Outside
Picture a row of houses all of a similar age and all looking fairly similar from the outside. You will find this in a lot of places in our cities, and if you want the house to stand out you have to do something to make it different. That's where Landscaping comes in. Or perhaps you love the house but when you get outside the lifestyle you want is missing, unless of course you like a plain piece of grass! Think what you would need to complete the lifestyle desires about your property? Perhaps a deck? Perhaps a series of retaining walls with specimen shrubs and trees in them. Or perhaps you would like a patio, built in barbecue or simply some privacy screening. We have a team of professionals who can make a deck, put up a fence, build retaining walls in either stone or timber, create paths, patios, pergolas and plantings and much more! Or perhaps you want a barbecue built for a feature on the patio or steps leading down a section. Whatever the landscaping need we can help you. We also have people available who can help with planting advice or help design a layout to the plants. Landscaping is an area that make a simple property look a million dollars and we have the people available who can do it for you. Whether it is small or large, ask us for your next project
Builders come in all shapes and sizes and so does the work they do. Some builders won't do small jobs, others won't do finishing work. Some won't come after they have said they will, and others disappear halfway through. With Grey Skills we can guarantee that this won't happen if you come to us. No job is too small for us and we are happy to do minor repairs, maintenance and finishing work if that is what is needed. On the other hand don't think we are little old men with a screwdriver and hammer! We can & do, carry out larger work as well. We won't build a house for you but we will extend, renovate and re-furbish with the best of them! All our tradesmen are competent and skilled and will carry out good work you will be pleased with. Just ask some of our satisfied clients – there are thousands of them! For your next building or carpentry job why not give us a try?
It seems that everyone is offering different deal these days when it comes to painting. Some places offer ten year guarantees – whether they are still there or not is another matter! Others offer a really cheap job which looks great for about 6 months or so, and then the paint peels, the bubbles start and the mobile phone has changed! With others it's free steak knives or a free pot of paint and so it goes on. We have decided that whether or not we give you a free gizmo won't matter much to you in the long run, but the quality of work will. That's why we use only tradesmen who are experienced in what they do, have a proven track record and are qualified for what they do. We are in our second decade of providing quality work to the thousands of people who have used our services. Every painting job is guaranteed by the tradesman and you have the added fall-back of our office support. We have been around a while now and we are proud of what we have achieved. We aim to be around for a lot longer yet still giving great painting service to our customers. Whether you are looking big or small painting, plastering or any of the associated trades you might need give us a call and see how our experience can work for you. We are sure of one thing – you will get experience at a fair price. You may not get a gizmo, but you will get a good painting job!
One of the complaints we often hear is that people cannot get a good electrician when they need one. If you have a smaller job then often the electrician will say they will do it, but they never seem to show up! When we say we will do a job then you can guarantee that it will be done. We can handle any electrical work around your premises, unless your premises happen to be heavy industrial! Everyone doing electrical work is a qualified electrician whose credentials have been checked and the certificate current. We carry out domestic electrical work, electrical inspection and heat pump work. And it doesn't matter about size either. We have done work from removing a broken bulb in a socket up to a complete house re-wire, we can handle plugs and switches, switchboards and Hot Water cylinders, and if you need a plumber to go with the last one, then we can arrange that for you – no need to hunt for one yourself! And what's more he will turn up as well!
If you want good quality work at a reasonable price done by qualified reliable electricians then look no further, just give us a call.
Everyone has their own horror story about plumbers! They don't come when they are asked, and when they do they charge horrendous amounts just to come and look at your job. They then depart for a valve no one has heard of and only return after several calls and the pipes hanging out over the house! Then six days after they have finished the leak starts again and you are in to the next cycle! A bit harsh maybe but perhaps you can identify with some of that? Well come to us for your plumbing and these problems will be a thing of the past. All our plumbers are currently registered and in fact we won't use them unless we can guarantee that. They will come when they say and they will do a great job on your plumbing. We can cover low and high pressure systems, backflow valves, Hot Water Cylinders, pipes, toilets and cisterns. Then come outside and we can handle the spouting, gutters, pipes and taps. In short if a plumber can do the job then we will be there with a qualified, experienced plumber who won't charge you a small mortgage to do the job! We won't send you a handyman who handles a few washers, we will send you an experienced tradesman you can trust in your home. Plumbing worries are a thing of the past when you use our services
Plastering is one of those things that look easy until you try it! It all looks so easy when a trade plasterer screeds on the plaster & screeds off again to leave a lovely smooth finish! Easy you think, perhaps I can do that myself and save a few dollars! But it's not as easy as it looks and it's not for beginners, and fortunately when you ask for a plasterer from us you won't get a beginner, you will get a tradesman experienced in the work who can do large or small areas with ease. We handle all types of plastering and Gib stopping and finishing is a specialty that will leave you with a lovely smooth surface to paint – or of course ask our painters!
Asking for a handyman is a bit like asking how long is a piece of string! Some can do only the very basics, others can do most things up to the level of a builder. Then you can have a handyman who can paint, a handyman who can fix spouting, or one who can go far beyond the basic fix a hinge or plane a door. We have a number of handymen and no job is too small for them, nor too large. Amongst their specialised skills our handymen can fit out kitchens, bathrooms and garages as well as make and build fitments for the rooms. Depending upon the area we can design and make pieces of furniture and we are justifiably proud of the all -round skills that we can show in our handymen. They go far beyond the little old man with a screwdriver and a couple of nails.
We can handle the very small handyman job and then grow in capacity if the job gets bigger and more complicated. For Landlords we can offer a very handy service. Often there will be string of smaller jobs that might need a locksmith, carpenter, painter, plasterer and so on. The problem is that on their own the job may not be big enough to attract a specialist tradesman and that can result in frustrated landlords and unhappy tenants. However our handymen can bridge the gap and at a reasonably short notice too. Service is the aim and all the jobs that fall between stools are taken up by our experienced and highly effective force of quality handymen
