Let’s be honest—general contracting is a tough business. Margins are tight, and every job feels like a constant battle of estimates, negotiations, and keeping projects on schedule. When the busy season hits, you're scrambling for workers.

‍

When it slows down, you’re wondering how to keep cash flowing. Sound familiar?

‍

On top of that, hiring skilled labor isn’t getting any cheaper. Finding reliable workers is like searching for gold, and even when you do, you have to pay top dollar to keep them.

‍

Meanwhile, clients expect premium work at bargain prices, and profits keep getting squeezed.

‍

And then there’s the seasonality. When work dries up in the off-season, so does your income. You’re stuck in a cycle that never really lets you get ahead.

‍

The Smart Way to Grow

‍

Now imagine a different reality. Instead of fighting for the next big remodel or commercial job, you have steady, year-round work coming in. The same homeowners and property managers you already work with are calling you for small repairs and maintenance, not just big projects.

‍

You don’t have to chase leads—they already trust you.

‍

Your margins are better, too. Handyman work doesn’t require the heavy materials and expensive labor that big contracting jobs do. No waiting on permits, no massive payroll to manage, no slow seasons.

‍

Just steady, profitable jobs that fill the gaps between your larger projects.

‍

Instead of worrying about what comes next, you’re running a business that pays you consistently.

‍

Handyman Demand is Booming

‍

The handyman industry isn’t just steady—it’s growing fast. With demand set to increase 16.5% annually through 2033, this isn’t just a side business, it’s a serious opportunity. Homeowners and landlords need reliable pros, and if you get in now, you can lock in customers for years to come.

‍

‍

‍

Here's why so many Americans need your handiwork:

‍

Baby Boomers Can’t DIY Forever

‍

The generation that built their own decks and fixed their own sinks is slowing down. Every day, 14,000 more Americans hit retirement age, and many are looking for someone they can trust to handle home repairs.

‍

If you’re running a handyman business, this is your chance to become their go-to service provider—keeping them safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their homes.

‍

The Rental Boom Means Property Managers Need Fix-It Pros

‍

Rental properties are popping up everywhere, and every landlord has the same problem—keeping their units in shape. Property managers don’t have time to chase down unreliable contractors for small jobs.

‍

They need a trusted handyman they can call for quick, quality repairs.

‍

If you can be that person, you’ll have steady, repeat business that keeps the cash flowing.

‍

Millennials Don’t Fix—They Hire. Be Their Go-To.

‍

Millennial homeowners grew up with YouTube tutorials, but most aren’t interested in DIY. They’d rather pay a professional than spend their weekends fixing leaky faucets and squeaky doors. If you own a handyman business, that’s great news.

‍

They want convenience, reliability, and quick service—and if you can provide it, you’ll have customers for life.

‍

Why Handyman Work and Contracting Go Hand-in-Hand

‍

Think about the houses you’re already working on. When you finish a remodel, what happens next? That homeowner will eventually need smaller fixes—things too small to hire a contractor for, but too much of a hassle to do themselves.

‍

Or consider rental property owners. These people don’t need a full-scale contractor every week, but they do need someone to handle leaky faucets, drywall patches, and small repairs between tenants.

‍

If you’re already trusted for bigger projects, why wouldn’t they call you for the little stuff, too?

‍

And the benefits just keeping coming:

‍

Less Overhead, More Profit

‍

The best part? Running a handyman franchise doesn’t require a massive investment or a fleet of workers. Unlike large contracting jobs, handyman work can often be handled with a small crew or even just one skilled worker.

‍

You’re not dealing with massive material costs or waiting months for client payments. You’re getting paid faster, with fewer headaches.

‍

And since you’re already working in the housing market, you don’t have to build a new client base from scratch. You’re just adding another service that makes it easier for customers to keep calling you back.

‍

Handyman Work Isn't Seasonal - It's Constant

‍

General contracting has an off-season. Handyman work doesn’t. Pipes burst, decks need fixing, and appliances break year-round. When big contracting jobs slow down, handyman work keeps going.

‍

And if you’ve ever relied on subcontractors, you know the pain of losing good workers when things slow down. With a handyman franchise in place, you can keep your best employees busy, paid, and loyal to your business instead of looking elsewhere for work.

‍

Franchising Means a Proven System, Not Guesswork

‍

You could try adding handyman services on your own, but that means figuring out the marketing, pricing, branding, and operations from scratch. That’s a lot of trial and error, and mistakes cost time and money.

‍

A handyman franchise gives you a proven system. You get the training, the brand recognition, and the playbook to start making money faster.

‍

Instead of fumbling through setup, you’re launching with a clear path to success.

‍

State Requirements Limit New Entrants

‍

If you live in California or Nevada, you have an even bigger moat to your business. Both states require a general contractor license to run a handyman business. So if you have a license, the number of potential competitors is heavily restricted.

‍

This makes a handyman franchise an even more lucrative and attractive addition to a contracting business. When not just anybody who owns a screwdriver can be a competitor, your services are even more valuable.

‍

Not Every Franchise is Worthwhile, However

‍

Not all handyman franchises are created equal. Some are great fits for general contractors looking to expand, while others are built for corporate escapees with no experience in the trades.

‍

You need one that complements the business you already have.

‍

That’s what we do. We don’t push you toward the wrong franchise just to make a sale. We find the right match based on your experience, market, and business goals. No nonsense, just smart moves.

‍

A Massive, Temporary Opportunity

‍

Handyman demand is growing fast. More homeowners want quick, reliable fixes. More rental property owners need maintenance pros they can trust. And more general contractors are catching on to the fact that this is the easiest way to add steady income to their business.

‍

The question isn’t whether handyman services are in demand—the question is whether you’re going to step in and profit from it, or let someone else take those jobs.
