Village standards, fifteen minutes from my drive
Teddington runs on high standards quietly held — Edwardian family houses off Broad Street, cottages near the lock, and owners who notice whether the shelf line matches the dado. Fifteen minutes from Hounslow, I’m the handyman who notices too.
TW11 work leans careful: alcove shelving, gallery hanging, original doors kept original — and the laser earning admiring looks on period railings and garden ironwork.
The TW11 menu, carefully
Period features get repaired in character. If a job wants a specialist conservator instead, I’ll say so.

Teddington questions
Do you match work to period features?
Always — profiles matched, fixings chosen for old walls, and finishes that sit with the house. Character is the brief, not the obstacle.
Can the laser restore our garden ironwork?
Beautifully — rust off with the detail intact, primed the same day. See rust removal for the before-and-afters.
Is Teddington in your quick ring?
Yes — fifteen minutes, same-week booking the norm, and single small jobs are absolutely worth the trip.
