"The owner is Gary Bordelon and he is fabulous.  All my friends have used him; everything just starts raving to this man.  He is honest and punctual.  He does perfect work and his prices are reasonable.  He never lacks for works.  He has two phone numbers and answers almost 24/7 then he comes out and does the job.  He does everything; commercial, residential, handyman, home remodeling, home repairs and general renovation.  He has worked for me numerable times and he is absolutely fabulous.  He goes everywhere so he serviced anybody in this area.  His card says "No job too small" and that's how I found him; I had a tiny job and he ended up residing my house.  Through the years I've used him and he was highly recommended to me by a friend of mine.  Then I used him and I highly recommended him to several friends of mine.  I've never heard a bad word about him; everybody calls me and says he is fabulous.  He is terrific.  The most wonderful thing about him is he is honest. I like the quality of his work, dependability, honesty and promptness.  He makes people go insane with pleasure.  He is always busy so I have to wait for awhile but it is worth it.

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

While handypeople do not need to be licensed in many places, you should only hire insured pros for any home improvement work. Your handyperson should have active liability coverage that protects them and you in the case of an error or accident. Furthermore, if they have employees on your property, they should also have workers’ compensation insurance. If you hire an individual or a company that is not insured and they damage your property, have an accident while on the job, or become injured on your property without insurance, you can be held financially liable.

In most states, handypeople do not need to be licensed to perform simple home repair tasks and smaller jobs. When projects exceed specific cost amounts, however, ranging from $500 in California to $50,000 in other states, some municipalities consider them to be contractors, meaning they need to be licensed. To learn if your handyperson should be licensed to work on your job, contact your local governing body or state contractors’ licensing board before starting any work.

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

Most professional appliance removal companies will not expect a tip, but offering one is a good way to show appreciation for a job well done. A tip of 10% to 20% is a good idea if your professionals are working in the rain or snow, if they take extra care not to damage your walls and furniture in the removal process, or if they need to maneuver the appliance through tight spaces or up or down stairs to get it out of your home.

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.
