Have something done

Change the sentence so that someone else did it. Use had.
I cleaned my house.

Change the sentence. Use had.
My brother repaired his car.

Have something done

Have + object + past participle (have something done)

We usually use 'have something done' when we are talking about paying someone to do something for us. 

--> The form is 'subject + have + object + past participle'.

• I had my car washed.
• John will have his house painted.

Change the sentence.
I washed my car.

Change the sentence.
John will paint his house.

The verb tense must be the same as the example sentence.

The form is 'subject + have + object + past participle'.

John will paint his house (=himself)

John  will have his car painted. (=someone does it for him)

(----> Future Simple)

We can also use 'subject + get + object + past participle'. This has the same meaning as 'have', but is less formal.

informal:
John got his car fixed last week (past simple)

I'll get my hair cut next week (future simple)

formal:
 I will have my hair cut next week. 

Change this sentence. Use get.
I will cut my hair next week.

Change this sentence. Use get.
He fixed his washing machine.

Change the sentences so they use the structure 'have something done' or 'get something done'.
