The History of Handyman Matters

In 1998, Handyman Matters was brought to life in Denver Colorado by Andy Bell. It was important to Andy that this business serve as a catalyst for change in the Handyman Industry, that it served to restore public confidence in this industry, and that the employees of the business be treated with respect. Andy picked up the Denver, Colorado phone book and called over 300 people, asking about their experiences with home repair services. “It just made sense to me to chat with people and find out what they liked and what they didn’t like,” Bell says.

Operating in the Denver market, Andy meticulously noted and created the business systems around the lessons he learned from his converstions, and his first hand experience working in people’s homes over the years. As a result, Handyman Matters has developed comprehensive operating manuals, training systems and scheduling software.
