So, why hire a handyman in the first place?
1. Touch Up The Paint
Whether it’s interior or exterior, a fresh coat of paint has the potential to make your property appear brighter and newer. While it can be tempting just to paint the place yourself, if you’re looking to get the best price for your home, you’ll want to hire a professional to help you out. The Hire A Hubby team comprises professional handymen with experience in a massive range of jobs, so you can rest assured your property is getting the best paint job possible.
A Hubby’s Tip: When choosing a colour for your paint jobs, pick something future-proof and neutral. This allows buyers to visualise their furniture in the property and calling the space home.
2. Improve The Curb Appeal

A Hubby’s Tip: Use the same material/colour/finishes across your kitchen, bathroom, and laundry to tie the rooms of your property together.
4. Fix Your Lighting
The right lighting can make such a significant difference to the overall appearance of your property. Dim lighting won’t illuminate the best features of your home, nor will it entice buyers inside. A subtle way to improve your property’s overall look is to change lightbulbs and replace light fittings where they look aged and outdated. Any electrical work is subject to licencing and subcontractors may be engaged if our Hubbies don’t have the licence to do this work.
