"Jimenez Service responded to my Angi request within an hour. I explained the work to the office administrator. They had availability to do my work the same afternoon. The handyman was very polite, asked good questions, was up front with costs, and performed the work I requested within the same afternoon. He even fixed the hot tub motor, which I had not been sure could be repaired. The charge was as quoted, I payed on the spot, and can now move on with other things. I couldn’t be happier with this crew."

"We were able to schedule same day appointment, Will was on time and prepared. The price quoted was fair and comparably to other estimates. He did a great job with assembly, clean up and we were able to use immediately. I highly recommend Absolute Finishings for any handyman projects."

"I had an amazing experience and highly recommend him! I needed very large, heavy blackout curtains installed across a wide area of my loft, and the wall made the installation especially challenging. He did an incredible job making sure everything was installed securely, properly, and looked great. He also installed my electronic curtain openers and got everything set up perfectly. I can now open and close the curtains using Siri and Apple Home, which has been a huge upgrade. The blackout curtains are already making a noticeable difference in keeping my loft much cooler during the day. Beyond the quality of the work, he was extremely personable, professional, and easy to work with. His pricing was also very reasonable, especially considering the difficulty of the installation. I will absolutely be using him again for other handyman projects around my home. Excellent work, great service, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!"

Handyman Services FAQs, answered by experts

Rates vary by task complexity and time, often providing cost-effective solutions for homeowners.

To install or move washer and dryer hookups, you will likely need a combination of professionals. A plumber can handle the water supply lines and drain pipes. If you have a gas dryer, a plumber certified for gas lines or an HVAC specialist will be needed to run the gas line. An electrician is required to install the correct electrical outlets. For simpler jobs, a local handyperson may suffice, while a contractor might be needed for tasks like drywall repair for the new vents.

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.

Discuss design preferences and material choices before work begins for cohesive results.

Hiring a handyperson offers several benefits. They can save you time and hassle by completing tasks you may not have the time or experience to do yourself. A key advantage is ensuring the project is done correctly, which can prevent future issues and save money in the long run. For projects that pose safety risks, hiring an experienced professional is a much safer option. Additionally, handypeople are often more available for smaller jobs that larger contractors may not have the schedule for.
