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.

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.

Help install some Signs/Banners (Ladder/Drill) - Easy work

$280

Warncoort VIC 3243, Australia

5th Nov 2026

OK – a slightly unusual one, but EASY work for anyone with a bit of handyman experience! 😊 And no, it's not political advertising (thank god!). I'm looking for someone to help me change over some large advertising banners on trailers in the Warncoort area on Sunday 8 November! I've chosen Sunday (yes, I know not ideal) - but Sundays weather looks the best for the week. It's pretty straightforward work, but about 10 times easier (and faster!) with two people rather than me trying to wrestle with everything myself. What's involved? - Unscrewing the rails holding the existing banners in place (using a ladder and drill (I can supply drill - if you have a ladder, great, but I have one (2 ladders helps)). - Sliding the rails off and removing the old banners. - Folding up the old banners for future use. - Sliding the new banners into position – I'll be up the ladder feeding them through, you'll simply help pull them along. - Refitting the rails and screwing everything back into place. And that's pretty much it! The banners are around 6m x 3m, which is really the only reason it's a two-person job. Honestly... I'd allow around 2 hours maximum for the actual work, although I'm hoping we'll knock it over quicker than that if we get a rhythm. If it takes longer, sure, I'll make sure your compensated. You'll also need to allow for travel to Warncoort (hopefully you're reasonably local!). So no... you don't need to be a professional billboard installer. Just someone reasonably handy, practical, reliable and happy to lend a hand. I'll have the banners, tools and equipment ready to go (again, if you have a ladder, great) Easy work, good company (well, I like to think so!) and a straightforward Sunday job for some quick cash. Cheers!
