# Handyman website examples: four designs that turn small jobs into booked work

> MigrateLab builds high-performing websites for local businesses. Fixed price, live in 7 working days, fast on mobile, and yours to keep.

Four finished websites for handymen: the one-van veteran the neighbourhood already trusts, the finish carpenter whose small jobs look like furniture, the multi-van crew that handles property managers and landlords, and the booking machine with hourly rates, a task list and a calendar. Click through any of them, then order the one that fits.

A handyman customer has a list, not a project: a door that sticks, a shelf, a tap, a fence panel. What stops them calling is not knowing whether it is worth your time, what an hour costs, or whether you will actually turn up. Every hour you spend answering that on the phone is an hour you are not charging for.

The four sites below answer it four different ways. One sells a name the neighbourhood already knows. One sells finish carpentry and small work done beautifully. One sells capacity to landlords and property managers, with multiple vans and response times. One is a booking machine with rates, a task list and a live calendar. Every one is real, responsive and ready to rebuild around your business.

## The four designs

### A. Corbett's Odd Jobs (Heritage and trust)

- Price: $1,520 fixed, one time, live in 7 working days
- Who it suits: One-person repair and maintenance businesses whose work arrives by referral, and who need a site to answer price, scope and waiting time before the phone rings.
- Live demo: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites/corbett
- Order: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites?concept=corbett#quote
- The last twenty jobs are published with hours and price, so a customer finds a job like theirs and knows the number before calling
- The rate card and the one hour minimum sit above the service list, which ends the call that starts with "is this even worth your time"
- The two to three week wait is stated as proof rather than hidden, and the form asks for a photo of the broken thing so the job arrives already quoted

### B. Small Works Fine Carpentry & Repairs (Premium design-led)

- Price: $2,320 fixed, one time, live in 7 working days
- Who it suits: Joiners, finish carpenters and one-person repair workshops whose work is small, careful and photographable, and who want to be paid a day rate rather than compete on being cheap.
- Live demo: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites/small-works
- Order: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites?concept=small-works#quote
- Ten real jobs, each with the problem, the method, the materials, the hours and the price, answers the only two questions a small-job customer has: can you do mine, and what will it cost
- The day rate is printed at the top of the page instead of hidden behind a call, so the people who ring are the people who already accept it
- Photographing a repaired sash window like a piece of furniture is the whole argument for charging $480 a day instead of $200

### C. Fleetmark Property Maintenance (Bold and industrial)

- Price: $1,920 fixed, one time, live in 7 working days
- Who it suits: Multi-van maintenance firms working for landlords, letting agents and property managers, who win on response times and reporting rather than on a single trade.
- Live demo: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites/fleetmark
- Order: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites?concept=fleetmark#quote
- The job board shows a property manager the exact screen they would get, so the sale stops being a promise about response times and becomes a demonstration of them
- Response times, void costs and compliance are stated as numbers on the page, which is what a managing agent has to put in a tender document
- Everything a portfolio buyer needs to compare suppliers sits on one page: SLAs, prices, certificates, invoicing and coverage by town

### D. Hourline Handyman (Lead machine)

- Price: $2,320 fixed, one time, live in 7 working days
- Who it suits: One-van and three-van handymen who lose small jobs to voicemail and want the booking finished while the customer is still standing in front of the broken thing.
- Live demo: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites/hourline
- Order: https://migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites?concept=hourline#quote
- The task list answers the question that kills the call, whether a small job is even worth a handyman's time, and prices it in the same tap
- Hours and total are on screen before anyone is asked for a name, so the enquiry arrives with the price already agreed
- Every slot in the next ten days shows as open or taken, and long lists automatically hide the starts that cannot finish by 6pm

## You get the design you pick, made into your own site

Every demo on this page is a real layout we rebuild for you. The structure, the sections and the special feature stay as you see them. Your name, logo, colours, photos and wording replace ours, so it looks like it was always yours, and no other business in your area gets the same site.

Stays as you see it in the demo:

- The layout and page structure, section by section
- The special feature, like the map, calculator or booking calendar
- How it looks and works on a phone, and how fast it loads
- Type and spacing tuned so it still looks designed

Becomes yours:

- Your business name and logo. No logo yet? We set your name in a clean wordmark
- Your brand colours, applied across buttons, headings and backgrounds
- Your photos, or licensed photos chosen for your trade
- Your services, prices, service area, team and reviews
- Your phone, email, address and domain

Want a section from another design, or one moved or left out? Put it in your notes. Small changes like that are included.

