You might have heard people talk about odd jobs or perhaps someone said they needed an “odd job man” but what does that mean?
An odd job man is someone who is skilled at various odd jobs and other small tasks. The Cambridge Dictionary defines odd jobs as, “small jobs of different types, especially those that involve repairing or cleaning things.” If you’re stuck, scratching your head and thinking “Who do I call to get this done?” That’s an odd job.
At the Handy Squad, our experienced handyman can complete a variety of odd jobs. So, what types of odd jobs can our handymen complete? From boxing in pipes to draught proofing homes, our versatile traders can get all sorts done.
Types of odd jobs.
Install and/or replace bath screens.
Want to install a new bath screen or replace an old bath screen? Perhaps you want to fit a shower screen? An odd job man will be able to give you a helping hand. If you want to further refresh the look of your bathroom, why not get our London plumbers to install a stunning new bathtub or our tilers to regrout bathroom tiles.

Box in pipework.
Pipework is not something pretty to look at. You might want to get someone in to hide it and make your bathroom look modern and sleek once again. Whether you want a professional to box in plumbing pipes in the bathroom or box in pipework in the kitchen, that’s a task for an odd job man.
Cable tidying.
Cable tidying is essential for the home or office (or home office!). Loose cables are a tripping hazard and a pet’s favourite to nibble on. Prevent injuries by tidying loose cables and wires properly. Our handyman in London can tidy away cables in your workplace or hide television cables away from view.

Replace ceiling tiles.
Ceiling tiles, also known as ceiling panels, get stained and broken after years of use. Give your office a new look by having professionals replace ceiling tiles. It might seem like a small change but it will have a big impact on the overall look of the office space.

Draught proofing.
No more draughts in the house coming from unwanted gaps in your windows, doors, letterboxes and more. Save money on heating and ensure you are warm during the cold days of winter by draughtproofing your property.
Lift and shift furniture.
Moving furniture around the house might seem like an easy task to some. However, moving large pieces of furniture by yourself will prove to be a bad choice (and you might hurt yourself in the process). Hire handyman to take care of the heavier stuff and redecorate your home. We can lift and shift furniture and help with various other odd jobs.

Replace toilet seat.
Want to swap your old toilet seat with a new one but are not sure how to do it or don’t want the time to do it yourself? Maybe your toilet seat broke and you need help replacing it? Our team will be able to help.

Fit gun cabinets.
If you are a licensed gun holder and need a safe place to store your firearms, our team can easily fit gun cabinets, from small gun cabinets to large gun cabinets, depending on your collection.
These are some of the odd jobs our team can complete. Have more odd jobs you’d like us to do? Contact us today and speak to one of our team members to let us know how we can help.
