Frequently Asked Questions
What can a handyman do that a specialist trade cannot?
Handymen are best for small, miscellaneous jobs that do not require specialist qualifications. They can handle furniture assembly, hanging, minor repairs, painting, and general maintenance. For regulated work (gas, notifiable electrical, structural) you will need a qualified tradesperson.
Is a day rate or hourly rate better for handyman work?
For a list of jobs likely to fill a day, a day rate offers better value. For a single small task (like TV mounting or a shelf), an hourly or fixed price for the specific job is usually cheaper.
Can a handyman do minor plumbing work?
Yes — replacing washers, fixing dripping taps, replacing toilet cistern parts, and unblocking drains are all within scope for most handymen. Any work involving the gas supply or major plumbing changes should be referred to a qualified plumber.
Should I provide materials or will the handyman bring them?
For planned work, it is often cheapest to purchase materials yourself in advance. For reactive repairs, a handyman may carry common items (screws, wall plugs, silicone, etc.) and can usually pick up materials from a local merchant if needed.
