Frequently asked questions
What does a handyman charge per hour in Wales?
Typically £30–£50 an hour, though most prefer a half-day (£100–£180) or full-day (£180–£320) rate for anything beyond a single small job.
Is a handyman cheaper than a specialist trade?
For small jobs, usually yes. But gas work must go to a Gas Safe engineer and most electrical work needs a Part P registered electrician — no handyman should take those on.
