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.

Garage door repair or replacement

$500

Unley SA, Australia

3rd Jun 2026

Looking for an experienced tradesperson to assess and repair a standard tilt-up garage door that was damaged several years ago when a vehicle drove into it. The frame is bent and the door no longer operates correctly. We’re open to: • Repairing the existing frame and door if feasible • Full replacement with a similar tilt-up door • Alternative door options if more cost-effective Photos of the interior of the tilted door have been added. The front is temporarily covered with plasterboard to conceal the damage, as seen in a couple of the images — this will be removed in the coming days to fully expose the door. The tilted door’s current dimensions are 3050W x 2200H. Please note the budget listed is a placeholder — we’re not sure of the true cost of this job and are genuinely open to quotes. We’d love to hear your recommended approach and a realistic price so we can make an informed decision. Happy to receive quotes for both repair and replacement so we can weigh up the options. Please include your approach and estimated costs in your response.

$150

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.

I have 6 rain bird R van sprinklers in my back lawn. Recently the pressure has dropped and they won’t pop up. I have capped them and checked for leaks, and also checked the water pressure at the meter (58 PSI). In case a 19mm hose was kinked underground I have connected a garden hose into a join near the sprinklers and ran manually. Again they take a while to build up pressure and I can only run 2-3. Any ideas of who can help diagnose the issue
