Price Transparency
None of the locals have any pricing on their websites. As a customer I hate searching for general pricing. I'm considering posting my trip fee and pricing for some of the more common tasks a handyman would do. Tough to do for more custom jobs or problematic installs, but it seems that letting a customer know up front that replacing a basic ceiling fan is $99 labor may save them, and me, some time. Thoughts?

We designed an F.A.Q. page on our website to answer a lot of those "pricing/estimate" questions customers love to ask. It's been very helpful over the years and it's easy enough to change if you adjust your pricing.
Heres ours for an example: https://besthandymanboston.com/faq/Thank you, I'll take a look.
I don't disagree. I have a lot of my pricing available on my website. I am just starting out, so this does not mean I'm right.
I have thought about doing the same to weed out the "tire kickers" looking for the cheapest alternative. That way, I think, I will be responding to qualified clients and won't spend time chasing jobs that don't want to pay for quality work.
