“Can your handyman do X?” — people ask us this every day. The short answer is: if it’s a home job that doesn’t require a licensed specialist (gas fitter, complete rewiring, structural work), a handyman can almost certainly take care of it. Below is a clear breakdown of what HandyMan24 handles, category by category, so you know exactly what to expect when you get in touch.

What a Handyman Does NOT Do
Small Home Repairs Warsaw — Where the Limits Are
A handyman stops where the work calls for formal qualifications or permits:
- Gas work. Installing a gas boiler, rerouting gas pipes, connecting a gas cooktop to mains — this must be done by a licensed gas engineer.
- Full electrical rewiring. Installing new circuits or replacing a fuse box requires a certified electrician with SEP qualifications.
- Structural changes. Removing walls, cutting new openings, extending rooms — this needs an architect and a building permit.
- Full bathroom/kitchen renovation. A handyman can do separate jobs (tap, cabinet, painting), but a full gut-and-rebuild is work for a general contractor.
Why One Handyman Is Better Than Five Specialists
The average Warsaw flat has a list of 5-10 small jobs waiting at any moment: a shelf to hang, a dripping tap, a door that catches, a flickering light, scuffed paint in the hallway. Hiring five separate specialists (plumber, electrician, carpenter, painter, locksmith) means five scheduling problems, five minimum call-out charges, and five different people coming into your apartment. One handyman visit gets all of it done in one afternoon.
Real Example: One Visit in Żoliborz, 7 Tasks
A client in Żoliborz booked one HandyMan24 visit for: putting together a bookshelf, hanging 3 pictures, replacing a bathroom tap, adjusting a kitchen cabinet door, installing a ceiling light, patching 4 wall holes, and mounting a TV bracket. The handyman arrived at 9:00 and was done by 14:00. One invoice, one visit, seven issues handled.
FAQ
What’s the minimum booking?
There’s no minimum number of tasks. Even one small job (hanging one picture, adjusting one door) counts as a valid booking.
Can I combine tasks from different categories?
Of course — that’s exactly the idea. Plumbing + carpentry + electrical + painting in one visit is normal for us.
Do you bring tools or do I need my own?
The handyman arrives with a full set of tools. Standard fasteners (screws, rawlplugs) are included. Special materials (specific paint colour, fixtures) are either supplied by you or bought by us — billed separately.
How do I know what my task will cost?
Every service has a listed price on our price list. You know the cost before you book — no surprises.
