Top 10 Handyman Services in Draper, UT
Top questions to ask before hiring a handyman
Handymen are hired to do many various home improvement tasks. Some are general tradesmen, who have a variety of experiences. Others have licenses and training in electrical work or plumbing. The key is asking what their level of experience is for the type of work you need done. Before you call a handyman, know what you need done along with any important details. You'll want an in-home consultation so that you can walk through the project.
Handyman licensing varies from state to state however it's a good question to ask your handyman. You'll also want to verify the dollar amounts for their surety bond (a third party that can cover payments in case the handyman doesn't pay subcontractors or employees) as well as insurance (in case they damage your property or injure themselves).
After the handyman has had a chance to walk through the project, have him or her outline the scope of work. The details of the project, including labor, materials, supplies, rental equipment, or subcontractors, should be listed as separate line items. If you are on a tight budget or timeline, this is the time to discuss options or alternatives for your project. If the project is small, like hauling debris or performing minor repair work, the handyman should request payment when the job is complete. For larger projects that require ordering of materials or multiple subcontractors, it's more common to pay a deposit.
Obtaining proper permits for home improvement is the responsibility of the homeowner. But very often professional file the permits on behalf of the homeowner and should have a good understanding of the process. When the structure of the home is altered, or when changes are made to the electrical system or gas lines, you may need to file a permit. Discuss your particular project with your handyman and ask if a permit is required.
A good handyman should be happy to share references. Anywhere from three to five past clients should be able to give you a good idea about the handyman's work style, ability to get the job done, and the satisfaction when the job is complete. If a homeowner wasn't satisfied with the handyman, be sure you ask specifically why. Sometimes miscommunication can contribute to unsatisfied customers.

I called John on a Saturday afternoon. Monday was a holiday, so he showed up at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday. He was very pleasant, professional, and did an awesome job! I would definitely recommend him and use him again when I am in need of a handyman.
Very competitive prices, good quality workmanship. Very customer oriented. Works with customers schedules as much as possible. I would use them again without hesitation and recommend them quite highly.
Damon was the most honest person I've ever worked with. Not only did he give me a good deal on my project he walked me through every step. I will definitely keep working with Damon.
Unfortunately, the Deck is not holding up well. Within the first few months the posts that hold the railings became very loose. The post for the stair railing is also very loose. That one feels like it could snap off with little effort. The pine they used...
Washington did an excellent job building our shed. He came when he said he would, he finished when he said he would, it is well built and looks nice!
16x8 vinyl siding and shingle roof to match the house. Everything turned out great and in the promised 3 days. Good crew that showed up on time everyday. Would recommend and hire again for other projects.
Great work at a reasonable price! Really happy with the work they did, and a year later the shed is still in perfect condition. Highly recommended!
Excellent! Took care of everything on our list!
