Hi! Nice to meet you!

---

I offer repairs, upcycling, renovation, refurbishment and solutions.  Any service I offer has the option for instruction as skill sharing.  If you need advice on a problem area in your home or a piece of furniture that could be better utilised with a few changes, want to learn a new skill or would rather have someone take a task off your list entirely, give me a shout!

I was lucky enough to have access to a fully equipped wood shop from a very young age, staffed by an expert craftsman willing to let me make anything I could think of (including some epic messes and mistakes!) in the form of my grandfather.  I've always been interested in crafting, making, gardening and growing things, redecorating and repairs and have put those interests and skills to good use in the various places I've lived and worked.  I've also used my maker tendencies to stock various market stalls, which allowed me to utilise one of my other interests - talking to people from all over the world and all walks of life.  Most recently I was able to put the full range of my skills to good use, as well as learning a few new ones, as the caretaker for a small church in northwest London.

I'm passionate about saving items from landfill, repairing and repurposing instead of replacing, and am a huge fan of pallet wood and reclaimed bricks.  I love skill sharing so offer it as an option on all my services, but will also be running the occasional targeted workshop for groups of people interested in the same activity.
