Handymen in Perth offer a wide range of services, covering both your home and your outdoor area. They do a lot of different tasks around the house, including general labour services, indoor and outdoor installations and repairs, and much more.

While many homeowners decide to handle many of these typical home repairs on their own, hiring a handyman gives you room to work on other things, prioritise your time better and take care of any small problems that arise in a timely and safe manner. On Handymate you can find exceptional handyman services in Perth including:

Door installation and replacement

Some of the main general handyman services include exterior and interior door installations and replacement. This service includes removing and disposing of the old door, replacing it with a new one, and installing all of the necessary door hardware such as locks, knobs and so on. Other door issues that are covered in their services include fixing sticking, squeaking or damaged doors, damaged jambs, broken locks and much more.

Lock installation

Standard lock installation includes drilling and installing a lock on a wooden door, removing the old lock and cleaning up afterwards. The lock can be supplied by the customer, or it can be included in the services as well.

Drywall repair

Drywall repair services include the labour and supply of basic materials and tools needed to repair or replace damaged drywall. The service covers repairing holes, and any kind of damage from kids and pets, regular wear and tear, moisture, rodents, and so on.

Painting interior and exterior walls and fixtures

One of the most common services offered by handymen is painting the interior or exterior of a house, as well as additional painting services such as refurbishing cabinets, painting doors and windows, patios and patio furniture and so on. While many homeowners choose to tackle such painting projects themselves, if you're looking for a professional result, you should definitely consider hiring a reliable handyman that has years of experience under his or her belt.

Roof maintenance

One of the services typically offered by a handyman is roof inspections and maintenance, which includes a thorough inspection and minor roof repairs, such as sealing exposed nails, securing loose flashings, resealing plumbing and exhaust vents and more. The main benefits of regular roof maintenance and repair include extending your roof’s service life, avoiding leaks and further damage from occurring and reducing your energy costs by having proper insulation.

Furniture and home equipment repair

If you have furniture that’s broken or damaged, you’re oftentimes better off hiring a handyman to fix it, rather than replacing it with new furniture, which is a more expensive, less eco-friendly option. Depending on the type of fixing your furniture needs, your handyman will advise you on what the best option for you is. A handyman who is experienced with carpentry can fix any wooden furniture you have, while those with an electrical background can fix your fitness equipment, your ceiling fan, and even do minor repairs on other home equipment and appliances.

Small installations and repairs

Other than the services we mentioned so far, you can also call in a handyman to do small repairs around the kitchen, bathroom or any other room in your home, as well as your outdoor area. This covers fixing broken fixings and equipment in the house, as well as in your garden.

Other local handyman services available in Perth include bricklaying and building work, tiling, concreting, roofing, plastering, furniture assembly, gutter cleaning and repair, installing home security systems, ceiling repair, AC installations, property maintenance and other maintenance services, as well as other types of indoor and outdoor odd jobs.

There are several factors that can affect the price of handyman services. To get a clearer picture of how your local Perth handymen price their services, take a look at the following factors:

Scope of work

Since handyman jobs can vary a lot from one another, the price for each specific job is often very different. Thus the cost of handyman services depends mainly on the complexity of the work, the materials used and other similar factors.

The handyman's experience

Another factor that may influence the cost of these services is the handyman's experience level. Seasoned professionals typically price their services higher than novice handyman, as they have the required skills and expertise to finish the job faster and offer superior quality compared to that of newcomers.

Location

Depending on your location, your handyman will determine whether or not you need to pay additional travel fees, which apply for jobs that are outside the handyman's service area.

Supplies and materials needed

The cost of the supplies and materials needed for your project will also be added to the cost of the service. This additional cost can be avoided if you already have the required materials or if you decide to get them yourself beforehand.

Additional services

If you require extra services in addition to the ones you agreed upon at the beginning of the project, or if an unexpected issue arises in the meantime, you can expect to pay additional charges if you want your handyman to address that problem as well.

These are some of the main factors our professional tradesmen use to determine the cost of your overall service.
