Looks great, how much did you charge for this?
The Handyman Pricing Playbook
You show the graft. Your viewers keep asking what you charged. This turns that missing bit into a straight-talking PDF: how to price the job, protect the margin and quote with confidence.

Your viewers keep asking
Not made-up market research. These are the questions already sitting in Jordan’s comments — verbatim.
Looks great. Can you let us know prices you charge please
What solution you spray on it bro?
Useful on the next quote
A practical field guide, not a business textbook. Jordan’s methods and real job examples would turn each outline into the finished playbook.
Before you name a price
- 1.Lock the scopeWrite down what “done” includes — and what it doesn’t. Finish, disposal and making-good belong in the quote.
- 2.Count the invisible timeTravel, setup, collection, protection and cleanup are still part of the job, even when the tool isn’t running.
- 3.Price the awkward bitsTight access, parking, occupied rooms and unknown substrates add time or risk. Note them before giving a fixed figure.
- 4.Separate labour and materialsKnow both numbers internally. Add a sensible allowance for consumables and collection rather than swallowing them.
- 5.Send the quote in writingScope, price, assumptions and payment point — clear enough that both sides know exactly what was agreed.
Preview framework only. Final rates, examples and product choices would be built with Jordan.

An easy yes for the next generation of handymen
Low enough to buy without overthinking. Useful enough to keep open beside every first quote — with Jordan’s real examples doing the teaching.
Jordan brings the know-how. I turn it into the product.
The full version would use Jordan’s own pricing logic, trade-offs and job examples — keeping the straightforward, graft-first feel that makes the concept his.
