1.6k+ He did a great job, but he caulked the threshold with silicon caulk.. Never heard of that before, and had to clean the smeared caulk off the new floor. But I am grateful that he put the new casing on the door for me, which was not part of the job at no cost.
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 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...
The service turned out fine. There were no additional costs, and I provided the caulk for them to caulk.
Excellent. Mr. Plummer painted a large square footage 2br, 2ba condo unit in one day plus a few hours. He also beautifully re-caulked the shower, bath and kitchen areas. Prompt, professional and very neat. I highly recommend Dunn Rite Construction and Mr. Plummer's services.
During heavy downpours we were getting water in the house and coming into the basement through the top of the foundation. Arthur came out the day after I called him, and recommended sealing our brick facade as well as caulking around the windows. He provided an estimate a few days later. ...

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

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.
