FAQ

1. Are your handyman estimates free?
  • I do free estimates on the telephone. When you call/text we will discuss jobs on your list and I will give you an estimate of how long I think it will take but free estimates are just an estimate. 
  • I can not justify the time to come and look at the work you want done if it is only a few hours work. If you want my advice on a project there will be a RM50 consulting fee. 
  • The cheapest way to hire a handyman is to pay time plus materials. I come and do the work you want done and you pay for the time it takes. If you want to add jobs to the list while I am there that is not a problem. 
  • A fixed price quotes will be more expensive because I have to come and look at the job to see what all is involved estimate enough time to cover any and all problems I might run into and price out all the material required. I also have to include some money to cover my time doing the quote. If I do not run into any problems, it may take less time than I estimated, but you will still pay the fixed price you had agreed upon. 

2. Who is sent to my home to do the repair work?
  • I do not send some low paid unskilled person to your home to do your repair work. I will show up at your home at the agreed upon time with all the tools to do the repair work. 

3.Who provides the material for handyman jobs ?
  • While I am happy to provide the material for handyman jobs it is better and cheaper if you provide the materials yourself. I can provide the material however I will have to mark-up the material price to cover my shopping time, delivery and fuel. If it is too big a load for me to bring in my transport then you will have to pay for the transportation fee to deliver it. 
  • I do have some basic things like screws, wall anchors and calking. If you can send me pictures and a list of what you want me to do I will endeavor to bring all of the material with me however there is no guarantee that I will have everything to your liking. If I have to leave the job site to go and get material you will have to pay my hourly rate for that shopping trip and the cost of the material. 
4.Is there a minimum charge?
  • The minimum charge is one hour. For time over the hour I charge by the 15min.
5.How much do you charge?
  • I work on an hourly basis, I charge RM100 per hour . If I am picking up material for you I mark-up the price to help cover my shopping time, delivery and fuel costs. The clock starts when I arrive in your place. 
  • My minimum charge is one hour. 
  • For time over the hour I charge by the 15min. 
  • For handyman service calls in Puchong area there is no trip charge but for handyman service calls outside of the Puchong area there is a RM20~RM50 trip charge.
  • If you can give me a list of the jobs you need done and some pictures I will endeavor to bring the material required with me and give you an estimate of how long I think it will take. I don’t give fixed price quotes because it is the most economical for you that I work on an hourly basis. People who give a fixed price for home repair projects have to charge enough to cover all unforeseen problems that they might run into in repairing your home. You would end up paying for time not worked and if they run into some unforeseen problem they would still want to charge you extra. 
  • I just charge for the time it takes. 
  • If I have to make a special trip to the store to complete a job the clock is still ticking. 
  • I do have a fixed price rate for some job, please text for inquiry.
