"Iâ m so glad to have located First Choice Home Services! After a rapid response to my initial message Barry was able to immediately provide a quote for his services. He was also ready and willing to provide his Certificate of Insurance and jump through a few hoops to satisfy the HOA at our condo. When he came over this past weekend he was hugely helpful in providing some light demo work of our master bedroom closet, as well as patching back the drywall. He brought floor protection with him, swept and cleaned up the mess, and even left us some sandpaper to smooth down the walls once the drywall putty dried. Later he helped my wife secure some seismic anchors to our taller furniture and also helped to fix our front door which was slamming shut! Not only will my wife and I be calling First Choice Home Services back again when in need of a handyman, but we have already recommended Barry to two different friends just within the past week. Choose First Choice and you will definitely be satisfied!"

Handyman Services FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, handymen can offer quick responses to urgent issues like leaks or electrical problems.

The cost to hire a handyman can vary, with most charging on a per-hour or per-project basis. On average, expect to pay between $50 and $150 per hour, with a typical rate around $90 per hour. For project-based work, the average cost is about $400, though the total can range from as low as $180 to $1,500 or more. Some handypeople may also require a minimum flat rate, such as payment for two hours of work.

Several factors influence the final cost, including:

  • The type, size, difficulty, and complexity of the job

  • The amount of time the work takes

  • The handyman's experience level

  • Your geographic location

  • The cost of materials and any necessary permits

  • Accessibility of the work area and potential travel costs

Additionally, you may encounter higher rates or extra fees for emergency services or work scheduled during holidays.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

A contractor specializes in a specific field. They often operate in teams where they have subcontractors to handle specialized problems. So if you have significant plumbing, drywall, or roofing issues, you’ll want to hire a contractor, as the job may require a team.

A handyperson is typically one person who works on whatever jobs come their way. You wouldn’t call a contractor to fix the hinges on cabinets or paint your room. Instead, a handyperson can handle all these issues, saving you from making multiple phone calls.

Discuss design preferences and material choices before work begins for cohesive results.
