I & A RemodelingMatt is excellent. This is the third time I've used him. I did ask him to use a premium caulk this time around (lasts years longer than regular). He went out and bought it, used it, and left the rest with me. I paid him for the caulk ($25 vs $7 for a regular grade), got a great deal with an...
Mr GroutSo far, you?re supposed to wait 72 hours to let the caulking set. So far, they did a really nice job.
Renewal By AndersenChris answered the phone and he was here a couple hours later. While walking through the inspection, he pointed out hot spots that I should repair, old or missing caulking. Chris then did his job and our uninvited guests should be gone. As always pricing is very fair and Bigfoot does the...
The crew was 2 hours late. They raised the sidewalk, filled the step and the section of the sidewalk, but did not fill the void between the sidewalk and the house. When asked about the void, the person doing the work said he was not aware of the filling of the void. When I showed him the...
Ken-Rich Concrete Lifting and RepairThe 2 showers in my house had pretty severe cracks in the corner caulking. I called GroutPro and Brian came out to check out the situation. He told me that if money was a big concern that I could probably hire a handy man do redo the caulking for less but I went with his bid because I felt it...
I was so impressed! Called and got an appointment the same day, within 4 hours, and this was after I stated that this was NOT a plumbing emergency. We have a leak in upstairs master bath - at times water dribbles from a light fixture, AND have a stain on ceiling drywall. Gave full...

From demo to finish I work with the same energy to make the customer happy the same time I expect respect and communication
"Josef does excellent work - I would hire him again. He replaced a 15 foot railing in front of my home. He took extra care to match the color of the stain (including sending me pics from the hardware store to confirm). Scheduling took a more back and forth than expected but it was worth the wait."

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.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
