What level of service should I expect from a handyman near me?

A local handyman should provide a clear estimate before starting any work, bring the tools and materials needed for the job, and complete tasks efficiently while maintaining a tidy workspace. They should leave your home in good order with repairs or installations finished to a high standard.

Should I ask to see examples of a handyman’s previous work?

Yes. It’s helpful to see photos of past projects such as furniture assembly, wall mounting, or home repairs to get a sense of their workmanship. Many handymen show examples of completed jobs on their MyBuilder profiles to give you confidence in the results.

What types of jobs can a handyman help with?

Local handymen often take on a wide range of domestic tasks, including putting up shelves, mounting TVs, assembling flat-pack furniture, fixing doors or locks, and completing small painting or maintenance jobs. If you’re unsure, describe your project when posting your job. Many handymen can handle multiple types of work.

How should I prepare before a handyman arrives?

Clear the space where the work will take place and make sure any fixtures or items that might get in the way are moved. If materials or fittings are required, confirm whether you or the handyman will supply them beforehand to avoid delays.

What should I check before hiring a handyman?

Before choosing handyman services near you, review profile information on MyBuilder, including job history and feedback from other customers. Make sure to confirm details like cost, duration, and what’s included in the service to ensure everything runs smoothly.

We are very happy we chose Martin for the job we needed. Martin came in for a short visit to see what needed to be done, take measurements and have a look at our walls and then we agreed a date to conduct the work. Martin was always very transparent on timings and cost and very helpful. The work was completed within a few hours like he had said, there was absolutely no mess left behind and we are very happy with the results. We'll definitely hire him again if we need to do more work in the house that we don't feel confident or skilled enough to do ourselves. Very professional and clear process throughout, I highly recommend Martin.

Fencing- 8 May 2018
A really good job . Matt fitted a side gate an fence panel to the side of my house. His quote was very reasonable and he was able to do the job quickly. He has also done a little job inside the house and is coming back to do a few more small jobs. I have no hesitation in recommending Matt....a very polite young man with a good work ethic. I will be keeping him on speed dial for the future.

Tiling- 15 Oct 2018
The tiling job has been done nicely! Peter is very nice and friendly and always makes sure the work is done to our expectation (and with alternation even after the start). Good to have Peter and his son in Shirley as our local builder. Also gave additional (was not in his work scope) and very helpful advise on the leaking on the roof so I can explained to my other builder who did the extension.

George completed a fencing job at my house. He did an excellent job, everything was finished perfectly. Despite the fact the garden is on a hill, he managed to get the tops of the dances aligned perfectly. I was really impressed with his attitude and punctuality.

Plumbing- 20 Jul 2021
Very happy with the quote, very reasonable labour and parts charges but travel expenses added quite a bit to the bill as he had to travel a fairly long way to the job. Still reasonable overall though. Work completed in good time to a good standard, a minor leak from a faulty fitting was rectified immediately with no fuss before payment was requested. I will use this person again if needed.

Handyman- 6 Nov 2019
Aidan was prompt and efficient. He gave me a detailed quote based on the likely work required. When it was clear that there was more work involved, he consulted me for approval before proceeding. I live overseas and so the detail that he provided before, during and after the job was important to me. He sent photos on completion so that I could see what had been done. I would definitely hire him again.
