How it works

How to book a handyman near me: post the list, compare bids, choose.

Post your job free. When you book, your payment is held in escrow before work starts. You approve its release after the work is finished.

Watch HomeFix in action

Post a list, compare the bids, approve the finished work — 47 seconds, start to finish.

1
Free to post · no card needed

Post the whole list, with photos.

Write every item down — the sticking door, the shelf, the TV — add a photo or two and your ZIP. Handymen near you are notified. They see the list and the photos, not your phone number.

Compare bids and choose

Choose your pro and pay into escrow.

Compare bids and ask questions in the app. When you book, your payment is held securely in escrow before work starts. The pro receives it after you approve the finished work. Posting and comparing bids is free — a small service fee applies when you book, covering escrow payment protection. You see the total before you confirm.

When it’s done

Review the work and approve payment release.

Check the finished work and the pro’s completion photos. Then approve the invoice to release payment to the pro. Your bid covers the job you described. If an item turns out bigger than the photo showed, agree on the added work and price in chat. The changes appear on the final invoice, which you approve before payment is released.

Choosing your handyman

Ask your handyman about the list, materials and timing in chat.

Every bid comes with an in-app chat. Five things worth settling there before you book.

What ID-verified means: Stripe Identity — every pro uploads a government ID and personal details, verified before a pro can be paid. AllBetter verifies identity, not trade licenses; ask for those in chat.

  • Is the price for the whole list, or per item?
  • Are materials included, or should I have them ready?
  • Which items need a licensed plumber or electrician instead of you?
  • When can you start, and can the whole list be done in one visit?
  • If an item turns out bigger than the photo showed, how will we agree the added work?

Handyman booking questions, answered.

The questions people ask before their first handyman list on AllBetter.

What does it cost to book a handyman near me on AllBetter?
Posting your list and comparing bids is free. A small service fee applies when you book, covering escrow payment protection; you see the total before you confirm. The handyman’s price is the bid you accept for the posted list — AllBetter is the handyman app where pros price the job, not the hour.
When do I pay?
Posting and comparing bids is free. When you book, you pay into escrow before work starts. Your payment stays there until you approve the finished work and release it to the pro.
How much does a handyman cost?
Handymen who bid on AllBetter price the list, not the hour. The indicative ranges on each task card above come from our cost guides; the bids you receive price your posted list. Our handyman hourly rates guide explains how hourly quotes compare.
How fast can I get a handyman?
In top metros, the median first bid lands in about 10 minutes; timing varies by trade and market. You arrange the visit directly with your handyman in the app chat.
Can one handyman do my whole list?
That is the point of posting it as one job: one bid for the whole list, and you settle in chat whether it fits one visit. Anything that needs a license — a water heater, a gas line, a new circuit — belongs on the plumber or electrician page instead, and a good handyman will tell you so in chat.
What if an item turns out bigger than the photo showed?
Your bid covers the job you described. If the handyman finds more once the wall is open, agree on the added work and price in chat. The changes appear on the final invoice, which you approve before payment is released.
Who sees my phone number?
Handymen don’t see your phone number before you book. They bid and ask questions through the app; only the handyman you book gets your contact details, and payment stays in escrow until you approve the finished work.
