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.

Need a kitchen sink drainage specialist for a deep clogged pipe

£100

Tower Hill, Greater London

3rd Mar 2025

I need a kitchen sink drainage specialist who can help us sort out a deep clog. We've already had a plumber come and try to address the problem. However, that only turned out to be a temporary fix, because it came back with a vengeance. It is unclear what is causing the clog, and how far down the pipe the clog is. But we've tried all the typical stuff, pouring chemicals, plungers, vacuums, snakes, etc. Additionally, due to the inability of the pipe to drain, it looks like water has now leaked into the bottom of the dishwasher, and is leaking out onto the kitchen floor as well. When we turned on the laundry machine yesterday, it caused the kitchen sink to overflow. We don't dare try turning on the dishwasher at the moment for fear of making it worse. We've been surviving for now by emptying the water by hand into the hallway bathroom sink. Otherwise, the water level currently doesn't really move. I need someone who specializes in unclogging deep clogs in the undersink piping or in the kitchen walls. And need them to come to the flat ASAP. Jimmy

Marv did a fantastic job. Got here even earlier than expected. Used quite a creative approach to fix the deep clog problem with our kitchen sink – and this is after another plumber came before and tried to fix it (but their solution turned out to only be a temporary fix). Marv was a great communicator, and very effective at getting the job done. Would definitely hire again.

Replace blinds with curtains

Stepney, Greater London, E1

27th Feb 2025

Note: I will require a quote before proceeding with services to provide the landlord. Budget has been set to £5, but we'll update once inspected and a quote has been provided. I have just moved into a property in East London and in one of the rooms there are three venetian blinds that I am looking to replace with 2 blackout curtains. There are three separate windows, each with a separate venetian blind which is not currently stopping the light coming from the flood light outside. The height of the windows are apx 243cm and two separate blackout blinds will be required, one with apx 150cm track and the other at apx 250cm track. The current venetian blinds would need to be taken down with new curtains installed, we don't have blackout curtains so would pay for this in the services too.