## What every price includes

- The design you picked, rebuilt around your name, colours, logo and photos
- Copy written for your services and your service area, not filler
- A simple editor for text, photos, services and reviews, no code needed
- Contact and quote forms wired to your inbox, tap-to-call on mobile
- Search basics done properly: titles, descriptions, local business schema, sitemap, fast load
- Your domain connected, your old site redirected if there is one
- One round of changes before launch, and 30 days of fixes after it

## How to order

1. **Pick a design.** Choose the one that feels like your company. Mixing an element from another one is fine.
2. **Send us the basics.** Your logo if you have one, photos of your work, your services, service area, phone and email. A 15 minute call if you prefer talking to typing.
3. **Review the preview.** Within a week you get a private link to the finished site. One round of changes is included.
4. **Go live.** We connect your domain, redirect the old site, and hand you the keys. Nothing is held hostage.

Payment: 50% to start, 50% when the site goes live. Card or bank transfer, invoice due on receipt.

## After launch

- **Edit it yourself, $0 per month.** You get a simple editor for text, photos, services, reviews and service areas. Hosting runs under your own account for a few dollars a month. No contract with us.
- **Care plan, $63 per month.** We host it, watch it and change it for you. Send an email with the change, it is live within one working day. Cancel any month.
- **Let AI edit it, $0 per month.** The code is clean enough that Claude Code or Cursor can add a page, change a section or swap a photo from a plain English request. We set it up and show you how.

## What a great handyman service website needs

- **What an hour costs.** Hourly, half day, full day, and the minimum charge. Say it and the phone stops ringing with time-wasters.
- **A list of what you do.** People do not know if their job qualifies. Fifty tasks answers that faster than any paragraph.
- **Booking, not call-backs.** Let them pick a slot. Most small jobs are lost in the gap between the call and the call back.
- **Photo with the enquiry.** Everyone photographs the broken thing. Let them send it and quote properly.
- **Your towns.** Where you go, and any callout charge outside it.
- **The same person every time.** For this trade the person is the product. Face, name, story.
- **Insurance and background.** Someone is letting a stranger into their house.
- **Fast on a phone.** The job is remembered while standing in front of it.

## Questions

### How much does a handyman service website cost?

From us, $1,520 to $2,320 as a fixed, one-time price, depending on which of the four designs you pick, live in 7 working days. That includes the design rebuilt around your business, the copy, forms, search basics and connecting your domain. After launch you can edit it yourself for $0 a month or have us look after it for $63 a month. For comparison, agencies typically quote $3,000 to $10,000 for a small business site, and builder subscriptions run $20 to $50 a month for as long as the site exists.

### Will my site look exactly like the demo?

It keeps the same design, layout and structure, and the same special feature. Everything that is ours becomes yours: your name and logo, your brand colours, your photos, services, prices and contact details. Small changes, like borrowing a section from another design or leaving one out, are included in the fixed price.

### Who can build a website for my handyman service?

MigrateLab builds websites for handyman service owners. Pick one of four finished designs at migratelab.com/examples/handyman-websites, send your logo, photos and details, and we rebuild it around your business for a fixed $1,520 to $2,320, live in 7 working days. You own the site, there is no platform subscription, and you can edit it yourself or have us look after it.

### Can I get a handyman service website without a monthly platform fee?

Yes. A MigrateLab site is yours outright and runs on your own hosting for a few dollars a month, instead of a $20 to $50 monthly builder plan. You pay a one-time $1,520 to $2,320 for the build, and a care plan at $63 a month is optional if you want us to make changes for you.

### Are these real websites or just designs?

Real. Each concept is a complete, responsive website you can click through on any device. The businesses are fictional so you can see the design with realistic content, but the code and layout are exactly what you would receive.

### Can people book a slot instead of calling me?

Yes. We build a booking path set to your rates and your working hours, with a photo upload so the job arrives described. It syncs to your calendar, or just texts you, whichever you prefer.

### I get work from word of mouth. Do I need a website?

Most handymen we talk to are busy on referrals and Facebook groups and word of mouth. That works until the phone goes quiet, or someone searches your name and finds nothing, or a customer asks an AI assistant who to call. A site you own answers all of that, shows up when people search for your trade in your town, and does not disappear when a platform changes its rules.

### What happens after I pick one?

You send your logo if you have one, photos of your work, your services and prices, and the towns you cover. We rebuild the site around your business and send a private preview within a week. One round of changes, then it goes live on your domain.

### Will I be able to edit it myself?

Yes. Text, photos, prices and service areas are editable without touching code. Or pick the care plan and text or email us the change.

### What does it cost per month?

Nothing to us unless you choose the care plan. Hosting under your own account is a few dollars a month. There is no platform subscription.

Every company in the demos is a concept brand created by MigrateLab for illustration.
