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’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’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: Do services include blade sharpening?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.</p></div>

Q: How do you end a relationship with a contractor?

• <div><p>Reviewing your contract for termination terms is best when ending a relationship with a contractor. If there is nothing in the contract or you had a verbal agreement, communicate your decision in writing, citing specific reasons. Afterward, pay for the completed work per your original agreement. Remember you want a record of all correspondence in case you need a lawyer later to settle disputes.</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: Is it better to pay a contractor with a credit card or check?

• <div><p>Many contractors prefer checks because they&rsquo;re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).</p></div>

Service department--never trusted anything they said was wrong with my car, had problems in the past, but went there again due to time constraints and health problems and I was treated like I'm stupid from the moment I asked the first question. Left in car after telling them I'd take it...

"The guy was nice enough, but the work was scheduled for Friday, June 13 at 8 am; he didn?t show up until 9 am. He stopped working around 3 pm and said he would come back at 9 am on Saturday; he didn?t arrive until about noon. A storm came up at 2 pm, stopping his work. He waited for a while then said he would come back on Monday. He also left materials and tools on my lawn, which I had to move on Sunday so that I could cut the lawn. Finally, the completed job was done haphazardly; the tops of the pickets are not straight, unlike the original fence. See the attached photo?the section with new pickets (far left) is straight, but the one next to it with old pickets is not; the section on the middle right is not straight, and the section with the new and old pickets (far right) is straight. I had specifically asked him to straighten the tops, and he never did."
