Handyman Services in Richardson, TX

Honest, master-licensed work for Richardson's established neighborhoods. Most Richardson handyman calls start with the same kind of list — a leaking faucet, a sticking door, a wobbly fan, and four other small things that have been on the punch list for months. We dispatch one licensed craftsman with a stocked truck to knock them out in a single visit.

Handyman work for Richardson's homes

Predominantly 1970s–1990s ranch and split-level homes, 2,000–3,800 sq ft, often with original aluminum-branch wiring, polybutylene plumbing, and original 150 amp panels — all overdue for upgrade. City of Richardson aggressively enforces aluminum-wiring remediation and Pex-A repipe standards. Older Canyon Creek slabs have a documented history of cast-iron drain failures.

That housing stock changes which handyman jobs we get called for most. In Canyon Creek and Bent Tree, we see a steady mix of drywall patching, trim repair, fixture swaps, and weatherstripping — exactly the kind of work that sits between a contractor and a specialty trade. We handle it cleanly in one visit.

Neighborhoods we cover in Richardson

Our Richardson handyman crew dispatches across Canyon Creek, Bent Tree, Heights, Berkner, Telecom Corridor, plus every ZIP in 75080 and 75081 and 75082. You'll get a text 30 minutes before arrival with the craftsman's name and photo, and the same craftsman handles your job start to finish — no hand-offs.

When to call a handyman vs. a licensed trade in Richardson

If the job is multi-trade, small, and doesn't require a permit, the handyman is the right call. If it touches the main panel, gas line, main sewer, or anything the City of Richardson requires a permit for, we deploy our licensed master electrician or plumber instead — and you only make one call. Our larger Richardson projects often grow from a handyman visit, which is why we cross-train every craftsman to spot problems early.

Richardson handyman pricing

Flat-rate, quoted before we start. Most multi-item Richardson visits land between $300 and $850 depending on parts and list size, with a 2-hour minimum. Bigger lists save more per item — bundling 4–6 small jobs into a single visit is the cheapest way to work with us. Ask about our Home Shield membership: $249/month or $2,688/year (save $300) for one scheduled monthly visit of up to two technician-hours for inspection, documentation, and small repairs within the visit's time and scope, with priority Richardson scheduling. Approved additional labor is $95 per technician-hour in 30-minute increments; eligible larger approved projects receive 10% off self-performed labor, capped at $500 per project. Materials and excluded charges are separate; the discount cannot be combined with other promotions. Unused time does not roll over, and emergency or after-hours service is not included. Separately billed work requires written approval.
