About me

Hi, I'm your odd job man πŸ‘‹

I'm based in Roselands, Paignton, and I'm a proper jack of all trades. Cleaning, lifting, sorting, fixing the Wi-Fi: if it needs doing and you'd rather not, I'm your man.

When I'm not doing odd jobs, I'm building things on my computer. I love making websites, apps and games, and I've built a few that anyone can use for free. That's where the tech help comes from too: I enjoy it, and I'm patient with it.

Jack of all trades, master of none… but I can build you a website!

Want something built?

The same "you point, I do" idea, just on a screen, and I'll show you how as we go.

A Christmas present nobody else has

Build the kids their own game, app or website, together. I sit with you (and them) and go through it step by step: their name on it, their ideas in it, their favourite characters, colours and levels. You're in charge of how it's made.

The only present that comes with a "made just for me" level.

Makers & hobbyists: build YOUR brand

Making bits and selling on Etsy or marketplace apps, with most of your customers local anyway? I'll sit with you and help you set up your own website and shop, one step at a time, so you understand it and can update it yourself after.

Your brand, not theirs.

Old laptop crawling? Don't bin it

If an old office PC or laptop has 2 GB of memory or more, I can bring it back to life with my own simple, lightweight system. At the very least you'll get a quick web browser and somewhere to watch videos, look at photos and play music. Perfect for grandparents, kids, or the kitchen.

⚠️ At your own risk. Old devices can fail at any time, and working on them can sometimes finish them off. They're not covered by me or my insurance. It's a calculated risk: if it already does nothing, let's try to bring it back.

Cheaper than new, and kinder to the planet.

Free and cheap AI, set up for you

AI helpers can write letters, explain forms, plan meals and answer questions. I'll set up a free or low-cost one on your phone or computer, then sit with you and show you how to use it safely and what not to share with it.

No jargon, just a helpful new tool.

We do it together, at my normal hourly rate.

I don't just build it and disappear. I sit with you and go through every step, so you know how it works and can carry on yourself. Tell me your idea and I'll give you an honest estimate of the hours before we start (Β£14 first hour, then Β£12.71/hr, launch prices). You own whatever we make once it's paid for.
