* ''Literature/ConstanceVerityDestroysTheUniverse'': Les Newsmith runs a home-repair business that Connie has on speed-dial to fix the apartment whenever someone or something wrecks it. Not only does he do quality work, but he's a laid-back kind of guy that doesn't give her hell for the steady workload. It also helps that his services came with complementary lollipops.

* ''{{Series/The Chosen|TVSeries}}'': Since Jesus is a carpenter, being a handyman becomes a day job that He continues doing throughout His travels.

* ''Series/DoctorWho''. Chief Engineer Perkins from "Mummy on the Orient Express". He even does some work on the TARDIS and (on pointing out that a proper repair job will take some time) is invited by the Doctor to become a companion. Perhaps wisely, he declines.

* ''VideoGame/DyztopiaPostHumanRPG'': Although Akira is one of the best combatants among the Hunters, they focus more on jobs that directly help people with their everyday problems, such as plumbing or fixing appliances. While this did prevent them from attaining a high rank due to their lack of combat and Zodiac Stone missions, they were also well-respected by Zeta's citizens. This is deconstructed because they're still technically subservient to Zetacorp, the corporation responsible for oppressing Zeta's citizens. Additionally, their popularity causes Zazz to become paranoid of them and scheme to kill them to create an InspirationalMartyr for Zetacorp. This is reconstructed when Akira's popularity as a handyman causes Zetacorp's propaganda campaign against them to be less effective than expected and inspires other people to rebel against Zetacorp.
