Types of Handyman Services

There are many types of handyman services, and different handymen specialize in different areas. Even though they may advertise general handyman services, not all professional handymen offer the same services.

This list includes handyman services for common tasks.

Different types of Handyman Services

#1) Drywall Installation

Professional handyman services might specialize in installing new drywall after a home renovation or water damage restoration job. Handyman services are often equipped with the tools and equipment needed to measure, cut and install drywall boards in homes.

#2) Fixture replacement

Fixtures in homes like kitchen faucets and cabinets, as well as lighting systems, can wear down or become damaged over time. Many fixtures can be easily replaced by an amateur DIY enthusiast. However, homeowners may prefer to have a professional handle it to ensure the job is done correctly.

Many fixture replacement jobs do not require a license and can be performed by a local handyman. There may be instances where replacing a fixture such as a faucet, or lighting system, will require a license.

#3) Smart Home Upgrade Installation

This handyman service allows a professional to come out and install any number of smart home devices, including doorbells, sensors, and thermostats. You should verify with your handyman that they are qualified to install your product. There are many brands and models. Some may need specialist knowledge about electrical systems.

#4) Painting Interior and Exterior

Painting interior and exterior walls is one of the most requested handyman services. Painting a house can be a tedious task, especially if it is already occupied. Painting services are used by many homeowners and property managers to improve the curb appeal of their homes before they sell them. This can often result in a higher return on your investment as the house is sold faster or for more money.

Handyman services are often available to help with home repairs. They have the right tools, such as drop cloths and tape, paint rollers, tape, furniture covers and ladders. Because they are so popular, some handyman services specialize in painting services.

#5) Power washing

Sidewalks and driveways can get covered in dirt and debris, which can cause severe discoloration. To keep your home’s exterior looking great, power washing is a good option.

However, not all handyman services have the equipment necessary to power wash. Power washing can be costly and time-consuming, so professional handyman services may not have the right equipment.

#6) Window Repair

Window repairs can be done by many handyman services for a small fee. This includes cleaning up broken glass, and fixing/replacing both the frame and the window. It may be necessary for windows to be sized differently in your home.

#7) Small Appliance Repair

Many homeowners prefer to fix an appliance that is broken than replace it with a brand new one. Small appliance repair is a popular service. The handyman can often fix an appliance’s problem for a fraction the cost of purchasing a new one. They can usually provide an estimate, if necessary, if repair costs are prohibitive in comparison to replacing the appliance.

It is a simple fact that “handyman” can refer to a variety of professional services. It is important to check with each handyman service to confirm their qualifications and experience. This handyman services list is not complete and you should call Conway Handyman when you need work done.
