Don't have a 2 year gap on your resume. Mention something. Any applicable volunteering? You could always just say "Handyman" with the timeframe and list a few of your skills (dry wall, plumbing, electrical, what-not).
Include in your list of references one from your handyman work. Friends that have seen you in a hard-working, professional light make great references.
If they ask why you chose to be a handyman for the past two years, then you can mention you had some health concerns that were preventing you from keeping a regular schedule. Be sure to say that your health concerns have been resolved.
