ugh. me and a friend just tried doing this in Manhattan. We made some signs and posted them all over the neighborhood. We were charging $50.
Then the next day we go to look for our signs and
1) most ripped down from old people that actually go around JUST TO RIP DOWN SIGNS cuz they think they are ugly

2) some OTHER peopel that do home repair ripped OUR signs down and put THEIR signs up! We checked out their prices, they go as high as $80!!!!

3) even after weeks of papering signs, we only got 3, yes THREE phone calls, and 2 of them we think were competitors checking us out.

So, if you already have a customer base, which it sounds like you do, go for it. If you have the time and energy, go for it too. you never know what kind of contacts you can make from going around and meeting people and repairing their PCs. (only good things!) I even read about this guy on another forum that was approached by ADRIANA SAGE to repair her pc. So he went over there and hung out with her all day, and now hes getting invited to all these porno parties and shit. no joke. I should be so lucky.
