"I recently hired Gibbs Handyman Services and had the pleasure of working with Sam, who did an excellent job installing my water heater and completing some electrical work in my home. From start to finish, Sam was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. He made sure the water heater installation was done correctly, tested everything to ensure it was working perfectly, and even explained how to maintain it. The electrical repairs were also top-notch. Sam handled the wiring with care, ensuring everything was safe, up to code, and neatly finished. It’s clear that he has a high level of skill and takes pride in his work. What impressed me most was how reliable and detail-oriented Sam was. If you’re looking for a handyman in [your city/area] who can handle both plumbing and electrical services, I highly recommend Gibbs Handyman Services. Sam made the whole process stress-free, and I’ll definitely be calling them again for future home projects."

"I’ve used Cavender Handyman Services a few times now, and every time I’m impressed. Daniel is one of those guys who really takes pride in his work. He’s handled several plumbing jobs for me — installing toilets, replacing faucets, and taking care of other plumbing issues — and everything turned out great. Daniel always shows up when he says he will, gets the job done right, and doesn’t leave a mess behind. He explains what he’s doing in plain English and makes sure you’re comfortable with the plan before he starts. You can tell he actually cares about the quality of his work and his customers. If you need someone reliable for plumbing work, toilet installs, faucet installs, or just general handyman help, I definitely recommend Cavender Handyman Services. Daniel’s the kind of person you can trust to get it done right the first time."

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

While handypeople do not need to be licensed in many places, you should only hire insured pros for any home improvement work. Your handyperson should have active liability coverage that protects them and you in the case of an error or accident. Furthermore, if they have employees on your property, they should also have workers’ compensation insurance. If you hire an individual or a company that is not insured and they damage your property, have an accident while on the job, or become injured on your property without insurance, you can be held financially liable.

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.

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.

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:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

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).
