If you're hiring a handyman for the first time — or just wondering how things work — you're not alone. At Mid-Mo Handy Solutions, I get a lot of the same questions from folks across Warrensburg, Knob Noster, Holden, and beyond. Here are some of the most common questions, answered honestly and simply.

🔧 1. What kind of work do you do?

I handle a range of home repair and improvement tasks — tile work, drywall, light fixture replacements, shelving installs, vanity swaps, and more. If it’s not in my wheelhouse (like major plumbing or HVAC), I’ll refer you to someone I trust.

🛠️ 2. Do you offer free estimates?

Yes — I offer free estimates for most projects. I’ll either drop by for a quick look or give you a ballpark based on your photos and description.

💡 3. Are you licensed and insured?

I operate as a fully insured handyman. I take safety and accountability seriously on every job.

🗓️ 4. How soon can you start?

I usually schedule 1–2 weeks out, depending on the season. For small jobs, I may be able to fit you in sooner.

💬 5. Do you work alone or have a crew?

I work solo on most jobs, which means you’ll always know exactly who’s doing the work. For larger tasks, I sometimes collaborate with a trusted local contractor.
