Here are Al’s basic rates – rate structures can vary based on a number of factors, so please feel free to inquire about any specifics or special requests. Consultations, by phone or in person, are always free and no-obligation.
Smaller Handyman Jobs:
A service call for your basic odd-and-odder-job-list starts at $180. That basic price includes the first three hours on-site as well as a reasonable supply of necessary standard fasteners, patching materials, minor parts etc. (I don’t like nickel & diming and nasty surprises either!) Subsequent additional time is billed as actual time spent based on $60/hour, and again includes the standard minor incidental materials. There is no charge for off-site local travel time – charges are only for time spent getting things done for you.
More significant required parts, accessories, materials, major appliances etc. (over and above the included standard fasteners, patching materials, minor parts, etc.) are extra, at cost.
Quite a few tasks can be accomplished during a basic 3 hour service call, so make sure to have your ‘to-do list’ handy and we’ll see how much of it we can knock off in that time frame. Wondering how long your job will take? Please feel free to contact me and I’ll be happy to let you know.
If you are one of those few lucky people that doesn’t have a to-do list long enough to warrant a basic service call, don’t be afraid to contact me still – I will make exceptions to the minimum service call rate if I can schedule you at a time that I will be in your neighbourhood anyway. We are always happy to try to make things work for you.
Larger Projects:
Please email or call to discuss your larger projects including remodelling, renovations and larger repairs. It may be possible to provide a quote by email or over the phone, but generally it’s usually best to schedule a no-cost, no-obligation meeting to discuss the project, the costs, timelines, etc.
Seniors Discount:
I offer local seniors a discount of 15% off base handyman rates.
Regardless of the size of the Job…
Al’s intention is always to provide excellent value for your money through applying the most efficient, appropriate, effective & innovative solutions to your project’s challenges.
Any questions, please don’t hesitate to inquire. Inquiries are always free and you may be pleasantly surprised!
