I showed my wife how to change the brake discs and shoes on the truck. Her response... "Thats it? That was easy!" Then I told her to call her favorite garage and ask how much it would be. So she did and came unglued at what they were going to charge her. After that we started fixing things ourselves like I wanted to do in the first place. Most of the things that break around the house you can watch a YouTube video and learn how to fix. You've got a great gig, bro. Keep on making that money. Also those cookie cutter houses aren't worth 1/2 the price they charge new owners.

This whole time I’ve been replacing fill valves and flappers for $35. And drawer guides for $15. No wonder why I’m no longer in business lol.

I once drove across town, about 45 min one way because a guy called and said the power in his kitchen went out. The toaster, coffee maker, micro, etc stopped working. I went in there and pushed the reset button on the GFCI plug, and in an instant, I was a superhero to them. They paid me $200 for that. A lot of men nowadays have no clue HOW to be men, they're too busy getting their nails done and massaging their feet

You described just about every new neighborhood built in Southern California. Where I live in Corona, every neighborhood is built just like that one... 4 plans, 3 elevations each... HOA has the palette of colors permitted, etc... all built with the cheapest materials... with a Home Depot and Lowes right down the street. A handyman's paradise LOL.

do those people call you to tie their shoes aswell? cuz everything in this video should be common sense to any male over the age of 16.

Being a handyman is great and all, just make sure you have liability insurance. Do some work on a toilet and it leaks while the homeowner is away all day and causes 15k in damages, that 1k wont mean shit lol

I use a canvas drop cloth on every single job. It’s a good practice and will convey a certain level of professionalism. It takes away some of the homeowners concerns and they can see that i care about their property and that I pay attention to details. It’s a great space to lay out my tools and create some of ‘my space’ that people, kids and pets usually stay away from. It’s all about exceeding the owners expectations. Even if the floor is dirty already... sometimes the tarp keeps me off of their dirt!

I have had a handyman business for about 6 years now. It's a good hustle and it's as good as you make it. I keep my schedule at about medium capacity so as not to get burned out but I like the challenges and finally am making what I'm worth. Great video.

6:10 I can just see a video in the future that you even blur out your face 😂

Ha, literally just had the ice maker line split on our fridge 3 hours ago while my wife was pulling it out to clean! After a few gallons sprayed all over the kitchen she got is pinched off (I was at home depot!). I did what you suggested to the owner and replaced the entire line. I used a braided stainless kit that was a whopping $3 more than the silly poly line! Why people, why?! Enjoyed seeing someone working other than me today! haha Thanks for the video brother. Cheers.

3:25 when he discovered how to extend the fill valve 😂😂🤣🤣

ALWAYS replace the supply line from the shut off to stainless if poly reinforced plastic. This part has the same water and water shock passing through the rebuild kit. Its great insurance at $9 and billed back to the customer. One water insurance claim is devastating can cancel your insurance. The existing gasket is the weakest point and conformed to the previous tower. Sleep better at night.

I love a good episode of "bring your camera to work day."

[bubbawatson]

Good for you bro! I do similar projects on my free time. Amazes me how many home owners can't comprehend a little common sense or even motivation. I do mostly Staining and that primarily only consists of motivation, 5% skill. People don't want to do shit anymore. Pay us baby. We HUNGRY! Keep it up man. I love it. No complaints. PS to the comment on not putting a new door key into the handle. They obviously didn't want it. We only do what we're told to do.

I started helping my grandpa at 14 when we decided to start posting handyman ads. He was bored at home so we started doing random jobs for fun. We started using hand saws to cut everything and now im 22 and weve had to build 2 sheds to house all our tools now. Its great knowing all the little details of a house and appreciating the work and knowing weve been able to provide quality work since many of our calls are referrals.

I have run a commercial handyman business for the past 12 years and have been doing for over 25 years. I do not step in a place without charging $100.00, if I work or not. I call it the $100.00 handshake. I take care of retail properties only. Very few of us exist. Most think they can do commercial but it takes time to really know buildings. Keep up the great work!

I’m looking to ramp up my own business in a few months. Many new homes are built with the cheapest materials and mechanicals the builder can find. It means there will always be work.

I never learned how to do really any handyman things around the house. So this was very educational, thank you.

3rd gen Carpenter myself Started my own handyman business so it’s good to see someone else putting up some videos on how we take care of things. Good work and keep on keeping on! 👍My wife has been telling me I should shoot videos doing the same thing but it’s a pain to try and record everything while you work in someone’s house. Especially while they watch. 😆
