The DIY trend has boomed in recent years, and thousands of people flock to their local B&Q or other DIY superstores at weekends to get materials for their latest project. But research shows a lot of DIY projects are never completed, and some jobs are left outstanding for years! 

If you lack the tools, skills or motivation to complete your own home improvements it’s time to call in professional handyman services.

Even for a small home repair or improvement project, it’s often better to call in an expert. Otherwise, you could end up paying for someone to ‘make good’ and repair the damage you’ve caused. Painting and decorating is something you may be able to pick up or learn by watching YouTube videos, but for jobs involving plumbing or electrical work, it can be risky if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Calling in professional handyman services may cost a little, but can save you hours of time. An experienced handyman can advise you on the best way to tackle a repair or project and the best materials. They will also have power tools and equipment you will either have to buy or hire, and some of these tools can be dangerous in the wrong hands!

At Registered we have a database of vetted, reliable professional handyman services in all areas of the UK. All the businesses in our directory carry insurance and are thoroughly checked out before we agree to list them. 

Don’t rely on dodgy review sites or recommendations of well-meaning neighbours. Your home is your castle, and it’s worth spending a little money to get the best tradesmen you can.

Some projects will even increase the value of your home or make it easier to sell when it’s time to move on. When choosing the best professional handyman services company it can help to scope out the work you need completing. You can then discuss this and check that the tradesman has the necessary skills and experience.

Does your project need bricklaying, roofing, electrical works or joinery? Some projects are best suited to larger handyman companies with several employees, but for something like tiling, furniture assembly or shelf fitting a one-man band can be ideal.
