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.

Painter/handyman
£30
Black Friars, Leicestershire
9th Sep 2026
I need a skilled handyman/decorator to restore the walls back to the condition they were in when we moved in. I installed decorative wooden frame/moulding onto the walls myself using caulk and Pink Grip adhesive, so this will need to be carefully removed without causing unnecessary damage to the wall. The job will include: * Carefully removing the wooden decorative moulding/frame from the wall * Repairing any areas where paint or plaster comes away during removal * Filling existing screw/nail holes and small damaged areas on the walls * Sanding everything smooth * Making good the walls so there are no obvious marks or outlines where the moulding/fittings were * Touch-up painting or repainting the affected wall areas as necessary so they are left clean, smooth and presentable for our move-out There are also a few existing fixing holes/marks from wall-mounted items that we would like filled and made good at the same time. Please only offer if you have experience with wall repairs, filling, sanding and decorating, particularly removing items that have been attached using strong grab adhesive such as Pink Grip. Ideally, we are looking for someone who can complete the whole job from removal through to the finished painted wall. Please let me know: * Your experience with similar jobs * Whether you provide the filler/repair materials * Whether painting is included * Your estimated time required Photos/video can be provided.

1. Ceiling / Light Fitting The ceiling light fitting appears to have become detached, leaving exposed fixing points and damage around the area where it was previously secured. The fitting needs to be safely re-secured to the ceiling, with the damaged area repaired and made good. 2. Kitchen Cupboard Door The kitchen cupboard door has become damaged/detached from its hinges. The hinge fixings appear loose or pulled away from the cabinet, meaning the door is not securely attached. The hinges and fixing points need repairing or replacing so the cupboard door can open and close properly. 3. Flooring / Doorway Trim The flooring/threshold area around the doorway has damaged and loose edging/trim. There are visible gaps and deterioration around the edges, with sections appearing worn and uneven. The damaged trim and surrounding area need to be properly secured, repaired and made safe to prevent further deterioration or a trip hazard.
