Reliable and Responsible
I am fortunate that, while still relatively young, I’ve been able to reduce my main job to three days a week. As I step into semi-retirement, I find myself with a lifetime of practical experience and a bit of free time on my hands.
When I'm not running, cycling, walking the dog, or working on getting my motorbike licence, I'm ready to tackle all those wee jobs you’ve been putting off.
Covering the Scottish Borders, East Lothian, and Edinburgh. No job is too small (though a few might be too big!). Get in touch to see if I can help.
