Simple principle
Price the result, not the time it takes somebody to get there.
Five Seasons Handyman prices work by the job. Before approved work begins, you know the price for the defined scope. You do not have to wonder whether a slow hour, extra trip to the truck, or a longer-than-expected adjustment is quietly increasing an hourly bill.
Estimates are free. We define the scope, price the work by the job, and give you the opportunity to approve the project price before work begins.
Job price vs. hourly billing
Why we prefer a defined project price
Hourly billing
- Final labor cost may stay uncertain until the work is done
- Customer has an incentive to watch the clock
- Slow or complicated work can keep adding cost
- The conversation can become about minutes instead of the finished repair
Five Seasons by-the-job pricing
- Exact approved price for the defined scope before work begins
- Free estimate and clear by-the-job pricing for the defined scope
- Efficiency does not create a billing argument
- Scope changes are separated and approved before added work
Next step
Ready to get this off your list?
Send the problem, photos when useful, and any other small jobs you want us to review. We will define the scope and price the work by the job before approved work begins.
Small-job value
Small jobs are welcome—and a complete list can accomplish more.
Bundle your list
If you have several small jobs, send them together. One visit that handles a mailbox, door adjustment, cabinet hinge, and loose trim can create far more value than four separate calls.
No surprise add-ons
If hidden damage or a new request changes the scope, we stop and tell you what changed. Added work is priced and approved before it is performed.
How pricing works
From request to approved price
- 1
You describe the work
Send the main problem, relevant measurements or photos, and other small items you may want bundled.
- 2
We define the scope
The price is based on what is actually included, the condition we can reasonably evaluate, access, materials, and finish expectations.
- 3
You receive the job price
Your estimate is free. Once the scope is defined, you know the project price before work begins.
- 4
Changes require approval
A materially different hidden condition or customer-requested addition is treated as added scope, not silently folded into a running bill.
