What do handyman services include?
Have some untackled DIY tasks at home that you can’t seem to find time for? Find a highly skilled handyman near you with remarkable customer service by using Airtasker.
Here's a list of some handyman services you might find useful:
Handyman service - general handyman
Start chipping away at that growing list of odd jobs around the house. By hiring a general labour handyman or a small jobs handyman near you, you can get several things done expertly and efficiently. Request your Tasker to help you with tasks like pulling up carpets, replacing light bulbs, or hanging shelves so you can focus on finishing work, running your business, or taking care of your kids.
Handyman service - indoor installations and repairs
Whether you need assistance with installing newly bought homeware or fixing old ones to avoid purchasing replacements, you can hire a handyman to cover for you. Have them work on installing curtain rods and blinds, fitting the kitchen sink, setting up pet doors, and even wallpapering. If a home security system is what you need installed, you can book a separate service to make this happen.
A handyman can also help with soundproofing a room. If you're wondering about soundproofing cost, pricing varies based on materials, room size, and labour—get a quote to find the best option for your budget.
Handyman service - outdoor installations and repairs
Your outdoor setup tends to take a beating, from heavy rains or the messy aftermath of kids playing. Keep your backyard in top shape by getting outdoor items fixed up right. Find a handyman near you who can tackle tasks like setting up your shed foundation, patching up windows, getting your mower back in action, building a garden shed within your budget, and installing some outdoor blinds.
Need extra privacy? You can also have a handyman screen on your porch to create a more secluded and comfortable outdoor space.
Handyman service - bricklaying and building work
If you’re in need of basic home construction, go for handyman services provided by Taskers with ample bricklaying and building experience. These experts can help you build garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or even construct a chicken coop. To maintain these areas, you can also hire Taskers to perform gardening work or brick cleaning as needed.
Handyman service - wall hanging
Want to free up space by mounting your TV or bicycle on the wall? Get a handyman for any wall hanging needs to ensure your furnishings are level and fitted securely. From picture frames and mirrors to heavier electrical items like dryers, count on your Tasker to do a thorough job. Need help with your cable TV wiring? You can also book a service for this on Airtasker.
Handyman service - furniture repair
When booking a repairman for furniture fixes, be specific about the item that needs fixing to make sure you hire the right people. For example, handymen with carpentry experience may be suitable if you’re looking to have your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed repaired. On the other hand, hire a tradie with electrical experience for fixing ceiling fans or digital fitness equipment.
Handyman service - home maintenance
Keeping your home in top-notch condition is a breeze when you have access to regular home maintenance services near you. A local handyman can help with cleaning the gutter, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and working on minor roof repairs. Regular home maintenance can prevent small issues from turning into costly problems, keeping your place looking schmick and running smoothly.

Replacing or Demolishing or Repairing front porch roof and deck
$3,000
Blackburn South VIC, Australia
25th Sep 2025
Roof material: metal; Size: less than 10sqm house: single storey The main supporting post of the porch roof is sinking. It has caused some damage to the wooden deck and railing. The base of the post is cracked and splintered, and the deck boards in that area are also damaged. it is also pulling the railings out of alignment. Some screws have been prised out as a result. Also, during heavy rain, I have noticed leaking from underneath the porch roof. I am unsure whether the roof is worth repairing or if demolition and removal would be the safer option. Although I am open to demolishing the porch roof altogether, I am unsure of the implications of doing so. Please note it's not a easy job and I need a qualified person or company to do the job. Please you are a roof plumber, a carpenter, or another type of tradesperson and think you could do the job, please feel free to contact me. Thank you

Reattach awning bracket
$300
Balwyn VIC, Australia
24th Sep 2025
Hi, I’ve got an outdoor awning bracket that’s come. I need it re-secured properly into the solid brick/concrete behind, not just patched into the render. I’m looking for someone to: 1. Remove the bracket. 2. Chip back to solid substrate. 3. Re-anchor the bracket with either masonry anchors or chemical anchors into the brick/concrete. 4. Patch up the render neatly around the bracket and seal it. It’s a small job, so I just need a quote including your call-out fee, labour, and materials. Can you let me know roughly what it would cost and your availability?


Great job thanks.

Learn basic car maintenance
$100
Doncaster East VIC, Australia
7th Jul 2025
I'd like to learn the basics of how to maintain my car in order to save money on minor servicing. I want to specifically learn how to (if possible): - check + change oil and oil filter - change a tyre - check / replacing air filter - replace wiper blades - change brake fluid - safely adding additives to clean fuel system - replacing lights I understand some of these might require specialised tools and some might best be left up to a professional mechanic. In those instances, I'd just like to learn a bit more about the process so that I can make the best choices when things need repairing. I don't know how much this would cost to teach so please give me a quote. I tried searching for courses / workshops in my area but couldn't find any so thought I'd try Airtasker. Thanks!
