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.

Handyman / Chippie to remove wall panels

$500

Lilyfield NSW, Australia

4th Nov 2025

Handyman or Chippie wanted to remove wall panels from foyer wall. Panels were screwed and liquid nailed in about 2 years ago. Need someone to remove the panels, stack them on the ground (as they may be reused elsehere if possible) and scrape any excess glue off the plywood walls underneath. Tall ladder on site so no need to bring your own. Wall measures 8 metres in height and I accept that the wall underneath may be damaged which is fine as it is going to be recladded with a new surface in the coming months. Requires 1 handyman for best part of a whole day therefore setting the job as a full day rate and if you get the job done sooner, then bonus to you, I’ll still pay the day rate regardless of whether you work 8 hours or 2. Flexible with date, but ideally before sunday. Thank you for considering this job.

Lachlan was a great Airtasker. He put in a lot of time and dedication to get the job done. Thank you very much.

Hello, We are looking for an experienced locksmith or a skilled handyman to supply and replace a loose and worn door handle at our retail store, in Westfield Burwood.

Please note: The successful contractor MUST supply the new replacement door handle set. The cost for this hardware must be included in your final offer. Requirements: - MUST have experience with installing commercial door hardware and locksets. - You must supply all your own tools AND the new replacement handle set (as mentioned above). - Ability to work cleanly and professionally within a live retail environment. - Public liability insurance is required. Location & Timing: Location: Ground Level, Shop 118, Westfield Burwood, 100 Burwood Road, Burwood NSW 2134 (exact location will be provided once the task is assigned). When: As this is a staff safety concern, we need this fixed as soon as possible. Please state your availability in your offer. Please provide a comprehensive quote for the complete job.
