Handymen have skills in carpentry, painting, and remodeling for both interior and exterior of properties. They can repair and maintain plumbing, electrical, and masonry work, as well as perform tasks such as building cabinets and installing appliances. They are also hired for outdoor jobs such as landscaping and pool maintenance.
A handyman has the necessary skills to maintain and repair the interior and exterior of homes and commercial properties. Crafts include carpentry, painting, and remodeling. Many handymen also have the skills needed for simple electrical and plumbing work.
Crafts often require the experience needed to redo a room from scratch. For example, kitchens and bathrooms are the parts of the home that are most frequently renovated and require a craftsman with skills in many areas. If there is a leak, a rotten subfloor may need to be replaced and covered with tile, carpet, linoleum, hardwood, or laminate flooring. Damaged walls may need to be replaced or repaired and faulty plumbing replaced. Toilets and sinks may also need to be repaired or installed new ones.
In the kitchen, a handyman’s tasks may include refacing, building, and installing cabinets. Countertops, sinks, dishwashers, garbage disposals, and ovens may need to be installed, and a versatile handyman will be able to perform simple repairs on some appliances as well. He should have the ability to perform both general tasks like painting and more specific tasks like connecting the ice maker in a refrigerator to the house’s plumbing. Indoor cabinetmaker tasks may also include assembling furniture, hanging doors, knocking down walls, and installing ceiling fans, air conditioners, and light fixtures. Hanging wallpaper, repairing damaged ceilings, and installing molding and baseboards are other common woodwork jobs.
The exterior of houses and other buildings also requires the skills of a handyman to maintain. Some outdoor crafts require the knowledge to replace siding and roofing. Installing, repairing and cleaning gutters are other common outdoor jobs.
Many crafts require the skills of a mason. Some handymen can build stone or brick patios, arches, walls, paths, and flowerbeds. A good handyman can also prepare the ground, create forms, and pour concrete on driveways, steps, patios, garage floors, and other projects. For any project that requires expertise that he cannot provide, the technician will know who to contact to complete the job.
Some crafts require one person to clean the pools and maintain the landscape. A handyman can trim or cut trees and pull them out. Apartment complexes and parks hire handymen to clean, maintain and repair their buildings, playgrounds, tennis courts and swimming pools. Real estate agencies and property management companies also hire people to maintain their properties.
