Small Projects and Repairs Handyman Business
Business Description
Picture yourself running a handyman business that's found the sweet spot every contractor dreams of. You're not dealing with emergency calls at 2 AM or juggling massive remodeling projects with endless headaches. Instead, you're handling exactly what homeowners need most - those important projects that are too big for a quick DIY fix but don't require a full general contractor.
You'll genuinely love the variety this work brings. One day you might be installing gorgeous accent walls, the next helping a family repair their fence or refreshing their deck. Your customers have come to trust you for drywall patches, trim work, fixture updates, and small exterior projects. They keep coming back because you handle more than just one-time visits - you become their reliable go-to person.
What makes this opportunity truly special? Your technicians are cross-trained across multiple trades. Projects flow smoothly without waiting around for different specialists, and you're maximizing productivity every single day. The current owner built a smart scheduling system where smaller repairs perfectly fill gaps between larger projects, keeping everyone busy and profitable.
As the new owner, you'll focus on estimating and material selection while your skilled team handles the day-to-day work. You get to oversee the more interesting jobs without doing all the heavy lifting yourself. It's the perfect balance for someone who wants to stay involved but also wants a life outside work.
This business positions you perfectly between simple repairs and full remodeling - exactly where many experienced contractors want to be. The customer base is already established, the systems are proven, and you'll find this work genuinely rewarding. You're helping people improve their homes without the stress of major construction projects.
Located in Jacksonville's Baker County area, this established operation has built solid relationships and proven systems that work. You're stepping into something real, with real customers who need what you offer.
