Handyman Service: How do you handle customers who are fond of supervising you while you work for them.

[Min George]

As a handyman or a person that handles repairs of home stuff, there are some customers that they go to work for and the person keeps supervising them while they work.

How would you advise a handyman or home repairs person to handle such customers?

I would politely tell them to allow me do the job they contracted me to do. They should come and checkout everything after I am done with the job.

It's best to politely tell them that they should allow you do your job, or if you have the patience do it their way and let them see how it works out.

I wouldn't mind provided you don't disturb me too much. You just come in where you should and that's it

 

[King Belieal]

I am very short tempered with that kind of misbehavior from a client. I would just tell him that he is disturbing me from doing my job.

 

[Augusta]

Lol, a lot of people don't like that but you need to do it to some boundaries. Just do it with caution

 

[Trush Jodie]

It is simple I set boundaries. If you're a handyman going for repairs in someone's house, once you enter the premises let there be a standing order that nobody should cross a particular boundary that will enable you focus on your job and deliver it appropriately.

 

[Augusta]

Well they are situations that you can't stop them. You just have to hope that they like the job and allow you use your discretion
