Summer holiday pinch.

The handyman industry traditionally quietens down over the school summer holidays. In fact I think the whole of London quietens down over this period. There is noticeably less traffic on my way to work and there seems to be less people out and about in general.

We always expect to feel a slight pinch at this time of year and take between 2 and 5 bookings less per day than we would normally expect to take on average at any other time of the year.

This years summer holidays so far have not actually been that bad for us and we have managed to keep to flow of work a lot more steady than we expected. Sure we have dropped slightly in our bookings but not as much as usual which I think may be down to the fact less people are going abroad for the summer holidays and instead opting to stay in London and use their time over the holidays differently. Weather or not this has something to do with credit crunch I hesitate to say.

I firmly believe that reputation is everything in this industry and no matter what time of year it is we will always strive to offer a service that is second to none and as long as we continue with this our fantastic regular customers will always refer us onto friends, families and colleagues helping keep the steady flow of jobs coming.

Need some help around the house or office Silver Saints' london handymen will be happy to help. We employ the most experienced handymen in London allowing us to take on almost any home and office repair or maintenance.
