Handyman Pricing Models
Handymen typically use one of these pricing approaches:
1. Hourly with Minimum
Charge hourly with a 2-4 hour minimum. This protects you from losing money on small jobs while being fair for larger projects.
2. Half-Day / Full-Day Rates
Offer half-day (4 hours) and full-day (8 hours) rates at a slight discount from hourly. Encourages customers to bundle jobs.
3. Service Call + Hourly
Charge a flat service call fee ($50-100) to show up, then hourly after that. The service call covers drive time and assessment.
4. Per-Job Pricing
Quote fixed prices for common jobs (hang TV, install ceiling fan, minor drywall repair). Faster than hourly billing and easier for customers to understand.
What to Include on a Handyman Invoice
Professional handyman invoices should document:
Business Information- Business name and DBA if applicable
- License number (if required in your area)
- Insurance information
- Contact details
- Service address
- Date(s) of service
- Detailed description of all work performed
- Rooms/areas serviced
- Any issues discovered during work
- Hourly rate or fixed price per job
- Time started and finished
- Minimum charge if applicable
- Multiple jobs handled in one visit
- Itemized list of materials used
- Receipts for customer-requested materials
- Markup percentage if disclosed
- Trip charges for material runs
- Disposal fees for hauling debris
- Parking fees if applicable
- After-hours or emergency premiums
How to Handle Materials and Markup
Handymen handle materials pricing in several ways:
1. Time & Materials
Bill actual material cost plus markup (typically 20-50%). Keep receipts to show customers if requested.
2. Included in Labor Rate
Build material costs into a higher hourly rate for small consumables (screws, caulk, touch-up paint, etc.).
3. Separate Material Charge
Customer purchases materials, you charge labor only. Risky because you cannot control quality or availability.
4. Material Run Fee
Charge separately for trips to the hardware store ($25-50 per trip) to account for your time.
Recommended Approach
For jobs over $500, get customer approval on material costs before purchasing. For smaller jobs, a blanket "materials and supplies" line with 30-40% markup is standard.
