What do handyman services include?
Not everyone has the skills, tools, or time to tackle home maintenance and repairs, which is why handyman services are readily available to book on Airtasker. Save yourself the trouble of pulling a DIY by connecting with a reliable handyman near you.Â
Here are some tasks you can request from your Tasker:
General handyman services
Most handymen are all-rounders, ready to take on a bit of everything around the house. When you hire one, you can sort out multiple issues in one fell swoop, from yanking up carpets and hanging doors to swapping out light bulbs.
Indoor installations and repairs
Struggling to install recently purchased homewares? Or perhaps you can’t replace your damaged appliances just yet? Handymen could easily smooth out these minor bumps. They are equipped to assist with tasks like putting up blinds and curtain rods, installing kitchen sinks and pet doors, and even wallpapering.  If you need a home security system installed, you can also book a Tasker to set this up for you.
Outdoor installations and repairs
Your outdoor area goes through the wringer, enduring everything from heavy rains to the mess left behind after playtime. To keep your backyard in tip-top shape, have outdoor items expertly installed or repaired. Seek out a handyman near you who can assist in tasks like putting up your garden shed or clothesline, mending windows, fixing your mower, and fitting outdoor blinds.
Bricklaying and building work
Handyman services can also cover basic home construction, such as bricklaying and building work. If you need a seasoned builder to help you put up garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or construct a chicken coop, count on Taskers to handle them for you. For maintenance, you can also book separate services for gardening work or brick cleaning.
Wall hanging
If you need to free up space in the living room or garage, get a handyman to mount your TV or bicycle on the wall. Instead of pulling a DIY, working with a tradesperson for your wall hanging needs ensures your furnishings are level and fitted securely. Taskers can hang picture frames, mirrors, or heavier electrical items like dryers. Having trouble with your electrical wiring? Have it fixed beforehand by booking another service on Airtasker.
Furniture repair
Before having your broken furniture repaired, specify the type of furniture to make sure you get a Tasker whose skills align with your demands. For instance, get a Tasker with carpentry experience to repair your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed. If the issue is electrical work, such as fixing ceiling fans or digital fitness equipment, ensure your handyman is experienced in this area.
Home maintenance
When you have access to home maintenance services near you, it’s easier preserve your place’s top-notch condition. You can count on your local handyman to help with cleaning the gutters, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and sorting out minor roof repairs. Avoid letting small issues turn into expensive problems with regular home maintenance.

Repair channel in plasterboard wall (no painting required)
£125
St Luke's, Greater London
20th Nov 2025
A 1-metre channel has been cut into an internal plasterboard wall by an electrician to run cabling. I need the section repaired so it’s flush and ready for me to paint afterwards. The job will involve patching/filling the channel, re-taping if needed, and leaving a smooth finish level with the existing wall. Access is good and the area is clear — just need someone who can do a neat plasterboard/patch repair. Located outside congestion zone. Free parking if needed.
Steve did a good job repairing the plasterboard at my home. He was very communicative throughout, explaining every step of the process clearly and keeping me updated. He came twice to make sure the job was done properly and really put a lot of effort in. He worked hard and was friendly, reliable, and professional throughout. I’d happily recommend him.

Fit new shower screen
£80
Lower Holloway, Greater London, N7
12th Sep 2025
Hi there! The old shower screen came off the wall rail so I would like to fit a new one in. Problem is the shape of the wall, as the bath tub goes into a sort of alcove (see picture). So either fit a normal screen with a 180-Degree Pivot Hinge Mechanism and fix the screen perpendicular to the bath tub (as it was), or is their a way to add something attached to the wall so the screen can be mounted the right way. I will provide the shower screen.
Johnny was fast responding. He arrived with all the necessary equipment to complete the job nice and tidy. Very professional and on top very friendly. Will definitely call him again if needed.

Zaynab worked through the list of small jobs around my flat and completed everything to a high standard.

Would definitely recommend - thank you!
