Are there any jobs a handyperson can’t complete?

• <div>Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:<ul><li>Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom</li><li>Replacing plumbing pipes</li><li>Installing or repairing septic systems</li><li>Running new electrical wiring</li><li>Installing a subpanel</li></ul></div>

• <div>On average, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-build-house.htm">cost of a home builder</a> is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:<ul><li>Location of your home and the living cost in the area</li><li>Type of foundation and framing you choose</li><li>Quality of the building materials</li><li>Footprint and layout of the house</li><li>Number of stories</li><li>Builder’s experience</li></ul></div>
