352 I hired John to give my house a smoke alarm makeover. He nailed it. He arrived on time, was friendly, and got to work. He kept me informed throughout the day, surfaced decisions to me when needed, and accommodated my preferences. He installed 3 new smoke alarms, a couple new smoke/CO alarms,...
Kiehl ElectricIncredible. They were so responsive and came same day, even earlier than they originally thought. Installer was superb. Would hire them with no reservations!
Northstar Electric LLCRick was great to deal with, very helpful throughout the process, and communicated promptly. The person who did the install was very friendly and helpful, as well. It turned out that our old opener was hard-wired (not to code), but we came up with a workaround so that the install could be...
We just moved into our new home a few weeks ago and have been figuring out all the nuances. The house was build in the 1940's and had to have some electrical work done prior to closing. After moving in we discovered the doorbells weren't working and a few of the lights we couldn't turn on. We...
I called to make an appointment with the company a couple of weeks prior to the appointment. Since I didn't want to make an 8:00 a.m. appointment, I was given a window of between 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. The technician arrived at approximately 9:20 a.m. I had purchased what I thought were...
Robert was very polite and happy to ensure I was pleased with the service provided. He was very professional in presenting the solar product options. The install went well. It has now been over three years since installation and I have yet to encounter issues with the solar tubes. I...
Salesman was pleasant, helpful and sent excellent explanatory materials. I live in another part of the country and have not yet seen the doors and opener, so cannot comment firsthand on quality. Occupants of the home have been satisfied with the new doors and opener. Despite phoning,...

"I had an old, massive chimney built years ago with the wrong brick, it was crumbling off my house. Most chimney repair contractors were quoting me upwards of 30, 40, 50k. Justin worked with me to find a solution which would cost me less than half of that and still ensure the longevity and safety of my chimney/house. It took a while to get done, we had to wait for the right weather but the outcome was fantastic and working with Justin was an easy, smooth and enjoyable process."

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.
It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
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.
