  3. 3

    Book and pay safely

    Pay through HelloPros when you book. The pro is paid once you confirm the job is done.

What to check before hiring

  • Public liability insurance
  • Whether the price is per hour with a minimum, or fixed for your list
  • Gas and most electrical work need a registered engineer: say if your list includes them

What we check: Every handyman has shown photo ID and public liability insurance of at least £1m.

Odd jobs: questions people ask

Can I give a list of jobs?

Yes, that is the best way. Write the list and add photos when you post and the pro quotes for the whole visit.

Is there a minimum charge?

Most handymen have a minimum of one or two hours, so it pays to group small jobs into one visit.

Can they do plumbing or electrics?

Simple like-for-like swaps, yes: a tap washer or a light fitting. Anything involving gas, new circuits or a consumer unit needs a registered plumber, heating engineer or electrician.

Do they bring materials?

Sealant, screws and fixings, yes. Specific items such as a new handle or toilet seat are better bought by you so you get the one you want.
