"Mr. Chapman sent two of his contractors to help me to build two tacks and organize and store all of my personal items on the shelves in part of the basement and garage.

Hi, my name is Terry. I have been in the industry for over 2 years. I am certified in HVAC/R. I am handy in many different areas such as appliance repair/installation, furniture assembly, Tv mounting, and more. I have always had a knack for fixing/building things and through the experience that I have gained as a maintenance tech, I have been able to learn a plethora of new skills and polish the ones I already have. I take great pride in my work because I love what I do. One of the best feelings is being able to provide a service for someone and seeing the gratitude on their faces after a job well done!

"Terry did a great job on tackling multiple maintenance and repair task in my rental property to prepare it for move-in. All work was completed in a timely manner with excellent quality (no rework or changes required). I will definitely employ Terry’s services again, and would highly recommend 3rd Life,"

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

It’s worth asking a handyperson a few questions before hiring to ensure they’re the right person for the job:

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have any references?

  • Will you provide a written estimate and contract?

  • How much do you expect materials to cost?

  • How long do you expect the project to take?

  • Do you have any questions about the projects on my list?

  • Do you provide a guarantee for the job?

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.

A big resounding yes, hiring a contractor is 100% worth it. They bring expertise, manage permits, coordinate professions in different trades, and help avoid costly mistakes. A pro can keep your project on budget and schedule while ensuring quality work that adds value to your home.

If a contractor is in breach of your contract, sometimes it is possible to collect damages for unreasonable delays. However, such claims can be expensive and difficult to prove. If there’s a way to complete the work and maybe negotiate for a discount for some of the inconvenience, that might be a simpler and cheaper way to resolve any disputes.

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’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.
