    At 2oceansvibe we listen to our partners. That’s why we used Homefixers, who we found on Ledula.com. Homefixers can do anything from hanging blinds to building dry walls and impressing your wife.

    They will buy all the materials you need and they will charge you cost price + 30% for that. Or you can get that stuff yourself. Then there’s the hourly rate. I like to get them for a full day (full day rate is R1,950), so I can give them a list as long as my arm to complete in that time. Which they always do.

    Or you do the R135 per half hour. You’ll be amazed what they can do in half an hour.

    Recently they did all this in one day:

    1) Strip all the taps in my new pad (3 bathrooms – all painted different colours – the 80s were awesome)

    2) Paint over all the tiles in the kitchen.

    3) Paint over all the tiles in the bathrooms.

    4) Paint over entire lounge wall brickwork – including correct primer.

    5) Hang up seven blinds.

    6) Fix a broken bed.

    7) Build and fit a new wooden base for another bed.

    8) Remove 10 shelves.

    Now the big questions you need to ask yourself are:

    1) Can you do all of that yourself?

    2) Do you know where to buy all the materials?

    3) Why would you?

    Check out their website homefixers.co.za. This is what they have to say:

    Everyone has a few niggling maintenance issues, and we’ve all been meaning to fix them… soon…

    Whether it’s a tap that drips, a few pictures or a mirror to hang, a light fitting that needs changing or maybe replacing that mouldy grouting for once and for all; each home has something.

    But time is precious, DIY is tough, weekends are for family & friends and you’ve never been able to find a reliable handyman. For one reason or another, these jobs never get done.

    HomeFixers is a Cape Town based professional handy man company. Each handyman is competent, dependable, meticulous and extensively trained. All carry a full range of premium quality tools to ensure that they can resolve each job promptly and effectively. We can also offer you dramatic savings, as we are able to work at a fraction of the cost of specialist plumbers, builders and electricians.

    Our total commitment is to make your life easier, by taking on those jobs that you hate to do. So take a look at how we can help you, or if you already have a job in mind pick up the phone and ring 0860 FIXERS now!

    Full disclosure: The woman in the pic above does not work at Homefixers. In fact, it is highly unlikely any woman will be appearing at your door when they arrive. Except for you, opening the door, of course.
