Aloha Pool ServicesI hired Mr. Coffield and his company to demolition my existing deck around my pool and pour new concrete in place and also add an extra 4 feet of concrete to the other side of my pool for extra room. The work that him and his crew did was above and beyond. Definitely A++ work and product. ...

I called Miller Pools at 8am in a panic about a recent pool replaster from another pool company. Mr. Miller was very responsive to my questions and actually came to take a look at my concerns. He arrived within the hour of my phone call! He took a look, explained what was going on and gave...
Absolutely impressed with Midlands Landscape. We were referred to Paul to assist us with new landscape, irrigation, sod and hardscape. Paul worked within our budget (which grew as the project went along) because we decided to continue with work. Even though we kept adding on items, Paul kept...
We were referred to Jason (Fasnacht Pools) by our landscaper and I could not be more pleased. We had an inground salt water pool installed (16x32). We did run into an issue with the layout due to our septic tank drain lines and Jason and Paul (landscaper) worked together to come to a...
Basically all they did was rip out the roof, put the new dry wall in and paint it and do the fan. It was like I had won a lottery- it came out beautiful; it was great! They were nice and good. It took a while for it to get approved and done. As a contractor, I wasn't impressed with him- he's...

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
Tipping a handyman is not a requirement or necessarily expected, as they should build a fair wage into the price of the job. However, some people will tip a handyman around $10 to $20 per hour or the equivalent of a day’s pay, depending on the size of the job. But it’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping a handyman service, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip, it’s encouraged and will likely be received with thanks.
There are several questions or things to know before hiring a handyman to do any work in your home.
What kind of work do they do?
Do they have proper licensing?
Do they charge for estimates?
Is the estimate for both labor and materials?
Do they provide references?
Do you provide a guarantee?
When can you start and finish the job?
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
