How to Find Handyman for Small Jobs

[RocketDog]

I have several small jobs around the house that involve painting, plumbing, tile work, carpentry, electric, etc.

I have no idea how to find folks that do it.

I think most of these workers just use word of mouth.

Asking neighbors, lawn guy, pool guy, etc. has yielded little information. If you've ever asked a local for directions somewhere you can guess how well that works.

 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

A good starting point might be where are you ?

what town etc do we can get local knowledge and input for you.

Have you tried looking for any construction of housing or a new house built going on near you?

That is what I did before.  But, you will probably need to take a Thai with you to translate.

The guys working in construction either will be glad to make some extra money, or possibly direct you to someone who can.

Also, Homepro or a place like Baan and Beyond has lists of people who can do the work.  But, you will probably need to purchase the hardware/construction items from them first.

Hua Hin handyman has website and facebook page.  Not sure if allowed to post links to them here, but it's easy to search

Good point Charlie.

I'm in Hua Hin, Prachuapkirikhan Province.

 

Thanks to kbb6060 & saorsa for ideas. I'll try that when I'm finally released from incarceration!

I hope you get what you need.
