Franchise Opportunity
Handyman Matters has been
recognized by INC Magazine as a Leading
Franchise Opportunity with our Recession
Resilient model. It is because our
services fall in the realm of necessity and are
requested on a regular basis. Most of our
owners’ biggest complaint is that they
didn't purchase a Handyman Matters franchise
years ago! Timing is everything, and you now may
be at a time where choosing a franchise is the
proper next step for you.
Handyman Matters has created
systems, operations and technology - including
proprietary software that systematically manages
time estimates, 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 true craftsmen.
We believe a company's brand elements are
critical to success. This is why we have devoted
the last decade to creating a brand that clearly
expresses quality, sophistication and commitment
to our customers. Our business is focused on
extraordinary customer service delivered in a
fair and professional manner.
We have received numerous awards and are proud of
our accomplishments. Awards include: Franchise
500 Rank in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010,
Low-Cost Franchises 2009, Franchise Business
Review Top 50 2008, Top 200 Franchises 2008, All
Business All Star Franchise 2009.
From small beginnings to industry leadership, Handyman
Matters remains focused on its founding
principles, embraces their customers as
“customers for life", and continually
challenges itself to improve system-wide services
and processes. Today, Handyman Matters has 134
franchisees in 34 states and 3 countries.
According to the United States Census Bureau, there
are now over 126 million housing units in the
United States, and of that number over 95 million
were built before 1990. Today, these
homes are nearing 20 years old and need necessary
repair and maintenance to maintain their value.
This means that these homeowners are going to
need the type of help Handyman Matters can
provide. The current housing market lends itself
to the home improvement industry. More and more
American homeowners are opting to stay in their
own home and invest in remodels and home upgrades
rather than putting their home on the market. The
maintenance and repairs are a necessity that
cannot be ignored by home owners and commercial
property owners alike. In the commercial and
industrial segment, there is a need for repair
and maintenance on a regular basis. Additionally,
projections show that there will be more retail
space available than is needed for the market.
What this means to the handyman industry is that
the number of new shopping centers built will be
drastically reduced and the existing space will
require repair and maintenance, as well as
considerable tenant finish.
All of these factors add up to a perfect
environment for Handyman Matters.
We are positioned as a leader in the home
services industry and are poised to grow with the
right people.
