What to include in a handyman job post

  • A numbered list of each small task, so it can be priced as one visit.
  • A photo of each item and where it goes (wall type if known: plasterboard, brick).
  • Whether you've bought the parts or fixings, or want the handyman to supply them.
  • Any time window when someone will be home.

Comparing quotes

  • Is it priced by the hour, half-day or as a fixed price for the list?
  • Is there a minimum charge or call-out fee, and does travel count?
  • Are fixings and parts included or charged on top?
  • Gas, and electrical work beyond simple like-for-like swaps, need suitably qualified trades. Ask, rather than assume, a handyman can do them.
