We are a small business, but are proficiently skilled in most household areas. Basically no major electric or plumbing, such as running new lines or breakers. I have had my own LLC for a few years now but have been in this type of work for as long as I can remember. From landscaping, to deck building, fences, to fascia. If you have an issue at your home or business we can likely tackle the problem.

"Awesome! We are very pleased with the outcome. Outstanding repair and painting, better than expected! Story and Jen were very professional!"

FAQs for caulking service projects in Malvern, AR

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
