Recent Handyman reviews in Rochester

Hire this man! Takes his time and works immaculately, I couldn't have asked for a better tradesman! Professional and was more than happy to answer all my questions and explain how things work. I am a female and was home alone and felt very safe in John's company. Also a bonus, he cleans up after himself!

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.

Various jobs

£1,250

Lower Higham, Kent

13th Sep 2024

1. Make loft hatch longer by 20cm, currently 55x55cm and need it to be 55x75cm (cut away ceiling board, install new wood batons, cut new hatch to size). 2. Slide two glass panels (on conservatory) back into place and seal. These two panels have slid out of place by a couple of inches, which leaves a small gap in the roof. 3. Adjust an internal door so it closes properly. This is a plywood internal bi-fold door to an ensuite that doesn't quite close fully. 4. Replace bathtub. Currently there is a 170cm bath with a 24cm gap (currently filled with a plastic board. I want to remove the bath and replace like-for-like with a 180cm one (also 70cm wide). Note: there is a wall of tiles on one side of the bath (which is bonded to a tiling backerboard and a wooden frame) that would need to be detached and then re-attached, with one tile shaved down. 5. Wire up a Heat Recovery Unit (connect to mains, and to bathroom switch, I have diagram/instructions). 6. Fix 2x lighting circuits. Both are downlighter circuits on opposite sides of the lounge. One stopped turning on then, a few days later, same thing happened on the other. They are not tripping the fuse, and replacing the dimmer switch made no difference. 7. Replace a bedroom ceiling. It is approx 3.6m x 3.2m. Had a leak and this left some mould spots in the ceiling. Please replace ceiling, coving and paint ceiling. NOTE: this particular job is at my parents house (2.5 miles away in Cliffe Woods). I can provide photos if helpful.
