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.

Assembly of 5 hatstands & dispose of old

$320

Sydney, New South Wales

21st Aug 2025

This task is an onsite physical job to be completed in a large souvenirs/Gift Retail store in the Gateway Plaza, Macquarie Place Circular Quay, Sydney NSW on Thursday 28th August. Meeting onsite and on time at 9am! The store is open for trade, so the person needs to be efficient, neat and tidy as they work. The job is to assemble 5 wooden hat stands and dispose of the boxes they come in AND the current old wooden stands in store (refer to photos). The hat stands are very straight forward and compose of 2 ‘branch like’ wooden structures that slide into each other to form a stand (like a tree) and then are secured to a base using a hex screw (refer to last photo of instruction). Then each stand required the hat supports to be attached on the ends (24 per stand). Refer to photos of the stands and instruction page attached. Just to clarify, the cartons, internal packaging and the 5 stands need to be disposed of to tip by the successful AT. They should come with own tools and transport (such as a van or ute) suitable to remove the boxes offsite and take to tip/recycling centre. There will be a sales rep onsite to co-ordinate and will be merchandising the stands as each one is built.

Howard is a friendly, efficient and professional Airtasker. He has excellent communication and I felt very confident having him do the work. I would highly recommend Howard and I will think of him for any future jobs! Thanks again.
