About the area

Your local handyman in St Anthony's

Perched on the slopes above the Tyne in Newcastle's east end, St Anthony's mixes long-established family homes with newer developments that make the most of the river views. That hillside position looks great, but it also means gardens on a slope, fences that take the brunt of the wind and exterior woodwork that weathers faster than you might expect.

We help householders here with the practical jobs that keep a home in good order. Typical requests include replacing blown fence panels, repairing garden gates, jet washing paths and patios, and clearing or refixing guttering. Inside, we fit flat-pack furniture, hang doors, mount TVs and reseal bathrooms. If you live in St Anthony's and have a list of small repairs that never seems to shrink, Handy Andrew can work through it in one visit, leaving the place tidy when we go.

Typical homes: A mix of interwar and post-war semi-detached and terraced homes alongside newer housing developments on the slopes overlooking the River Tyne.

Services people in St Anthony's often need

Handyman St Anthony's: common questions

My garden slopes steeply. Can you still fit fencing?

Yes. Sloping plots are common around St Anthony's, and fence panels can be stepped down the hill so they sit level while following the ground. We will look at the run of the fence, the condition of existing posts and how exposed it is to wind before recommending the best way to fix or replace it.

Do you take on several small jobs in one visit?

Absolutely. Most of our visits involve a short list rather than a single task, such as a dripping tap, a loose banister, a shelf to put up and a gate that will not latch. Send us the list beforehand and we can estimate the time needed and bring the right materials.

How do I get a quote for a job in St Anthony's?

Send a short description and a few photos through our quote form, or call or WhatsApp 07960 485 880. Tell us your postcode (NE6 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.

Got a job that needs doing?

Tell Andrew what needs fixing – send a couple of photos and you’ll get a clear quote. One visit can sort several small jobs.
