For assembly, note the number and type of items and whether they are boxed at the property. For shelving or a mirror, describe its approximate size and intended position. If you know what the wall is made from, include that information, but do not drill to check. The fixing approach depends on the item, the surface and the agreed job.
For doors and minor joinery, explain what is difficult to use or what needs replacing. For sealant or finishing work, say which room and surface are involved and whether the request is part of a larger repair. A few clear photos can help illustrate the task, but they do not replace an assessment where one is needed.
FastFix lists general property repairs, furniture assembly, shelving, mirrors and wall mounting, doors and handles, minor joinery, sealant, finishing, minor repairs and property maintenance. The Handyman service is for practical smaller tasks. Plumbing, electrical, roofing and other specialist or regulated work should be discussed under the dedicated service rather than treated as a general catch-all.
Before an appointment is discussed, check which items are on site, what needs to be moved to reach the work area and whether any parts or fixings are missing. You can also prioritise the tasks if there are several. This helps define a manageable list without assuming that every job has the same materials, access needs or amount of work.
