Single-visit jobs done properly — a leaking mixer, a dead socket, a door that will not close, a shelf that needs putting up. Same tradesmen, same standard, no minimum project size.

The Jobs Nobody Wants to Quote
Most contractors treat a two-hour job as a nuisance. It gets a rushed price, a vague arrival window, and whoever happened to be free that morning.
ALHUD runs small works with the same tradesmen who do the renovation projects, on a booked time slot. That matters more than it sounds: the person fitting your mixer is the person who understands why the old one failed, and will tell you if the problem is actually the isolation valve behind it.
- Booked time slots rather than open-ended arrival windows
- Priced before work starts, including materials
- Licensed tradesmen, not general labour
- Common spare parts carried so most jobs finish first visit
- Work area cleaned and waste removed
- The same 12-month workmanship warranty as larger jobs

Booking
How Small Repairs Work
Four steps, usually inside two days.
01
Describe the job
Call or send a photo on WhatsApp. A photo of the fitting or the fault usually answers half the questions.
02
Get a price
Most common jobs are priced over the phone. Anything unclear gets confirmed on arrival before work starts.
03
Booked slot
A time slot is agreed rather than a whole-day window, so you are not waiting around for someone to appear.
04
Done and cleaned
Job completed, area cleaned, waste taken away, and the same workmanship warranty as a full renovation.
Common questions
Handyman & Small Repairs Questions, Answered
Is there a minimum charge for small jobs?
There is a minimum call-out that covers travel and the first hour on site, which is standard across the trade. Where several small jobs are booked into the same visit, that cost is spread across all of them rather than charged per item.
Can you do several small jobs in one visit?
Yes, and it is the most economical way to use the service. Send a list — the taps, the socket, the two doors and the shelving — and ALHUD will send the right trade or trades and price the whole visit.
Do you supply the parts?
Common items such as mixers, hoses, sockets, hinges and runners are carried or sourced on the day. For specific brands or matching an existing finish, buying the part yourself is often faster.
How quickly can someone come?
Usually within 24 to 48 hours for standard repairs, and same-day for active leaks or power faults where a team is available. Contracted maintenance clients get priority.
