    Russ and his wife were great. The work we needed done was the unpacking and construction of an outdoor sauna that was scheduled to be delivered on one date, but arrived 2 days later. Russ was great at keeping in phone contact and even rearranged his availability to do the job after the sauna arrived late, as we had nowhere to store the goods and are aged and therefore unable to transfer the goods from the delivery point to the rear garden. Russ and his wife undertook the entire job. They unpacked the sauna, constructed and tested it, and then disposed of the pallet and packaging materials. Courteous, competent, and obliging we have no hesitation in recommending Russ and we were delighted with the entire service and work of Burston Handyman Services. Thanks very much Russ & Co.

    Russ is fantastic! We recently finished a large renovation project but we also wanted some additional details attended to. Russ gave us a couple of ideas and we used his advice - perfect result, couldn't be happier. Have given his business card to 2 friends as well! What was also impressive was that Russ was efficient, punctual and respectful of our space. We are now in the process of drawing up the 'Russ list', which means lots of details will be addressed and done well.

    Russ went above & beyond giving my investment property a makeover for auction. Since i'm interstate, he did the entire project management. We received so many compliments from the real estate & buyers for the quality of workmanship. We achieved an excellent result thanks to the work done by Burston Handyman Services and wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

    I thoroughly recommend Burston Handyman Services. Russell was quick to respond to my enquiry, quick to arrange a time to do the work, and very diligent and careful in doing the work. And very well priced too. I'd have no hesitation in using Burston Handyman Services in the future.

Frequently asked questions

How much do handymen typically charge?
Costs vary widely depending on the task, its complexity and how long the job takes. Simple single-visit repairs or flatpack assembly are typically less than multi-item or specialist work that requires extra trades. This page shows live pricing to help you compare quotes and identify cost drivers.
Do handymen charge call-out fees?
Many handymen charge a call-out fee to attend a property, which is often separate from hourly labour and materials. After-hours attendance or weekend work commonly attracts higher rates. It's a good idea to confirm whether the call-out is included in the quote or charged separately.
What qualifications should I look for in a handyman?
Handymen are generally unlicensed for small jobs, so look for industry affiliations such as the Handyman and Home Maintenance Association, Housing Industry Association (HIA) membership or Master Builders involvement for larger-scope work. Check they hold an ABN, adequate public liability insurance and can provide a clear written quote separating labour and materials. For jobs that become large or high-value, confirm whether a state contractor licence or builder registration may be required.
