The British Handyman

About The British Handyman

The to-do list that never seems to get shorter is the reason people in San Mateo look up The British Handyman, a local handyman business. It has been operating for 10 years. With a team of one, the person you talk to is likely the person who does the work.

The listing sits in the handyman category, a broad label for general home repairs. A written list of tasks, with a photo of each, is the easiest way for a handyman to estimate how long the visit will take. Its other categories are furniture assembly and interior painting.

Flat-pack furniture that has been sitting in its boxes for weeks is a familiar sight, and The British Handyman offers furniture assembly for exactly that. Clearing floor space around the spot where each piece will stand gives room to lay out panels and hardware.

The posted week is Monday to Friday 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. Nearby towns include Burlingame, Foster City and Belmont; if the job is in one of them, ask whether it is covered.

A message to The British Handyman should describe each task, the room it is in, and anything awkward such as high ceilings, tight spaces or brick walls. Agree on whether cleanup and haul-away of packaging are part of the job before the work begins.
