Frequently asked questions 👇
As a guide, most small jobs are flat-priced per task at around R550 to R750, plus materials. Typical examples: picture and mirror hanging (up to 4 items) or light fitting swaps (up to 3) at about R550, TV wall mounting (up to 65 inches) at roughly R590, flat-pack assembly (per item), appliance installation or minor plumbing fixes at around R650, and gutter cleaning (up to 20m, single storey) at about R750. Larger or specialised work is quoted individually. These are estimates, and bundling several tasks into one visit usually works out cheapest.
For tenant change-overs and maintenance: patching and painting walls, fixing doors, locks, and cupboards, replacing tap washers and toilet seats, and sorting the small items on inspection reports. A reliable handyman who can quote from photos keeps turnaround between tenants short, and vacancies usually cost more than repairs.
They do. Plenty of pros on Kandua in Johannesburg handle after-hours and weekend call-outs. As a guide, emergency and after-hours work usually runs at about 1.5–2× the standard rate, so it's worth confirming the rate and what counts as after-hours with your Pro upfront.
Every pro on Kandua is vetted before they can quote on jobs, and their reviews come from verified customers in and around Johannesburg, not anonymous ratings. Jess, Kandua’s AI home companion, also helps you scope the job properly first, so you’re matched with a handyman who actually does that type of work.
Handyman reviews in Johannesburg area
I hired Standwell, and he repainted the inside and outside walls of my house, fixed and installed broken cupboards and doors. His work is up to standard, and I was happy with his services. I can recommend him to anyone who needs his services.
He is an excellent service provider. I have used his services a number of times and he has never disappointed me. He is a reliable and honest professional. He does not need to be managed at all. His prices are competitive with no comebacks. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who requires his services.
Diketso did a wonderful job of installing tiles, ceiling and kitchen cupboards at my house. I was very happy and satisfied with his work. The price was fair considering the quality of his work. The customer service that I received was excellent. I will certainly recommend his services to other people.
The company which was suppossed to do carport for us let us down so we subcontracted Vusi to do shadeport for us. It was a fantastic job and everything was done properly. They explained everything and they did what they were supposed to do in a proffessional manner. He is honest, reliable and I highly recommend him
Very friendly, honest and willing. He arrived when he said he would and didn’t the job on time.
I have been working closely with Antony for over two years now. He has been doing painting and waterproofing for me on several occasions and have never had any problems with his work. He is very neat and the quality of his service is top-notch. Would strongly recommend him.
I have a shop in Johannesburg and he comes by to clean and repair machines. Whenever I need him, I call him, and is always available. Kgosi's work is excellent, neat, and he goes the extra mile to satisfy the client. Kgosi is ver friendly, convenient, and professional. I recommend his services.
I was completely impressed with the work that Max and his team did at my place. They came out to build a wall and do paving. Their work is superb and I cannot fault them for anything. Their pricing was fair for the work they did. They worked tirelessly and completed all the work quickly and efficiently. Would be more than happy to recommend their services to anyone.
I ahve used Wiseman's renovation services on two projects. He mainly worked on painting, tiling, ceilings, and maintenance of bathrooms. He is good at what he does and keeps a clean work environment I recommend his services.
He installed kitchen cupboards for me from scratch and he installed tiles in my entire three bedroom house that is in a complex. He came on time and he did a good job which he finished in six days. He cleaned up after his work and I was impressed with the service that he rendered to me. The price that he charged me was fair and the work was on point. I would not mind recommending him to anyone who may need his services. He is professional and he is good at what he does.
