While most of London had the day off on Monday courtesy of mother nature some of our handymen were still hard at work. All of our handymen travel around on either large motorbikes or bicycles so they are really exposed to the elements and far more adversely affected by the snow than your average tradesman in a van but this did not stop some of handymen getting on with their working day. Most of our handymen live in suburban London and understandably were unable to make it into work on Monday and Tuesday but one or two of our guys refused to let a little bit of snow ruin the start to their working week and managed to walk to some of their jobs. Now that's what I call dedication and its what you can expect every time you use London's premier handyman service - Silver Saints. Extreme Pidgeon Proofing
Source: Silver Saints The job was to fit pigeon spikes to the horizontal pipes that feed into each floor of the property. A few weeks back I posted a blog entry on a job that required us to abseil from the 3rd floor balcony of a customers house. The job was to fit pigeon spikes to the horizontal pipes that feed into each floor of the property.
The customer, as with most of her neighbours had built a conservatory onto the back of her property that covered most of the garden. This caused two problems, the first was that pipes provided the perfect place for pigeons to perch out of the wind over night, this meant that every time one of the pigeons relieved itself it relieved itself onto the glass conservatory roof. The second was that because the conservatory covered most of the back yard we could not use a ladder to gain access to the pipes or to clean the conservatory roof.
The only way to clean the roof and gain access to the pipes was from above, so we bounced the problem around the office and came up with a plan.A few months back a friend got me interested in the sport of climbing and after a few trips to the Castle indoor climbing centre in north London I was hooked. I kitted myself out with all the necessary harness, belay devices, etc so felt confident the best way to tackle the problem was to set up a rig from the third floor balcony and abseil one of my handymen (Manfred) down to the pipes.
After waiting for all the materials to arrive in our office and favourable weather the job eventually went ahead last week Friday and was a huge success. We set up an extremely safe rig and abseiled Manfred down all 3 floors several times. We even landed up washing the conservatory roof with a pressure washer which we suspend from a rope.
Another job well done which virtually no other handyman service would take on.
