How we collected handyman price data in Singapore
Every figure here is a rate that a handyman company printed itself, on its own website or price list. We did not request quotes or adjust any number. Each row in the tables links to the page it came from, so you can open it and read the conditions. The full approach is in how HomezyPro sources prices.
We sorted the lines into five jobs that come up in HDB flats, condos and landed homes alike: painting, furniture assembly, curtains and blinds, drilling and mounting, and door locks. Where a company prints several matching lines, the table keeps its lowest. For each job we give the number of companies and how many of them share one unit, because a per-hour rate and a per-job rate cannot sit in one range. Where the units are too mixed, we list the lines instead.
Painting
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published home painting rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published home painting rates from 6 companies run from S$50 to S$250 per job (middle rate S$150), for anything from one wall to a whole flat, so check what each price covers. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average. Each figure is one company's own advertised rate with its conditions, not a quote.

Painting has the widest spread in this study. 8 companies publish a home painting line, and 6 of them price it per job. Their lowest published rates run from S$50 to S$250 per job, and S$150 is the middle company's rate.
The service names explain the gap. "Major Paint Peeling + Putty" (S$50 to S$300 per job) is a repair, while "One-room painting" starts from S$250 per job. Two lines use other units: "HDB & condo painting - First Hour" at S$60 to S$80 per hour, and "Painting package, 2-room" at S$500 to S$900 per package.

Furniture assembly

Published furniture assembly rates
See 4 published furniture assembly rates and sources
| Company | Service as listed | Rate | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arctic Breeze Engineering | Furniture assembly, small items (chairs, side tables, simple shelving) | From S$40 | handyman.sg |
| SG QuickFix | Furniture Assembly | From S$40 per job | sgquickfix.com |
| Wefix4U | Furniture assembly | From S$40 per piece | wefix4u.sg |
| Ezycontractors.co | Storage Furniture Assembly | From S$180 per job | ezycontractors.co |
4 companies publish a furniture assembly line, but they use different units and scopes, so there is no single range and no middle figure. Here are the lines as printed:
- "Furniture assembly, small items (chairs, side tables, simple shelving)": From S$40, printed without a unit.
- "Furniture Assembly": From S$40 per job.
- "Furniture assembly": From S$40 per piece.
- "Storage Furniture Assembly": From S$180 per job.
Three lines open at the same figure, yet they can lead to very different bills. A per-piece rate climbs with every stool and bedside table in a flat-pack delivery, while a per-job rate may cover several items. Count your boxes before you compare any furniture assembly price. Our furniture assembly cost guide has more on planning the job.

FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY

This is the smallest group. 3 companies publish a curtain and blind installation line, and all 3 price it per job. Their lowest published rates run from S$50 to S$80 per job, and S$50 is the middle company's rate. Two lines open at S$50 per job, and one "Curtain rod installation" line starts from S$80 per job.
Each rate covers one curtain rod or blind. A condo unit with a living room, three bedrooms and a study has several windows, so ask how the price changes for each extra rod. Our curtain installation cost guide covers the job in more detail.

Published drilling and mounting rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published drilling and mounting rates from 3 companies run from S$40 to S$120 per job (middle rate S$60), to mount one item. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average.

"TV, mirror, shelf, picture or cabinet mounting" starts from S$40 per job. An installation line naming TV brackets, mirrors, shelves, lights and curtain hardware starts from S$60 per job, and "TV wall mounting" starts from S$120 per job. The fourth company prints "Drilling" from S$10 per hole, so a wall of photo frames is priced hole by hole. If a television is your main item, see our TV mounting cost guide.

Reading handyman rates
Handyman rates in Singapore look tidy on a price list, but the same figure can buy very different amounts of work.
| Job | Companies | Units printed |
|---|---|---|
| Painting | 8 | Per job, per hour, per package |
| Furniture assembly | 4 | Per job, per piece, no unit |
| Curtains and blinds | 3 | Per job |
| Drilling and mounting | 4 | Per job, per hole |
| Door locks | 5 | Per job, no unit |
- Scope. One wall or a whole flat, one rod or every window.
- Unit. A per-hour or per-piece rate grows with the work, while a per-job rate applies to the scope it names.
- Minimum charge. A from-price is the lowest figure the company prints, so ask whether a short visit is billed at that figure.
- Extras. Ask about parts, brackets, paint and disposal.
To turn a list of tasks into a rough range, try the handyman cost estimator.
Questions
Do handymen charge a minimum fee?
Some do, so ask before you book. A from-price is the lowest figure a company prints for a job, and one painting line is billed for the first hour. If you have a few small tasks, such as a loose handle and a shelf, ask whether they can share one visit.
Is handyman work priced per hour or per job?
Mostly per job. Most lines in this study use a per-job unit, but one painting line is per hour, one drilling line per hole, one furniture line per piece and one painting line per package. Rates in different units cannot be lined up directly, so ask for a price for your whole task.
Why do painting prices vary so much?
Because the lines describe different jobs. They range from peeling and putty repair to one-room painting, a first-hour rate and a 2-room package. A touch-up on one wall and a full repaint of a condo unit both count as painting, so the scope behind each rate drives the gap.
Are materials included?
Not always, so ask before you book. One painting line names a paint type and one door line excludes the lock, which shows how much the wording matters. Ask whether paint, wall plugs, brackets, curtain rods or a new lock are in the price, or whether you buy them yourself.
How many companies did you look at?
Between 3 and 8 for each job. 8 companies publish a painting line, 5 a door and lock line, 4 a furniture assembly line, 4 a drilling and mounting line and 3 a curtain and blind installation line. Each table row shows one company's lowest matching rate, linked to its source.
How often is this data updated?
The rates are refreshed from the companies' own published pages, so each table follows what the companies print. A company can change its price list at any time, so open the source link in the table and confirm the rate with the company before you book.
Prices come only from the sourced company rates in the HomezyPro directory, shown with each company and its source.
