The "Lead Drought" Problem
Wasted time chasing unqualified homeowners who ghost after initial quotes for minor repairs like faucet drips or loose door hinges
Missing out on emergency repair calls, such as burst pipes or broken garage doors, because leads scatter across fragmented ad platforms like Facebook Marketplace and Angi
Struggling to stand out in local searches for services like gutter cleaning or fence repairs, where big-box services like Home Depot dominate visibility with deep ad budgets
Overpaying for generic leads that don't match your handyman specialties like drywall patching or light fixture installs, often resulting in 60% rejection rates
Inefficient follow-ups on seasonal jobs like spring deck repairs or fall gutter cleanings, leading to lost revenue during peak months with up to 30% missed bookings
Data silos between your website contact forms for quote requests, Google Local Services Ads, and direct phone inquiries for urgent fixes, causing duplicate quotes or missed opportunities worth $5K monthly

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Game-Changing Results for Your Handyman Operation
Boost Qualified Leads by 40%
Boost Qualified Leads by 40%: Our system identifies homeowners actively searching for handyman fixes, like leaky faucets or shelf installations in single-family homes, delivering leads that convert 3x faster than generic ads. You'll see fewer no-shows and more repeat clients, with benchmarks showing a 25% uplift in average job values from $250 to $312 within the first quarter.
Cut Lead Costs in Half
Cut Lead Costs in Half: Stop burning cash on broad Google Ads that attract tire-kickers browsing for DIY tips. Our custom AI targets precise local needs, such as urgent electrical outlet replacements in zip codes with aging housing stock, reducing cost-per-lead from $50 to under $25. Handymen report filling their schedules without the feast-or-famine cycle, especially during slow winters when indoor repairs like drywall touch-ups spike.
Streamline from Inquiry to On-Site
Streamline from Inquiry to On-Site: Automated responses and integrated scheduling via tools like Google Calendar mean you book jobs while competitors are still checking voicemails. This edge captures 70% more emergency calls for issues like flooded basements, turning one-off fixes into ongoing maintenance contracts valued at $1,200 annually per client that build long-term loyalty in your service area.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, I was juggling leads from three different apps like Thumbtack and Craigslist, missing half the handyman gigs in my neighborhood for jobs like cabinet door alignments. Now, their system pulls in targeted inquiries for those exact services, and I've booked 15 extra jobs averaging $300 each in the last two months without lifting a finger for follow-ups."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Reynolds Handyman Services in suburban Denver
"The custom lead gen they built for my team focused on local plumbing leaks and electrical panel upgrades, which was a game-changer during last summer's heatwave when AC breakdowns surged. We went from 20 leads a week to 45 qualified ones with detailed home info, and my revenue jumped 35% year-over-year to over $150K. No more chasing dead ends on mismatched inquiries."
Sarah Lopez
Founder, QuickFix Handymen serving Phoenix metro area
"I run a small operation in the suburbs, and their AI setup enriched leads with details like home sizes and renovation histories, helping me quote accurately for big projects like full bathroom overhauls costing $4,000+. It's saved me 10 hours weekly on admin, and I've landed three repeat clients from the first month's leads alone, each committing to quarterly maintenance."

What's Included
Common Questions
How does your AI lead generation differ from standard Google Ads for handymen?
Unlike Google Ads, which cast a wide net and charge per click regardless of intent, our custom AI system proactively scrapes and enriches leads from targeted local sources like community boards and service apps. It scores them for relevance—focusing on high-intent queries for handyman tasks such as door installations or painting jobs—delivering 40% more conversions at half the cost. We tailor it to your workflow, integrating directly with your scheduling software to book appointments automatically. This creates a steady stream of qualified homeowners in your area, without the ad fatigue that plagues many service providers. Over time, the AI refines itself based on your success patterns, ensuring leads align perfectly with your expertise and availability.
What kinds of leads will I get for my handyman business?
Our system generates leads specifically for handyman services, pulling from sources like local search trends and homeowner forums for needs such as fixture repairs, assembly tasks, or minor electrical work. Each lead includes enriched details: contact info, job description, property type, and urgency level. For example, if you're strong in carpentry, it prioritizes leads mentioning shelving or deck fixes within your zip code. We filter out low-quality or mismatched inquiries, focusing on those with budgets over $200 to match typical handyman jobs. Clients typically see a mix of emergency calls (30%) and planned projects (70%), all vetted for conversion potential. This targeted approach has helped handymen like you fill calendars year-round, even in off-seasons.
How long does it take to set up the custom lead generation system?
Setup typically takes 4-6 weeks, starting with a deep dive into your current lead sources and handyman operations. We map your service specialties—say, focusing on kitchen updates or gutter work—and build the AI engine accordingly. Integration with your existing tools, like QuickBooks for invoicing or Jobber for scheduling, happens in parallel to minimize disruption. Once live, we run a 2-week optimization phase, tweaking based on initial leads to hit 90% accuracy in scoring. This phased approach ensures the system feels like an extension of your business from day one, without the trial-and-error of generic platforms. Many handymen report their first qualified leads within the launch week.
Is this lead generation system scalable as my handyman service grows?
Absolutely—our architecture is designed for growth, handling everything from solo operators to teams with multiple vans. As you expand services, like adding landscaping alongside repairs, the AI adapts by incorporating new filters and data sources. It scales seamlessly, processing 10 leads a day or 100 without performance dips, thanks to robust cloud infrastructure. We've seen handyman businesses double their lead volume post-launch without added costs, as the system predicts and prepares for peaks like holiday prep seasons. Ownership of the code means you can evolve it in-house later, avoiding the scaling limits of subscription-based tools that cap features behind paywalls.
How do you ensure the leads are high-quality and relevant to handyman work?
Quality starts with precision targeting: our AI analyzes patterns from verified sources, scoring leads on factors like query specificity (e.g., 'fix broken cabinet' scores higher than 'home help') and homeowner profile matches. We enrich with data like past service records to weed out flakes, aiming for 80% qualification rates—far above the industry 50% for generic leads. For handymen, this means prioritizing local, actionable jobs like appliance installs over vague consultations. Regular audits and your feedback loop refine the model, ensuring relevance to your niche. The result? Leads that book 2-3x more often, with detailed notes to personalize your pitch and build those key client relationships.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the leads after implementation?
We stand by our work with a 90-day performance guarantee: if lead quality doesn't meet agreed benchmarks—like 30% conversion to jobs—we refine the system at no extra cost or provide a full refund. This is backed by our track record with home services, where 95% of clients see ROI within the first month. Post-launch, we offer ongoing support to tweak for changes, such as shifting focus from interior repairs to outdoor maintenance. It's all about building a reliable pipeline that grows your handyman business, not just delivering leads. Transparency is key; you'll have access to dashboards showing every metric, so satisfaction is measurable from the start.
