First things first. It's important to know what a handyman IS and what a handyman ISN'T. A handyman is exactly what the name implies, someone who is handy around the house. A handyman is a person who can take care of general tasks around the house. Further, it's important to distinguish the difference between a general contractor and a handyman. A contractor will be able to perform specific tasks whereas a handyman would be considered a generalist. For example, if you were to need a circuit breaker repaired or rewired, you'd have an electrician (contractor) come out to perform that task. But, if you simply wanted to install a light fixture, a handyman could do that. Similarly, if you wanted to have a water pipe repaired or installed, you would call a plumber (contractor) but if you simply wanted to fix that annoying leaky faucet in the bathroom, a handyman would be able to perform that work.
A handyman might be considered to do "small jobs" around the house, both inside and outside of the home. Following, is a list of things that a handyman can do, but certainly their work is not limited to this list.
