Handy Ady was founded in 2020 by Ady Weightman, after deciding he wanted a change from his career in Management Consulting.

Since he was a child, Ady has been fascinated by how things work, and would always rather explore problems and try to fix things himself, rather than employ someone to do it – a challenge when working full time in a stressful job!

Ady’s practical skills range are divided into two main areas – fixing things with wheels – vehicle maintenance (including vintage scooter restoration), bicycle repair etc, and fixing things without wheels – i.e. fixing problems at home or with buildings and their fixtures and fittings.

Over the the years, Ady has gained experience in the following practical areas:

• Carpentry & Joinery
• General Construction
• Glazing
• Plumbing (excluding gas works)
• Electrical work (under the guidance of qualified electricians)
• General household maintenance
• Tiling
• Roofing
• Vehicle repairs (Cars, Vans, Motorbikes and Scooters)

An extremely practical person, Ady is a born problem solver, and prides himself in being able to investigate a problem and come up with a viable solution, before making things happen.
