1. ProProjects
Based in Gurnee, IL, ProProjects works as a handyman. It has been in business for 13 years. Handyman work covers the small repairs and installs that pile up around a house but rarely justify calling a specialty trade. A single visit often bundles several items, such as patching a wall, rehanging a door, and mounting a shelf, so the homeowner clears a whole list in one trip instead of scheduling several. Common requests for handyman work include furniture assembly, mounting televisions, drywall patching, ceiling fan swaps and cabinet hardware replacement. ProProjects is also listed for furniture assembly and interior painting. A running list of small fixes that never seems to get shorter is the most common reason homeowners book a handyman visit and hand off several tasks at once. List every task in one message with a photo of each item, so the visit can be planned properly and the right materials brought along on the first trip. Handyman pricing usually depends on the number of tasks on the list, the time each one takes, and whether materials must be supplied or are already on hand.
