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.

Handyman for Bedroom & Kitchen Dismantling, Fixing & Repair
£150
Barking, Greater London
2nd Sep 2025
We are moving and need to make good some rooms. This is an all-day job. In the bedroom, 2 large (one very large)wardrobes need to be dismantled, a king sized bed, chest of draws and small bookshelf needs to be moved out of the bedroom so that a carpet fitter can lay down new carpet. Then the large wardrobe needs to be rebuilt, while the smaller one discarded. The other items need to be moved back into the bedroom. In the kitchen, a kitchen draw's roller has broken and needs to be fixed, and one of the kitchen cupboard doors needs it's hinge repaired. Also the kitchen cupboard's plinth (Kick board) was damaged. We've bought a new one and it needs to be cut down to size and fitted. Need somebody for this work, starting 8.30am Friday morning and for the day until around 5pm (because of carpet fitters appointment time)
Deneil arrived early and worked diligently to get all the tasks agreed completed. He went above and beyond, even assisting us in moving items to our storage location and popping to B&Q with us to help us select the right bits and pieces we needed. Others in our building observed his work and have also hired him. Highly recommended
