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.

Box in a bathtub and install skirting boards in a flat (40 sq m)

£800

Brixton, Greater London, SW9

30th Oct 2025

Hi, I’ve recently purchased a flat in Brixton and looking to get a couple of jobs done: 1. Boxing in a bathtub – I should say that the bathtub is a little wiggly. I’d like a neat and durable solution that complements the existing bathroom style. Also, I would need the wall behind the toilet panelled. I attached the picture of the bathroom so you can see its current state. 2. Installing skirting boards – This would be for the bedroom, livingroom and the hallway. I would need skirting boards for the halfway and living room. The bedroom has skirting boards but those aren’t installed. See pictures attached, there are pipes under the windows that i would like to be covered, would this be possible to do? Would you be able to provide me with an estimate of how much it would cost to 1) fix the bathroom and 2) install the skirting boards throughout the flat (floor plan attached).

Install Outdoor Weatherproof Socket for Mobility Scooter Charging

£30

Brixton, Greater London, SW9

8th Oct 2025

We’re a disabled household needing help installing an outdoor IP66 waterproof socket to safely charge our mobility scooters. The weatherproof socket (already purchased – see photos) needs to be mounted on the external brick wall below the basement window (or beside door, will appreciate your expertise and advice on this), with wiring taken from an indoor plug socket on the opposite side of that wall (this outdoor socket is pre-wired so has a plug itself to plug into the indoor socket) The wall is standard solid brick, accessible from both sides (inside and outside). We’d like the installer to: • Drill through the wall and run the cable neatly. • Mount the external socket securely and seal the hole. • Clip or staple the wiring neatly along the interior and exterior wall if required. • Advise briefly on the best placement height for safe scooter charging and weather protection. This will replace our temporary extension-lead setup (currently running through the basement door) which we know isn’t safe long-term. You’ll have: • Access to the inside and outside walls. • The socket unit and cable provided (IP66 rated). • Tea / Coffee and Biscuits for the duration (if you like, or water too) We’d love a reliable qualified electrician or experienced handyman familiar with outdoor electrical work. The goal is a simple, safe, and tidy install. Thankyou for your time and I hope the photos help you better understand the needs of this task. ☺️
