HOME & PROPERTY
Practical help around your home or property
Sometimes you just need someone reliable to come in, take a look and get the job done properly.
Through JB Services, I provide a range of practical home and property services across Taupō and surrounding areas, from small repairs and maintenance through to curtains and blinds, cleaning, and overnight house and pet sitting.
You deal directly with me, so there is no call centre, no long chain of contractors and no confusion about who is responsible for the job.
PROPERTY REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE
Small jobs, practical fixes and general maintenance
Not every job needs a large building company.
I can help with a wide range of smaller property repairs and maintenance tasks, including those jobs that have been sitting on the list for a little too long.
Depending on the job, this can include:
Minor repairs and maintenance
Fixtures and fittings
Shelving and small installations
Basic household repairs
General property upkeep
Assembly and installation work
Small maintenance jobs for rental or commercial properties
Odd jobs that do not fit neatly into another category
If you are unsure whether the job is something I can help with, ask.
If it is within my skill set, I will let you know. If it needs a specialist trade, I will tell you that too.
CURTAINS & BLINDS
Installation, repairs and practical solutions
Curtains and blinds can often be repaired or adjusted without needing to replace the whole lot.
Through CBRI, Curtain & Blind Repair, Supply and Install, I provide specialist support with curtain and blind installation, repairs and maintenance and can replace when needed.
Services can include:
Curtain track and rod installation
Blind installation
Roman blind restringing
Curtain repairs and adjustments
Blind repairs
Curtain hanging
Replacing or repairing fittings
Advice on practical repair options
This is one of the more specialised areas of JB Services, and I work with both residential and commercial clients.
HOUSE & PET SITTING
Someone you can trust to stay while you are away
My house and pet sitting service is a little different from a traditional pet-care business.
I generally provide overnight stays, usually for a minimum of five nights, so your pets can remain in their own home and your property continues to look lived in while you are away.
I can help with:
Feeding
Litter trays
Brushing
Cuddles and company
Play and exercise
Medication
Diabetes monitoring and insulin injections where required
Collecting mail
Opening and closing curtains
Watering plants
Keeping your home secure and lived in
Leaving your home as you left it
I do not try to offer every service a larger pet-care company might provide. The focus is simple: look after your pets, look after your home, and give you peace of mind while you are away.

GOT AN ODD JOB?
Not every job needs its own service category
One of the useful things about JB Services is that I do not mind the jobs that are a little difficult to categorise.
You may need something assembled.
Something fixed.
Something shifted.
Something installed.
Or simply someone practical to take a look and work out what needs to happen next.
If you are thinking:
“I wonder if JB could do this?”
Ask.
That is usually the easiest place to start.
WHY USE JB SERVICES?
Local. Practical. Straightforward.
YOU DEAL DIRECTLY WITH ME
When you contact JB Services, you are dealing directly with the person doing or managing the work.
SMALL JOBS ARE WELCOME
Not every job needs to become a major project.
CLEAR COMMUNICATION
I will tell you what I can do, what I cannot do, and when something needs a qualified specialist.
FLEXIBLE SUPPORT
Some jobs fit neatly into a category. Others do not. I am happy to look at both.
TAUPŌ BASED
Local service with an understanding of the area and the people who live here.
WORKING WITH SPECIALIST TRADES
There are some jobs I will not undertake.
Electrical, plumbing, gas fitting, structural building work and other regulated or specialist work should be carried out by appropriately qualified tradespeople.
If a job falls outside my experience, qualifications or scope, I will tell you.
My aim is not to say yes to everything.
It is to help you find the right solution.
