Every good solution starts with a chat!! My approach is to work closely with clients to provide a bespoke solution in a friendly and positive way. If you find that your Homelife is overwhelming, I can help organise, plan, reduce clutter and generally assist with those annoying roadblocks to keep your home under control. Whether in your current home or preparing and moving to a new home, I have been called upon to reduce the pain by helping to plan for change.
If you need help dealing with your homelife as a result of a recent bereavement, sadly I have had that experience and I understand the pressures and challenges that this can create. Although all situations are unique, I have worked with clients to overcome the issues that are created by the change in circumstances.
Check out below the services and testimonials.
Change of circumstance This maybe be planned or unplanned and dealing with this can be quite a challenge. Whether downsizing, changing your priorities, moving home or needing help to fill the gaps a partner provided. I can help get things back on track. "Do you have an ever growing ‘to do’ list of those jobs you never get round to – boiler service, carpet cleaning, repairs, guttering, freezer defrost, oven clean ……… and as the list grows your stress increases !!I found myself in just that position and Lisa has stepped in and turned that around.Life is stressful and I can’t begin to express what a difference Lisa has made – thank you!!" Samantha
Decluttering It is so easy for ‘stuff’ to build up and easier to ignore than deal with it. Amongst it will be treasured possessions. Let me help work out what is important in your current situation, what may need to time for review, and items no longer required. I can then deliver unwanted items to charity, provide storage solutions to allow your home to be more functional for you, or simply re arrange to put things in back in the right place. "Lisa has revolutionised my house. She is warm, professional and doesn’t judge.! She comes up with creative storage solutions. She is able to take stuff away to charity and or the dump and can research if you need something. I couldn’t think of anyone better to help me get things in control and made me feel so much better that things were getting organised.Lisa you are a total star .. thank you." Katharine
Those Arghh moments! Do any of these ring a bell?
The remote has stopped working and no one to turn to.
Bulbs are going out and need to be changed.
Pictures need to be hung.
A key safe.
Hooks would help in the kitchen, but what fittings do I need?
Sometimes all these small but essential jobs build up. You never know how little things can cause irritation which can be solved with a practical approach. We can work on the solutions, and I have a great handyman. No job is too small!
"I can thoroughly recommend Lisa - she’s versatile, efficient, professional and a breath of fresh air. She’s now in charge of my To Do List and I’m looking forward to her next visit!" Sally
Shopping As part of the service, if you don’t have time to buy the bits and pieces, then I can help. Whether internet, garden centre or a trip to Ikea, this can be arranged.
A new look Want to have a change of décor/ furniture in your home? With my design experience I can provide appropriate suggestions to fit in with your requirements and help source items for you.
"We were delighted by all the fantastic work that Lisa did for us. The decorating that she did herself, was carried out with great attention to detail and expertise, and with efficiency and speed - the end result was exactly what we wanted" Richard
Administration It can be daunting when paperwork gets on top of you. Another pair of hands can help to plough through old paperwork, prioritising, organising and providing filing solutions.
"Lisa has provided me with Administrative Support during a period of significant change in my life including moving house. I have found her to be reliable, efficient and trustworthy. Lisa has also dealt with some confidential matters and I would have no hesitation in engaging her services again in the future." David
A cost-effective solution to pet sitting. Many of my clients plan work around their holidays or work commitments. I can combine agreed work, decorating for example, along with looking after your pets. As I am usually with them for the day, it is welcome company for us both! My pet CV is vast. Along with the usual dogs and cats, try Mice, Horses, Goats and at a push elephants. (well they do not need looking after but there were plenty when I worked in Africa). Plants can be watered too!
"I have been so pleased that l have asked Lisa to decorate the whole house much to the joy of my rather old and grumpy dog who adores Lisa - thank you" "I think our cat Maurice was particularly impressed the day she noticed we had forgotten to feed him and kindly rectified our mistake!" Oonagh
