Need help with home maintenance or small repair jobs that have become difficult to do yourself?
Home Improvement & Repairs
Our Handyperson Team can help make your home safer, more comfortable, and better able to accommodate your changing health needs.
How we can help:
If you are unsure whether we can help, please get in touch anyway. This service is free, you only pay for the costs of the materials needed to complete the work.
Hospital Discharge Handyperson Service
We accept referrals from all Manchester hospitals to enable the safe discharge of patients and prevent avoidable hospital readmissions.
In addition to our standard safety adaptations, this service includes fitting key safes and moving furniture to accommodate medical equipment.
If you own your home and you are planning larger repairs, renovations, or adaptations, we’ll provide you with free advice and support throughout the process.
Our Technical Officers can help you get competitive quotes from reputable contractors; draw up a schedule of works so it’s clear what the contractor should do; and supervise and inspect the work if you decide to go ahead with it
We can help you understand your funding options and check whether you are eligible for any loans or grants. This may include grants for things like boiler replacement, major repairs, essential white goods, and furniture, for people most in need.
If you want to proceed independently with your works, we can provide you with details from our list of trusted contractors. We vet and interview all contractors on the list and ask for feedback on their work.
