Why Choose Handy Helper?

Licensed—Although the state of Missouri doesn’t have a contractor’s license, we have all the required business licenses for the area that we serve.

Insured—We are fully covered with General Liability and Worker’s Comp Insurance to protect you and our employees. We never want our activities to become a burden to you if something were to go wrong.

Experienced—Our team has almost 100 years of combined construction experience from custom homes to rental repairs to commercial office buildings. Plus, Handy Helper has been helping locals just like you since 2014.

Local—Handy Helper was started by us right here in Ozark. We’re your neighbors, and we’re invested in this community just like you. We serve the Springfield metro area.

Professional—Our team wears a uniform, so you always recognize us immediately. We take extra time to explain what we are doing, when necessary, and we always treat your home like our own (maybe even better).

Up Front Pricing—Whenever possible, we look at your project(s) and explain some of the potential unknowns that we might come across. Then, we give you a fixed price based on our experience and all of the known site conditions. Sometimes we find new information once we start. When that happens, we stop and discuss it with you so you can make an informed decision about how we will move forward.

Responsive Communication—One thing that we get a lot of compliments on is our communication. We let you know when we will be arriving, who will be coming, and what they will be working on every day.

Our Process

Submit a contact form and we will reach out to discuss further details and next steps.

For smaller projects, we will have you submit photos so we can provide a rough estimate. For larger projects, we will need a site visit to gather measurements and fully discuss your needs.

After we have the necessary info, you will receive an estimate with a full written scope of work and fixed price (via text & email). You can then review and ask any questions.

Once you have approved the estimate and paid the deposit, your project is placed in the scheduling queue. We balance your schedule with ours so we can assign the best handyman with the right expertise for your project.

  Worth the wait! All items on my list were completed quickly and all messes cleaned up! They replaced light switches and secured and receptacle box. They replaced two hanging light fixtures, one of them had to be moved 4 in so I could center my dining room table. I love it! They replace the Warped and disintegrating particle board under the sink in the kitchen. Looks so good! And they replaced the old doggie door with the new one and my old pooch is very happy! Highly recommend!

  This was a railing install. Work was done fast. Unit looks very good. My wife and I are very happy with the result of hiring Handy Helper. We will call again in the Spring to have some shed work done.

  Their team helped to install 2 shower doors for us and overcame several obstacles to make it right.  The detail and care they showed was second to none.  We will be using them again for some small electrical work and who knows what else will come up.
