  • Tool repair advice

    Hi all

    I wondered if anyone knows where I can get some garden tools fixed/handles replaced in Greenwich/SE London? I've asked at my allotment but no joy.

    Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place

    Thanks

    Pop an advert in your local library. That might bring an odd job man out of his shed! Cheers, Tony.

      Are you a Freecycle member and does your area have a dicussion forum / cafe? Post the question on there.

        When I was a lad (just after the dark ages ) replacing broken shafts/handles also the repair/sharpening of gardening implements were all in the province of the local blacksmith
        He who smiles in the face of adversity,has already decided who to blame

            I've done quite a few handle replacements (as a blacksmith) over the last 15 years so I'd suggest that too. If you ask your local farriers they should be able to put you in touch with a blacksmith, or maybe even do it themselves. Have a look on THE FARRIERS REGISTRATION COUNCIL - Find A Farrier
            it'll give you your closest
