What's an acceptable hourly rate for a handyman to fix nail pops?

Yep, this is the problem. Fixing nail pops is quick and easy, which means it’s not worth the time of a good handy person unless it’s either packaged with something else or they change a significant minimum to come out.

Also, we have no way to give you a good estimate because we don’t know how many mail pops you are talking about.

Its not that quick if it requires a few coats of mud than paint.

Until the nail pops back out a few months later

I have never had good luck finding people willing to do drywall work. As a result I’ve gotten good at it and I’m teaching my oldest son (who now has a project since he jumped and out his head through our ceiling). The issue with dry wall is it’s at a bare minimum a 2 visit job. Nobody wants that hassle when thetr is so much demand for work out there.

+1 and unless OP has level 1 or 2 finish it will be noticeable.
