Affordable and Flexible Handyman Pricing – Harpenden & Surrounding Areas

​

At Handyman Harpenden Solutions, we keep pricing transparent, fair and straightforward. Whether you need a quick fix, skilled carpentry, professional painting, or fully bespoke work, you’ll get clear value without compromising on quality.

​

No Job Too Small

​

Unlike many trades who require full-day bookings, we offer the flexibility to book just one hour.
If your odd job or small repair can be completed within that time, that’s all you pay, ideal for quick maintenance tasks that still need a professional handyman.

​

How It Works

​

Hourly Rates

​

• £65 for the first hour (includes travel, setup and tools)

• £45 per hour thereafter

• Charged in 30-minute increments after the first hour

• No VAT

Perfect for small repairs, minor carpentry adjustments, painting touch-ups, flat-pack assembly, and general handyman tasks.

​

Fixed Pricing

​

Prefer a guaranteed price?
We can provide a fixed written quote for the agreed scope of work only, so you know the exact cost, regardless of the duration, you'll pay the agreed price.

​

Bespoke Work

​

“Bespoke” refers to items or projects that aren’t off-the-shelf for example:

• Custom shelving

• Built-in carpentry

• Made-to-measure solutions

• Tailored repairs requiring specialist skill

These are priced at a higher rate due to the additional precision, planning and craftsmanship involved.

​

Free, No-Obligation Quote

​

You’ll receive a clear, detailed quote, usually following a visit, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.

​

No Hidden Costs

​

You only pay for the work you request. No unexpected extras, no surprises.

​

100% Satisfaction Guarantee

​

Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If something isn’t right, we’ll put it right.

​

When Rates May Vary

​

Standard rates apply to general handyman work during normal working hours.
Prices may differ for:

• Bespoke or specialist carpentry work
  Custom builds require additional time and expertise.
