"Sosa’s Property Service was fantastic! Josue and Tatiane answered our call well after typical business hours when we needed emergency cleaning services. They were here the next day to give us a quote (which was more than reasonable) and then came the next day to clean. Tatiane and her sister were incredibly thorough! The house has not been this clean in years!! I would absolutely hire Tatiane again."

"Livingston and his team addressed five projects within one day, all to perfection and with attention to detail that I had not even anticipated — and all within the cost of the estimate! Livingston communicated clearly, arrived with every bit of the tools and supplies necessary to complete all five jobs and worked as a team to address any problems that came up. Livingston and his team are all experienced, safety-conscious, and independently minded professionals, who additionally were unfailingly positive and courteous. This is perhaps the most amazing experience that this disabled veteran has had with a contractor. Livingston is an outstanding planner, communicator, and leader. I highly recommend anyone with home-related needs to turn to him first when entrusting your home repairs to someone in the field."

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

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?

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?

Yes, handymen can offer quick responses to urgent issues like leaks or electrical problems.

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). 

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.
