My Dad completely tore apart his kitchen and remade it all, he built his own garage, and does his own landscaping, he paints, all around my Dad is a handy man. He learned most of what he knows from youtube. One day I will be as handy as my Dad, but honestly I lack the discipline.

Hah! You just struck a chord in my brain... I worked a year after college as a "warranty superintendent" for a very large homebuilding company based in MI. We did the "customers for life" mindset... that was the first book they gave us as a matter of fact. I have a full time job as a site development project manager, but for the last 20 years, I've done interior remodeling and repair work, both residential and commercial, on "nights and weekends" basis and throw the extra shekels toward a retirement fund or new tools. Anyway, you're absolutely right, it's super important to approach the customer in a personable, friendly manner and smile... as long as you have some halfway decent actual mechanic skills, you're golden, and most people will call you again and again. The grumpy ones that don't respond in kind to a smiling happy demeanor - have to find a new fixer/builder. Keep up the good vid work!

When I moved into my house 3 years ago my neighbor was a contractor and he is a flipper. I met him at our open house and explained to him what my plan was for my house. I told him I wanted to fix up the house and rent it out. He never spoke to me after that point and when i saw him sell his house I figured out why. I like your video's and I stumbled on your videos from the house extension and just the jobs you were you doing. I appreciate the video's and keep up the good work.

I started my business a year and a half ago. It was a side business just to earn extra cash. Next Friday, 02/23/18, will be my last day with my full time job, and my business will become my full time job. I attribute my success to exactly the principles you discuss here (and a few things you've touched on in older videos). I'm definitely looking forward to following this series. Keep up the fine work, brother!

I own a large construction company and we use independent handyman alot to help with overwhelming amounts of small stuff. Sometimes punch list stuff. We have had good ones and bad ones over the years. But when i get out of this buisness, which is coming up i will be doing small jobs on my own, be mostly finish work, trim, kitchens, tile, etc. Not worrying about 20 employees will be nice.

Electrical, plumbing, carpentry, drywall and everything else being licensed in all the above also. Your channel is ver informative and straight forward.

I do building maintenance. I call a guy about cleaning a drain and he starts walking me through doing it. I finally said "do you not want to come and do it" He said he was so busy he has more work than he can do. So I ask "How did you do that" He told me the big break was when he figured out to put his business card under the bottle of drain cleaner at stores. He said when he started his business any time he didn't have a drain to clean he would go to any store selling drain cleaner and put his cards under the bottle. He said within a month he was swamped.

Thanks for not saying spend tons of money on marketing, facebook and all the social media riff raff. You pretty much said "Get your punk ass up early in the morning and leave out of your home and start putting yourself out there and tell people about you..." Which is what I'mdoing. Been about 5 years but I'm going to get back out there. I'm only 38 so I still have plenty life left. lol Word of mouth ALWAYS wins marketing.

I started being a handyman 2 years ago. Found your vids few months ago. Got started on nextdoor app and been working non stop since. I dont have to advertise anymore, customers come to me. I am highly recommended on the nextdoor app. With that and word of mouth I always have work. I am o the point where I am making as much as I can. It has leveled out. I cn only handle the amount of work that one man can with never having a day off. Barely have time to do my laundry or mow my own lawn before dark. I have got to get to the next level. Need time off but want to increase my income. You seem to do it. I want to know how to slow down but at the same time increase my income. I live in California. It is possible to do this without expanding, hiring helpers? I cant find a helper with the same state of mind as me and to want to do things my way not there own so that doesn't work but there is only one of me. I am what the people want. Even If I could keep my income steady and get time off to enjoy life would be great. Im 48, my body is feeling it. I dont have time to eat right, rest, dont see my friends hardly at all. I'm always busy. Running the whole day late because I took the time to vent, hoping you have the advise I need to better my business. I dont know where that one spot is that your email exist is why I'm doing this so every one can see.

Hi Eric. I went through this a few years after I started. I worked every day for a full month and only made $6,800. I was thinking of going back to my old career. I knew I couldn't possibly do more jobs. The only way to increase my income was to get paid more for those jobs. I started watching every sales seminar I could find on the internet. I read the top rated books on sales and persuasion. I went from making $6,800 in 30 days to making $9,000 in 14 days. I have a pretty aggressive savings and investing plan. I'm 42 and my body is telling me to slow down. I don't see my self keeping this pace up for more than a few years.

I was a hired to sweep floors and empty chip bins in a machine shop for prototype aircraft parts. I started doing odd jobs like maintenance, sharpening consumables, and constructing shelves or tool holders. Eventually started doing assembly, manual machining, and CNC operation. Pretty much just filled in whenever a department was behind or someone had to take off work. I liked the frequent change of pace. I am getting into the junk removal business and it seems like a great opportunity to upsell minior home and car maintenance and repairs since I am already on-site to give an estimate. All of the people telling me to "spend money to make money" as in ads, also happen to be the people who sell and manage the ads.

