Checklist: Small Repairs
Finding a contractor or
handyman to fix small repairs can be a challenge. This
checklist provides some tips to make your search easier:
Walk through your home and list the small repairs needed.
(Dripping faucet, loose cabinet doors, faulty light
switch, etc.)
Get organized before you make the call. Keep a list of all
repairs needed near the phone so you can give the repair
person a good idea of the job size before they come to
your home.
Walk through your home and describe each of the repairs
with the handyman.
Decide on an hourly, or per job rate. Realize that most
firms front load the first hour.
Choose the handyman or contractor the same way you would
if having a larger project done.
Ask for references and examples of other jobs.
