Websites for handymen
A website for your handyman business, done for you
A handyman’s work is a long list of small jobs: the sticking door, the shelf, the patch in the drywall. People search for the job, not the trade, so your site needs to name the jobs you take, show where you work, and make you easy to reach.
A sample we built: Thimblewick Home Repair
Sample · fictional business
The Thimblewick sample turns its services into a ticked-off to-do list beside the opening photo, and keeps a call button pinned to the bottom of the screen on phones. Thimblewick Home Repair is a fictional business in the made-up town of Wrenford, with a (555) phone number and an .example address. We built it to show our work. It isn’t a customer.
What a handyman’s site needs
Every job you take, by name
People often look for the thing that’s broken rather than for a trade. List the jobs you take in the words people use, so the site matches what they’re trying to get done.
The jobs you don’t take
Saying what’s outside your scope, such as electrical or plumbing work, saves you calls you’d turn down anyway.
Photos of jobs you’ve finished
A rehung door or a clean drywall patch is small, but a photo of it shows the care you take. A preview starts with stock-style images made with AI; once you keep the site, send pictures from your phone and we add them.
Where you’ll go
A clear service area, so the caller across town knows before they ring whether you’ll make the trip.
Easy to reach between jobs
You’re up a ladder half the day. A phone number at the top and an email address beside it let people reach you whichever way suits them.
Reviews from people who let you in
Most handyman work starts with trusting a stranger in the house. Your Google reviews show on the site live, as written, so new customers hear from earlier ones.
How we’d build yours
Your own website usually says most of it already: the jobs you take, the area you cover, the hours you keep. We turn that into a full site, each job in plain words, built for phones first.
If your site doesn’t mention a job, we don’t offer it, and if it doesn’t give your rates, we don’t guess them. The few details we can’t confirm from a public source wait for your yes before launch.
Once it’s live, changes are a text away: a new job you’ve started taking, a week off, a better photo.

Questions handymen ask
- I don’t have a contractor license. Can I still have a website?
- Yes. If you work in California without a license, the Contractors State License Board limits you to jobs under $1,000 that need no permit and no employees, and your advertising has to say you’re not licensed, so tell us and your site will say it. If you do hold a license, its number goes on the site instead.
- Can I show my rates?
- Yes, if you want them shown. Tell us your rates, or we use what your current site already says, and we change them whenever you ask.
- Do I need to send anything to get started?
- No. A preview is built from what’s already public about your business. If you keep it, you confirm the phone and email where leads should go, your domain and your logo before it goes live.
See your own site before you decide
Tell us your business name, phone and email. We review every request, and if we can build a preview from what’s already public about your business, we email you the private link. Looking costs nothing.
