The customer wanted to have the tiles painted under the 2st floor window and over the front door canopy.
With dust sheets over the ground floor bay window and using my ladders and platforms, the tiles were brushed over with a steel brush before applying the paint.
The customer wanted the feature wall painted and shelving fitted on either side of the fireplace.
The shelves were added after painting was done.
Material used 24cm window board and 2×1 timber for shelves to sit on.
Looks great.
Before and after. Painting of the decking for hot tub in Hartburn.

The customer wanted to take the fence section away in order to fit 2 storage bin enclosures.
I suggested using the part of the fence to carry it through to the shed, keeping the uniformity and utilising the materials.
There was already paving to assemble the 2 storage bin units.
Looks good with the fence moved to the side, cut to size and fixed to existing fencing posts, utilising and making good use of space.
Dust sheets are used as painting is in progress at Glamour shop.

A large awning has come away from the wall at one end and needs fixing back. But the brick, which the fixings are in, has crumbled, so l suggested the fixings use the next line of bricks up.
Having hired two scaffold towers to rest the awning on, l use 10mm driver bolts.
The brackets are fixed to the wall, and the awning can now be offered up and secured to the wall.
Job done.
The water has been leaking through the damaged tiles over a long period of time.
So, lets get to work and see what the damage is under the tiles. Having removed the rotten board l’m left with solid timber to build up the platform.
I need to add a 19mm thick board to bring the level up to and ready for the new tiles.
Now l’m ready to tile this area but l’ve decided to use large tiles instead of the mosaic to cover a larger area.
After the tile adhesive is dry time to grout and add silicone to the edges.
Job done and water tight!
Once again, Ashtons Handyman Services was rated the best of the three in Stockton on Tees area.
Mostly I am working in lived in homes, it’s great when you have and empty house to decorate but that’s not very often the situation. So, it’s important to have the room cleared as much as possible and get those dust sheets down covering all surfaces including the bed!
Clean and good quality dust sheets are alway used.
I move the heavy furniture to the centre of the room so I can work round and be able to reach the middle of the ceiling with an extended poll.
There, job done.
By the looks of things this leaking has been going on for sometime as the water has now soaked the plasterboard and the skirting, which in made of MDF.
So, time to get to work. I have removed the damaged plaster and skirting and pulled back the flooring to allow to dry. I have also removed the shower screen as this is where the water is getting through. The shower screen needs a new seal and lowering a bit as the gap between the screen on the bath is too big.
There, job done, just needs painting.

There job done, and the rain water is running off into the gutter which has a gentle gradient towards the down pipe.
The customer wished to have the TV cable hidden and then to wallpaper the wall.
Nice job!
The customer wanted to use the space available by having a base cabinet fitted with access to the existing corner cabinet already in place.
I suggested a 400 mm cabinet with door to match. I will cut the side panel to access through to the existing cabinet.
Once fitted and screwed in place a shelf was added and the surrounding trims fixed in place to cover the gaps.
The customer wants to paint the cabinet and trim, nice and tidying with minimal cost. Cabinet £45 from Howdens and £65 to fit.
