About the area

Your local handyman in New Hartley

New Hartley is remembered across the North East for the 1862 Hartley Pit disaster at the Hester Pit, and the village marks that history with a memorial at the old pit site. Today it is a small, friendly community in the Seaton Valley, made up mostly of terraced streets with some newer homes, a short drive from Seaton Sluice and the coast.

Handy Andrew now covers New Hartley, offering help with the repairs and odd jobs that householders here need. In older terraces we ease sticking doors, repair windows, draught proof, reseal bathrooms and fix kitchen units. Coastal weather means exterior paintwork, gutters and fences need regular attention, and we can handle those too. We also assemble furniture, mount TVs, fit curtain poles and babyproof family homes. We are a small, local business, and we treat every home with care.

Typical homes: Mainly former colliery terraced houses in compact streets, with some post-war and more recent homes.

Handyman New Hartley: common questions

Is New Hartley within your area?

Yes. We have extended our coverage into Northumberland's Seaton Valley, including New Hartley, Seaton Delaval, Seaton Sluice, Holywell and Seghill. Get in touch with a few details and photos of the job, and we will arrange a visit at a time that works for you.

How do I stop draughts in an older terraced house?

Draught excluders on external doors, brush strips on letterboxes, sealing gaps around window frames and fitting draught strips to loose sashes all help. Gaps beneath skirting boards and around pipes can also be sealed. We can look round and suggest simple fixes that make the house noticeably warmer.
