Handyman - An All Rounder?

A handyman, also commonly known as a handyman, handyperson, or handyman, is an individual skilled in a broad assortment of small repairs, usually around the house. These jobs include construction work, maintenance work, fixing electrical wiring, are either exterior and interior, and can be described as either "side job" or "main job" type of work. A handyman can be a plumber, electrician, carpenter, or even a bricklayer; he just needs to fix things around the house. The handyman is not always licensed by the appropriate authorities to do certain types of work.

Handyman repairs come in all shapes and sizes, from light electrical repairs to complete overhauling of major appliances. Some repairs may include construction issues with plumbing pipes, electrical wiring, drywall, painting, or re-carpeting a room. Other handyman jobs would be removing carpet padding to replace it with nicer flooring, installing a new air conditioning unit, or installing an additional electrical outlet to accommodate more electronic equipment. Some handymen are so adept that they do everything from installing light bulbs, to removing warts, to building their own solar panel. All these repairs require specialized tools and skill, and the handyman will generally have more than one tool in his collection of equipment.

Handyman services are available on a regular basis, whether you need an electrician to come and take a look at your home, a plumber to come and take a look at your toilet, a locksmith to help you open a lock, or an installation professional to install a central air conditioning system. In addition, they can also provide light repairs, as well as electrical repairs or installation, and installation of garage door openers. The handyman may be licensed, or may be a non-licensed contractor, depending on state or province laws.
