Question 2: Do you serve areas outside Charleston?

Yes. We proudly serve Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Summerville, and surrounding Lowcountry communities. If you’re unsure whether your location is within our service area, just ask—we’re happy to confirm.

Question 3: Are your handyman services licensed and insured?

Yes. Happy House Handyman is fully insured and operated by a licensed contractor. This means our work meets professional standards, and you can feel confident your home is protected.

Question 4: How soon can I schedule service?

In many cases, we offer same-week availability, depending on the type and scope of work. We also offer priority and urgent scheduling options for time-sensitive needs.

Question 5: How much does a handyman Cost?

There isn’t a simple, one-size-fits-all answer because every home and every project is different. Pricing depends on the type of work, scope of the project, time required, and whether materials are needed.
At Happy House Handyman, we offer tiered pricing based on scheduling needs:
Standard Service – Best value pricing during normal availability
Priority Service – Faster scheduling for projects that can’t wait
Urgent or After-Hours Service – For time-sensitive or emergency needs
This approach allows us to keep routine home maintenance affordable while still being available when urgent issues arise. We always provide a clear estimate upfront, so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

Question 6: Should I hire a handyman or a contractor?

Handyman services are ideal for smaller jobs—repairs, installations, and maintenance tasks that typically take less than half a day. Contractors are usually needed for larger, more involved projects like renovations or structural work.
Happy House Handyman is different. We are a licensed contractor focused on small handyman jobs. If a project grows beyond basic repairs, we can seamlessly transition it to our sister company, owned by the same team and specializing in larger construction projects.
Why this matters: You don’t have to guess who to call—you get one trusted team that can handle it all.

Question 7: Do you offer estimates or inspections?

We provide clear upfront pricing after reviewing the details of your project so you know what to expect before work begins.

Question 8: Can you handle multiple small projects in one visit?

Absolutely. Many homeowners bundle multiple small repairs or installations into one visit to save time and maximize value.

Question 9: Do I need to provide materials?

We’re happy to use homeowner-supplied materials or source them for you—whichever works best for your project.

Question 10: Why should I choose Happy House Handyman?

We combine professional standards, clear communication, and a heart for service. Our goal is simple: help you maintain a safe, comfortable home—so you can enjoy a Happy House.
