"David was prompt and very efficient in the manner he approached the job. I was very impressed at how organized he was. We hit a little snag when a part was missing and he suggested how I should approach the vendor to get it replaced and offered to come back at a later date to complete the work. His demeanor is very friendly and accommodating. Great person to work with."

"Great communication and attention to detail. Matt performed the work within the requested time frame and was respectful of my property. I definitely recommend him and will use him again. I gave the value for the money 4 stars because the charge seemed high, but it may not be - I did not get any other estimates, so I could be wrong about that. All home repairs seem high."

"I was apprehensive at first because the rating was 4.1 and from some of the comments I read. That apprehension went away the minute I met Tony and his wife Jennifer. They were professional, friendly, and I felt at ease with them. I needed them to put a heavy pool table and theater type sofa couch together for my basement, they did a fabulous job! They were respectful of my property, timely, offered helpful suggestions and worked with care; which I really appreciated because that is not how I was treated by my prior contractor - so it felt refreshing. I thought the price for the work was also fair. I have already showed Tony other work I need in the basement that I would hire him for. My experience was great! I recommend this business!"

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

A contractor specializes in a specific field. They often operate in teams where they have subcontractors to handle specialized problems. So if you have significant plumbing, drywall, or roofing issues, you’ll want to hire a contractor, as the job may require a team.

A handyperson is typically one person who works on whatever jobs come their way. You wouldn’t call a contractor to fix the hinges on cabinets or paint your room. Instead, a handyperson can handle all these issues, saving you from making multiple phone calls.

From drywall repair to fixture installations, pros address diverse home maintenance needs.

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 tackle hanging Christmas lights yourself with the right tools, accessories, and a trusted friend or neighbor. You’ll need to purchase a ladder ($100 to $300), clips ($10 to $20), hooks ($10 to $15), and lights ($25 to $100 per string).

Otherwise, you should hire a trusted holiday light installer near you. You’ll pay an average price of $200 to $650, but you’ll have peace of mind knowing that the job is done correctly and safely.

In most states, handypeople do not need to be licensed to perform simple home repair tasks and smaller jobs. When projects exceed specific cost amounts, however, ranging from $500 in California to $50,000 in other states, some municipalities consider them to be contractors, meaning they need to be licensed. To learn if your handyperson should be licensed to work on your job, contact your local governing body or state contractors’ licensing board before starting any work.
