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.

Airtasker has over 34 handyman in Canonbury, with an average rating of 5.0 stars from 32 reviews. Get in touch with handyman such as Joshua S, Ignacio O, and Munir S today to get a wide variety of Handyman jobs done.

Replace gasket seals on windows around the house

£50

Canonbury, Greater London

7th Mar 2025

The windows and patio doors in the house I rent are extremely draughty, causing my energy bills to rise. The gasket seals are either flattened or missing, so I believe they need replacing to fix the issue, but I’d like an expert opinion. I’ve reviewed multiple samples and identified the gasket seal size as F130, but I’d like the person taking on the job to confirm this before purchasing new seals, just in case I’m mistaken. The gasket seal samples are still at the house. There are 6 windows and 2 patio doors in total. My landlady will cover the cost of any supplies needed to complete the job. The goal is to make the windows and patio doors airtight, eliminating the draughts. The house is in Canonbury, on a private, gated road, with plenty of free parking right outside the front door.

Fix creaky floorboard under carpet, ideally without having to lift it.

£40

Canonbury, Greater London

5th Mar 2025

I rent a third-floor bedroom in Canonbury, and there’s a loud creaky floorboard in front of my en-suite that disturbs my housemate below. I’m looking for someone to fix the creak beneath the carpet, ideally without lifting it – I’ve paid a deposit on the rental, so I’d rather not risk damaging the carpet. A temporary fix that lasts a couple of years is fine. I live on a private road with plenty of free parking right outside.

Put up garden privacy screen within ivy over garden wall

£120

Sewardstonebury, Essex

3rd Dec 2024

I was stripping back the ivy from the top our garden wall, but have accidentally opened significant holes where people can look into out home. I have bought dark green garden privacy screen (dark green tight mesh used for garden fences) and would like someone to install this along the top of the garden wall within the ivy to provide privacy. I have added photos to the task to explain.

Here is an Amazon link to the privacy screen I purchased: https://amzn.eu/d/bEcL9QO
