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.

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.

Temporary fix/replace of outdoor blind for window

$120

Prospect SA 5082, Australia

28th Aug 2026

Replace broken outdoor blind, cheap temporary solution: I’m looking for someone to remove/replace the existing broken outdoor window blind shown in the photo. I’m not looking for an expensive custom blind at this stage, I just need a cheap, practical temporary solution for summer to provide shade and reduce heat through the window. Very happy with something basic such as a bamboo/reed outdoor blind, simple roll-up shade or similar inexpensive option. It does not need a winding mechanism, I’m completely happy to manually roll it up and secure/tie it when needed. Ideally looking for someone who can: * Remove or make safe the existing broken blind/awning * Measure the window and recommend/source a cheap suitable replacement * Install it securely to the brick/existing structure * Keep the solution as inexpensive as possible Will reimburse the cost of the blind/materials separately with receipt. This is intended as a temporary solution until I can afford to have a more permanent professional blind installed. I do have an old bamboo blind that could be used but also happy to fund alternative suggested material as negotiated.

Thorough clean and maintenance (oiling) of metal security trellis gates. Preferably someone that has experience working with this product. https://www.trellisdoors.com.au/product/home-security-doors/sliding-doors/french-doors-s02 RECOMMENDED CLEANING METHOD : 1. Dip a soft cloth into a diluted mixture of soap and water and wipe down the entire unit. 2. Dry off the unit using a similar soft cloth or chamois. 3. Always lubricate the moving parts of the product after cleaning. Use a lubricating SILICONE spray for this purpose, purchased from any hardware store. 4. Should the cylinder lock become a bit difficult to use, then try a DRY lubricant. WHAT NOT TO DO : 1. Never use detergent or abrasive cleaners like Dishwashing liquid, thinners etc. as this will affect the longevity of the product. 2. Avoid using lubricants like WD40 or Q20 as these products tend to attract dust, and will affect the moving parts in the long term.
