The list of jobs that never gets done, sorted by one reliable person, inside the house and out.

Most houses have a list. The door that sticks, the gate that will not shut, the cracked tile, the shelf that has been leaning against the wall since you moved in. None of them is big enough to get a tradesman out, and together they never get done. Gordon's takes the whole list in one visit across Trowbridge, Westbury, Bradford-on-Avon and Melksham.

Because Matt also does carpentry, tiling, decorating and garden work, the list does not have to stop at the front door. A fence panel, a blocked gutter and a bit of decorating can all go on the same booking.

Real jobs from the list

Recent jobs include replacing a broken air brick and splicing new timber into a damaged door frame rather than replacing the whole frame. One customer had a gate that needed altering to fit a tricky space. Another had a porch floor that needed levelling, then tiling, with new skirting and a window cill fitted on the same visit.

None of those is a big job. All of them need doing properly, and all of them are the sort of thing that is hard to get anyone to come out for.

When the job turns out to be bigger

Sometimes the sticking door is a symptom of something else, or the list grows once the work starts. Because Gordon's also handles renovations, kitchens and bathrooms and decorating, you will get a straight answer about what is needed and can have it done by the same person.

Matt did a fantastic job of levelling my porch floor then tiled it and put skirting around also put in a window cill. He was very professional, polite and cleaned up after himself. I would highly recommend him and will undoubtedly be using him again for any future work I need doing. Great maticulous work.
