Kennington is a village about three miles south of Oxford, between the Thames and the A34, with mostly 1950s and 1960s houses and bungalows. Homes of this age often have original doors, windows and kitchens that need attention: doors that stick, locks that need replacing, and bathrooms and kitchens ready for a refresh. Flooring is another common update, swapping old carpet for laminate or vinyl that is easier to keep clean. Kennington is quick to reach from Oxford, so small jobs are always welcome.

What local customers say
After being recommended by a friend, Mike fitted some blinds to our bifold doors. We experienced very fast service from start to finish and Mike was always quick to reply to emails. Mike was very polite and professional with his work and very adaptable - being happy to visit on evenings and weekends, fitting in with our busy family life. We will definitely be using Mike again in the future and would highly recommend.
