Reliable and affordable all round property maintenance

Photos from Chris Tye DIY's post 09/09/2026

Working with clients across Beeston, Chilwell and Long Eaton really kept me busy, but did you know I also support businesses?

Over the last year, I have helped businesses freshen up their workspaces with decorating and general maintenance.

If you’re looking for a fresh new look, did you know I can help with painting and decorating, general maintenance, and even tidying up or improving outdoor areas?

A new colour or a refreshed space can make a real difference to how a workplace feels. If it’s on your list, feel free to get in touch and plan ahead - 07563 568904

Hall and stairs all freshly painted and decorated - it’s amazing what a difference a clean, bright finish makes to the heart of a home.

These areas can take a bit of wear and tear, so a refresh now and then really helps keep things looking their best.

Outside security lights are a simple way to give you peace of mind, especially as the darker nights arrive. They make it easier to see your way and deter any unwanted visitors.

Here’s a job I completed, leaving the garden brighter and safer.

Just a little message from me....

I have just returned after having most of August off for summer childcare and family time.

Enquiries have come in and I apologise if I have yet to come back to you. I am working through everything as fast as I can!

A heads up... I am nearly fully booked for September, October and November.

I appreciate everyone's patience.

A fresh line of sealant around the bath doesn’t just look better, it helps keep everything watertight and avoids leaks that can cause bigger problems later. It's the one job everyone puts off.

I replaced the old sealant on this bath and it’s now clean, neat, and ready to use again.

Sometimes maintenance jobs like this make all the difference and that is where I can help you - 07563 568904

Even though we’re still enjoying the last of summer (well sort of), it’s a smart time to start preparing for the colder months.

Loft insulation and boarding not only help keep the heat in (saving money on energy bills), but also give you some extra storage space. This recent job means the client now has a warmer, more efficient home and plenty of room to tuck things away.

A bit of preparation now makes all the difference later.

How many little jobs have been sitting on your to-do list all summer? 🔨

A shelf that needs putting up, a door handle that's loose, a dripping tap, a blind still waiting to be fitted…

Individually, they're only small jobs, but together they can become a list you never quite get around to finishing.

When I say no job is too small, I mean it. Give me your list and let's start ticking them off.

This garage needed a bit of attention. The door was repaired and new soffits added to make everything good again.

Now it’s looking tidy, secure, and better protected against the weather. Sometimes it’s about those finishing touches that keep things working well and looking right.

We're still enjoying summer, but it won't be long before the wetter, colder weather starts creeping back in.

Now is a good time to start thinking about those outside maintenance jobs – checking gutters, repairing fences, looking at window seals, fixing sheds and sorting any small exterior repairs before autumn arrives.

A little preventative maintenance now can help avoid a much bigger job later.

Got something you've been meaning to sort? Let's get it ticked off while the weather is still on our side.

Mist Coating New Plaster – Don’t Skip This Step!

Fresh plaster looking lovely and smooth? Don't be tempted to go straight in with your final paint colour.

A mist coat is an important first step when decorating newly plastered walls. New plaster is very absorbent, so a diluted first coat helps seal the surface and gives your next coats something to properly adhere to.

Skip it and you could end up with paint peeling or flaking later – which means more work to put it right.

It might not be the most exciting part of decorating, but getting the preparation right makes all the difference to the finished result.
