What can Ian do for you?
Services
From moving the heavy stuff to walking your dog, Ian (and the boys) have got you covered. Here's a list of what they can help with, but honestly, if it's not on here, just ask.
Driving & Deliveries
Need a run to the tip, a pickup from Bunnings, or a lift somewhere? Ian will get you and your things from A to B safely and on time.
Dog Walking
Your furry best friend deserves a good walk. Ian loves dogs and will make sure yours gets plenty of exercise and fresh air along the bayside.
Gardening
Pruning, weeding, planting, tidying up the yard. Ian will get your garden looking shipshape, no green thumb required on your end.
Lawn Mowing
The triplets, Ollie, Finn, and Hugh, mow lawns with great gusto. Three boys, one mower, a perfectly cut lawn every time.
General Repairs
Loose shelves, wobbly table legs, things that need tightening or fixing. Those little jobs you keep putting off? Ian will sort them out.
Dog Sitting
Dogs love company, and Ian's got a friendly dog called Arlo who loves a buddy. Ian will keep your dog company, feed them, walk them, and make sure they're happy while you're out or away.
Rubbish Removal
Green waste, old furniture, general clean-up. Ian will load it up and take it to the tip so you don't have to.
Assembly & Installation
Flat-pack furniture, shelving units, curtain rods, picture hanging. If it comes in pieces, Ian will put it together properly.
Shopping Companion
Ian will take you shopping the old fashioned way, push the trolley, carry the bags, and help you navigate the aisles. No apps, no algorithms, just a real human being with emotional intelligence (not AI) by your side. Real man, real physical help.
Bins Out & Back
Going away or just can't manage it? Ian will put your bins out on collection day and bring them back in. Simple but handy.
Home Helper
A bit of everything around the house. Changing light bulbs, replacing smoke alarm batteries, watering plants while you're away, collecting the mail. Just ask.
Decluttering & Life Laundry
Ian is a very tidy man. He loves decluttering, sorting, and giving things a proper place. Garage need a sort-out? Wardrobe bursting? Shed seen better days? Post-party clean-up? Ian will roll up his sleeves and get everything organised, tidy, and breathing again.
Window & Gutter Cleaning
Clearing gutters before winter, washing windows inside and out. Ian handles the jobs that involve ladders so you don't have to climb.
Car Wash
Your car looking a bit worse for wear? Ian will give it a good wash and tidy up the interior. The boys can help with this one too.
Tennis Buddy
Ian loves his tennis. He'll pick you up, drive you to the courts, have a hit with you, and drop you home afterwards. A top morning out, sorted.
Don't see what you need? Give Ian a call and he'll let you know if he can help.
Meet Ian
A Geordie in Melbourne,
with triplets and a toolbox.
Ian is 56, born and bred in Newcastle upon Tyne in the North of England, a proper Geordie. He's broad, tall, bald, and built for hard work, with a warm heart and a can-do attitude that comes straight from his Northern roots.
He's the proud father of triplet boys, Ollie, Finn, and Hugh, who are now 13 and full of energy. The boys chip in too, mowing lawns with great gusto and learning the value of a hard day's work from their dad.
Ian and his partner Georgia moved to Melbourne's bayside in 2017, drawn by the coastline, the community, and the quality of life. He loves being present with his kids, supporting the local community, and being the kind of neighbour who's always ready to lend a hand.
“Everyday jobs, sorted, pet. If it's only an hour, it's an hour. If it's more, just let me know.”
