Handyman Services

 

A handyman performs a wide range of simple to complex odd jobs.  Handyman services are performed at commercial or residential locations.  They do these jobs for individuals or groups. Many homeowners use a handyman to perform jobs that they neither have the time or skills to accomplish.

A handyman provides a number of services indoors in various areas.  These areas include general maintenance, plumbing, electrical, cleaning, masonry, and renovations.  For instance, a handyman may replace light bulbs, dispose trash, tighten appliance or cabinetry hardware, clean drains, fix leaky pipes, test wiring, touch up painted surfaces, polish floors, replace windows, and fix broken tile.  In addition, they may cut and lay new tile, assemble prefabricated furniture, install new flooring, or custom build new cabinets or furniture.

A handyman can also provide maintenance to outdoor areas as well.  Those areas include landscapes, yards, outside buildings, and walkways.  A handyman can even clean gutters and the exterior of buildings.  They can remove leaves, fallen branches, snow, and other debris form walkways as well.  Sometimes they weed flowerbeds as well as gardens.  Other duties a handyman may perform are repairing outdoor structures and furniture that were damaged by age, weather, or accident.  They can also be hired to replace bricks in brick walkways, repair outside furniture, fix cracks in concrete sidewalks, and remove mold from decks as well.

There are some handymen that service equipment in and around buildings.  For instance, a handyman that has experience with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning may inspect an HVAC system before winter approaches.  The may replace any heating or air filters, clean vents, or either schedule repairs if they are needed.  Some handymen may be experienced with fire or security alarm systems.  They can make repairs, test systems, and report on areas that need repair.

So, the advantage to hiring a handyman is that you will often pay less than an industry-specific contractor.

I am looking for my next big adventure. There are still many places I want to visit and even more to which I want to return. The camera is charged up and my backpack is packed; drop me a line if you know where I should go next.
