How flat-rate pricing works.

We charge a $59 assessment trip fee that applies toward your final invoice. Once we know the scope, you get a flat-rate price — not an open-ended hourly clock. The numbers below are what most Gilbert and Chandler homeowners pay for a standard install or repair.

    Credited to your invoice

What changes the final price?

Accessibility

Ceiling fans on high ceilings, attic water heaters, or exterior fixtures take longer and may need extra equipment.

Materials

Customer-supplied fixtures, faucets, and fans keep the price at labor only. We can also source materials and add them to the invoice.

Condition of the existing work

A simple swap costs less than repairing rot, old wiring, or plumbing that needs to be brought up to code.

HOA requirements

Many Gilbert and Chandler communities require notice, specific hours, or vendor insurance documentation — we handle that for you.

Why Gilbert and Chandler homeowners choose flat-rate service.

Homes here range from 1990s builds in established neighborhoods to newer construction in master-planned communities. Many of the repair calls we get are small but urgent: a leaking toilet, a dead outlet before a weekend, a ceiling fan that wobbles, or a drywall hole after a door handle goes through the wall. Those jobs are exactly what a handyman is for — and flat-rate pricing means you know the cost before we pick up a tool.

We serve HOAs throughout the East Valley and carry the insurance documentation most associations require. Whether you are in Power Ranch, Seville, Ocotillo, or a custom home near the Santan Mountains, we schedule most repairs within a day or two.
