I had a few odd jobs around the house that I had been putting off for weeks, and The Better Handyman Ilford Ltd was a total lifesaver. They fixed a leaky tap, put up some shelves, and even helped with assembling some furniture. The handyman was professional, friendly, and worked efficiently. The pricing was clear, and I appreciated that they cleaned up afterward. I’ll definitely be calling them again for any future repairs. Great job!

I’ve already recommended them to my colleagues and will use them again for any future work.

A shelf or cabinet that isn’t correctly installed poses a genuine risk to your property and your family. Our professional mounting service in Ilford prioritises safety above all else. Before we drill, we use electronic scanners to locate hidden pipes, electric cables, or wooden studs, ensuring the installation is as safe as it is secure.
We pride ourselves on a clean working environment. Using dust-capture tools, we minimise the mess caused by drilling into masonry or plaster, leaving your home as tidy as when we arrived. Once the mounting is complete, we perform a weight-test to confirm the fixings are solid, giving you total peace of mind that your storage is built to last.
In many Ilford homes, walls are a mix of traditional masonry and modern partition boards. Installing a shelf that stays level under the weight of books or kitchenware requires an understanding of these materials and the specific anchors they demand. Our team doesn’t rely on the basic plastic plugs often found in retail kits; we use professional-grade fixings tailored to your wall type to prevent the sagging or pull-out that can damage your decor.
We treat every project with a methodical approach, ensuring that your storage is not only functional but aesthetically pleasing. We use laser levels to ensure perfect horizontal alignment, particularly when installing multiple tiers of shelving or a row of cabinets where even a slight tilt would be noticeable.
Our local technicians are experienced in installing a wide variety of storage systems, including:
Kitchen and bathroom cabinets: Ensuring upper units are securely anchored and perfectly aligned for a seamless finish.
Floating shelves: Expertly installing hidden brackets to create a clean, minimalist look without compromising on weight capacity.
Modular shelving units: Building and mounting multi-part systems (such as IKEA Kallax or bespoke rails) to ensure they are plumb and sturdy.
Heavy-duty garage storage: Using industrial-grade fixings to mount tool racks and heavy shelving on solid masonry or timber studs.
Media and display units: Securing wall-mounted consoles and display ledges to handle expensive electronics and fragile collectibles.
