Become a Buildings and More Handyman.
- What are the Benefits of Joining Us?
- How to Apply to Become a Professional.
Intro:
A handyman is a person who has a skill set that enables them to handle
a wide range of mildly technical service needs in a building. This can
include but is not limited to repairs, servicing and maintenance,
installations, modifications, fabrications, and manual jobs.
What Do Our Handymen Do?
The capabilities of our handymen range from interior to exterior
works. They are great for less technical fix-up tasks that demand
multiple skills. An example of such a task is fixing the floor drain
of your bathroom ; hiring a handyman that has some knowledge in
plumbing and tiling might be more cost-effective than hiring both a
professional tiler and a professional plumber.
Handymen are also sometimes called Fixers, Repairers, Handypersons,
or Handy-Worker.
How Competent Should a Handyman be to Register with Us?
The competence of handymen hinges strongly on their training and
experience. Unlike Professionals, handymen do not need to have
certifications or belong to professional organizations. Being a member
of a trade union is enough if it is paired with sincerity, good
manners, and excellent finishing.
If you fit these criteria and have commendable work ethics, then we
invite you to register with us.

How Do Professionals Get Jobs on Buildings and More?
Our professionals are an important part of us. We want to help you
find quality projects that are in line with your expectations.>
Whether you prefer projects that are close to you or are willing to
travel to work on distant projects, we’ll help you find what you
need.>
There are three ways to get hired on Buildings and More:>
Receive Job Calls from Potential Clients
On your professional profile, you can display pre-packaged services
and their prices. Consequently, when visitors view your profile, they
can order your pre-packaged services which will mean that you have
been automatically hired. You will be notified whenever this
happens.
Get Discovered
We make it possible for potential clients to find and engage your
services while shopping on SHOP. When they search for products that
are related to your specialization, your profile could also turn up in
the search results so that you’ll be considered for the job.
Furthermore, your services are tied to products that relate to your
area of expertise (e.g, wood boards are tied to carpenters). When
customers go on to make purchases, you will automatically be suggested
to them as a qualified service provider. However, only professionals
that sponsor their profiles or perform outstandingly well, will enjoy
this extra benefit.
Apply to Project Calls
Clients might not wish or have the time to search for competent
professionals for their projects. Especially for big projects that
will require many skilled workers, a client might opt to make a
Project Call by publishing the nature of their project and the
products, professionals, and handymen that they believe they will
need.
When a customer makes a Project Call, suitable personnel with the
project’s expertise can apply to be considered for the project. The
client will review all sent in applications, interview the applicants
that stand out to them, and select those that they consider suitable
to work on their project.
Should you be invited for an interview or selected by a client for a
job, you will be duly notified. We advise that interviews be conducted
remotely; either via voice call or video call.
Special Requests
A client might have a job that needs skilled services but not know
which professional or handyman they should hire. In such
a situation, they can reach out to our Project Fulfillment team who
will help them understand the nature of their project and help them
find a suitable service provider.
We may suggest suitable professionals, but the final decision is up to
the client. If you are chosen as the professional that they prefer,
you will be contacted with the job offer and be provided with the
client’s budget and the details of the job. You have a right to either
accept or reject the job and provide a quote if one hasn’t been
established yet.
