Brian P. says, "The most recent job Jim and team did for us was a redo of our old shed. Completely rebuilt the front end, including the door, which was custom to reproduce the unusual shape of the one that was there before. Put nice-looking hardware on it, too. The wood they used for that wall and the door was just the right amount of "rough" to go with the rest of the shed. They also cut away and replaced rotten wood along the bottoms on the other three sides. Inside, they reinforced along the spine of the roof to pull it back together where the whole structure had been settling. They topped off the project with a great paint job. Attaching before and after pictures." Read more

Your Handyman questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much does a handyman service charge?

Handyman hourly rates are $50 to $80 on average, plus the cost of materials. Most handyman work costs $150 to $600, depending on the job's size and if the handyman is self-employed or corporate. Handymen who purchase materials may have a 20% to 50% markup or a trip charge of $30 to $80.

What can a handyman legally do?

A handyman can legally do small jobs and repairs like painting a room, hanging a TV, unclogging a drain, patching a wall, replacing a ceiling fan, fixing a fence or gate, cleaning gutters, or replacing a toilet. Some states have limits on the amount handymen can legally charge before needing a license.

Can a handyman do plumbing or electrical work?

Only licensed handymen can do plumbing or electrical work. Although, a handyman may legally do small electrical and plumbing jobs in some states, like replacing a toilet. For larger projects, it's best to hire electricians or plumbers in your area.

How to find a local handyman in your area?

Start by searching our list of handyman services near you. After finding and contacting potential candidates:

  • Get at least three quotes to compare.
  • Read reviews and check out their previous work on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Select handyman contractors that are licensed, bonded, and experienced.
  • Discuss rates and payment methods upfront.
  • Avoid selecting the lowest quote as quality may suffer.
  • Ask for at least a 1-year labor warranty.
  • Get a full breakdown of all labor and material costs involved.
  • Ask about their warranties and guarantees.
  • Discuss job timelines, work hours, and expectations for larger projects.
  • Avoid making payments upfront. Instead, pay when the work is completed.

How do I hire a nearby handyman?

When looking to hire a local handyman, ask the following questions:

  • What type of work can you do?
  • What is your hourly rate?
  • Do you have a trip charge for getting materials?
  • How much do you mark up materials?
  • Can you provide a written estimate upfront?
  • Do you have local references or a portfolio of your work?
  • Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?
  • What hours do you work?
  • How long will the job take?
  • How do you handle additional work that arises?
  • Do you provide a guarantee?
  • How do you handle damages that happen on the job?
  • Do you work alone, or will you use subcontractors?
  • What’s your payment schedule?

After asking questions and comparing estimates, hire the best handyman in your area.

Does a handyman need a license?

Many states have a “Handyman Exemption” that only requires a license for jobs over $500 to $10,000 or more, varying by state. In other states, a license is mandatory for all work. Many states also require worker’s compensation and liability insurance to protect against damage or accidents.

Do you tip a handyman?

Handymen don't expect a tip. If the handyman goes above and beyond or spends more time than expected, a tip is appreciated. Most homeowners tip a handyman $10 to $20 or between 10% and 15% of the total job.

Man P.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Marble Floor Installation by Jimmy! Jimmy recently installed a marble kitchen floor in my home, and the results are absolutely stunning! From start to finish, his professionalism, attention to detail, and craftsmanship were outstanding. He took the time to understand my vision, offered expert advice, and executed the installation flawlessly. The precision and care he put into every tile are evident—the floor looks luxurious and seamless. Not only is Jimmy highly skilled, but he’s also reliable, punctual, and respectful of the workspace. He left the area spotless and went above and beyond to ensure I was thrilled with the final product. If you’re looking for top-tier tile or marble work, Jimmy is the best choice. I couldn’t be happier and highly recommend his services!

We used them to do major renovations on our large, old Victorian and incredibly glad we did. Our project was a 203k home purchase, which requires a lot of quote approvals from our bank. Our initial renovations included: FHA upgrades, lolly column replacement, new roof, paint of trim, foundation repairs and entire second floor (down to studs). Second floor needed new electrical, bathroom remodel and insulation (to name a few). As anyone who's done these massive projects on older homes knows, we encountered some unexpected problems. Any changes we made that impacted costs were explained, in writing, shown to and approved by us and bank before they moved forward. The project included much more than listed here, and all of it was beyond our expectations. We were so impressed with how the work was done, we kept them as "our repair guru". We were incredibly lucky to have found Bill from Advanced Mod. I don't know any other contractors who would have been as flexible and professional as they were with us as well as our bank!

They were so skilled and meticulous in every detail. The end result is absolutely stunning and has completely transformed my space. I couldnt be happier with their craftsmanship. Highly recommended!
