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.

Repair wall
£200
Forest Hill, Greater London
14th Jan 2026
I'm leaving a rental property in Forest Hill (2 mins from station) and I need someone to patch up some damage to a wall & back of a door caused my cat. She liked bouncing up via the door to some fitted cupboards, and her claws left behind some scratches as she went up - I have attached photos. Roughly 1m by 1m on the wall, which is the priority. The finish doesn't have to be invisible, I know this may be tricky to achieve. Ideally this would be done before a landlord inspection on Friday 16 January, although 17 and 18 would work if I can't get anyone before. I have already moved out, leaving keys at Acorn, the estate agents next door, which you can pick up to access the flat. There are some pots of paint on top of the fitted cupboards (you'll need a stepladder). These may be the same shade of paint, but as I'm not there I can't be sure!

Blind repairs

Good Afternoon, I hope you’re well? I am enquiring about some repairs needed to 3 different blinds, in 3 different flats (all within the same block). 2x blinds are normal pull cords, and the 3rd one is a motorised blinds. 3 Pine Ridge - Blind in the main bedroom is not holding in place when down a little bit, it will just fall all the way down. We have had a contractor look at it and he has advised possible spring tension required. The blinds are quite big so its likely the heaviness of the blind overtime has caused some issues. 4 Pine Ridge – Same as above - Blind in the main bedroom not holding when down a little bit. We have had a contractor look at it and he has advised possible spring tension required.

Had the fuse checked but that wasn’t the issue. Please let me know if this is something you can help with and if you need any more information. Thanks, Evie

Oleh attended on time and was polite throughout. Unfortunately, he was unable to complete the task as the blinds provided were not the correct size.
