Frequently Asked Questions

One description, given once — over the phone or through the short form. It lands with a vetted pro whose territory covers your address, and the callback you get is that pro, quoting the job for free. Accepting, declining, or asking questions is entirely your move; the introduction carries no charge and no strings.

Completely. Callback and quote cost zero everywhere the county reaches, whether the address is a Peachtree Corners townhome or a farmhouse road past Dacula. Money changes hands only when you accept a number and the work happens — and it goes straight to the pro, never through us.

Neither. Peachtree Corners Handyman operates as a connection service, not a contractor — our part ends at the introduction; the pro quotes and performs the job. What we bring is the roster: knowing which capable hands actually pick up in which corner of a nearly-million-person county, and saying plainly when a job needs a license.

More than in most states, honestly. Georgia's licensing law applies to residential projects whose total value — labor plus materials — exceeds $2,500, and its repair exception keeps genuine repair work open at any price when the pro gives you written notice of non-licensure, brings no subcontractors, touches nothing structural, and pulls locally required permits. Splitting one project into small invoices to duck the line doesn't work, and we never pretend it does.

Georgia reserves those for its licensed trades at every price point — wiring, plumbing, gas, and heating-and-air carry no small-job exception at all. A dead outlet or a running toilet gets a licensed tradesperson, and when your request contains one, the licensed referral is the answer you'll hear. Any Georgia license verifies in seconds at the Secretary of State's lookup.

Repair means fixing, mending, maintaining, replacing, or restoring part of the house to good condition — a deck board, a fence post, a drywall patch, a re-caulked tub. Building or remodeling something — the new deck, the finished basement, any load-bearing change — is contractor territory, and anything structural is out of the repair lane at any price. When a job sits near the line, we say so before anyone quotes it.

Every inch of Gwinnett — sixteen cities and the unincorporated majority around them. Six places carry their own pages here: Peachtree Corners, Lawrenceville, Duluth, Norcross, Suwanee, and Snellville. Buford, Sugar Hill, Lilburn, Dacula, Grayson, Berkeley Lake, and every in-between address use the identical number with identical results.

Same-day is the norm, and the I-85 and GA-316 corridors often hear back within hours. The honest caveat: far-eastern addresses occasionally add a day, because matching you to hands that genuinely fit the job beats speed-dialing whoever happens to be idle.

All the time. Between-tenant punch lists across Gwinnett's rental stock are core work here — patching, painting, lock changes, hardware, detectors, and haul-out, sequenced against a showing date. Owners with multiple doors do best setting a standing arrangement before the summer leasing wave rather than scrambling inside it.

Those terms live with the pro quoting your job, so put the question to them directly — the good ones answer without flinching, and flinchers don't stay on our roster. Georgia adds its own backstop on licensed-contractor work: its courts won't even enforce an unlicensed contract, which is one more argument for routing jobs where they legally belong.

Please do — the form takes a description, and photos of the odd items sharpen the number considerably. Anything urgent should come by phone instead, where a human rather than a menu picks up.

A county this size drowns its best small-job pros under the advertising budgets of its loudest ones. Our entire occupation is tracking which hands pick up, arrive on time, and quote numbers their invoices later match — corner by corner, week after week — and borrowing that knowledge costs you nothing.
