Ayr
Your local handyman in Ayr
Ayr is a salt-air town, and salt air decides which jobs come round again and again.
Ayr runs from Georgian and Victorian sandstone in the centre out to the big post-war estates and the villas at Alloway and Doonfoot, with the Firth of Clyde along one whole side of it. That mix means two very different sets of jobs on the same day.
The sea is the thing that marks the work out. Wind off the water goes through a fence line that would stand for years inland, salt eats fixings and hinges, and anything timber facing west needs looking after sooner than it would up the valley. John works out of Stewarton and Ayr is a straight run down, so phone and he will tell you honestly when he can be there.
The jobs that come up in Ayr
- Fence posts and panels down after a westerly off the Firth
- Gutters on tall sandstone terraces and tenement back courts
- Roof repairs where wind has lifted tiles or opened a ridge
- Patios, paths and monoblock gone green in the damp coastal air
- Decking and gates that have weathered faster than they should on the seaward side
- Garden clearances and turf on the bigger plots out at Alloway and Doonfoot

Questions
Common questions about Ayr
Do you come as far as Ayr?
Yes. It is a longer run than the Irvine Valley and it is still on the list. The look and the price stay free.
Is a small job in Ayr worth your while?
Phone and ask. John would rather tell you straight when he can fit it in, often alongside other work on that side of the county, than turn you away.
Do you charge more because of the distance?
No. The price is for the job, you get it before anything starts, and nothing appears at the end that was not agreed at the beginning.
Do you work on the older sandstone properties in the town centre?
Yes — gutters, roof repairs and pointing on older stone is a lot of what he does. If a job genuinely needs a scaffold or a tower rather than ladders, he will tell you that instead of chancing it.
