Q: What’s the difference between a handyperson and a contractor?

• <div><p>A contractor specializes in a specific field. They often operate in teams where they have subcontractors to handle specialized problems. So if you have significant plumbing, drywall, or roofing issues, you&rsquo;ll want to hire a contractor, as the job may require a team.</p><p>A handyperson is typically one person who works on whatever jobs come their way. You wouldn&rsquo;t call a contractor to fix the hinges on cabinets or paint your room. Instead, a handyperson can handle all these issues, saving you from making multiple phone calls.</p></div>

Q: Why should I hire a professional handyman for small projects?

• <div><p>Pros save time and ensure quality by handling complex tasks and repairs efficiently.</p></div>

Q: Do contractors charge for meetings?

• <div><p>Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what&rsquo;s included in the process.</p></div>

Q: What are two advantages of hiring the handyman as a contractor?

• <div><p>There are a few advantages to hiring a handyperson as a contractor, namely that they will likely charge less for their services since they don&rsquo;t have as much overhead. A handyperson might also have more flexibility and be more involved in your specific home project, so you can communicate with one person instead of a subcontractor team.</p><p></p></div>

Q: Which contractors should you tip?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s not necessary to tip a contractor, as it&rsquo;s not customary or expected from most home improvement, renovation, or construction professionals. However, if a worker goes above and beyond, stays late to meet a deadline, works on a holiday weekend, or gives you exceptional service, you might choose to tip them.</p></div>
