About
A partnership that has tremendous name recognition, trust and power
During its 22-year history, formerly Handyman Matters has been consistently been voted the top Handyman Franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine.
Since being acquired by Ace Hardware in September of 2019, we are pairing our deep experience in this booming industry with a recognizable home brand name. Now is the time to get in on the ground floor of this growing franchise opportunity and utilize your prior business experience with our own methods.
When you are evaluating different franchise opportunities, the trendy, brick and mortar opportunities get a lot of attention. We get that. But many have high-risk profiles. Trends come in and trends go out. The consumer is fickle.
Your performance, when a trend changes, is downright terrifying.
Day in the Life of a Franchisee
Our business is really defined by three main roles or positions in the company: General Manager (franchise owner initially), TEAM Coordinator and Craftspeople.
The General Manager’s role has three main focus areas.
- First, hire, train, mentor and inspire your employees. The TEAM Coordinator and the Craftspeople who work in your business are your employees. Together you will establish the culture of your organization to fit your business vision.
- Secondly, be a fiscal manager of your business. As an independently owned business, we provide the resources, tools, training and support, but the profitable running of your business will always be your responsibility.
- Finally, the networking and integration with your community is a main priority. Getting out to attend meetings, being a member of the local Chamber of Commerce, speaking in your community, meeting with commercial businesses, joining the local Rotary – all of those tasks will help you build a community-based business that is respected and prestigious.
Training and Support
With over two decades of experience behind us and an actual operating unit in the same training building, we have optimized the way we teach and train new owners to start their businesses quickly and correctly. You get everything you need with the know-how from 20 years of experience, to quickly tap into this runaway growth marketplace:
- Staffing and training the right people
- Proprietary systems and processes
- Instant estimate (a proprietary algorithm that captures 20 years of experience)
- Technology-driven efficiencies
- Marketing at the ready

We are looking for candidates who want to make a positive difference in the lives of skilled craftsmen and their community. We want candidates who are willing to follow a 22 year old model and are passionate about starting their own business.
