THE OLD WAY

Everyday repairs priced like the wild west

A faucet here, a turn punch-list there, each one a separate quote, a separate negotiation, a separate line to explain to an owner. The hardest part is not the work, it is the number. The pain is rarely that a price is high. It is that no one can tell whether it is fair price and pricing lacks consistency.

Quotes that swing

The same repair comes back at two different numbers depending on who shows up and how the day goes.

Owners who question every invoice

When a repair cost lands as a surprise, the conversation turns into a defense instead of an update.

No way to know what is fair

Without a set price to anchor to, every quote is a judgment call, and trust erodes one invoice at a time.

HOW FLAT-RATE HANDYMAN WORKS

One catalog of handyman jobs with prices set in advance.

Flat-Rate Handyman prices each repair from a catalog, agreed before a Pro is dispatched. The price holds whether the job takes forty minutes or all afternoon, so the invoice always matches the estimate. You get a number you can give an owner the same day, and an everyday-maintenance line item you can finally plan around.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Flat-Rate Handyman Questions

What counts as a Flat-Rate Handyman job?

The recurring small-to-mid repairs and turn work across a portfolio: the everyday fixes, not the major system replacements (those are their own Flat-Rate categories). If it is a common repair, it is likely already priced in the catalog.

What happens if a repair is not in the catalog?

It still gets done, just handled and priced separately. With a 600+ job catalog, most of a typical portfolio’s everyday work falls inside it.

Does a flat price cost more on a quick, ten-minute fix?

On any single job it can land either way. What you are buying is a known number across every repair and no incentive for a job to drag.

Do I have to route all my repairs through Flat-Rate Handyman?

No. Use it where predictable pricing helps most. Most teams start with the high-volume everyday repairs where the owner conversation matters.
