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.

The hourly rate is based upon their experience level, overhead costs, and the cost of living in that specific area.

Professionals typically have over 10 years of experience, are background checked, bonded and insured. They arrive in clearly marked company vehicles, in uniform, and guarantee their workmanship. Credentials can be verified with google reviews and official websites. Rates for professionals often run between $120-$160 per hour. Many reputable companies will now offer fixed rate pricing based on the task or scope of work, no matter how long it takes to complete the work.</p></div>

He is the handyman that I deal with and he is very good. He seemed to know what he was doing and he did well. He did not waste any time but went right in and did it. Of all the handymen I have used I liked him and I would call him back.

Unfortunately, they were unable to accommodate my time frame to accomplish the work as inclement weather had pushed them behind schedule. I have had David out before to provide a quote for other services. I would consider them for services in the future.
