Handy Ady Margate

Handy Ady Margate I love making and fixing things, either in your home or at my workshop.

From basic jobs such as putting up pictures or fixing a leaking tap, through to building bespoke shelving, or making something you need, I'm happy to help! After leaving the world of Management Consulting, I now spend my time making and mending and helping people out. I love to see the results of my work, be it fixing a broken piece of furniture, or helping you get your house in order, I'm happy to discuss any job, big or small!

I’m going to be out of the office and in the fields for the next few weeks as i am working on the build for two different festivals over summer.

I am taking bookings for work in the Margate area from late September onwards.

Have a good summer!

Hanging curtains in a bay window is often a nightmare… I have used and recommend a bay pole which allows you to shape the pole to the angle of the bay window.
This idea of using different sets of curtains across a bay is one that I hadn’t thought of before, but will definitely use again!

Building this kind of large furniture shouldn’t be a chore! I assembled this bed and fixed it securely to the wall to prevent any toppling accidents!
Sometimes you have to be a contortionist when putting things together and my training certainly came in handy on this job!

Installing shelves into alcoves may seem simple, however without the right tools and techniques, you can end up with all kinds of problems.
