I would give free over the phone estimates, free estimates via text messaging and free estimates via email. I would need as much details as possible concerning your project. Providing me with pictures and videos are very helpful. I understand that some projects would require an on-site visit but not all projects require an on-site visit. I currently operate my business independently and it’s impossible for me to visit every potential Customer’s home to give an estimate. Therefore, I employ this method for providing Clients estimates. If a visit is absolutely necessary I would then schedule a visit.

I don’t employ an hourly rate. I give flat rates for my jobs.

My minimum service rate is $125 (plus cost of supplies) for jobs within my service area (Summerlin). I’m very willing to travel beyond Summerlin for any size job but please do understand that small jobs beyond Summerlin will include my minimum rate plus a travel fee. Larger scale jobs beyond Summerlin would have the travel fee waived. My minimum rate of $125 supersedes the cost of my standard rate if the standard rates combined total less than $125.

Please see the link labeled “Minimum Rate Explained” for more details. The link is located on this website above my Google Reviews and below my Bio.

My standard rate for installing a ceiling fan that is 60 inches or smaller on a 9ft ceiling or shorter is $125 and $25 to remove the old ceiling fan. Ceiling fan removal does not include disposal.

 *Is there a prewired electrical box in your ceiling for mounting a ceiling fan?

*Are you wanting an old ceiling fan removed and a new ceiling fan installed?

*Are you wanting a light fixture removed and a ceiling fan installed? If so, do you know if your current light fixture electrical box is rated for a ceiling fan?

*What is the approximate height of your ceiling?

Generally my rate for mounting TV’s on drywall at eye level follows as such:

*55 inches or less is $100 or less (labor only)

*65 inches to 75 inches is $125-$160 (labor only)

*80 inches or more is $180-Up (labor only)

Those rates are subject to change based on wall material (marble, brick, tile, stucco, drywall), added services such as TV cord concealment kit installation, soundbar install, securing cords from various devices behind TV, etc and the complexity of the mount (above a fireplace, 8ft from the ground, move heavy furniture, etc).

*Will there be someone there to assist me with lifting the TV or will I have to hire a Helper?

*Are you needing an old TV removed before mounting the new TV?

*What’s the material of your wall? 

*How many TV’s are you needing mounted and what are their sizes?

*Do you have the TV and TV mount on-hand?

*Are you needing TV cords concealed or a sound-bar mounted, etc?

*Are you needing a TV mounted above a fireplace?

*Are you wanting your TV mounted above eye level?

My standard rate for installing a kitchen faucet or bathroom faucet is $125. 

If I’m required to remove components such as drain piping or garbage disposal in order to access your faucet then that extra service would be added to the invoice. Also, if your faucet has severe rust underneath then that removal typically requires beyond standard removal services. I would add that extra service to your invoice. Most faucet replacement jobs are standard removals and are not subjected to extra cost.

My rate for drywall repairs varies depending on a variety of factors such as:

*Do items have to be moved to access the damaged drywall? 

*What’s the size of the damaged drywall?

*Does the repaired drywall have to be textured?

*Does the repaired drywall have to be painted? If so, do you have the paint?

My rate for mounting pictures, artwork and mirrors are based on a variety of details such as:

*What are the sizes of the items?

*How heavy are the items?

*Is the mounting hardware attached to the items?

*Will I need to supply wall mounting hardware?

*Is furniture required to be moved?

*Are you wanting items mounted on a staircase?

*Will items be mounted at abnormal heights?

*What is the collective value of the items (for insurance purposes & estimate purposes)?

*Can you provide me with details of what you are wanting painted?

*How many rooms, doors, etc..?

*Are you wanting walls, trim and ceilings painted?

*Do you have the paint on-hand? If so, can you open the container to ensure that the paint is good paint?

*What color scheme do you have planned?

*Are you wanting dark colors painted over with lighter colors?

My standard rate for removing your old toilet from the first floor and installing your new toilet on the first floor is $200 (labor only). 

Removing your old toilet does not include disposal of your old toilet. Disposal of your old toilet is $100. I would install new parts as needed for your new toilet installation and then include those parts to your invoice. Typically those new parts would cost $25 or less if needed. Also, if your toilet is on the 2nd floor, 3rd floor, etc. then transporting your new toilet to the floor of the installation and transporting the old toilet to the first floor would add extra cost to your invoice. I also offer the service of shopping for your new toilet and delivering your new toilet upon request.

My rates for toilet repairs are contingent on what repairs are needed. My rate to rebuild your your toilet follows as such:

*Toilets with a 2 bolt pattern in the water tank ($170 labor only)

*Toilets with a 3 bolt pattern in the water tank ($200 labor only)

Rebuilding a toilet consist of removing the toilet tank and replacing all components associated with the toilet tank which consist of a fill valve, flushing assembly, flushing handle, water tank ring, bolts and rubber washers. In most cases a toilet rebuild would resolve toilet problems but I can’t promise with absolute certainty that a toilet rebuild would resolve problems associated with your old toilet. I warrantee that the old toilet is rebuilt correctly but I don’t warrantee that the functionality would improve after the toilet is rebuilt. My recommendation is if your toilet is 15 years old, replace it. In the long term it would cost you less.
