How to hire a handyman in Cambridge

1

Ask whether they charge by the hour, by the job or a half-day minimum.

2

Send photos of each task ahead so they come with the right parts.

3

Confirm they are insured; small jobs still involve ladders and power tools.

4

Know the line: plumbing, electrical and structural work usually need a licensed trade.
