"Mr. Handyman returned my request for a quote within a few hours, and then had someone at my home in the next 15 minutes. Jose was extremely efficient, professional, and friendly, and had the job done within about 20 minutes. He even spackled over the holes in the wall where I had tried and failed to do the job myself earlier."

"Home Advisor rating system has a limitation on how to choose the projects, so let me recap here in detail. I found John Betz & Son (Silver Spring MD) through Home Advisor. After several calls to other recommendations, John (himself) was the only one to answer his phone, pull over (he was driving), talk me through all the handyman work I thought I needed (the list grew!), get my information, and set up an appt (all on the side of the road). For our initial walk-thru, he showed up not on time, but Early! He confirmed the type of work I needed, from my other experience with a previous walk-thru. We set up a date/time for the first priority job because it had a deadline -- he showed up early for that appt, and he and son did an excellent job fixing rotting exterior front door wood, and painting (and painted more than was requested too, to make it look seamless!). The other jobs were not an emergency, so we set up 2 days the following week. He again showed up early with his son on BOTH days. They worked all day, both days, on the following: caulking exterior windows, pediments, garage door (and checking exterior for any leaking); re-hanging & securing a shutter; replacing an exterior keypad for my garage door opener and setting up the coding system; replacing/repairing drywall in the garage; fixing kitchen sink (repaired garbage disposal and replaced piping/drainage repair for other sink); replaced a ceramic tile in dining room (and matched grout so perfectly I couldn't tell which tile had been replaced afterwards!); drilled and installed new locks on a living room window; MADE and installed 2 screens for living room windows; repaired threshold wood strip in basement that runs between carpet and tile floor; AND THEN, he checked a vent return that makes periodic noise, and checked behind insulation to be sure no mold/damage was present -- those were no charge :-). John gives a full electronic estimate for his work before it begins, accepts major credit cards (if really necessary), and sends an electronic receipt. During this time, I was able to talk with John and get all my handyman fears put to rest, as he is an expert, and can do work from top to bottom of your house (not just handyman work). I highly recommend John Betz & Son -- my experience was 5-star!!"

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

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

Before hiring a handyperson, it's important to ask several questions to ensure they are the right fit for the job. Key areas to cover include their experience, logistics, and job specifics.

Experience and Qualifications:

  • What kind of work do you specialize in?

  • How long have you been doing this kind of work?

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have references?

  • Can you provide before-and-after photos of your work?

Estimates and Contracts:

  • Do you charge for estimates?

  • Will you provide a written estimate and contract?

  • Does the estimate cover both labor and materials?

  • How much do you expect materials to cost?

Project Details and Guarantees:

  • When can you start the job, and how long do you expect it to take?

  • Do you provide a guarantee for your work?

  • Will you handle cleanup and waste disposal after the job is finished?

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

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

You can find a reliable handyperson by looking at professionals in your area and ruling out companies with poor reviews online. Next, check each handyperson on the Better Business Bureau to see if they have a history of complaints and rule out those that do. Finally, you can contact each handyperson to ask the following qualifying questions:

  • What is your hourly rate?

  • Are there any jobs you can’t tackle?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Do you have references I can contact?

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
