Frequently Asked Questions

How do you price your handyman work?

HandyMike prices most projects based on the time required, the materials needed, and the overall scope of the work. Smaller tasks may fall under a half-day or full-day rate, while larger repairs, multi-room projects, or specialty work are estimated individually.

Before work begins, we provide a clear estimate so you know what to expect.

Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?

Yes. HandyMike is licensed, insured, and bonded. This helps protect both our customers and our team, and gives you confidence that your project is being handled by a professional company.

Do I need to supply my own materials?

You are welcome to supply materials, but we often recommend allowing HandyMike to source them. This helps ensure the correct size, type, and quality are purchased for the job.

If homeowner-supplied materials are incorrect or incompatible, additional time or trips may affect the final cost.

How soon can you schedule my project?

Scheduling depends on the type of work and our current calendar. Smaller maintenance tasks can often be scheduled sooner, while larger repairs or multi-day jobs may require more lead time.

We do our best to accommodate urgent needs whenever possible.

What if the job turns out to be bigger than expected?

Some projects reveal hidden issues once work begins, especially in older homes. If the scope changes, we will stop, explain what we found, review your options, and provide updated pricing before moving forward.

We do not proceed with unexpected additional work without your approval.

Do you warranty your work?

Yes. New installations include a one-year workmanship warranty. Repairs and maintenance work include a ninety-day workmanship warranty.

Product warranties are provided by the manufacturer. HandyMike’s warranty covers the labor and workmanship performed by our team.

Will I need to be home during the work?

Not always. Many customers provide access through a door code, lockbox, or other approved arrangement. For interior work, we recommend being available at the beginning to review the project and at the end for a walkthrough.

What types of projects does HandyMike handle?

HandyMike handles a wide range of home repair, maintenance, carpentry, painting, drywall, installation, and improvement projects. If you are unsure whether your project is a good fit, please contact us and we’ll be happy to review it.
