About Our Services

What services does DTX Handyman Services offer?

We offer a comprehensive range of home repair, installation, and maintenance services across the DFW metroplex:

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. DTX Handyman Services is fully insured. We carry general liability insurance on every job, which protects you, your property, and our team. You should always verify insurance before letting any contractor into your home — and we're happy to provide proof of coverage upon request.

Are you veteran-owned?

Yes. DTX Handyman Services is proudly veteran-owned and woman-owned. We bring military values — precision, accountability, reliability, and discipline — to every job we take on. We hold ourselves to a higher standard because your home deserves nothing less.

Is there a fee for the estimate or service visit?

We charge a $29.99 service visit fee. Here's how it works: one of our professional technicians comes to your home, visually assesses the job, and provides you with clear, upfront pricing before any work begins. If you approve the work, that $29.99 is fully credited toward your project total — so it effectively costs nothing extra when you hire us.

The fee is only charged if no work is performed. It covers the technician's time and travel to your home, ensuring we can provide every customer with dedicated, professional attention.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?

Yes. Every job performed by DTX Handyman Services is covered by a 2-year workmanship warranty. If something we did isn't right within that period, we'll come back and make it right at no additional charge. We stand behind our work completely.

Pricing & Estimates

How does the $29.99 service visit fee work?

When you schedule a service visit, a professional DTX technician comes to your home to assess the job and provide firm, upfront pricing. This visit costs $29.99.

  • If you approve the work: The $29.99 is credited toward your project total — it costs you nothing extra.
  • If you don't proceed: You only pay the $29.99 service visit fee, which covers the technician's time and travel to your home.
  • Your estimate is valid for 30 days — so you can take time to decide without losing your quote.

This process ensures you get a professional, accurate price in person — not a rough phone guess — before any work begins.

Can you start work the same day as the estimate visit?

In most cases, yes. When our technician comes out to assess the job, we are typically prepared to start work the same day with your approval — so you don't need to wait for a second appointment. This means you get fast, same-day service with the peace of mind of upfront pricing.

How long is my estimate valid?

All quotes from DTX Handyman Services are valid for 30 days. There's no pressure to decide immediately. If you need to check your schedule, get a second opinion, or simply sleep on it, your price is locked in for a full month.

How much does a handyman cost in Dallas?

Handyman costs in DFW depend on the service and complexity. DTX Handyman Services quotes by the job — not by the hour — so you always know the total before work starts. Pricing is provided during the $29.99 on-site service visit (credited when you hire us). See our pricing page for typical ranges by service.

Do you charge by the hour or by the job?

We quote by the job, not by the hour. This means you know the total cost upfront, with no meter running. You won't be surprised by a bill that grew because the job took longer than expected.

Are there any hidden fees?

Never. The only fee beyond your project quote is the $29.99 service visit fee — and that is credited back when you approve the work. No surprise charges, no add-ons you didn't agree to, no fuel surcharges or admin fees.

Booking & Scheduling

How do I book a service?

Call or text us at 972-813-9474, or fill out our online contact form. We typically respond within a few hours during business hours. For fastest service, calling or texting directly is best.

How quickly can you get to my job?

We often have same-week availability, with most customers scheduled within 2–4 business days. Even better — in most cases, our technician can start the job the same day as the estimate visit, so you don't need to wait for a second appointment. For urgent needs, call us directly and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

Do you work on weekends?

Yes. We work Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 9 PM. We understand that weekday appointments don't always work for busy households, so Saturday availability is important to us.

Do I need to be home during the job?

Yes, we require someone 18 or older to be present at the start of the job to confirm the scope and answer any questions. You don't need to supervise us throughout — we'll let you know when we're done so you can inspect the work and sign off.

Quality & Guarantees

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. Every job performed by DTX Handyman Services is backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty. If something we did isn't right — a TV that isn't level, a drywall patch that cracks, a fixture that comes loose — we'll come back and fix it at no additional charge. Our reputation depends on every job being done right.

What if something gets damaged during the job?

We are fully insured, and in the unlikely event that something is damaged during our work, our general liability insurance covers it. This is one of the most important reasons to hire an insured handyman rather than the cheapest option you can find online.

Do you clean up after the job?

Absolutely. We treat your home with respect from the moment we arrive. We protect floors and furniture during work, and we leave the work area cleaner than we found it — no drywall dust, no packaging scraps, no tools left behind.

Do you bring your own tools and materials?

We bring all necessary tools to every job. For materials (drywall compound, joint tape, screws, anchors, mounting hardware), we either include common consumables in the quote or discuss sourcing them separately depending on the job scope. We'll always be clear about what's included in your quote.

Can you handle multiple repairs in one visit?

Yes, and we encourage it. Bundling multiple repairs into a single visit is more convenient for you and often more expense-effective. Many of our customers will have us mount a TV, hang some pictures, and assemble a piece of furniture all in the same appointment. Tell us everything you need done when you reach out and we'll provide a bundled quote.

Still Have Questions?

We're happy to answer any question before you book. Call or text us at 972-813-9474 or use our contact form. We typically respond within a few hours.
