Handymen handle small repairs, assembly, mounting, patching, and general maintenance, but licensed trades like major electrical, plumbing, or gas work should go to a licensed pro. The exact line depends on your state's threshold.
For small, general tasks a handyman is usually cheaper and faster than a specialized contractor. For code-regulated or complex work, a licensed specialist is the safer and often required choice.
