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.

Skilled Maintenance Technician/Handyman Wanted
$150
Wickham NSW 2293, Australia
13th Jul 2026
We're starting up a professionally run serviced accommodation business in Newcastle (Wickham, Honeysuckle, Newcastle West areas), managing short-term rental apartments for travelling professionals. As we grow, we're looking to connect with a reliable maintenance technician or skilled handyman that we can work with as we take on more properties. What We're Looking For: * Minor repairs and maintenance within apartments (plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting, appliance fixes) * Ability to attend on short notice when urgent issues come up * Professional, tidy workmanship — you'll be working in guest-facing spaces *Comfortable working within apartment block/strata requirements (noise, access, etc.) A Little About Us: We're building this business thoughtfully and intentionally. We're not rushing — we're focusing on quality relationships and getting the foundations right. Most of our properties will be apartments, though some future opportunities may include houses with outdoor spaces. We value calm, clear communication and mutual respect. We know good tradespeople are busy, so we try to make working with us straightforward: clear job descriptions, prompt payment, and straightforward communication. What We'd Love to Know: If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, send us a message with: 1. Your trade background or main skills 2. A couple of examples of similar work you've done 3. How quickly you're typically able to attend when called 4. Your usual rates (hourly or per-job) We're growing slowly and selectively. If you're keen to build a long-term working relationship rather than one-off jobs, we'd love to hear from you.
