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.

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.

Install Wet Wall Top Trim – Experience with Silicone Required

$120

Cockatoo VIC 3781, Australia

30th Jun 2026

I’m looking for someone to install the top finishing trims on my wet wall panels inside my grooming pod. The job involves: * Measuring and cutting the trim to length. * Sliding the trim onto the top edge of the wet wall panels. * Applying a neat bead of white silicone to seal the trim to the wall so it’s completely watertight. The job is straightforward, but I’m looking for someone who has experience applying silicone neatly, as I want a clean, professional finish. I already have the trim and silicone. You’ll just need to bring your own tools (measuring tape, saw suitable for cutting the trim, silicone gun, etc.).

Sam did a good job with our task. He was very honest (which we really appreciated) and came back the same day to finish a part of the job forgotten in the initial visit. Unfortunately sam was later than agreed upon with both arrivals but otherwise we were very happy with the work.
