How It Works

Photo the Problems. Post the List. Get Real Bids. Done.

From a sticking door to a full bathroom punch list — here's how AllBetter replaces the hourly-billing guesswork.

1

Show Us What's Broken

Take a photo of the loose handle, drywall hole, leaky faucet, or unassembled IKEA box. Describe the scope in your own words. Identity-verified handymen see the actual job and send accurate fixed-price bids — no "I'll need to see it first" stalling.

Compare Fixed-Price Bids

Review bids side by side: fixed total, identity verification status, completed jobs, and ratings. Use the in-app chat to ask about license (where required), insurance, materials, and timing — all without exchanging your phone number.

Pay When You Approve the Work

Your money sits in escrow while the handyman works. Check the finished list, tap Approve — only then is he paid. No hourly meter, no deposits. Posting and comparing is free; a small service fee applies at booking.

Why Verification Matters for Handyman Work

$50/hr Quotes That Become $250 Bills.

Handyman work is the least-regulated trade in the home — so a written fixed-price scope, ID verification, and escrow are what stand between you and a "$50/hr" quote that becomes a $250 bill. Two checks and one habit shut that down:

ID-Verified to Bid

Government ID confirmed by identity before any handyman can bid. No anonymous "Joe with a truck" at your front door.

Every pro · no exceptions

Escrow-Protected Payment

Your money sits in escrow while the work happens. The pro is paid when you approve the finished job — not before.

Home Repairs FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything homeowners ask before booking — answered.

What's the best app to find home repair services near me?
AllBetter is the top-rated app for home repairs near you. Post your repair list once — every fix, with photos — and verified local handymen compete to send fixed-price bids for the whole list, not per-hour rates that grow on site. Every pro passes identity verification and payment is 100% escrow protected.
How much does a handyman charge for small home repairs?
Hourly handymen typically run $40–$80/hr. On AllBetter you skip the meter: most individual repairs bid at $50–$300 fixed-price, and bundling several fixes into one visit almost always beats paying separate call-outs.
Can I bundle multiple repairs into one job?
Yes — that's the smart way to do it. List everything (door, caulk, shelf, fan) in one post and pros bid the full list as one fixed price. One visit, one bid, no repeated trip charges.
Do the pros bring their own tools and materials?
Tools, always. Materials depend on the job — note in your post whether you have parts (hinges, fixtures, screens) or want them included, and each bid shows the all-in price before you book.
Is it safe to pay for home repairs through an app?
Safer than cash. Your payment sits in escrow until every item on the list is done and you approve the work. Not done right? You don't pay. Every pro is identity-verified before they can bid.
How fast can I get a handyman for home repairs?
Most posted jobs see their first bid in about 10 minutes in top metros, and many repair lists get scheduled within a day or two — you pick the pro and the time that works.
