Industry
Homeowners search "handyman near me" 237,000+ times a month. The demand is there. Most handyperson sites just aren't built to turn that search volume into booked jobs.
Services
The full set of services we build for handyperson businesses. Every engagement starts with a conversation about what your business actually needs.
We design and build WordPress websites organized around how customers actually search: by task, not by category. Background check badges, licensing information, before-and-after galleries, and frictionless online booking are built in from the start, with direct integrations into Jobber, Housecall Pro, Workiz, and FieldPulse.
"Handyman near me" is searched more than 237,000 times a month. We build task-level landing pages, location pages for every neighborhood you serve, and content that answers the questions homeowners ask before they decide who to call, structured for AI search visibility too, not just Google.
The average CPC for handyperson search ads runs around $7.10, with specialty terms like electrical handyman or roof repair pushing to $10-$18. We build tight geographic targeting and task-specific ad groups and landing pages designed to convert at 6-8%, not a generic homepage.
A handyperson site that goes down on a Saturday morning, when homeowners are searching for weekend repairs, is a direct revenue loss. We handle core and plugin updates, daily backups, security scanning, and booking integration checks so your site's still working when the calls come in.

Overview
Homeowners deciding to let someone into their home aren't just comparing prices. They're evaluating trust, and they're doing it fast.
A website that looks dated, buries services, or makes people hunt for a phone number loses visitors before they become leads. The window between search and booking is often under a minute.
Then there's the breadth problem. A typical handyperson business offers 20 to 40 different services.
Listing them all in a wall of text isn't a strategy, and neither is hiding them behind a single "Services" dropdown. Organizing offerings so a homeowner finds what they need in seconds is a design challenge generic builders can't solve.
We've been building websites since 2002 and we manage 800+ WordPress sites today. We understand the trust signals, the task-level search behavior, and the scheduling integrations that actually move a homeowner from search to booked job. We apply that to every handyperson site we build.

Who we serve
Why us
You talk to a senior practitioner from day one, not a junior account coordinator routing messages. Strategy, scope, and the hard calls come from someone who's actually done the work. That matters when you need a new service page live before a seasonal demand shift or a booking form fixed before a weekend rush.
Every handyperson site runs through a structured process and closes with a 75+ point quality audit before launch. No site ships without it. That includes verifying booking integration, gallery performance, form functionality, and mobile speed.
After launch, you get ongoing care plans and real support whenever you need us. The same team that built your handyperson website is still the team answering your tickets a year later. You don't get handed off to a support tier that's never seen your project.
We don't split attention across five platforms. Depth beats breadth, and we've seen nearly every scenario a WordPress site can throw at us, from complex booking integrations to task-level page architecture to multi-technician scheduling.
Why us
In-home service businesses live and die by trust signals. We know where to place licensing badges, background check verifications, and review counts on a handyperson site to reduce the hesitation homeowners feel before booking a stranger.
Homeowners don't search for "handyman services." They search for "drywall repair near me" or "ceiling fan installation." We build pages around those specific searches, not generic service buckets.
Jobber, Housecall Pro, Workiz, and FieldPulse integrations are in our wheelhouse. Your website feeds your scheduling system directly, so no lead falls through a gap between a web form and your calendar.
We bring more than two decades of web design and digital marketing experience to every handyperson engagement. That shows in how we structure projects, manage launches, and support clients after go-live, not just on a slide deck.

Good to know
Scope and speed. A handyperson business offers many smaller services and needs customers to find the right one fast.
General contractor sites can lean on project portfolios and long scope descriptions. Handyperson sites need fast task navigation, immediate trust signals, and a booking path that works in under 60 seconds.
Lead aggregators like Thumbtack and Angi share your leads with multiple competitors and charge for every one. SEO builds a direct channel where homeowners find you specifically and contact you exclusively. The economics shift significantly once organic traffic starts converting. Most businesses we work with treat aggregators as a short-term bridge while SEO builds.
We regularly integrate handyperson websites with Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, Workiz, and FieldPulse for scheduling and CRM. We also set up Google Local Services Ads profile connections and HubSpot for follow-up automation. The goal is a site that feeds your operations, not one that sits in isolation.
Most handyperson websites generally break into three scopes: $2,000-$5,000 for smaller, focused sites; $5,000-$8,000 for a well-built site with the integrations most businesses need; and $8,000-$12,000 for larger builds with more pages, deeper integrations, or multi-location structure. Multi-location or enterprise-scale builds run higher. We scope everything in a free consultation.
Local SEO for handyperson services typically shows meaningful movement in 3 to 6 months. Task-specific pages and Google Business Profile improvements often move faster. We set clear expectations at the start of every engagement so you know what to track and when.
Yes, and for most handyperson businesses it makes sense to do so. PPC generates leads immediately while SEO builds long-term organic visibility. The two channels inform each other: PPC data shows which services convert best, and that shapes what SEO content to prioritize.
Both. A solo handyperson with a well-built website and local SEO can compete directly with larger operations. We've worked with owner-operators launching their first site and with multi-tech businesses building out multi-location marketing. The scope of the work scales with you.
We focus entirely on WordPress and have managed 800+ WordPress sites. We're not splitting attention between five platforms or treating your project as a learning exercise. In practice, that means faster delivery, fewer surprises, and a team that already knows what handyperson businesses need from day one.
