5 Essential Handyman Services Every NYC Apartment Needs

Living in New York City means dealing with tight spaces, older buildings, and fast-paced living. Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, or property manager, having a reliable handyman can save you time, stress, and even money in the long run. At Handy NYC, we know the ins and outs of city living—and we’re here to help. Here are five essential handyman services that every NYC apartment should have on speed dial:

 

1.TV Mounting & Wire Concealment

 

Maximize your space and style with professionally mounted TVs. We’ll secure your screen, hide wires, and ensure everything is level—perfect for that sleek, modern look.

 

2. Furniture Assembly

 

From IKEA builds to custom pieces, we take the stress out of complicated instructions and missing screws. Our pros will get your furniture ready in no time so you can enjoy your space.

 

3. Wall Hanging & Shelving

 

New York apartments don’t always come with storage or good lighting. We install shelves, curtain rods, artwork, mirrors, and more—on any surface, including brick and drywall.

 

4. Minor Repairs & Installations

 

Leaky faucet? Broken cabinet? Need a new light fixture installed? We handle all the small stuff that makes a big difference in your daily comfort.

 

5. COI & Building Requirements

 

Many NYC buildings require Certificates of Insurance (COIs) before any work can begin. Handy NYC provides COIs and works with your building’s management so you don’t have to lift a finger.
