2. There is a 100
% mark-up AT LEAST.
Most handyman companies employ an assortment of Handymen who all work for 40 to 50% of the contract.
When you get your "free estimate" it has already been marked up 100 to 150%.
Whatever the Handyman wants for the job he has to double (at least) to make his percentage. This is a huge mark-up by the company to cover overhead and advertising costs.
So the bigger the company or the more advertising they do does not mean a better company.
It only means more expensive repairs for you!
