Are The Public Lacking Basic Handyman Abilities?

(prHWY.com) August 19, 2012 - London, United Kingdom -- Serviceteam are planning to launch an initiative which will give their customers the opportunity to learn basic skills from their engineers as they carry out work on their property.

Â· Serviceteam Ltd is considered one of London's foremost property service companies.

Â· A survey of their consumers confirmed that 80% did not own a basic tool kit.

. Serviceteam plans to launch an initiative to teach people some basic handyman skills.

Having the ability to replace a plug or unblock a sink may come easy to many people, but Serviceteam's recent survey showed that 80% of their customers did not even own a basic tool kit. As new generations take over it would appear that some of these basic skills are being lost but Serviceteam are trying to buck that trend and show their consumers how easy it can be. When one of their engineers is out on a job the client will be given the chance to get shown a basic skill such as putting up a shelf or checking a fuse board. As well as keeping a good relationship with their customers it will help these kinds of "useful to know" skills to be passed on to further generations.

Chris Young, one of Serviceteam's Handymen said: "Being a professional handyman myself I can sometimes take for granted the practical skills I possess, but this survey which they have done really opened my eyes. I am always proud to be in a position to pass on some of the knowledge I have gained to our customers and hope the individual will take the chance to learn a bit more about their home improvements."
