"I found Dave The Handyman through Angie's List. He called me with in the hour, and was able to come out to install my new water heater same day. His price was reasonable, and lower than others that I had inquired with. He worked quick, and was very friendly and easy to talk to. He even gave us some advice on other home improvement tasks we're looking into. I'd definitely hire him again for tasks in my home."

"I finally found a company that has excellent customer service, communication and outstanding workmanship! I had called for a very fast turnaround in timing for handymanâ s projects around house. They did not disappoint by replaced toilet, finished and fixed unfinished flooring, fixed bathroom exhausted fan and installed new outside lighting. I have to also mention not just handyman work but I appreciated the knowledge on educating me on household safeguards. I am hiring again very soon. Thank you!"

Handyman Services FAQs, answered by experts

Aside from a professional light installation company, there are a few other pros who may be able to help you hang Christmas lights. Along with specialty holiday decorators, a handyperson near you can also hang Christmas lights (and can fix that pesky drippy sink while they’re at it). Either way, not all of these pros will offer the service, so be sure to call ahead and get multiple quotes before you hire.

In most states, handypeople do not need to be licensed to perform simple home repair tasks and smaller jobs. When projects exceed specific cost amounts, however, ranging from $500 in California to $50,000 in other states, some municipalities consider them to be contractors, meaning they need to be licensed. To learn if your handyperson should be licensed to work on your job, contact your local governing body or state contractors’ licensing board before starting any work.

You can find a reliable handyperson by looking at professionals in your area and ruling out companies with poor reviews online. Next, check each handyperson on the Better Business Bureau to see if they have a history of complaints and rule out those that do. Finally, you can contact each handyperson to ask the following qualifying questions:

  • What is your hourly rate?

  • Are there any jobs you can’t tackle?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Do you have references I can contact?

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

Reviewing your contract for termination terms is best when ending a relationship with a contractor. If there is nothing in the contract or you had a verbal agreement, communicate your decision in writing, citing specific reasons. Afterward, pay for the completed work per your original agreement. Remember you want a record of all correspondence in case you need a lawyer later to settle disputes.
