What do handyman services include?

Have some untackled DIY tasks at home that you can’t seem to find time for? Find a highly skilled handyman near you with remarkable customer service by using Airtasker. 

Here's a list of some handyman services you might find useful:

Handyman service - general handyman

Start chipping away at that growing list of odd jobs around the house. By hiring a general labour handyman or a small jobs handyman near you, you can get several things done expertly and efficiently. Request your Tasker to help you with tasks like pulling up carpets, replacing light bulbs, or hanging shelves so you can focus on finishing work, running your business, or taking care of your kids.

Handyman service - indoor installations and repairs

Whether you need assistance with installing newly bought homeware or fixing old ones to avoid purchasing replacements, you can hire a handyman to cover for you. Have them work on installing curtain rods and blinds, fitting the kitchen sink, setting up pet doors, and even wallpapering. If a home security system is what you need installed, you can book a separate service to make this happen.

A handyman can also help with soundproofing a room. If you're wondering about soundproofing cost, pricing varies based on materials, room size, and labour—get a quote to find the best option for your budget.

Handyman service - outdoor installations and repairs

Your outdoor setup tends to take a beating, from heavy rains or the messy aftermath of kids playing. Keep your backyard in top shape by getting outdoor items fixed up right. Find a handyman near you who can tackle tasks like setting up your shed foundation, patching up windows, getting your mower back in action, building a garden shed within your budget, and installing some outdoor blinds.

Need extra privacy? You can also have a handyman screen on your porch to create a more secluded and comfortable outdoor space.

Handyman service - bricklaying and building work

If you’re in need of basic home construction, go for handyman services provided by Taskers with ample bricklaying and building experience. These experts can help you build garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or even construct a chicken coop. To maintain these areas, you can also hire Taskers to perform gardening work or brick cleaning as needed.

Handyman service - wall hanging

Want to free up space by mounting your TV or bicycle on the wall? Get a handyman for any wall hanging needs to ensure your furnishings are level and fitted securely. From picture frames and mirrors to heavier electrical items like dryers, count on your Tasker to do a thorough job. Need help with your cable TV wiring? You can also book a service for this on Airtasker.

Handyman service - furniture repair

When booking a repairman for furniture fixes, be specific about the item that needs fixing to make sure you hire the right people. For example, handymen with carpentry experience may be suitable if you’re looking to have your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed repaired. On the other hand, hire a tradie with electrical experience for fixing ceiling fans or digital fitness equipment.

Handyman service - home maintenance

Keeping your home in top-notch condition is a breeze when you have access to regular home maintenance services near you. A local handyman can help with cleaning the gutter, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and working on minor roof repairs. Regular home maintenance can prevent small issues from turning into costly problems, keeping your place looking schmick and running smoothly.

Builder required for door repairs.

$300

New Norfolk TAS 7140, Australia

21st Mar 2025

Looking for a builder to fix my front door. The door closes but does not lock if that makes sense. If there is nothing against it or it's not wedge shut it will just open. A gust of wind = blows open everytime. Regardless of if it's locked or not. We have tried to lift the door hinges, which solved the problem for a day or 2 then we go back to this. I am not a builder, I do not know building pricing. Please leave approx quotes down below so I know what I'm looking at prior to locking something in. If you do not add a rough quote, I will not contact you. ( Ideally looking for a cash price, also happy to pay for or supply any materials needed )

Car maintenance.

$700

Sandy Bay TAS, Australia

10th Nov 2021

I want to drive this from Tasmania to Queensland, however it needs some love before that will happen, and to pass roadworthy. It only needs globes, and maybe a headlight adjustment to pass, according to previous inspection. Failed on the aforementioned, and exhaust (replaced), no horn (replaced OEM steering wheel), frayed seatbelt (replaced), hole in drivers carpet, (floor mats) 1987/88 NE/NF Mitsubishi pajero 2.6l petrol. Carby has not been tuned, it is a Webber conversion, on a 4g54 motor, and the radiator is not functioning correctly. Blown rocker or head gasket, lots of oil build up on passenger side under the intake.. it appears to be from the block, but hard to tell.. suspect welch plug. Car starts, but clutch is pretty much gone. No temperature reading. Various globes are blown. EVAP Lines to charcoal canister are a mess, with lines blocked off, and looped into themselves, etc.. Fuse blown in UHF. Engine has low compression on at least one cylinder. What I would like is; Complete engine bay degrease, to diagnose oil leak. Carby tuned, and vacuum lines fitted correctly. Rocker/head gasket replacement, if need. Fuel filter Universal fan shroud (maybe) Battery clamp Head lights, tail lights, repeaters, license plate lights, inspected and replaced as needed. New/Working Radiator. Extractors inspected for damage. Fix temperature gauge Issue road worth. Lastly, the vehicle is set up for air conditioning, but has no compressor, I would consider this if good used compressor or affordable new one is available
