What should my handyman minimum charge be?

Direct answer: Set a minimum that covers travel, setup, and overhead so small jobs still pay.

Practical steps

• Cover setup + travel: Your minimum must pay even for 'quick' jobs.
• Protect schedule slots: A small job still blocks time on your calendar.
• Stay consistent: Minimum works only if you enforce it every time.

Next step: Use the calculator to set a minimum that keeps small jobs profitable.
