How to choose a handyman pro
A great handyman is worth their weight in drywall mud. We list generalists who own their work — they're licensed where required, insured everywhere, and they pick up the phone.
What we look for
- Insurance certificate available on request
- Clear scope before they start (hourly cap or flat-rate)
- Photos or before/after of similar past work
- Real human answering the phone (not a lead-gen call center)

Questions to ask before you hire
If a company won't answer these clearly, that's your answer.
- What's your minimum charge?
- Do you carry general liability insurance?
- Will you provide materials or should I?
