Handymen typically charge $50-$100 per hour, with a minimum service fee of $100-$200. Some charge per project. Get quotes for specific tasks rather than hourly for larger projects to avoid surprises.
Handymen handle small repairs and projects: mounting TVs, minor plumbing/electrical fixes, drywall patches, furniture assembly, door hanging, painting small areas. Licensed contractors are needed for permitted work and major renovations.
Requirements vary by location. Some states require handyman licenses; others exempt small jobs under certain dollar amounts. Handymen shouldn't perform work requiring trade licenses (major electrical, plumbing, HVAC).
Hire a handyman for small, general tasks or multiple small jobs. Hire specialists for complex work requiring expertise (electrical panels, plumbing rough-in, structural work) or jobs requiring permits.
Make a list of all tasks, prioritize them, clear work areas, and have materials on hand if possible. Group similar tasks together for efficiency. Discuss the full list upfront so the handyman can estimate time and cost.
Reputable handymen carry liability insurance and may have workers' comp. Always verify insurance before hiring. Ask for a certificate of insurance. This protects you from liability if something goes wrong.
