Matt is fantastic. I had a fairly big job, after letting the backyard turn into a jungle over a few years. Matt cleaned it up like a pro, and nothing was too hard for him. Cleaned up afterwards and left with a smile. Matt has now become our regular garden maintenance man. Thanks Matt.👍👍

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 are some handyman services you might find useful:


General handyman services

Start chipping away at that growing list of odd jobs around the house. By hiring a general labour handyman, 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.


Indoor installations and repairs

Whether you need assistance with installing newly bought homeware or fixing old ones to avoid purchasing replacements, your hired handyman can 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.


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 garden shed or clothesline, patching up windows, getting your mower back in action, and installing some outdoor blinds.


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.


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.


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.


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.

Cutting panels on angle

$80

Deanside VIC, Australia

15th Dec 2024

Hello, Hope you are well. I was looking for someone who could provide services for cutting wooden panels on angle. As you can see in the picture, the DIY hack I made for portable aircon duct using foam panel. However, the issue is that the hot exhaust air leaks out from the edges of the panel due to the air pushing the panel and bending it. Even though I don't want to remove the window fly screen and make something there, I am just after someone to cut precise wooden panel so I do not have to worry about the hot air coming back inside and the foam is already reaching the limits of it's structural integrity which might break at any time. Also, please let me know which panel I need to get as I have no clue what would be best suited for this purpose. Thanks, z

I am hanging plaster ready for the installation of new joinery in my home office and required a plasterer to stop up the already hung plaster. In the photos attached, you can see the size of the wall, which will be plastered about half way up. Plus the small section of the roof and side wall which will require stopping up, half of which you can see has been started. I anticipate this may be a couple of hours work.
