FAQ
What should I choose: hourly or per-project?
It comes down to personal preference. Some prefer to pay their handyman by the hour. This allows them to see exactly what they charge. Others prefer to pay for each completed project since they may have multiple jobs simultaneously. Both are fine.
What happens if a handyman causes me damage or doesn't do his job as I would like?
Notify him immediately if something goes wrong with the project. It is a good idea to keep a detailed log and include photographs. Contact your insurance company to file a claim.
What qualifications does a handyman need?
A handyman's most important attribute is patience. You should also have experience working on electrical systems, carpentry skills, plumbing knowledge, and a strong understanding of home maintenance.
Many jobs are available to qualified workers. However, if they don't exist, you may not be eligible.
You may want to look into getting training at a school that offers these courses.
When is the right moment to hire a handyman
There isn't really a "right" time to hire a handyman. You simply need to get started as soon as possible. It is possible to wait until after the holidays to save money. But you could also just pick up the phone and call around to different handymen.
Which is more difficult: being a contractor or a handyman.
A handyman does not require as much resources as contracting. You only need to have your tools. It is important that you are able to manage your workload and work schedule. Contractors often rely heavily on subcontractors.
How long does it take to complete a typical DIY job?
An average DIY project takes between two and four hours. The complexity and difficulty levels of the project determine the length.

How To
How to replace a damaged tile
Step 1 - Remove the old tiles.
The tiles should be removed from the flooring and placed aside. These tiles should be kept intact in case you need them again. You can note the parts that are missing or damaged so that you can find replacements.
Step 2 – Choose New Tiles
Check out these options for tile replacement.
-
Find a new tile that's similar to the one you removed.
-
To match a tile, you can use the measurements you took after removing it. This will make it easy to get the correct size without having again to measure.
-
Consider looking for colors, patterns, textures and sizes in a variety of shapes and colors.
-
Consider what grout you'd like to use (if any). Some people prefer to use a single color, while others love mixing it up.
-
Be sure to select a tile that is resistant against moisture.
-
Finally, consider the placement of your new tile -- you can save time and money by ensuring the area you're installing it in has enough space for proper installation.
-
Once you've chosen your tile, order it online or call your local Lowe's store to place your order.
Step 3 – Install the new tiles.
You can install new tiles in the same way you did before. It's important to align them correctly in order for them to fit together.
Step 4 – Clean up
Before putting down the final layer of protective material, clean up all the debris from the floor.
This will prevent dust and dirt from building up between the tiles.
Step 5 -- Sand the Floor
After everything has been cleaned, sand it down to remove any remaining particles from the previous steps.
Step 6 - Finish Off
Apply the protective coatings once the floor is smooth. You should wait until this stage as wet paint can stain new tiles.
You can always use a "damp and dry" product on your floors to protect them from staining.
However, it won't cover every possible problem that may occur after you've installed your new tiles. You might want to add an anti-slip coating to the protective layer if there are a lot of children.
Finally, don't forget to keep your protective sealer in place for several weeks before moving into your new home.
