What’s on your handyman website
Top to bottom, as in the example of Jack Burke Handyman. A block you leave empty stays off, and with up to five pages your services, the part about you and contact each get a page of their own.
- At the top
- In the example, “Your list of jobs, done in one go”: your name, what you do and one button to message you on WhatsApp.
- Services and prices
- Each service on its own line with the price you set; the example has 8 lines, such as ‘Hourly rate’, ‘Call-out charge’ and ‘Hanging lights, shelves and curtain rails’.
- Booking
- Only with Online booking: customers pick a service such as ‘Hourly rate’, a day and a time themselves; you set how long each service takes in your account, where the calendar is too.
- About you
- In the example, “About Jack”: who you are and how you work, with your own photo if you have one.
- Photos
- Photos of your own work, only if you upload at least 2.
- Reviews
- Only reviews from your own customers that you add yourself; without reviews this block stays off.
- Where you work
- The places you cover, one by one; the example has 6: Kilkenny, Callan, Thomastown, Castlecomer and more.
- Request a job
- Only with the quote form and inbox: customers fill in ‘Type of job’, ‘Postcode’, ‘How much work do you think it is’ and ‘When would suit you best’, and each request lands in the inbox in your account.
- Contact
- In the example, “Message or call”: call, WhatsApp and email, and your address with a directions link if you show it.

Questions from handymen
Can I show my hourly rate and call-out charge?
Yes, as separate lines with your services. You change them later yourself in your account, for free.
How do requests come in?
Through the quote form on your website. Your customer lists their jobs. Every request lands in the inbox in your account and you get an email. The form costs €18.15 to set up and €29.04 a year, incl. VAT (it comes with the Tradesman package). Without the form, customers simply call, message or email you.
Can I list boiler or gas jobs?
Only if you’re registered for gas work: work on gas appliances needs a registered installer. Without that registration, leave them out.
How is this different from the builder design?
The scale. The builder design opens with a site board for renovations; this one is for small jobs, with your hourly rate and WhatsApp up front.
Will people find me when they search for a handyman?
Your website runs on your own domain name, Google can read it, and the code says what kind of business you are, your address if you show it, your hours and the places you cover. When someone searches “handyman near me”, Google often shows businesses on the map first; for that you need a free Google Business Profile. Your account has a short checklist to set it up and to ask customers for a review. Nobody can promise you a top spot, and I won’t either.

Customers book a small job themselves for a half-day that suits you.

VAT, that’s €56, then €36 a year.
How soon is my website online?
You see it while you fill in your details, on a computer and on a phone; the copy is written in about half a minute. Once you approve it and pay, it goes online straight away. Then I check it myself, within one working day. If the system flags something, I check first and the site goes online after that. Already have a domain name? Your website runs on it as soon as you’ve set the DNS records at your registrar; you get an email when it’s ready.
About paying, your domain name, cancelling and who writes the copy: see the general questions.
Why it costs less
No agency hours and no surprises. This is where the price difference comes from, and what you can check yourself.
Designs made in advance, per trade
Each design is built once for one trade. You fill in your details instead of paying for a designer’s hours.
AI writes, I check
AI drafts the text from what you tell it. I check every new website myself, within one working day after it goes online.
You pay after you’ve seen it
You see your own website first and only pay once you approve it.
Nothing locked in
Your domain name is registered in your name, and you can download your whole website as a zip file at any time.
