"I own a 130yr old house and the front door was falling apart but I couldn't bear to have to remove the old character and trim to replace with new. Rodney came in and said he could rebuild it. And boy did he! It's rock solid again and weather tight. He was so nice and very professional."

"Simply. Awful. There really isn't a grade low enough for a guy like this! DO NOT WASTE ANY OF YOUR TIME! In 2014 I called Dave to get a quote on painting my whole house, adding wainscoting, crown molding, and a backsplash in my kitchen. Dave came to our house and spent 1.5 discussing various options and ideas. I was elated! I thought highly of his advice and was eager to receive a quote. Except the quote never came. I followed-up with him -- and he ignored my follow-ups. I was highly disappointed in the TOTAL LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM! Fast forward to 2018. I am soliciting bids to have a basement bar installed. After 4 years had passed I forgot about Dave Beck, and mistakenly called him again. He agreed to come to my house at noon on a Saturday. He was a no-show. We called him and he agreed to come over at 1:15pm. When I opened the door and recognized who it was I almost fell over at my misfortune! However, I gave him a second chance and didn't kick him out. The same thing happened AGAIN! He wasted 1 hour of my time throwing out all kinds of great ideas and agreed to deliver a quote - AND NEVER DID! I am beyond ANGRY that such a lousy, unreliable person like this wasted 2.5 hours of my life. NEVER EVER EVER CALL HIM!!!!!!! YOU WILL ONLY REGRET IT"

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.
Handymen/contractors will charge anywhere from $50 to $175 per hour. The hourly rate is based upon their experience level, overhead costs, and the cost of living in that specific area. Many handymen/contractors will charge by the job.
Tipping a handyman is not a requirement or necessarily expected, as they should build a fair wage into the price of the job. However, some people will tip a handyman around $10 to $20 per hour or the equivalent of a day’s pay, depending on the size of the job. But it’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping a handyman service, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip, it’s encouraged and will likely be received with thanks.
A tip is not necessary. If you feel that a handyman did a great job for you, the best thing you can do for them is boost their reputation by leaving reviews on as many sites as possible and spreading by word of mouth how good they are. A tip is temporary but a reputation creates a business!
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?
Is your company bonded and insured?
What is your warranty on service and materials?
Do you provide phone and/or on-site estimates?
Do you accept credit cards as form of payment?
Does your company offer financing for bigger projects?
Do you offer discounts for senior citizens/military (if applicable)?
Where can I see client reviews and samples of work?
Do you have any certifications or awards?
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.
Being certified and/or licensed typically provides the customer with a level of comfort when hiring a handyman, but is not always a guarantee of quality work. Ask the handyman to explain what his or her process to complete your project is, and if you hire this person, check on the work, ask questions, make suggestions. After all, it's your project, your money, and you deserve quality work.
