Handyman on the Go turns "I need to get that fixed" into a booked appointment in about a minute. Pick the work you need done, see the price before you commit, choose a date and time window, and lock it in with a deposit: no phone tag, no waiting on a callback, no vague estimates. BOOK IN THREE STEPS Pick what you need done. Browse services with the hours and price shown on every line. Choose your date and time window—morning, afternoon, or evening. Review and confirm. Check your work order, pay your deposit, and you're on the schedule. HANDYMAN SERVICES TV mounting Furniture assembly Faucet repair Door replacement Drywall patching Light fixture installation Ceiling fan installation Flooring, tile, and laminate Plus general repairs, installs, and small projects around the house MOVING SERVICES Need more than a repair? Schedule a moving estimate for packing, loading, unloading, and moving help, and we'll build a quote around the job. PRICING YOU CAN SEE UP FRONT Every service is billed at a flat hourly rate with the estimated hours listed before you book. Add services and your estimated total updates instantly, so you always know what you're agreeing to. If a job runs longer or shorter than estimated, your final price reflects the actual time worked, and we tell you that up front rather than burying it in the fine print. BUILT FOR REAL SCHEDULES Choose your own service date from an open calendar Pick the window that fits your day: morning, afternoon, or evening Next-day Availability, with dates inside 24 hours locked so every booking gets proper crew scheduling Your address, date, and window are confirmed on screen before payment ADJUST THE JOB TO FIT Your work isn't always a standard line item. Edit the hours on any service, and the price recalculates automatically from the hourly rate, so a quick five-minute mount and a full afternoon of assembly are both priced fairly. EVERY BOOKING, DOCUMENTED Each job generates a work order with its own reference number listing the services selected, hours, rate, date, time window, and service address. Review it before you pay and keep it for your records afterward. SECURE DEPOSITS Pay your deposit in the app to confirm your slot. Your booking is held the moment payment goes through. Download Handyman on the Go and get your list handled. ***Powered by SweetGum.ai***

HailScore Pro puts the storm record for any US address in your pocket. Type a curb address and get the hail history that matters on a roof call: how many storm days the property has seen, the largest hail within 1, 2, and 3 miles, and the date of each one. Built for contractors working out of a truck — big type, high contrast, no clutter. EVERY READING IS CITED Each row traces back to the publisher's own record — NOAA Storm Events, NEXRAD radar, MRMS MESH, and CoCoRaHS observations. Open a storm day to see every reading behind it, with the source ID you can quote directly. No proprietary score, no black box. BUILT FOR THE FIELD • Address in, storm days out — a few seconds • Largest hail within 1, 2, and 3 miles, per storm day • Look up the address you're standing at, from the curb • Copy the date of loss to your clipboard with one tap • Share a branded summary with a homeowner or adjuster • Recent lookups saved on device • Live data-freshness indicator so you know how current the radar is CHOOSE A WINDOW Look back 3, 5, or 10 years from any address. FREE TO START 14 days of unlimited address lookups, free. No payment method needed to begin. After the trial, new subscribers pay $13 for the first month, then $33/month for one user.

Order a full storm-history report for the address — $9.95, emailed in about a minute, with every event cited to its government source record.
