Handyman Software
Every List, Every Repair and Every Invoice in One Place

A handyman day is a dozen small jobs that each need their own list, their own parts and their own invoice. HandymanBossPro keeps the customer's task list on the job, puts every job waiting for a day on a live map, builds each van's route, lets the tech tick off tasks and log hours and materials on the phone, and charges the card on file when the work is done.

Built for the Way a Handyman Actually Works.
Small Jobs, Long Lists, Lots of Houses.

Generic field software treats every job like one task with one price. A handyman visit is a list: hang three pictures, fix the sticking door, patch the hallway, swap the fan. HandymanBossPro is set up for that from the first screen.

📝

Task List on Every Job

The customer's honey-do list rides on the job and shows on the tech's phone, so nobody reads it off a text thread.

⏱️

Hours & Materials

Techs log hours on site, materials used and what they cost, so hourly jobs bill right and you know what each visit took.

📷

Before & After Photos

Photos of every repair saved with the job, ready for the homeowner, the landlord or your own records.

🗺️

Live Map of Waiting Work

Every job waiting for a day is a pin on the map. Circle a neighborhood and put it on a van in one step.

💬

Automatic Texts

Night-before reminders, on-the-way and arrived texts go out on their own, so customers are home and ready.

💳

Paid When It's Done

Completing the job creates the invoice and can charge the card on file before the van leaves.

The Whole List, the House and the Way In Before the Tech Knocks

Each job carries the customer's list, the items saved on the house and the access notes. The tech ticks off each task, logs the hours and materials, takes the photos and taps Complete.

  • Task list on the job card
  • Items on the house: water heater, fans, faucets, doors, locks, deck, fence, gutters
  • Lockbox and gate codes in the access notes
  • Hours, materials and materials cost on every job
  • Before and after photos saved with the job
  • Printable Handyman Job Report

From First Call to Paid Invoice

The same four steps for a single repair, a full-day honey-do list or a property manager's make-ready.

01

Quote It

Build an estimate from your service list, send it by text or email, and let the customer approve it online.

02

Put It on the Map

Approved work lands on the Waiting List map. Seasonal work comes due on its own.

03

Route the Van

Assign stops to a van, set the order by hand or auto-route, and the tech's phone shows the same order.

04

Finish and Get Paid

The tech ticks off the tasks, logs hours and materials, adds photos and completes. The invoice goes out and the card is charged.

Sticky Notes and Group Texts Don't Scale Past One Truck

Most handymen start with a phone, a notebook and a calendar app. It works until it doesn't.

The list lives in a text thread with the customer. The parts are on a receipt in the truck. The hours are a guess at the end of the day, and the invoice goes out on Sunday night if it goes out at all.

The moment you add a second truck or a helper, the notebook stops working. Somebody shows up without the list, somebody forgets the anchors, and the customer gets two different stories about when you are coming.

HandymanBossPro keeps the list, the house, the hours, the materials and the money on the job, so whoever goes out has the same information you do.

Handyman Software: Common Questions

Is this built for handymen or is it general field-service software?

It runs on the same platform as the other BossPro apps, set up for handyman work: task lists on jobs, hours and materials on the checklist, items on the house like fans, faucets, doors and gutters, a handyman starter service list and a Handyman Job Report.

Can I bill by the hour?

Yes. Set up an hourly service call in your service list. The tech logs the hours on site on the job, so the office has the real hours in front of it when the invoice goes out.

Do my techs need a special phone?

No. The tech app runs in the browser on iPhone and Android and installs to the home screen. Techs log in with your company login and a personal PIN.

What does it cost?

Start is $59/month, Pro is $89/month and Crew is $199/month. You are never billed per user, and every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no credit card.

Can I bring my customers over?

Yes. Import a CSV of customers and addresses. Imported addresses are placed on the map automatically.
