Yao was professional from the first communication through to completion of the job. He arrived on time, checked in with me during the day (as I was not there the whole time) and did a great job of redoing silicone, patching and painting plaster and sanding/varnishing door. He also cleaned up once he was done. Would recommend and would use him again!

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.

Blinds Fixing in Carlton Events Space
$100
Carlton VIC, Australia
13th Oct 2025
We have an events space in Carlton Melbourne where one of our blinds' pulleys has come undone. There is no ladder onsite tall enough to reach the top of the blinds to get the pulley back on. We would likely need a 3M ladder to be brought onsite to reattach and ensure the pulley can be used properly. At the moment the blinds are stuck down as a result of the pulley coming off. Please see photos for more details.


Elson helped identify an issue we didn't know we had, is helping to order the part, and will come back onsite to fix properly. Very appreciative and will look to use him for future jobs.

Help me connect a water filter to my kitchen sink
$100
Armadale VIC, Australia
7th Oct 2025
I have purchased a water filter https://bwtaustralia.com.au/product-items/bestmax-premium/ With this head unit, https://www.bwt-wam.com/en/products/connection-technology/bwt-besthead/ I’ve connected it with some push fit connectors to step down from 1/2” to 3/8” and back up, but I seem to be getting a leak here where the it steps back up to 1/2. The leak is not as bad as pictured in the photo. I added teflon tape which helps, but there is still a very small leak. I feel as though I’m pretty close, but also happy for someone to overhaul the plastic push fit for braided stainless steel and brass connections which might actually be a better fit.

Blind curtains maintenance
$200
Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia
7th Oct 2025
Hi Dannis, I noticed your offer on my curtain maintenance task isn’t showing anymore, so I just wanted to check in directly. I’m still keen to have you take a look — your services seemed great. In the same CBD apartment, I also have a plumbing issue: the hot water takes several minutes to reach all the sinks. Would you be able to check both the curtains and this during one visit? Ideally! Are you available tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon? Visits to this place are a bit tricky to arrange, but if you can’t tomorrow, we can work it out. Please note that I offer $200 since it was the offer I made when posting the task, but I know there may be extras associated with the job you have to do. Please note this is jot just one time job, there may be more jobs coming from now on and having a reliable person like you, will help. Thanks so much, Natalia
