Our Handyman Services Process
Tell Us What's on the List
One job or ten — tell us what needs doing, big or small.
We Quote the Visit
For a list of small jobs, we quote it as one visit rather than pricing each job separately — it's more efficient for both of us.
We Knock It Over
We work through the list in one visit where possible, so you're not booking in five separate call-outs.
Done, Not Half-Done
Everything checked before we leave — no coming back next week for something that should've been sorted the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a handyman cost in the Illawarra?+
As a rough guide, hourly rates typically run $80–$120, and a half-day mixed-job visit (around 4 hours) runs $350–$500. Bundling several small jobs into one visit is generally more cost-effective than booking separate call-outs.
Can you do multiple small jobs in one visit?+
Yes — that's actually the most common way this service gets used. Tell us everything on your list and we'll quote it as one visit rather than pricing each job separately.
Is there a job too small to call you for?+
No — if it's been sitting on your to-do list because it's "too small" to bother a tradie with, that's exactly what this service is for.
What jobs can't a handyman do?+
Anything requiring a licensed electrician or plumber for regulated work (like rewiring or gas fitting) needs that specific licensed trade. For everything else — general repairs, installation, fixture replacement, minor carpentry — we've got it covered, and we'll tell you upfront if something needs a different tradesperson.
Do you service my suburb?+
We cover Wollongong and the surrounding Illawarra — see the service areas list below. If you're just outside it, get in touch anyway and we'll check.
How quickly can you come out?+
Fast response is one of our core promises — get in touch and we'll give you a realistic timeframe rather than a vague "we'll call you back."
