Frequently Asked Questions

Is a handyman cheaper than a contractor?

There are a few differences between a handyman and a contractor. A contractor will typically have an administration team to handle your project. Accordingly this can add 20-30% to the overall cost of a project. Often times a contractor will segment portions of your job to other small business operators. As such, there may be a different company for framing, another for drywall, a third company for flooring and so on. This may be the best option for time sensitive projects that include structural changes, projects involving electric lines or plumbing pipes, as each of these trades require a separate license from the state of Illinois. A contractor will take on projects that can last 2-3 months or even years. A Handyman typically can handle all trades and will take on projects that can last 2-3 days or weeks.

What are basic handyman skills?

Multi-tasking, problem solving, and project management. These are basic handyman skills essential for a successful project. When scoping a project, a handyman must first determine all of the trades involved. The second step is estimating the time required to perform all of the separate trades involved in a repair. Finally problem solving is essential. along the way when making a repair, you can often find deeper issues that require attention. Because of this, its important to find a handyman that not only has the requisite trade skills required – drywall repair, flooring, painting, carpentry, plumbing electrical and engineering – but also the basic handyman skills including organization and strategy.
