Handyman gives generic receipt for house rehab

Handyman gives generic receipt for house rehab

Tampa, FL · Member since 2016 · 55 posts · 4 votes

I had a house rehabbed [mostly small repairs paint, electrical, plumbing, carpets, vinylflooring, some windows]. The grand total was around 10,000.  However my handyman gave a single sheet of paper that which listed the tasks performed, but gives me no idea how to break this down for tax purposes, more specifically capital improvements/repair/labor. He often loses receipts and is very poor with paperwork. If I can provide a template for him to fill out, he will gladly do it. Where can I find such a template?

    As a side note, is he licensed and insured? Most professionals that do this for a living, have the wherewithal to do what you are asking 

    He could simple Google anything to get something to provide you a more professional and detailed receipt

     True, get what you pay for, buy only what you can afford
