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

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.

A local handyman can help with cleaning the gutter, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and working on minor roof repairs.

Looking for someone with the appropriate tools and experience to install a shelf in my kitchen in Legana. It should be a straightforward job - I already have the shelf, but I don't have the correct drill, tools or wall fixings needed to install it securely. Ideally, you would: • Bring your own tools • Supply any suitable screws/wall anchors required • Make sure the shelf is level and securely fixed • Leave the area tidy afterwards There is a stud in the middle. Plaster wall.

Totally recommend Chris. Excellent service

Handyman needed ASAP – multiple small jobs

$220

Trevallyn TAS 7250, Australia

3rd Sep 2026

I’m looking for a reliable handyman to complete the following jobs at my home. I’d ideally like this done ASAP, but at a pinch I need it completed within the next week. 1. Replace 2 door handles I need two existing door handles replaced. The current handles are attached with screws positioned above and below the handle. I purchased replacement handles, but the ones I found have screws positioned left and right so they don’t appear to be a direct replacement. If you’re able to source or let me know where to find the correct handles with the same screw positioning that would be ideal and would hopefully avoid having to modify the doors. Materials are NOT included in the task price – I will pay for any required materials separately if needed. 2. Swap over 2 shower heads I have two showers and need the shower heads switched between them. Remove the shower head from Shower 1 and install it onto Shower 2 and replace the original shower head onto shower 1 . 3. Apply non-slip/grip tape to stairs I need non-slip grip tape applied to 17 steps I can buy the tape I’m looking for someone who can apply it neatly, evenly and securely so it looks tidy and is properly adhered. I’m happy to discuss the best approach to the door handles if there is a suitable alternative I haven’t considered. I’m open to reasonable offers depending on experience and the exact work involved. Please let me know your availability and whether you’re comfortable completing all three jobs.

Thank you Furgus for your help and advice with this job. No nonsense and got the job done. Thanks
