Great advice Ray, I’m 3 months into my handyman business, coming out of 21 years of Air Force service, I don’t ever want to work for anyone ever again, happy to report that business is certainly busy, it is a scary transition into being an independent, certainly a learning curve, lots to learn, which is why I’m here watching videos of individuals like yourself in the business to get some advice and tips. There is certainly a demand for competent handyman services.

You are so right! I had been wanting to do a RU-vid channel for a while when I made this one but I had been putting it off because I felt like I needed to have a lot of things perfect first. But I noticed there weren't any RU-vid handyman that were giving me the info that I had been desperately looking for when I was starting up so I finally decided to just jump in and do it. We've come a long way since then.

Hello Ray, you really boosted my confidence as a handyman. I recently migrated to Canada with little experience as a handyman but I lack confidence of getting work done, because I always have this notion that things that I'm familiar with back home are different in Canada,. However, I think the actual cause of my doubt is because I haven't done or seen the job done first hand. Over the past few weeks I have bought tools worth over $4,000 and I have done some couple of jobs and my clients were quite happy with the outcome of the jobs and they keep referring me to their neighbours and friends. Even at that I still feel that I'm not good or perfect as a handyman and lack confidence. But your video has really motivated me. Thanks a lot.

For the last 2 years we've had a flat rate on toilets. We replace the entire toilet with an affordable toilet from home depot for $350. For any other toilet repair we're usually just charging our base trip fee which is $125 to change a fill valve or seat or whatever.

I really enjoyed your story brother. I’m 20 and I decided that I’m going full time into handyman within the next 6 months. I had my first $1,000 day installing security cameras and I have not been able to look at careers the same. I have friends who’ve already graduated college and are out in corporate positions making a “good 35/hr” talking trash about the guys pumping the grease traps for $700 a tank

Bro, I really apprecciate your straightforward and extremely valuable information. You need to know how effectively you have communicated your message because it is a rare skill in the world today and this type of honest talk stands out high and far above the rest. I am of the opinion, having watched the entire video, that your natural talent comes from the heart you have as a provider for your family first, and desire to help your fellow man. This is what the people truly need my friend and you are doing a good thing here, doubt it not! Lastly, I thank you for your service to our great nation sir, it is much appreciated. Carry on my man & may God bless you and your house! PEACE

My problem is that we live in the middle of nowhere. Lots of little tourist towns, but no Home Depot‘s or stores like that within an hours distance. Local hardware stores charge 4 to 5 times as much for the parts, so having a good inventory is almost required, which bumps the start up cost of any handyman business up greatly. Eventually pays itself off, however.

Great intro "Bulletproof"! I've been a Realtor for 22yrs and just recently jumped on the "handyman" boat (thanks to COVID). I was down for 7 weeks, during when my CE classes were due. Anyway, I had also been rehabbing homes for the last 11yrs and this was the perfect time for me to make the transition (been at it since Nov 2021). I just wanted to say that your video was inspirational... Thanks!

Tons of great information! I’ve been doing handyman work for many years and after Covid I decided to give it a try and I’m loving it! I still struggle with pricing cause I’ve always been frugal and most of the stuff I’m doing comes easy for me. Recently I decided to up my cost and on a bold occasion I added another 50% to my estimate as a WTF can happen moment and bud was accepted. :) very happy I did!

I'm in a different industry entirely, but this was inspiring because so much of it applies.

The bit about why clients value a good service provider (one text, they don't have to think about it anymore) was really key too.

been a handyman for 7 years now and learned a lot of good information!

I like the small jobs get in get out and do several a day. pays better at least for me.

@bulletproofhandyman 2 года назад
I mostly agree here. I do love building kitchens, but I wouldn't want to do it every day. On a per hour basis I could make the argument for either route, but as you can see I've chosen the route of multiple small jobs. Of course now that I'm collecting subcontractors and having them do some of the work that has cut into my ability to make great money doing the easy work because I'm giving it all away lol.

Wow great video. I will be retiring within the next 2 years and was thinking about starting a handyman business. I’ve always done mechanical work. Have owned my home for 25 years. Always have done the vast majority of my work myself. You learn a lot owning a home. I have excellent troubleshooting skills and great thought processes on figuring out how things are put together,how they should work, and what it will take to fix it. This being said,this is what it takes to fix things.The funny thing is I feel that nobody really taught me all of this. For the most part I figure things out myself. By the way I’m have been a registered nurse for 25 years. Make really good money, but that won’t last forever. One thing my father always told me was I could never be a business man because I’m too honest. Hope that isn’t true to the fact that would stop me from making money. Told my son to watch what I’m doing so that when he has a wife and she asks him to do something he will have the knowledge to fix it. Then I told him on second thought don’t learn anything. If something breaks tell her that you will call someone to come fix it. LOL. Sorry so long. You are truly an inspiration.

When you’re talking about 90% of the time….90% of jobs…etc. I work from a similar strategy. My tool bag, drill bag and a pack out/hardware assortment case can handle 90% of my jobs. For the other 10% I keep kits for more specific jobs (plumbing/painting/electrical). Always play the odds and know what you need virtually all the time.

I feel like the actual number of necessary tools is surprisingly small. Been working on building my kits lately. I'd like to have a kit for every job that has both tools and parts ready to go.

The only problem I've had doing this model is. You have everything but what you need. And still end up having to go for parts. And the big inventory you bought gets damaged and lost from bouncing around in your van. My advice is to make a materials journal and stock the most common items you purchase monthly
@bulletproofhandyman
@bulletproofhandyman Год назад
Valid point. I learned that the hard way, losing or damaging good materials. I'm slowly building an informal inventory now but I've gotten more organized with bins for different jobs that stay relatively safe.

Thank you!! Great information!! I was curious after listening to this . How do you approach or manage potential liabilities? Example : 2nd or third floor leaks(toilet leak from the flange) or any mysterious leaks or Roof repairs. I typically don’t touch these things because of the potential for problems and discovery of large jobs.

So far I just try to take care of everything that my property managers ask, but I charge more to cover the potential of future problems.

Wow wow wow, you moved from complacency to action. I am a service writer for a dealership and have been looking for a way out, as licensed home inspector I occasionally am asked if I can perform certain repairs which I have done. After listening to your entire story I'm motivated that I can step out and make a difference for my family also. One question...you mentioned business license, how critical is that for a startup and how do you get it.
@bulletproofhandyman
@bulletproofhandyman Год назад
Yes it really is. Get an account and pay him to draw up and file an LLC. A good one will obtain your necessary business licenses. Get insurance. Have the business set up legally and properly so that you can focus solely on succeeding. It won't just happen. Every detail matters.

Investment properties are the best. No emotional attachment by the person authorizing/ paying for the work. They aren’t shopping for a particular repair--they need a problem solved.
