General handyman: what the job involves

An hour, a half day or a day of small jobs around the house — sticking doors, curtain poles, silicone, loose handles, minor repairs and fitting things — the list no single trade wants. A good handyman also tells you which items on the list need a registered electrician, gas installer or plumber instead.

How long it takes: Most lists take a half day or a day; a long list, collecting parts, or a job that turns out bigger than it looked adds time.

The full guide to general handyman — the steps, what is included, the Irish rules, paperwork and questions to ask.
