A handyman is a multi -skilled trade’s man, generally with carpentry qualification. He will be competent enough to undertake general maintenance. He will have the tools and know how to tackle all of these in a professional work man like manner.
In many cases Real Estate Agents in Perth engage handyman services to assist in maintaining rental properties. This saves the agent the time consuming tasks of hiring multiple trades.
A professional handyman will always avoid the short term quick fix mentality and advise the best long term solution to maintenance issues; because they understand the importance of keeping valuable property assets at a maintainable level. By doing so, when it is time to put the property on the market there will be little maintenance and improvements to undertake, this equates to attracting the correct market value and far less time to prepare the property for market.
Of course there are many levels of handymen, some are semi -retired tradies, some self-taught and others with trade qualifications. Your choice depends on the level of service and professionalism required .e.g. changing lightbulbs, or oiling squeaky doors, or, bathroom renovations, hanging new doors.
