About the area

Your local handyman in Ashington

Once known as the biggest coal-mining village in the world, Ashington still has its long colliery terraces alongside newer estates built over the past few decades. Handy Andrew travels up from Newcastle to help homeowners and landlords across the town with the small jobs that never seem to get done.

In the older terraced streets that might mean rehanging back doors, fixing gates in rear lanes, easing windows or boxing in pipework. On newer estates, it is more often flat-pack assembly, TV wall mounting, fence repairs after a windy spell or a fresh coat of paint. We handle minor repairs and odd jobs rather than electrical, gas or structural work, which keeps things simple and affordable for you. If you have a list of tasks, we can usually get through several in one visit. Call 07960 485 880 to book.

Typical homes: Long rows of former colliery terraces near the town centre, with 20th-century council housing and more recent private estates on the outskirts.

Services people in Ashington often need

Handyman Ashington: common questions

Do you cover Ashington from Newcastle?

Yes. Ashington is a little further out than our core Newcastle area, so we find it works best to group a few jobs into one visit. Send us your list in advance and we can plan the time needed and bring the right materials.

Can you repair fences in Ashington?

We can. Fence panels and posts take a battering from the winds that come in off the coast, and we regularly replace broken panels, refit loose posts and fix gates that no longer close. If the whole fence needs replacing, we can talk through options.

How do I get a quote for a job in Ashington?

Send a short description and a few photos through our quote form, or call or WhatsApp 07960 485 880. Tell us your postcode (NE63 area) and when suits you, and Handy Andrew will come back with a clear quote. Several small jobs can usually be done in one visit.
