I’m a proud mom of three who has always loved to build, fix, and create. My business was born from a passion for problem-solving and a drive to help my neighbors keep their homes in top shape. As a self-proclaimed perfectionist, I don't just "get the job done"—I ensure every detail is right before I leave. Whether it’s a quick repair or a creative project, I bring a keen eye and a helpful spirit to every home I enter.\n

"I had a tricky situation in my basement, which involves dry wall, electricity and water. I didn't even know what type of contractors I need to get due to the complexity, so I decided to try handyman service, because I need some people who are truly versatile. Corey and William responded to my request within minutes, came to my house for estimation within an hour, and gave me the estimate within hours. They came up with a solution that is both practical and aesthetic, with very reasonable price. They came to do the job a few days later at a day and time of my choice, and completed the job in a very neat and efficient way. Their versatility solved a big problem for me in such a short time. I'm very happy with their work and will definitely hire them again in the future for any handyman service. I highly recommend them."

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

Prioritize tasks and arrange a consultation to discuss scope and timeline with the handyman.

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.

Many contractors prefer checks because they’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).

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.

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?
