How much should a Handyman charge in 2024

How much should you be charging as a tradesman of handyman in 2024?
I have been shocked at the epic price difference between professional tradesman and scroungers looking for a quick buck.
I just began resurrecting my old Odd Job Man business that I kicked to the kurb 6 years ago after becoming consumed by a passion for other investments.
Now I am back to rebuild the Odd Job Man Empire to enhance our civilisation with a Trojan horse, Ai proof business that create jobs and income for thousands.

Just stumbled onto this video. We do property maintenance and wouldn’t entertain that job for anything less than £75. The time it takes to drive there, to do the job and what not. £50 is low. How any business is surviving charging that is beyond me. We charge £60 for the 1st hour and then £45 an hour thereafter.

I work in London and I charge £90 each for flush and tilt mount so £180 for 2. If full motion, anywhere between £120 to £200 each depending on if the wall need to be reinforced.

[@kevinhuntley4511]

I am a handyman and I would charge £80 for 2 tv brackets. I charge for my talent not the customers budget!customers who want to pay rock bottom prices aren’t worth having imo

[@Mark-im2go]

Personally i think you need to be earning at the very least £25 an hour, anyone you employ you should be charging out at twice what you are paying them

[@EdenAudio]

I paid a fella £75 7 years ago to fit a coaxial cable from the TV to the wall socket😅 The next day he came back to fit the wall bracket and he charged me another 75.

seems low. I would be looking to check the job get more info. Then im £40 an hour min plus materials (travel inc. for local area). I'm sole trader btw no VAT

[@ThriveTalesTV]

50 £ for 2 tv mounts is cheap . I would charge 100 £ for 2 in london

[@craggascas]

Under pricing yourself and being the cheap guy isn't the way forward. You'll always be known as the cheap guy rather than the guy that provides a quality assured finish. I would want to be paid for the skill set I offer rather than to be paid for being cheap. If the customer doesn't like the price, you will always find another job to do and they can find themselves another trader who is happy to be called the cheap guy lol

A bar of chocolate in Tesco is £1 in a convenience store is £2 we are a convenience get them out of trouble paying your self McDonald’s rate is a joke what happens if you break down flat tyres accident ect dude I can’t believe your charging that crack on

[@craggascas]

Totally think you are undercutting yourself at even £50. I'd be charging at least £35 to £40 each TV and bracket. No way would I be travelling that far for £11+ an hour.

[@robertbethell]

I would charge my half day price - £90. But I wouldn't ever drive that far for a job! If it was in my town, maybe £50.

[@robertneely5148]

You wouldn’t drive 10 miles? Do you live in a city Center?

[@robertbethell]

​@@robertneely5148No I wouldn't drive 10 miles, especially for a small job. Plenty of work in my town and nearby villages.
