How to Prepare for a Handyman Visit

A little preparation lets the handyman spend the visit working instead of searching.

Clear the Way

Move furniture and clear access to the work areas. Put away small valuables, secure pets and make sure the crew can park close to the door.

Tell the handyman about any door codes, alarms or neighbors to be aware of.

Write and Share the List

Send a detailed list with photos before the visit. Mark the most important items and any that are time-sensitive.

If you have parts or fixtures already, keep them in one place.

Know Your Shutoffs

Find your main water shutoff and your electrical panel and tell the handyman where they are. If a job needs power or water off, we will tell you in advance.

Knowing where they are makes emergencies much easier.
