Handyman Questions and Answers

What kinds of jobs does a handyman do?

Handymen handle small repairs and installations such as patching drywall, assembling furniture, mounting TVs and shelves, adjusting doors and cabinets, replacing hardware, caulking and minor carpentry. Many customers book a handyman to work through a list of tasks in one visit.

When should I hire a specialist instead of a handyman?

Choose a specialist for work that involves new electrical circuits, gas lines, major plumbing, structural changes or roofing, or anything that requires a permit or trade license where you live. A good handyman will tell you when a job is outside their scope.

How do I choose a handyman?

Share your full task list up front and ask which items the handyman regularly does. Ask how they price the work, whether they bring materials, and whether they carry insurance. Reviews that mention similar jobs are a helpful guide.

How do handyman services usually charge?

Some handymen charge by the hour, some by the job, and many have a minimum charge for a visit. The total depends on the number of tasks, the time each takes, materials, and travel. Grouping tasks into one visit can make better use of a minimum.

How should I prepare for a handyman visit?

Write down every task with photos or measurements if helpful, and decide whether you or the handyman will buy materials. Clear the work areas, have hardware or mounting kits on hand, and point out anything fragile nearby.
