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.

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.

Outdoor blinds installation

Salisbury QLD 4107, Australia

8th May 2026

Looking for installer for outdoor insect mesh blinds/screens – Brisbane Hi, I am looking for an experienced installer to help enclose the alfresco / outdoor living area at my house in Brisbane to reduce flies and insects while still allowing airflow. I am considering purchasing the outdoor blinds/screens separately myself, so I am primarily seeking installation quotes. However, I am also open to supply-and-install options if available. The area to be enclosed is the ground floor “Outdoor Living” area and includes approximately: • Front/main opening: 7.1m wide • Side opening 1: 3.0m wide • Side opening 2: 3.0m wide Total approximate coverage required is 13.1 lineal metres, subject to site measure. I am interested in insect mesh zip-track / side-retained outdoor blinds/screens with proper side channels and bottom seals to minimise gaps for flies and insects. For the 7.1m front opening, I would appreciate advice on whether this should be split into 2 or 3 separate screens. For one of the side openings, I may also need an access solution such as: • hinged screen door • sliding screen door • double doors or another recommended option. Please let me know: • whether you offer installation only or supply + install • experience with zip-track / outdoor screen systems • estimated lead times • whether you can assist with site measure and product recommendations • what is included in your quote (tracks, pelmets, posts/framing, hardware, seals etc.) Happy to provide photos, plans and measurements. Thanks, Panashe
