Not All Handyman Services Are the Same
Whether it’s a leaky tap, a broken switchboard, or a complete office repair — hiring the right handyman makes a big difference.
A great one will save you time, money, and stress. The wrong one? Can turn small fixes into bigger problems.
Here are 5 essential things to look for before hiring any handyman service — and why MendMate was built with these in mind.
1. Reliability Over Promises
It’s easy to say “we’ll be there,” but do they actually show up?
-
Look for reviews and punctuality feedback
-
Check if they offer fixed appointment windows
-
Do they follow up after service?
At MendMate, we respect your time — and our technicians are trained to be on time, every time.
2. Clear, Transparent Pricing
No one likes surprise charges after the job is done.
-
Do they offer upfront quotes?
-
Are the charges based on time, service, or parts?
-
Are there any hidden fees?
MendMate provides transparent pricing before any job begins, so you always know what you’re paying for.
3. Skilled Across Services
Many handymen are good at one thing — but what if you need plumbing and carpentry and a quick electrical fix?
-
Ask if their technicians are multi-skilled
-
Do they carry proper tools for various jobs?
MendMate technicians are trained across multiple categories, so you don’t have to hire three people for one visit.
4. Safety & Verification
You’re letting someone into your home or office. Trust matters.
-
Are technicians background-verified?
-
Do they wear uniforms and carry ID?
-
Is the service insured?
Every MendMate technician is ID-verified, uniformed, and trained to follow safety protocols
5. Post-Service Support
What happens after the job? If something isn’t quite right — will they come back?
-
Do they offer any service guarantee?
-
Is it easy to reach customer support?
MendMate offers a 7-day service guarantee on basic jobs and a real support team that answers — not just an email box.
