What do handyman services include?

Handymen with good customer service can tackle a wide range of indoor and outdoor home DIY tasks. Here are some tasks you might ask a local handyman near you to pop around and help with:

General handyman services

Got a list as long as your arm of odd jobs that need a handyman to complete? Hire general labour handymen to get several things done at once. They can help with general maintenance tasks such as pulling up a carpet, hanging doors, fixing broken appliances and replacing light bulbs, garden work, and more. 

Indoor installations and repairs 

A local handyman can help install newly bought homewares or fix broken possessions (so you can hopefully save some money). For example, they can help with DIY blind installation and repairs, fitting and repairing the kitchen sink, fitting pet doors, hanging shower screens, and even wallpapering. They’ll get it done using their own specialist tools and will let you know if you need to provide or pay for any additional materials.

Outdoor installations and repairs 

Your outdoor area and belongings have to deal with a lot. So help them withstand whatever nature (or your family) throws at them for longer by getting them professionally installed or repaired. Find a handyman who can help with garden shed installation, BBQ repair, fitting outdoor blinds, window repairs, fixing your mower, putting up your clothesline, and even repairing your kids’ trampoline.  The cost of these services varies. You can learn how much letterbox replacement costs or how much window blinds installation costs with our price guides.

Bricklaying and building work

You can hire a handyman near you with bricklaying and building experience to help build garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or even construct a chicken coop. When getting quotes from tradesmen, mention if you’ve got the building materials already, or if you’d like them to supply the materials as part of the job.   

Wall hanging

From pictures and TVs to bike racks and mirrors - if you need help with wall mounting, get a DIY handyman to fit your furnishings securely and make sure they’re level. Most handymen will bring their own tools, but you may need to supply extra materials such as screws, picture wire, or mounts for heavier electrical items like TVs and driers. 

Furniture repair

When booking a handyman for furniture repair, you’ll need to be specific about the furniture that needs fixing. For example, handymen with carpentry experience may better if it’s your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed that need repairing. Meanwhile, a handyman with electrical experience may be right for any ceiling fan or digital fitness equipment fixes. That’ll ensure you get the best handyman near you for the job, plus the right tools to get it done.

The receiving bracket of my retractable clothes line has fallen off the wall. Over time, the screws have slipped through the designated holes of the bracket.

Install 10x Internal Door Handles to replace old ones

$200

Mordialloc VIC, Australia

5th May 2024

As part of renovations to our house we are updating all the door handles on our interior doors to replace the old ones as pictured (which don't go with the renovations/new wall colors). We have purchased everything needed - brand new doorhandles (NEWBNAG Privacy Interior Door Handles) - but need someone to install them all. This includes : - Remove previous door handles/latches/strike plates (should be quick). - Install new Door Handles - including replacing the Adjustable Latches and strike plates with the ones with new door handle kits. - No special locksmith/barrel changing needed - these are simple privacy locks without keys. - In a couple of cases mechanism may need to be reversed (so privacy latch is on correct side - these support this). - Additional Note: Previous door handles all working fine - so nothing needs to be 'repaired'. The doors (I have included picture without door handle, showing latch & strike plate) already have all the pre-made holes suitable for 60mm latch mechanism (that new one uses) so job is just straight up replacement everywhere. We also likely want more handyman work done in future too, so opportunity for more ongoing work for someone with reasonable hourly rate.

Harnek did an amazing job - there were also extra things required we’d not put in job description and he did then without any complaints or asking for extra (so I have added a tip). We will definitely be using him for our handyman work at home and our investment properties in future.
