We fill the gap between General Contractors and Do- It-Yourselfers. Our multi-skilled team is the answer to 'Who Do We Call'? Our franchise concept is a nationally recognized concept that serves the repair, restoration and maintenance needs of both residential and business customers. Business specializes in small – to medium – size jobs covering a wide range of “around-the-house” handyman tasks, repairs, installations and maintenance found on everyone’s to-do lists. By building a base of happy repair customers and selling more to them this business enjoys a high repeat business.

Market Position: This business has taken the traditional handyman business and created a tech-savvy handyman service that offers one-stop shopping for both consumers and businesses, under the trusted 100-hundred-year-old Ace Hardware brand! Being a part of the Ace Hardware family instills client reassurance that the same service experience you have in the store is the same service experience you will have in your home. We do benefit from lead generation through Ace Hardware store locations and Ace Reward Members. This business has developed systems, documented operations and proprietary technology – including proprietary software that systematically manages estimating, scheduling, marketing, dispatching and numerous other areas – to create a “retailing of services” concept that combines a highly-structured business management model with the hands-on talent of Craftsmen.

While the handyman industry remains highly fragmented with many “mom and pop” operators, this business’ Craftsmen are employees of local franchise owners and have undergone extensive background checks, adhere to a dress code and call customers the evening prior to a job to verify the time of arrival. A consistent Service Path experience and embracing the ACE Way values is what sets us apart.

Customer contact information stored in a business database. Business has a great reputation (4.9*s on Google) and an established website with 1st page Google search rankings.
