Callbook Partner Network · Handyman

Free handyman leads, booked jobs, no per-lead fees.

Homeowners book small repairs and installs through handyman businesses on Callbook and on our customer site: a door that will not latch, a fan to hang, drywall to patch. When the booking business cannot cover it, the job goes to handymen nearby. Leads are free, you see the work before you accept, and you bill the customer for what you charge.

What a free handyman lead means here

A lead on Callbook is not a quote request shared with five pros. It is a customer who booked a handyman visit, gave an address and picked a time, with a business on Callbook or on our customer site, and whom that business could not cover. The job is offered to handymen and small repair companies nearby; the first to accept gets it. Nothing is charged for the lead. You do the work as your own company, bill the customer, and Callbook invoices you a flat $30 once the job is done. Jobs start in Jacksonville, FL and Atlanta, GA, and you can apply from anywhere.

Where the money goes

Example: Hang two ceiling fans and patch drywall

Labor you charge
$240
Parts on your invoice
$20
Customer pays you
$260
Callbook fee, after the job
-$30
You keep
$230

An example at a typical ticket, not a promise. You set your own prices. The fee is the same $30 on a $900 job, and nothing is owed for a job that does not happen.

How it works

From the text to your invoice, in three steps.

  1. Step 1

    A booked job is texted to you

    The work, the area and the time. Only jobs in your trade and your areas. Pass costs nothing.

  2. Step 2

    First to accept gets it

    Tap Take it and the customer’s name, number and address unlock, with directions and a call button.

  3. Step 3

    Do the job, bill the customer

    Quote and collect as your own company. Callbook invoices you a flat $30 after the job is done, pay by card from a link, due in 7 days.

Everything runs from your phone’s browser, no app store: offers, directions, Before and After photos, written quotes, messages with the office and your fee invoices. See the full tour.

Questions

Questions handymen and small repair companies ask

Can I pick the kind of work I get?

Yes. List the work you do and the work you do not under Me in the portal. A job that mentions work you excluded never reaches you.

How much is a typical handyman job here?

It varies with the task and what you charge. Every offer shows the work before you accept, and you set the price with the customer. Callbook’s charge is a flat $30 per completed job, nothing per lead.

Do I need a company name?

No. Sign up under your own name if you work for yourself. The customer is told who is coming either way.

Are the leads really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up fee, no monthly fee and no charge per lead, whether you take the job or pass. Callbook charges a flat $30 only after a job is completed, invoiced to you with a pay-by-card link due in 7 days. No card is needed to join.

How is this different from Angi, Thumbtack or HomeAdvisor?

Pay-per-lead sites charge you for a contact whether or not you win the job, and several pros get the same lead. Here the customer has already booked a time and given an address, the first pro to accept gets the job, and you pay only when the job is done.

Where are the jobs?

Jobs come from businesses on Callbook and customers who book on our site, starting with Jacksonville, FL and Atlanta, GA. Apply from anywhere: we text you when jobs open in your area.

How do I get paid?

Directly by the customer, the way you already do: card, check, cash, Zelle, your own invoice. Callbook never holds your money.

What do I need to join?

General liability insurance (you upload the certificate), a license where your state requires one, a background check, a smartphone that gets texts and a vehicle. Apply in about 10 minutes; we text you when you are approved.
