Get your 'ship' together!

Every home has a list, the wobbly shelf, the tap that's been dripping since last year, the flat-pack wardrobe still in its box. All the little jobs that aren't urgent exactly, but that sit there nagging at you every time you walk past.

Rocket Repairs is your first choice Handyman Service in Poole

I'm a one-man operation for now — no call centre, no subcontractors, just me turning up on time, doing the job properly with full insurance and leaving your home tidier than I found it. Think of me as the handy other half you don't currently have living in the house.

We are here to help you

A man with a beard and long hair tied back, wearing a white t-shirt, sitting at a wooden desk in an office. He is looking at and using a tablet. The desk has multiple computer monitors, a laptop, a phone, and office supplies. Two other people are in the background working at their desks.

You're brilliant at your job and have precisely zero interest in spending your one free Saturday wrestling with an Allen key. You want it booked, done, and off your mind by Monday. Book us now and get Rocket Repairs in your diary.

The busy high-flyer

Woman holding a young boy while looking at a laptop in front of a white brick wall.

Between school runs, packed lunches, and keeping small humans entertained, "I'll get round to it" jobs can sit unfinished for months. I'll fit around nap times, come when the kids are at school, and won't mind if I'm working around a toy explosion.

The parent with hands full

A woman with glasses and wavy reddish-brown hair sits in a wheelchair outside a brick house, surrounded by green plants and flowers.

Reaching up to change a light fitting, kneeling to fix a socket, or wrestling a heavy door isn't safe, sensible or possible for everyone. I'll take the physical strain out of it, and I'm happy to talk through jobs in advance so there are no surprises on the day.

Anyone with reduced mobility

Whatever the reason — no time, no tools, no skills, no confidence, or no partner to share the load with.

Skills and Services

Furniture assembly & fitting

Person using a screwdriver to make adjustments on a metal box or appliance that is mounted on a wall.

Flat-pack furniture assembly is a constant in our lives driven by the boom in online furniture shopping, and tricky for some of us to build. If it arrived in a box with 40 unlabelled screws and an instruction leaflet in five languages, I'll build it properly and securely.

Bespoke & custom furniture

Having built campervans I know about fitting furniture into small tight spaces. I design and build furniture tailored to those spaces that off-the-shelf pieces never quite fit — alcoves, under-stairs nooks, loft eaves. I can complete a full 3D design for your furniture so you can visualise your ideas. If it's an odd shape, I can redesign it and make it work for you.

Minor electrical work

Person working on electrical outlet wiring with screwdriver.

Swapping and adding plug sockets, light switches, and fittings is one of the top-requested handyman jobs in the UK — small, everyday tasks that don't need a full rewire but still need doing. We can make your electrics work around your life and appliances.

Small plumbing repairs

Leaking taps, slow drains, broken bathroom sealant, all those small jobs that can turn into a full headache if not dealt with promptly. We can get your plumbing life in order so you can relax.

Door fitting & repairs

Sticking doors, misaligned hinges, and new door installations — they affect security, draughts, and how good your home feels to live in. These are another of our specialities, let us set your threshold straight

Painting & decorating

Around three-quarters of homeowners admit to putting off painting. Whether it's a full room refresh or touching up scuffed walls, I'll bring the brushes and the patience.

A tray with two cans of green paint, a paint roller with a roller cover, and a small wooden plank on a white sheet.

Wall & ceiling patch repairs

Person holding a putty knife, applying white wall paint or spackle to a wall.

Cracks, nail holes, and damaged plaster after a picture frame comes down or furniture gets moved — small patch jobs that make a big difference to how a room looks. our eye for detail and quality finish is where we excel.

Loft improvements

Improve access to your loft space, remove unsafe hatches with no fixed ladders, take the risk out of fetching your christmas decorations, patch up old hatches, add loft insulation and flooring. Get your loft space working for you.
