Clicky version:
http://www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/
(You added two many spaces!) (edit - you fixed it ;))
It is a very busy homepage with lots of information and bright colours
Firefox tells me you have around 35 images on the homepage, this could cause a problem for dialup users, who would have to wait a while to download it all!
There is a wealth of information on this site which would be very helpful for people but it seems quite a trek round the site to find what you need to know.
Maybe have the search function on the site at the top, in the same location on every page to help find information.
When using images, such as the big yellow box, you could do the same effect with CSS and save yourself another image, it is also best not to have text in an image as search engines can not read it, nor can people with images turned off, or using blind-reading browsers.
While the background adds effect most people prefer having a simple solid color background, which is not only eaiser on the eye, it also downloads quicker!
If you can get this site a bit more user friendly it would be brilliant site
