Silver Saints - Driveway, patio and deck cleaning - **Coming soon**


Silver Saints - London handyman service took delivery of our new and extremely cool power washer last week and spent some of Friday afternoon testing it out on the driveway of the office. I am please to report the the driveway got blasted clean and we are well impressed with the new washer and are just about ready to start offering its services as one of the specialist tasks our Silver Saint London handymen can take on.

Now that summer is well and truly on the way there surely can be a better time to have the garden deck or patio cleaned with a high pressure washer. Nothing will get you patio, deck, walk way, drive way or conservatory roof cleaner than our machine in the hands on one of expert handymen.

We are in the process of putting together a pricing structure for patio cleaning, deck cleaning and driveway cleaning. Give us a call on 02070999199 or visit our website and be one the first to take advantage of our new pressure washer service.

Shed re-felting


If your garden shed roof is looking a bit tatty and weather beaten there is no better time than the beginning of Summer to have the felt replaced.

The roof felt forms a waterproof layer that stops water penetrating the roof and leaking onto the stuff you keep in the shed but it also keeps the shed roof timber in good nick and ensures it lasts through the seasons.

Re-felting a shed roof is a job that any of our handymen can do so why not give us a call to get an idea of what costs are involved.

Toilet repairs


Toilet repairs is one of Silver Saints - London handyman service's specialities. We have repaired almost every conceivable make of toilet and doubt there is a toilet issue we can't solve.

Just recently we came across a toilet made by Possi Genori that had a faulty filling valve and flush valve. Filling and flush valves are very rarely repairable and 9/10 times need replacing, having done this a hundred times we know that we it comes to filling and flush valves that are not operating as they should be, unless the repair is completely obvious, replacing them should be the first course of action.

Spares for possi Genori toilets aren't available from your local plumbers merchants and if not one the of the current ranges of Possi Genori toilets the spares have to imported from Italy at unbelievable prices and take about 6 weeks to arrive. Most people don't have 6 weeks to wait for their toilet to be repaired so instead we sent Silver Saint Don to the property armed with a description of what was required and few standard parts to see what could be done. 2 hours later the toilet was fully functional with a brand new filling and and flush valve.

If you are having a problem with your toilet give us a call on 02070999199 mention this blog and you will receive a 10% discount off your toilet repairs. Don't forget we also unblock toilets.

Electric shower repairs


Silver Saints - London's professional handyman service are specialists for repairing and replacing electric showers. There is literally no shower we cant repair or replace.

Its important to remember that if you have an old shower the parts may no longer be available in which case we will be able to supply a modern replacement suitable for you current plumbing and electrical connections.

How to book:

If you would like your shower repaired it has to be done over two visits - the 1st to run some tests on the shower to find out what is wrong with it and what requires replacing. We can then get a price on the parts and order them in which normally take a day or two to arrive and we can then fit them on a second visit. Both visits should only last half an hour which is £40+vat per visit. If we arrive and find the shower is not repairable we will advise you of this and provide and cost for a replacement unit which we can then order in for you and fit a second visit. Installing a replacement electric shower normally takes 1 - 2 hours (£60 - £100+vat).
