Handyman Services in Birmingham, AL
Repairs, Installs, and Small Jobs — Vetted Independent Handymen
From a quick repair in Five Points South to a full day of projects in Mountain Brook, our Handyman Services marketplace connects you with experienced independent service providers who bring the vehicle, tools, hardware, and expertise needed to get the job done right. One simple booking process covers furniture assembly, drywall patching, fixture installation, door repairs, shelving, minor electrical and plumbing work, and carpentry tasks throughout Birmingham and surrounding areas. Whether you need one quick fix or a full punch list tackled, our providers arrive ready to work.
Handyman Services is our go-to solution for everything from mounting a TV near Railroad Park to tackling a renovation project in Homewood, Vestavia Hills, Hoover, or Trussville. Our independent providers understand Birmingham's unique housing stock — navigating steep driveways and narrow streets in Highland Park and Avondale, coordinating parking in historic Southside, and working efficiently along corridors like US Highway 280, Interstate 65, and Red Mountain Expressway. Small jobs to full-day projects are fully supported: install ceiling fans in a Crestwood bungalow, repair deck railings in Lakeview, patch drywall near Sloss Furnaces, and hang shelving in a Downtown Birmingham loft — all on one booking.

What makes moving & delivery in Birmingham different
Birmingham's hilly terrain and older neighborhoods often feature steep driveways and narrow streets that require careful navigation for large delivery vehicles.
Many older Birmingham homes lack driveways or garages, requiring parking permits and curbside loading coordination in historic districts.
Summer heat and humidity in Birmingham can impact outdoor labor scheduling, with most residents preferring early morning or late afternoon moves.

What's Included
Why choose VanDeliveryApp for handyman services
A reliable handyman is one of the most useful contacts you can have — and one of the hardest to find on demand. The big repair brands quote a $150 call-out fee before they cross your driveway. The single-operator handymen on Kijiji do not call back. VanDeliveryApp sits in the middle: vetted skilled tradespeople, hourly billing with no call-out fee, and a 1-hour minimum that respects small jobs.
No call-out, no minimum service charge
You pay the hourly rate ($65–$95 depending on trade), in 15-minute increments after the 1-hour minimum. No travel fee, no diagnostic fee, no "we already drove out so this is the minimum" trap.
Licensed where the work requires it
Anything requiring a permit (major electrical, gas-line work, plumbing rerouting, structural changes) gets dispatched to a licensed tradesperson, with the permit handled by us. You never accidentally hire an unlicensed person for licensed work.
Parts sourcing handled, with transparency
Need a part from Home Depot or Canadian Tire? The handyman picks it up, gives you the receipt, and bills materials at cost + 10% sourcing fee. No hidden upcharge, no walking through aisles together.
30-day workmanship guarantee
Anything we install — a shelf, a faucet, a light fixture, a patch of drywall — is guaranteed for 30 days. If it fails (drywall cracks, faucet leaks, fixture wobbles), we come back free.
When people book handyman services
Real-world scenarios this service is built for — pick the one closest to yours when you book.
1The "honey-do" list catch-up
Three loose cabinet doors, one running toilet, a sagging closet rod, and two pictures to hang. One handyman, one Saturday morning, $130 — done.
2Small bathroom and kitchen fixes
New faucet install, cracked toilet flapper, garbage disposal swap, P-trap leak under the sink. Most under 90 minutes including parts pickup.
3Pre-listing home repairs
About to list your home? A handyman can knock out the deferred-maintenance list (caulking, paint touch-ups, door alignment, missing baseboard pieces) in a single day — adds thousands to listing photos.
4Picture, shelf, and TV mounting
Single TV mounting? Book the TV Mounting service. But for "hang 5 paintings, mount 3 floating shelves, and a coat hook by the door" — handyman by the hour is cheaper.
What our customers say
“Mounted three shelves, fixed a running toilet, and patched two drywall holes in 90 minutes. Total game-changer.”
“They sent a licensed electrician for a small panel job. Quoted $180, came in at $165. Honest pricing.”
“Handyman was great. The booking flow could remember my address from last time but otherwise smooth.”
