I restore things.

Did the cat knock over your favourite vase? Did you have works done and can’t find any of those 19th century Cement tiles to match up in your hallway? I can paint/patch/match in all sorts of materials.
Self taught - not professionally perfect but sympathetic and reversible repairs at a reasonable price or possibly an exchange of services.

This lovely old snake jug dates from around 1820. It had been knocked over by the owners cat. It had previous repairs - the snake head was in plaster and the handle had been stapled on but it literally fell off in my hand. It had been glued /plastered on before. I spent quite a while chipping off the old glue so the handle would lay flush to the jug. Finally I could glue on the head and then I patched in the gap between it and the handle with plaster and painted over the join. After regluing the whole thing there were some chips off the body which I filled and matched in.
The owners were very happy and I will be getting some lamb in exchange for the repairs :)😋
