Should you tip a handyman?

<div><p>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.</p></div>

<div><p>There are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-hiring-quality-handyman-service.htm">questions or things to know before hiring a handyman</a> to do any work in your home.</p><ul><li><p>What kind of work do they do?</p></li><li><p>Do they have proper licensing?</p></li><li><p>Do they charge for estimates?</p></li><li><p>Is the estimate for both labor and materials?</p></li><li><p>Do they provide references?</p></li><li><p>Do you provide a guarantee?</p></li><li><p>When can you start and finish the job?</p></li><li><p>Do you have any before and after photos of your work?</p></li><li><p>How long have you been doing this kind of work?</p></li><li><p>Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How much do handymen charge?

<div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-common-handyman-prices.htm">cost to hire a handyman</a> ranges from about <b>$40 to $140 per hour</b>. 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&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Should handymen be certified or licensed?

<div><p>Yes, you should hire a handyman who&rsquo;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&rsquo;re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to review the local handymen guidelines.</p></div>

They do good work. We never had a problem with them. They are handymen and they do all kinds of jobs everything from lawn care to plumbing to pretty much everything. Try to call them early because sometimes it is hard to get a hold of them.
