01 / THE HOMES IN LYONS

Why Lyons homeowners and landlords call us

Lyons sits on a compact street grid north of Pearce, close to Woden town centre. It carries some of the older housing stock in the Woden Valley, which comes with an active property-maintenance market, older homes need more regular upkeep, and there is a steady turnover of rental repair work alongside it.

For owners, the list often includes doors that have settled over time, older plaster that moves with the seasons, and gutters that fill from mature street trees. For landlords, it is exit-report items, wall and door repairs, and the quick make-good work that gets a property inspection-ready.

We are a short drive from Lyons, based in Torrens, so coming to you is not an out-of-the-way trip. We give you a straight price before any work starts.

02 / WHAT WE DO

Handyman services we offer in Lyons

These are the jobs we handle for homes and rentals in Lyons and the surrounding Woden Valley streets. If your job is not on the list, call and ask.

Property Maintenance for Owners and Landlords

Lyons has an older, compact housing stock close to Woden town centre, with an active property-maintenance market. We handle the ongoing repair list for owners and the between-tenancy work for landlords: touch-up painting, door and fixture repairs, and general upkeep.

End-of-Lease and Make-Good Repairs

Picture-hook holes, scuffed walls, loose handles, a door that will not latch. We handle the quick make-good repairs that get a Lyons rental inspection-ready without a full repaint.

Doors and Locks

Sticking doors, dragging external doors, sliding doors off their track, locks that no longer catch. Older Lyons homes often need a bit more door adjustment as they settle, we repair, adjust, and re-hang, plus fit deadbolts and handles.

Painting and Wall Repairs

Interior and exterior painting, wall patching, plaster repairs, and crack filling ahead of the paint going on. Older plaster and timber trims are common in Lyons, we work with what is there rather than ripping it out.

Gutter Cleaning and Repairs

Established Lyons streets mean established trees, and they fill gutters fast through autumn. We clear leaf build-up, flush downpipes, re-fix loose brackets, and flag anything that needs attention.

General Maintenance and Installations

TV wall mounts, shelving, picture hanging, flat-pack assembly, appliance installs, and the odd jobs that pile up around an older home or unit. Tell us the list and we work through it in one visit.

Carpentry and Timber Repairs

Shelving, skirting, handrails, timber trim and general carpentry repairs, including the older-style joinery common in Lyons homes. Practical handyman carpentry that does not need a licensed builder.

Flat Pack Assembly and TV Mounting

Flat-pack wardrobes, beds, desks and outdoor settings assembled, levelled and anchored to the wall, plus TV wall mounts and shelving. We bring the tools and take the packaging away.
