Brannan's Window & SidingI met first thing in the morning and Matthew gave me a quote on site. He returned later that day to complete the repairs. He was very responsive, professional and did a great job. I will use tabor creations again.
He was articulate, on time and had very good communication skills. The job was analyzed quickly and he had the parts needed for the repair. He made out and collected the bill while at the house. He was prompt to come out for the repair. Just a side note. Since moving to peoria from Chicago,...
Freedom Appliance RepairWork looked good but had to call him back twice. Once for a leak and once because some of the roof came loose. At the next leak I called someone else and paid them to repair it.
The owner of the company was the one who came to repair our furnace. He was above and beyond as far as professionalism goes. He was quick. When we placed the call, he was there within just a few minutes. It was an older furnace and he had a part for it back in his facility. There was no wait...

"We ordered a window from them the end of April. The beginning of June they came to put the window in. They had ordered the wrong size.

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.
There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs.
Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.
Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.
Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.
Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.
Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.
Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.
Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.
Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.
The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size.
Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.
There are several questions or things to know before hiring a handyman to do any work in your home.
What kind of work do they do?
Do they have proper licensing?
Do they charge for estimates?
Is the estimate for both labor and materials?
Do they provide references?
Do you provide a guarantee?
When can you start and finish the job?
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
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.
