George has been an absolute star. He went above and beyond in fulfilling not only all the tasks on the list in a timely fashion and to the highest standard, but also with the odd bits here and there that needed attention. He is very polite and enormously capable, and I couldn't recommend him more.

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.
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.

Looking for someone experienced with vinyl/window graphic installation for a pop-up event in Kensington this Friday. The vinyl will already be printed — we only need installation. Job includes: 1 main window vinyl application (240cm × 250cm) 1 overhead vinyl/logo application (260cm × 65cm) Important notes: We still want visibility into the store, so this is not a full blackout window wrap. Installation location: 96 Kensington High Street, W8 4SG Preferred installation time: Friday morning/early afternoon (ideally completed by 3PM) Temporary installation only — vinyl will need to be removable afterward without damaging the windows. Please let me know if you have experience with storefront/window vinyl installation and your estimated quote/timeline. Happy to share design mockups and measurements.

We are looking to have some wall damage (a small hole and multiple scrapes) caused by movers repaired and painted in our hallway. We have the wall paint. Then if you have time we would like the hallway skirting and part of the stairway from the hallway repainted or touched up in white. Just fyi the carpet on the stairs will be replaced after the job is done. We estimate the job to be 3-4 hours and will be happy with what good work you can do in that amount of time.
