About general repairs
A handyman handles the running list of small jobs that are too minor for a specialist trade, from sticking doors and squeaky hinges to patching plaster and re-sealing wet areas. Bundling several jobs into one visit is the cheapest way to use a handyman. Note that licensed electrical and plumbing work must go to a licensed trade.
Getting quotes in Kensington
Before booking a handyman for general repairs, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.
Local knowledge counts
Being in the Inner Adelaide area gives Kensington residents genuine choice for general repairs. That competition keeps quotes honest, provided you actually collect more than one before booking.
Quick answers
How much does a handyman cost per hour?+
Handyman rates commonly run $50 to $100 per hour, often with a minimum call-out of one to two hours. Bundling several small jobs into one visit is the best way to get value, since you are paying for the trip either way. Ask about the minimum charge upfront.
What jobs can a handyman legally do?+
A handyman can do most general repairs, assembly, mounting, patching and minor maintenance, but licensed electrical, plumbing and gas work must go to a licensed tradesperson. If a job touches wiring, water lines or gas, ask the handyman to refer it on rather than risk unlicensed work.
Is there a minimum charge for a handyman?+
Most handymen have a minimum call-out of one to two hours to cover travel and setup, so a five minute job still costs the minimum. This is why it pays to save up a list of small jobs and get them all done in one visit.
