Home Repair Services

One name, four home trades

Home Repair Services offers four trades on Hiyaa, a Maldives rentals and home-services site: carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, and construction and renovation. All four listings went live on 22 April 2026. Its provider page places the business in Malé. Under each trade below sit a few general tips for hiring that kind of work.

Carpentry and woodwork

The carpentry listing covers kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, custom furniture, and the fitting and repair of doors. Before anything is cut, ask for a drawing with measurements and the board or timber type in writing. Name the hinge and handle brand you want, and check that fitting is part of the price.

Plumbing and water

Its plumbing listing names pipe leaks, drain unblocking, toilet and sink repair, water pump repair and oil trap cleaning. An oil trap, often called a grease trap, is a box that catches cooking fat before it reaches the drain. For a leak, ask how the plumber will find its source before replacing parts, and whether re-sealing any lifted tiles is in the quote. For a pump, ask whether it needs repair or replacement, who supplies a new one, and whether the pipe connections are included.

Electrical and wiring

On the electrical side, the provider page names panel work, breaker faults, new lights, socket repairs and general wiring. When a breaker trips again and again, the cause needs tracing, not just another reset. The panel is the distribution board that holds the breakers, so after any panel job, ask for a labelled board that shows which room each breaker feeds.

Construction, renovation and painting

The construction and renovation listing covers renovation works, masonry, tiling, ceiling installation, flooring, wall repair and painting. For a larger renovation, ask for a written scope and payments tied to stages of finished work. Agree who gets building-management approval, and how the work fits the building's noise hours.

Tiling and painting sit on that same listing. On tiling, settle who supplies the tiles and adhesive, and keep a few spare tiles for later repairs. In a bathroom, ask whether waterproofing under the tiles is a separate line. For painting, get the surface preparation, primer, paint brand and number of coats in writing. If a wall is damp or peeling, have the cause fixed first, such as a leak, before anyone repaints.
