HomeStars Article : How much does it cost to hire a Handyman?

Rate as of May 1, 2019:

Block Rates: (minimum charge) 1/4day (2hrs.) – $190  | 1/2 day (4hrs.) – $340
Time in excess of block rate – $75/hour
Materials: DURING JOB: cost + travel time to & from supplier, SUPPLIED: cost + 25%
Payment: upon completion of work – Cash, Credit, or Interac e-Transfer

Travel Premium: First 100km FREE – 0.59/km after.  Sorry – service not offered in Toronto

Material : a minimum material charge of $15 is applied to all invoices.

The cost to maintain a stock of the necessary items to complete your job is increasing every day. Whether you see any of these items used on your job-or not, they must be averaged over all service calls, with additional invoiced for job-specific materials, like items from my inventory of plumbing and electrical spares.

A “short” list of the materials carried for every job includes:

adhesives, anchors, toggle bolts, glues, masking tape, screws, nails, dowels, drywall, drywall compound, drywall tape, sandpaper, mending plates, romex wire, wire connectors, electrical tape, flux, solder, ABS cement, picture hardware, batteries, cutting blades, caulking, cleaners, acetone, paper towel, rags, velcro, etc., etc., etc.,

Commercial: renovation or building contractor, deposit for all materials + 50% labor prior to booking.