Yes you are absolutely correct sell yourself. I was a salesman many years ago and people buy because they like you. They will invite you into their home for you to do work for them because they like you. Trust is another thing to build on If they don’t trust u you will never get in. Be smart don’t smell of cigarettes make sure van tools clothes dust sheets are clean and u don’t smell bad. Be weary of working with lone women in house try to arrange time when husband is in to work especially new customers. Don’t be cheap don’t cut corners. Don’t lie. Tidy up well like you never been there better still don’t be messy. If you get stuck go out to your van and u tube how to do it. Invest in good tools and always keep them tip top. Brake it replace it. Do a freebie eg notice f door handle is squeaky give it a spray with oil let them know how smooth it is now and you did it for them. Not for payment. It’s called in sales terms a customer hug 👍👍👍

I started doing renovations and handyman work but unfortunately my boss isn’t around all the time and he’ll work on other houses or side work, but I’d love to learn more. I’ve learned a bit of electrical, framing, done plenty of demo lol, flooring (easy), and I’d love to gain experience then get out on my own like my older brother does. He makes at least $5000 a week and doesn’t work anywhere near 40 hour work weeks, ever. I’m a single mom and would love to really learn everything! I’m ADHD so I don’t learn like others lol. Plus my boss will show me something one time and not really explain the “why” and “how” which I need to be able to retain the information. Do you have any advice? 😩 I’m desperate to gain experience and knowledge with handyman work

No trolls on these comments, all here are very appreciative, as I am - you made a good video. I agree with you: many grumps in the trades. Its not easy work and sometime workers (me included) forget that its not just fixing stuff, its their home (as you say). If you are nice and competent, even if they are having a bad day which is likely since they called you, it works in your favor. Your point of offering to come immediately or that day is a biggie too.

Thanks for this video. I have to comment that almost every time a handyman has come to my house, they forget to bring a needed tool and have to use one of mine (if I have it). My last project was having a utility sink installed in the garage. Well, a general contractor installed it, but he forgot to bring a drill (this is a basic tool, yes?) and had to use my drill. Why is it so difficult to bring all the basic tools to a job? Oh, and they never have a flashlight...

I hooked up with real estate agents and the local hardware stores to get leads. Not the big box stores but the mom and pop guys. Get to know them. Lots of people go to them for advice on who to call for home repairs.

Great channel, How much do you pay for your Shop/Garage. Own/rent.. reason I ask is, having a shop is So crucial.. Business cost for sure, obviously makes your work/storage etc easier. A video on your truck/trailer/shop and things you would keep or change ? Also what not to do ? You may have done these videos before, havent had a chance to look yet.. Keep it up Stud

I own the workshop. We were lucky to find a house that has a separate detached garage with vehicle access. I have 2 videos on my work trailer here are the links. I made this video about 5 years ago long before I had a youtube channel. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJLRnaCjbZmZo80 Here is another one that relates to the trailer Its pretty old too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJvPamepgrqEj5o

Being super high paid handyman is not possible for most people. There is only so much market that will bear paying high premium for physical labor like handyman. I am not sure how you get very high paid jobs, but price is a big factor in if/whether a handyman is hired. My father wanted to install couple of mini splits and he contacted few handyman but they were out of his price range. Way out. So in the end, he would up installing the mini splits himself with my help. No money for handymans because they were asking too much money.

Great videos as always. I do have a few questions that I feel like a lot of people might have especially if you are starting. What kind of insurance does a handyman needs? Also what other legal aspects do you need to start your business such as becoming LLC so there are no legal issues later on? Is that even necessary? What jobs can and can't you do? What I mean by this is I do understand that some jobs are meant for electricians or plumbers who are licensed but what if you have the knowledge to do it? Do I need specific permits or inspections done after completed? Am I even allowed to do such work? I feel before I dive into the handyman business those are questions that anyone should know. Thanks!

The requirements vary quite a bit from state to state. Best thing to do is look on Google for the requirements for your state. Your county and city may also have additional requirements.

You can do anything. You are correct. But you have to WANT to. Most people come up with excuses as to why they can't instead of figuring out why they can.

Top 10 most common jobs you do? So I grew up around construction but my dad wouldn't teach me sh$+.I have done things in my own house tho. Garbage disposal, l.v.p. flooring. Replaced my toilet. Hung my own doors, roofed houses for 10 years. I need to start a business but am worried I don't have enough skills. Also I don't know where the line is between contractor and handyman, so a top 10 jobs a handyman does might be a good video for you. Also I will look to see if you already made a vid like that.
