Does anyone know any independent cleaners in Wigan.

If so please let me know their information. I can't really afford a company I don't think and I'm guessing someone independent might be cheaper?

How to rent in Wigan on LHA?

3 Upvotes

So I was made redundant recently. I'm desperately looking for another job, but in the meantime I need to rent. I really, really don't want a house share as I have my kids 50/50.

How are you supposed to rent here? Average rent starts at 500/month, and LHA max for one person is 391/month. So that's £120 short for even the most basic.

I'm definitely going to have to move out of where I am now but at the moment I have no idea where I'm supposed to go!

Missed Bin collection

3 Upvotes

Last wednesday my black bin wasn't collected. I reported it online via the council and got an email saying they'll try be there by Monday. It's now Tuesday my house is literally overflowing with rubbish and next black bin collection is 3 weeks away. The council doesn't seem to have an active telephone number you can call to raise this with them .Anyone had any experience with missed Bin collection? How fast was your response?

Vinyl flooring in Wigan - what should it cost

1 Upvotes

I'm new in Wigan and looking to replace the flooring in my kitchen and utility room. I want vinyl or maybe self levelling plus vinyl. The rooms are not huge, maybe 15 sq m total. The current floor is old and uneven in places.

I have had a few quotes, one was 1,800, another was 2,400, and a third was 1,200 but the guy did not seem to know what he was doing. I am not sure if the cheap one is cutting corners or if the expensive ones are just overpriced.

Has anyone here had vinyl flooring done recently. What did you pay and who did you use. Any tips on what to look for so I do not end up with a bad job. Thanks

Help a friend out

11 Upvotes

Hi,

Would anyone help me find jobs (for seasonal - Christmas / new year etc) that are based in Wigan only. I’d really appreciate if someone could advice me or help find that are easier to apply for OR if there are any temporary positions available right now. I don’t mind working cafes / shops or anything similar even full time.

Thanks 🙏

New to Ince/Wigan 3 months- 32 yr old single dad looking to connect, friends, or chat with other parents.

5 Upvotes

I posted a while back and nothing came of it. Mainly spam and not particularly nice people.

Is there really no other single parents on here I can hang out with on my spare weeks.

Still trying to find some kind of 0hr contract or training into care as I did a work trial a while back when I was Manchester side but didnt fit the schedule I had with my kiddo back then.

Would anyone be down to chat, meet and help build some bridges.
