Cal’s awesome!! We’ll definitely have him back for anything in the future. He really knows his stuff. We originally had booked him for our deck and timber facade for an oil/stain, though thankfully he recognised that the facade was really damaged underneath from the past owners’ non maintenance of the house. Hence, if we did a sand back and stain we’d have to go super hard at the timber, or the finish wouldn’t look great. He suggested painting it as the primer meant not as much hard prepping to strip back the timber even more, and it’d last triple the time in our coastal weather. Soooo glad he recommended this, and now both our stained deck and painted facade look a treat! Thanks Cal! 😁

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 are some handyman services you might find useful:


General handyman services

Start chipping away at that growing list of odd jobs around the house. By hiring a general labour handyman, 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.


Indoor installations and repairs

Whether you need assistance with installing newly bought homeware or fixing old ones to avoid purchasing replacements, your hired handyman can 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.


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 garden shed or clothesline, patching up windows, getting your mower back in action, and installing some outdoor blinds.


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.


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.


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.


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.

Learn to cut melamine accurately with track saw

$50

Norlane VIC 3214, Australia

1st Dec 2024

Need an experienced carpenter/joiner to teach me to use a Makita track saw for accurate melamine cuts Task Description: I’m looking for an experienced joiner or carpenter to teach me how to use my Makita track saw to cut melamine accurately for cabinet-making. Currently, I’m facing an issue where my end-to-end measurements are fine, but diagonal measurements are off, resulting in parallelogram-shaped cuts instead of rectangles. My tools and workflow: Enjoywood parallel guides: Used for rip cuts. Spacer or combination square: To remove about 5mm for a clean factory edge. Hongdui T-square: Used to draw parallel lines to the rip-cut edge, followed by manual cuts along the lines. Links to tools: Enjoywood parallel guides: https://banggood.onelink.me/zMT7/u51y1tp4 Hongdui T-square: https://banggood.onelink.me/zMT7/5zdfp3gz I need guidance on solving this issue and making repeatable, precise cuts. The person must have experience with track saws, cabinet-making, and working with melamine. Thank you! --- This should work well for Airtasker.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for an experienced and reliable handyman or contractor to help with a few tasks around the house: 1. Laundry Room Mould Treatment: • There’s mould growing on the bottom part of one wall in the laundry room due to a previous water leakage. • This area may need cleaning, treatment, and repair to prevent further issues. 2. Wall Crack Repairs: • A few cracks on the walls in the living area of the house need to be filled and properly repaired. 3. Bathroom Mould and Repainting: • A small area of mould above the shower on the bathroom wall needs to be treated. • The area will then need repainting with mould-resistant paint. • I’d also appreciate any advice or suggestions on preventing mould in the future. 4. There's some leak on the roof. I can see the water marks on one of the bedrooms which needs to be fixed. I’ve attached images of the affected areas for your reference. If you’re experienced with this kind of work, please provide a quote and let me know when you’re available. Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks!
