When you search for "handyman Melbourne" online, you'll find dozens of options. What makes one handyman service better than another? For us, it comes down to three fundamental principles that guide everything we do.
Genuine Expertise: Our founder Shane didn't just decide to become a handyman overnight. He grew up in Far North Queensland surrounded by skilled tradespeople, spending weekends on building sites learning carpentry, plumbing, renovation work, and general construction. After 30 years managing operations at Wesfarmers, he combined that hands-on trade knowledge with professional business management skills to create a handyman service that delivers on both quality work and reliable service.
Complete Transparency: We believe you deserve to know exactly what you're paying for and why. Our handyman quotes are detailed and comprehensive, outlining labor costs, materials needed, and realistic timeframes. We explain what needs doing and why, never padding jobs with unnecessary work or surprising you with hidden charges. If we discover additional issues during the work, we discuss them with you before proceeding.
Accountability: Every handyman service we perform in Melbourne comes with our comprehensive 12-month warranty covering both workmanship and materials. This isn't just a marketing promise – it's our commitment to standing behind our work. If issues arise with anything we've done, we return to fix them at no additional cost. We're fully licensed and carry comprehensive public liability insurance, protecting both you and your property.
Why Melbourne Homeowners Choose Timmo the Handyman
What sets Timmo the Handyman apart from other Melbourne handyman services is our comprehensive range of capabilities. Instead of needing to coordinate multiple specialists for different tasks, you have one reliable contact who can handle virtually any home improvement challenge you face.
Our handyman services span nine core areas, each delivered with the same attention to detail and commitment to quality:
General Repairs and Maintenance form the backbone of our handyman services in Melbourne. We fix sticky doors that frustrate you every time you open them, patch holes in walls from picture hooks or accidental damage, repair leaking taps that waste water and money, replace worn locks that compromise security, fix squeaky floorboards that disturb household peace, and handle countless other repair tasks that make the difference between a house that merely functions and a home that works perfectly.
Professional Installations require precision and experience. Our Melbourne handyman service includes installing blinds and curtains that operate smoothly, mounting shelving that's level and secure, setting up kitchen storage solutions that maximize space, fitting pet doors that seal properly, installing air conditioning units safely, and handling any installation task with the care and expertise it deserves.
Carpentry Work encompasses everything from minor repairs to custom projects. We build and repair decks, construct and fix fences, create custom shelving tailored to your space, repair or replace damaged timber, install trim and molding, and apply our carpentry expertise wherever wood is involved in your home.
Minor Plumbing Services cover non-licensed plumbing tasks. Our handyman handles dripping tap repairs, washer replacements, drain clearing, gutter repairs and replacement, toilet seat installation, tap upgrades, and other plumbing work that doesn't require specialized licensing but still demands professional expertise.

Looking for a Reliable Handyman in Melbourne?

Hi, I'm Shane, the founder of Timmo the Handyman. Originally from Far North Queensland in Townsville, I grew up surrounded by tradies and spent my weekends on building projects learning carpentry, plumbing, renovations, and general construction.
After spending over 30 years with Wesfarmers as an operations manager, I brought my corporate experience together with lifelong trade skills to launch Timmo the Handyman here in Melbourne in 2020.
I've built this handyman business on simple values: show up when you say you will, do the job right the first time, and treat people's homes with the same respect you'd treat your own. Whether it's a small fix or a full-scale renovation, I take pride in delivering high-quality results backed by genuine service and reliability.
