    Howard the Handyman is a true professional! From the initial contact stage, through the quote stage, through the completion of job stage, to the paying of the invoice stage. Nothing was to difficult. Nothing was to insignificant. We approached Howard to do a dozen or more jobs around our newly completed house. Howard had the know how, understanding, and experience to undertake and complete each job in an efficient, cost effective, and timely manner. Howard was willing to listen, ask questions, answer questions, and provide helpful advice and suggestions. The jobs we approached Howard to do consisted of a variety of both carpentry work and metal work. Howard started the job when he said he would start the job. Howard finished the job when he said he would finish the job. Howard billed for the job what he said he would bill for the job. Howard did the job that he said he would do in the way he said he would do it. Thank you Howard for your professional, courteous, pleasant, and hard working manner. Thank you very much Howard for doing a great job and charging a reasonable amount. I would definitely recommend Howard the Handyman to do all your miscellaneous handyman jobs! Victor Boronia.

    Howard is a prompt, reliable and skilled handyman. We are very happy with the clever job he completed: replacing weatherboards with new, replacing broken window glass and outside frame, painting, as well as possum proofing. The back of the house looks great and he also left the work space neat and tidy. We definitely recommend Howard.

    Howard did a terrific job. Anything and everything was done to perfection. Painting grouting, plaster patching. He even hung some curtain tracks and rods. Such a happy lovely guy and always on time.

Handyman costs & guides

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.
Does Handyman Howard have a verified ABN?
Yes. Handyman Howard has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
