This method is where you hire us to complete a project, with a defined scope of work, for a pre-agreed price.

The first step in our process, is to schedule an on site consultation. We'll provide you with a written, no obligation estimate.

Note that for some small projects- we may be able to estimate a price for you over the phone, and you won't even need to have us out for a site estimate.

Hiring contractors by project is best suited for well-scoped, and clearly defined projects. The more clearly defined your project scope- the more accurately we can provide a fixed price to complete it.

See our By-The-Hour page, for situations that may be best suited to hiring us by the hour.

Getting multiple bids?

A clearly defined project scope is particularly important. If you are comparing quotes from multiple contractors- be sure that you know what it is you are comparing. For example, if you don't specify the types of materials- then a contractor may prepare their quote assuming use of the cheapest (and potentially sub-par quality) materials available. If you don't clearly define the workscope- then a contractor may leave out certain tasks from their quote (like hauling away demolition debris, for example), and hit you with expensive change orders once the project is underway.

Here at Your Handyman, we use high quality materials, and industry-accepted best practices, for all our projects. We back our workmanship with a 1 year warranty.
