Questions Homeowners Ask Us
Plain answers from Trailhead Handyman. If your question isn't here, call (940) 577-5880.
What kinds of jobs does Trailhead Handyman take?
Small and medium jobs around the house: the running punch list most homes collect, fixture swaps, TV mounting, furniture assembly, fence and gate repair, painting, tile work, cabinet repair, pool equipment repair, small engine and trailer repair, small welding jobs, and moving help. We don't take work that needs a licensed electrician, plumber, or roofer.
How do I get an estimate?
Send your list through the contact form with a photo of each item. We reply with any questions, then send an estimate for the whole list before any work starts. Clear photos of each item help us make that estimate as accurate as we can.
How much do you charge?
Labor is $50 per hour, plus supplies. Send your list with a photo of each item and we'll reply with an estimate of the hours and supplies it should take, so you know what to expect before the work starts. The bill reflects the actual hours and supplies.
Which areas do you serve?
We serve homeowners across Dallas-Fort Worth, including Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, and Wise counties. If you're near the edge of the metro, put your address in the request and we'll confirm we can reach you before anything is scheduled.
Can I combine several small jobs into one visit?
Yes, and it's the best way to use a handyman. One visit that covers the loose towel bar, the sticking door, and the shelf that never got hung costs less than three separate trips. Send the whole list and we'll plan the visit around it.
Do I need to buy the materials?
Either way works. If you've already picked a faucet, a fan, or paint, have it on site and we install it. If you'd rather we pick up standard parts such as anchors, caulk, hinges, and lumber, say so when you request the estimate and we include them.
Can you mount a TV on brick or over a fireplace?
Usually, yes. Brick and stone take masonry anchors, and a mount over a fireplace needs a stud or a rated backer behind the mantel. Send a photo of the wall and the TV size with your request and we'll confirm the right mount before the visit.
