Janice M. says, "I recently had the pleasure of working with Brandon for the installation of my new pool, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the start, Brandon showcased his extensive knowledge and expertise in pool installation. He carefully excavated the land to ensure the pool was perfectly aligned with the height of my deck, which not only looks fantastic but also enhances functionality. The installation process was incredibly professional; the liner was fitted flawlessly with no wrinkles or leaks. It’s evident that Brandon takes great pride in his work, and his attention to detail is commendable. I was particularly impressed by how he communicated throughout the project, keeping me informed and addressing any questions I had. As if that wasn’t enough, Brandon is also coming back to assist with my landscaping, which I’m really looking forward to. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone considering a pool installation. If you want a seamless experience and a stunning end result, look no further than Brandon! Five stars all the way!"

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.

I have used this carpet cleaning company 3 times in the last couple years, and can say I'm happy with the service provided! I called and scheduled an appointment in advance. The cleaning was quick and got all the stains out. The best part is they instantly dried the carpets and area rugs right after washing them. What I particularly like about the service is they use a truck mounted service which tends to be more powerful than just a regular machine. Will definitely continue to use their services and recommend.
