Handyman websites that stop the wrong calls

A driveway is a five-figure decision that someone thinks about for six weeks before they call anybody.

The handyman’s problem is not too few calls, it is the wrong ones. The site should be a filter as much as a shopfront.

Publishing the hourly rate and the minimum stops most of the time-wasting before it starts.

A plain list of what you do and what you don’t is worth more here than any amount of persuasive copy.

Worth adding: permits and prep. A driveway replacement in Los Angeles often needs a permit, and homeowners have no idea what that involves. A page that explains the process plainly — who pulls it, how long it adds, what it costs — removes the biggest unknown standing between someone and a signed quote.
