Our Mission:

To deliver a superior Home Services platform for matching customers with certified local experts.

With that mission in mind, we sought to create a better customer experience by eliminating challenges typically found with other "on-demand" platforms:

1) Estimates - The irratating back-and-forth contractor quoting and negotiation process associated with other on-demand home services platforms such as thumbtack, home advisor, etc. So we eliminated it. How? Our services catalog is like no other; it enables you the customer to find your EXACT service at the EXACT price. No more estimates and no more guess work. We offer on-line quotes and up front pricing for all services offered by our platform.

2) Inexperienced and/or unqualified workers - Knowing if the pro coming to your home is indeed an expert in the service requested can be a challenge. So instead of offering up your request to anyone with a smart phone, we have partnered with only the best 5-star regional and national service providers in each category that we offer. We ensure that the local technician being assigned to your project is certified and most qualified to perform the work. That way we take the worry out of finding the right technician for the job for you. Guaranteed!

3) A horrible user experience - Other on-demand platforms are only giving their retail & brand partners a simple link back to their website so that online shoppers have to leave in order to get a quote or request service. Our headless options enable our partners to give their shoppers a superior shopping experience by giving them access to all of our robust features seamlessly right from their site. And customers don't have to search our site to request the service with our SMARTLinks (see our partner page for more details).

A Timeline of Our History

2015: In the beginning...

After starting their own local Assembly & Installation company in SoCal called MyChoreBuddy, our founders were given the opportunity to participate in a pilot Home Service program on Amazon called "Amazon Home Services" in the summer of 2015; initially this was launched with a small crew of just 5 technicians. It was a humble beginning but we quickly learned how to provide 5-star service to a very demanding customer base*.

2016-2018: Explosive Growth Phase

Amazon provided the company a wonderful platform for growth and an opportunity to perfect its trade. First it expanded to Northern California. Then Texas. Then beyond. The service rapidly took off such that it employed over 300 technicians across the country by the end of 2018. And we continued to provide 5-star service throughout the growth period.

2020: HandyBuddy Website Launch!

Seeing an opportunity to launch a more powerful service, the company embarked on an ambitious 2-year mission starting in 2019 to build a simple and intuitive platform for customers to get quotes and book a local certified pros outside of Amazon. Hence the idea for our own direct-to-consumer website was born. And then - Bam! The pandemic. Launch date was accelerated to June '20. And so the journey began...

As HandyBuddy enters its 5th full year of existance, we see a bright future ahead. Our brand partners are embracing the superior sticky user experience we enable. And customers love the simple easy-to-use experience. We continue to add more products/services as we move forward. So if you can't find the particular service you need but would like to work with us, please fill out a special request using the link at the bottom of every page. We look forward to serving you.
