"The handyman came to fix a bathroom that wasn't closing anymore probably due to house settling. Door was fixed but I forgot to check the lock at the time and the repair man didnt check it either. The lock didn't fit into the stike plate. I called to have him come back and fix it and offered to pay the minimum price again. They smade two appointments and didn't show up for either. They are a poor representation of what I would expect from Angie. Never again."

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

In Rockford, the City of Rockford Building Department requires permits for projects such as structural changes, roofing, electrical upgrades, plumbing alterations, and any work impacting fire-rated walls or additions over 120 square feet. Minor repairs like painting or fixture replacement typically don't need permits. Always display your permit before starting work, and schedule inspections at least 24 hours in advance, as required by local regulations.

Helpful?

In Rockford, DIY handyman projects can save money and offer flexibility, but risk code violations or safety hazards if unfamiliar with local building codes. Hiring a licensed handyman, as recommended by the City of Rockford Building Department, ensures proper permits, insurance, and expertise for complex or multi-trade repairs. However, professional services may be costlier and require scheduling in advance, so consider your project's complexity and your own skill level.

Helpful?

For handyman projects in Rockford, choose materials rated for Midwest weather—moisture-resistant lumber, exterior-grade fasteners, and high-quality insulation are essential. The Rockford Department of Community & Economic Development recommends sourcing supplies locally to ensure compliance with building codes. For seasonal tasks, invest in durable caulking, gutter guards, and weatherproof sealants to withstand Illinois' freeze-thaw cycles and protect your property year-round.

Helpful?

After handyman work in Rockford, schedule regular maintenance to prevent costly repairs. The Illinois Department of Public Health suggests seasonal checks, such as cleaning gutters in fall, inspecting roofs after winter storms, and servicing HVAC systems in spring and fall. Addressing minor issues early—like sealing exterior gaps or testing sump pumps—helps maintain property value and ensures your home meets local safety standards.

Helpful?

In Rockford, common mistakes include skipping required permits, using materials not suited for local weather, and neglecting to follow city building codes. The City of Rockford Building Department often sees issues from improper electrical or plumbing work. To avoid costly corrections, always verify permit needs, select code-compliant materials, and consult local authorities before starting any significant home repair or maintenance project.
