I was watching An Idiot Abroad and Karl was in Japan. Whilst he was there he did a job called a "Benriyah." I am probably spelling it wrong, though.
What they did would be simply to do jobs people didn't or couldn't do. He washed a lady's windows for her, so there's that. I researched it a bit and they're basically like simple, convenient handymen.
If someone were to start this in the US would it potentially be lucrative? Seems like an interesting idea, honestly. Could help out old folks too.
Sounds like a simple hire-a-hubby business. They're everywhere. Good if you have general maintenance skills like changing tap washers, fixing garden retic, cleaning gutters, hanging a door.

Pretty much. CL or Taskrabbit your skills OP. If you don't fuck up or flake on appointments you might not get rich but not a bad way to pick up a few $$. Have a personality.
>once worked for a temp agency and spent 3 days rearranging furniture in some old lady's house basically because she was lonely.
