Before you hire: what to ask

  • What is the total price for the whole job, materials included?
  • Are you licensed, or working under Utah's handyman exemption?
  • Do you carry liability insurance?
  • Who pulls permits if the job needs one?

Offering handyman? Put this in your post

  • List the jobs you take and the ones you send to a licensed trade.
  • Say how you price: by job or by hour, materials included or not.
  • Say whether you carry liability insurance.
The rule in Utah. Utah lets unlicensed handymen take small jobs under a dollar limit set in state law, with an insurance filing above a lower threshold; electrical, plumbing and other licensed trades always need a licensed contractor. Our handyman guide explains the current limits.

What to know in Utah Valley

  • Plumbing, electrical, gas appliances, HVAC, fire sprinklers and radon mitigation always need a licensed contractor in Utah, whatever the price.
  • Splitting a big job into small ones to stay under the handyman limit is not allowed; the limit applies to the whole project.
  • DOPL's free license lookup shows a contractor's classification, status and expiration date.
