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.

Cleaning a gutter, replacing fixtures such as a cabinet or light, and painting are common reasons to call a handyperson. You can also call on a handyperson for simple tasks, like assembling new furniture, and complex ones, such as installing a dishwasher. Overall, handypeople are ideal in all areas of home repair that do not require a specific certification, such as with plumbing, electrical, or structural issues.

It’s worth asking a handyperson a few questions before hiring to ensure they’re the right person for the job:

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • Do you have any references?

  • Will you provide a written estimate and contract?

  • How much do you expect materials to cost?

  • How long do you expect the project to take?

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

  • Do you provide a guarantee for the job?

The biggest benefit of hiring a handyperson over DIY is guaranteeing they’ll do the project correctly. This might save money in the long run and prevent future issues from arising. Hiring a handyperson also saves you the hassle of doing the job yourself. Finally, some projects pose safety risks, so hiring an experienced pro is much safer. 

While a handyperson will do the odd small job for your home, a maintenance person is responsible for conducting regular inspections and repairs. Maintenance people may come in to do small fixes and diagnose any issues you might be facing, but may not have all the same technical abilities as a handyperson.
