Why should a handyman price for admin and unpaid time?

Direct answer: Pricing breaks when admin and unpaid time aren't baked into rates.

Practical steps

  • Admin time is real: Calls, texts, scheduling.
  • Unpaid gaps exist: Travel and prep.
  • Rates must absorb it: Or profit disappears.

Next step: Use the calculator with realistic non-billable hours.
