Get handyman quotes

List what needs doing around the house and a local handyman can knock it all out in one visit.

What happens when you submit

We send this to several local companies. Expect each of them to get in touch.

Heads up, we don't have companies taking these jobs yet, so this may not find a match.

Step 1 of 4

What needs doing?

Pick everything on the list. A handyman would rather do six things in one visit than one.

What's on the list?
Roughly how much work is it, all together?

A rough guess is genuinely fine. Most handymen price by the half-day anyway.

What decides the price

Quotes for the same job can differ a lot, and it is usually scope rather than markup. These are the things that actually move the number.

  • Number of separate tasks, since one visit covering several is far cheaper than several visits
  • Whether anything needs a licensed trade instead, which some jobs legally do
  • Whether materials are supplied, or you buy them

Have this ready

The difference between a real quote and a callback asking for measurements.

  • A list of every job, not just the main one
  • Photos
  • Whether you already have the parts

Worth knowing

Anything touching a panel, a gas line or structure needs the licensed trade, not a handyman, however small it looks.

Before you sign anything

Get it in writing, check the license yourself rather than taking a number off a truck, and be wary of a price that expires today. North Carolina requires a general contractor license for most work over $30,000, and several trades are licensed by their own boards on top of that.
