jobs. Furniture and flooring coverings/protector costs may be added to the invoice when large areas need to be protected. Purchasing materials for you under Odd Jobs is done within the time booked. You may wish to purchase any materials in advance so to maximise my time on the job. Removal of waste not available.

Painting and Decorating info

Prior to my arrival, each room/area to be painted needs to be clear of personal effects, pictures etc. Large furniture may remain in the room but moved towards the center. Clearing a room ready for decorating is not included in the quote. Washing and toilet facilities required. Furniture and flooring coverings/protectors may be added to the invoice when large areas need to be protected. Paint brushes included.
