Frequently asked questions about handymans
What kinds of jobs does a handyman do?
Handymen handle a wide range of small-to-medium jobs including furniture assembly, TV mounting, hanging pictures and mirrors, fixing leaking taps, patching walls, installing blinds, and basic tiling repairs.
How much does a handyman charge?
Handyman rates typically range from R250 to R500 per hour. Many handymen offer half-day or full-day rates that work out cheaper if you have a list of small jobs to tackle.
When should I use a handyman versus a specialist tradesperson?
Use a handyman for minor repairs and general maintenance that do not require licensed trade skills. For electrical work requiring a CoC, structural plumbing, or load-bearing structural changes, book the relevant specialist instead.
Can I give a handyman a list of different jobs to complete?
Absolutely — that is one of the best uses of a handyman. Book a half-day or full-day slot and work through your list together. Prioritize jobs in case you run out of time.
Do handymen supply materials?
Some do; many do not. For predictable jobs (like hanging a TV bracket) the handyman usually supplies the hardware. For material-heavy work like tiling, confirm who supplies materials and get a quote beforehand.
Can a handyman fix a leaking tap?
Yes, minor plumbing like replacing tap washers, fixing shower heads, and tightening pipe connections are well within a handyman's scope. Major leaks or burst geysers require a licensed plumber.
