What do handyman services include?

Save yourself the hassle of tackling home maintenance and repairs yourself, especially if you don’t possess the proper training or tools for them. Airtasker can simplify the process for you by connecting you with a reliable and competent handyman near you. 


Here are some tasks you can request from your hired handyman:


General handyman services

Most handymen are jack-of-all-trades who can handle just about any repair or maintenance needs around the house. By hiring one, you can complete several tasks at once, from ripping up carpets and hanging doors to changing light bulbs. 


Indoor installations and repairs

Have you recently bought homewares you’re finding hard to install? Or have a couple of broken appliances but can’t afford to purchase replacements? A tradesperson can help resolve these minor hiccups. Handymen can lend a hand with tasks like installing blinds or curtain rods, fitting the kitchen sink, setting up pet doors, and even wallpapering. Need to set up a home security system? You can also book a Tasker to do this for you.


Outdoor installations and repairs

Your outdoor area has to endure a great deal, from heavy rains to smoke and stains from a recent cookout. Help your backyard withstand whatever nature (or your family) throws at it for longer by getting outdoor items expertly installed or repaired. Find a handyman near you who can help install your garden shed or clothesline, repair windows, fit outdoor blinds, or fix your mower. 


Bricklaying and building work

If you require any building work or bricklaying, you can expect Taskers to be able to provide these handyman services. Get an experienced builder to put up garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or construct a chicken coop for you. To maintain these areas, book separate services for gardening work or brick cleaning as necessary.


Wall hanging

Looking to free up space in your living room or garage? Hire a handyman to mount your TV or bike on the wall. Instead of tackling it yourself, get an expert to make sure everything's level and securely fastened. They can handle picture frames, mirrors, or even heavier items like dryers. Need to repair your TV unit beforehand? Book a separate service for that on Airtasker.


Furniture repair

Tradespeople may specialize in different areas, so it’s important to specify the type of furniture you want them to repair. For instance, you should hire a handyman with carpentry experience to work on your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed. Meanwhile, an expert in electrical work may be your best choice for repairing ceiling fans or digital fitness equipment.


Home maintenance

Having quick access to home maintenance services makes it a lot easier to keep your house in great shape. You can rely on local handyman services for things like cleaning the gutters, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and handling minor roof repairs. Prevent small problems from turning into costly ones and keep your home looking good and running smoothly with regular home maintenance.
