"Very good went over and above also installed a new ridged vent for the dryer. Planning to do a few more things for me. Clean very easy to talk too and understand what needs to be done. I would recommend ROBERT BROWNELL as a handyman even remodeling."

"I hired John to work on my deck. He came and measured, sanded, and stained it in a timely manner. He even went and got all the supplies and brought different paint samples to choose from. The deck looks fantastic. He did such a good job that I hired him 2 more times. Once to fix the fan in my daughter’s bathroom and an electrical circuit that kept going out. He fixed both issues perfectly!! I would highly recommend John for any job you have at your home!!"

"Fernando and his son did an absolutely top notch, excellent, job remodeling our master bath. Not only was the work done professionally and perfectly but also showed up on time, cleaned up daily and produced a very luxury and excellent remodel and in record time! I have worked with many contractors and never give a top rating unless absolutely warranted and I would give F.Z. Tile the best there is. There is not one thing I can even say to do better. Kudos Fernando and Chris!!!! We would highly recommend them!"

Handyman Services questions, 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.

To install or move washer and dryer hookups, you will likely need a combination of professionals. A plumber can handle the water supply lines and drain pipes. If you have a gas dryer, a plumber certified for gas lines or an HVAC specialist will be needed to run the gas line. An electrician is required to install the correct electrical outlets. For simpler jobs, a local handyperson may suffice, while a contractor might be needed for tasks like drywall repair for the new vents.

The cost to hire a handyman can vary, with most charging on a per-hour or per-project basis. On average, expect to pay between $50 and $150 per hour, with a typical rate around $90 per hour. For project-based work, the average cost is about $400, though the total can range from as low as $180 to $1,500 or more. Some handypeople may also require a minimum flat rate, such as payment for two hours of work.

Several factors influence the final cost, including:

  • The type, size, difficulty, and complexity of the job

  • The amount of time the work takes

  • The handyman's experience level

  • Your geographic location

  • The cost of materials and any necessary permits

  • Accessibility of the work area and potential travel costs

Additionally, you may encounter higher rates or extra fees for emergency services or work scheduled during holidays.

Yes, handymen can offer quick responses to urgent issues like leaks or electrical problems.

Before hiring a handyperson, it's important to ask several questions to ensure they are the right fit for the job. Key areas to cover include their experience, logistics, and job specifics.

Experience and Qualifications:

  • What kind of work do you specialize in?

  • How long have you been doing this kind of work?

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have references?

  • Can you provide before-and-after photos of your work?

Estimates and Contracts:

  • Do you charge for estimates?

  • Will you provide a written estimate and contract?

  • Does the estimate cover both labor and materials?

  • How much do you expect materials to cost?

Project Details and Guarantees:

  • When can you start the job, and how long do you expect it to take?

  • Do you provide a guarantee for your work?

  • Will you handle cleanup and waste disposal after the job is finished?

  • Do you have any questions about the projects on my list?
