Cost to put up a rotary washing line

Starting a handyman business
I want to start my own handyman business and I'm looking for a bit of advice on how to price jobs. Should I work out an hourly rate and charge that regardless of the job. Or should I charge more for complex/skilled jobs? I have some experience and basic qualifications for things such as plumbing, so I don't want to sell myself short but I don't want to price myself out either.

Heavy Item on Plaster Board Walls
I have hooded dryers that need to go onto a salon wall. The salon walls are plasterboard as it is a small salon suite and the dryers are heavy. Are there any recommendations for something that will help make it more secure such as bolts etc that I can purchase. As the salon is very small (its the size of a small suite 2.7m x 3 m) I have no option but to mount the dryers on the wall as it will take up too much space as standing dryers. Thanks in advance.

Strange smell in gutters

I have a 55in Oled TV I'm wanting to mount on my wall. The mounted wall is a plasterboard wall. The TV weight according to specs listed on Samsung website is 16kg and the mounted bracket is 2kg. Would a plasterboard wall be strong enough to hold this type of weight if studs can't be located?
