How much does a handyman cost in Wandsworth?
A handyman in Wandsworth is charged by time at £60 + VAT for the first 30 minutes and £30 + VAT for each additional 30 minutes, with no call-out fee, so most small jobs are done within the first charge or two. Gas and boiler work is charged separately at £98 + VAT per hour because it is carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Saturday appointments are charged at the same weekday rate with no weekend surcharge.
- £60 + VAT for the first 30 minutes
- £30 + VAT for each additional 30 minutes
- Gas and boiler work £98 + VAT per hour
- Saturday charged at the same weekday rate
- No call-out fee
A worked example: a typical one-hour visit, such as fitting a set of alcove shelves or mounting a TV and hanging a few pictures, is around £90 + VAT. Because so many Wandsworth homes are Victorian terraces with a running list of small jobs, we can combine several tasks in a single visit, which spreads the first-half-hour charge across the lot rather than paying a call-out for each.

Areas of Wandsworth we cover
Silver Saints covers the whole of Wandsworth across SW8, SW11, SW12, SW15, SW17, SW18 and SW19, and the work tends to track the neighbourhood. Battersea and Nine Elms (SW8 and SW11) mix Victorian terraces with riverside and regeneration new-build flats. Balham and Tooting (SW12 and SW17) are dense Victorian terrace country, much of it the family-home belt between Wandsworth and Tooting commons. Earlsfield and Southfields (SW18) are Edwardian and Victorian terraces popular with families, Putney (SW15) runs from riverside flats to hillside houses, and Clapham South sits on the SW12 edge. We name these because the building type drives the job, and a handyman who knows the difference turns up with the right fixings.
The jobs we are most often called to in Wandsworth
The most requested Silver Saints jobs in Wandsworth follow the borough's building stock, which is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing with original fireplaces and sash windows. Alcove shelf fitting either side of a chimney breast is one of our busiest local jobs, fitted on original lime plaster and masonry in the terraces of Balham, Tooting and Earlsfield. Sash window work, cord replacement and draught proofing comes from the same period stock. Central heating power flushing is in steady demand because the older heating systems in these houses build up sludge that causes cold radiators and poor boiler efficiency. Leaks, tap and grout work come from the period bathrooms, and flat-pack assembly, TV mounting and picture hanging come from the riverside and new-build flats in Battersea and Nine Elms.
What working in Wandsworth is actually like
Working in Wandsworth means planning around controlled parking and the borough's busy through-roads, which a local handyman factors into every visit. Most of the terraced streets sit under controlled parking zones with permit or pay bays and no off-street parking, so we plan loading rather than circling. The South Circular, Trinity Road and the one-way systems around Wandsworth Town and Tooting shape how the day is routed between jobs. Conservation areas across parts of Battersea, Clapham and the Tooting Bec side matter for period windows and external doors, where repairing the original timber is usually right rather than replacing it. Battersea and Clapham South in particular have a high density of rental flats, so a lot of our work is between-tenancy turnarounds and landlord compliance booked at short notice. Our handymen are dispatched from across South West London so we can usually reach Wandsworth addresses the same day or next day.
The full range of trades we cover in Wandsworth
Silver Saints is multi-trade, so one visit can cover work that would otherwise need several different tradespeople. We handle plumbing repairs from dripping taps to leaks, electrical work such as sockets, switches and light fittings, alcove and shelf fitting, sash cord replacement and draught proofing of sash windows, flat-pack furniture assembly, TV wall mounting, and Gas Safe central heating power flushing and gas safety certificates. Tell us the full list when you book so the visit is planned to cover it.
Landlords and letting agents in Wandsworth
Silver Saints works with a large number of Wandsworth landlords and letting agents, because Battersea and Clapham South in particular have a high density of rental flats. We carry out Gas Safe gas safety certificates with same-day certificates, handle between-tenancy repair lists in a single visit, and turn around the small compliance and maintenance jobs that managing agents need at short notice. Invoicing and arrival windows are arranged to suit managed portfolios.
