Handyman Estimate Calculator

This pricing tool helps you figure out what to charge for handyman jobs without forgetting the costs that usually eat your margin. Enter your labor costs, materials, overhead, and target profit to generate a more reliable estimate for the customer.

If you also want to double-check your markup after pricing the job, run the numbers through our markup calculator or compare your margin with the profit margin calculator. If the next step is planning whether enough work is coming in, check the revenue forecast calculator.

Whether you are a solo handyman, part of a contracting crew, or managing projects for a larger company, this tool works for you. It is especially useful when you are trying to turn a rough scope into a fast estimate before building the final proposal.

If you need a customer-facing document after you price the work, pair this with our handyman estimate template or create polished proposals with Dave's estimate features.

Gather labor cost, materials, monthly business overhead, and a profit target in dollars. Put truck, insurance, software, and other ongoing business costs in overhead. Leave out labor and materials already entered elsewhere. Use billable job hours, not every hour spent working, as the monthly divisor. For crews, use job-duration hours consistently; worker count already multiplies labor.
