How it works

Add it to the list. Consider it done.

Four steps to get set up, and the household to-do list stops being yours to carry.

01

The walk-through

We learn your home.

It starts with a free, documented walk-through, about an hour. We record measurements, mechanicals, appliances and paint codes to start your home's record. Then we plan your first visit around a real first project, the one your 2 free hours go to.

The app

Your home is already in it.

Sign in to the Hello Handy app and the walk-through's photos, rooms, measurements and paint codes are already there. It's where your home lives from now on: the list, every visit's photos, the whole record.

The list

You add to it.

One tap in the app, or a text. Snap a photo of the loose hinge and send it. Everything lands on one list that we manage.

The visit

A crew shows up already briefed.

Visits book in half-day (3.5h) or full-day (7h) blocks at $125/hr for a crew of 2. A foreman-led crew, briefed by your home record, works your list and sends photos of the finished work.
