For independent pros
Your one-off customers, on a monthly paycheck.
You already do good work for people who call you once a year. Candoo turns that into a standing relationship — and takes nothing out of what you charge.
The math on one customer
A one-time job pays once. The same house on a maintenance plan pays every month, and you stop spending your evenings finding the next one.
One-time job
$450
Paid once. Then you go looking again.
Same house, on a plan
10–20 hrs
Per year, at your rate, recurring.
Candoo's fee
0%
Always. We make our money from the member, not from you.
How it works
Four steps, and you’ve already done the hardest one.
The hard part is the trust you’ve built over the years. That’s done. We handle most of the rest with you.
- 1
You apply
Tell us your trade, your area, and how you work.
- 2
We meet and check
A conversation, a reference call, and we verify your insurance certificate.
- 3
A customer joins
They come on at the $200/month minimum, and we introduce you as their pro.
- 4
You keep the relationship
The work recurs. We handle billing, scheduling and scope.
Members join at a $200/month minimum. That is what funds the standing relationship you are being paid out of.
Why Candoo
Alone, you’re their handyman. With Candoo, you’re part of their whole-home team.
When a customer joins, they get one point of contact for their whole home. Candoo coordinates the other trades they’d track down themselves: lawn, pool, pest, electrical, HVAC. You’re part of a service worth more to them, so more comes back to you.
What you get, specifically
Your rates, unchanged
You set the price. We do not negotiate you down to win a member.
No add-on fees
Candoo takes no percentage of your invoice. Not now, not at scale.
Work from the network
Jobs at homes we already maintain, not leads you have to close.
Scope defended
The job is defined before you arrive, and we push back when it grows mid-visit.
Continuity backstop
If you are booked or away, the member is still covered — and still yours after.
We run the billing
Invoicing, collection and chasing are ours. You get paid on a schedule.
The calculator
What’s your book actually worth?
Plug in your numbers. This is just the scheduled plan work. The repairs and projects those homes send you are on top.
What a recurring book is worth
Move the sliders to your own numbers. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Based on 4 visits a year and 10–20 hours of net-new work per home. Repairs and projects are extra.
Visits per year
80
Net-new hours per year
300
$19,500
a year of scheduled work you didn’t have to sell.
+ first call on every repair those homes generate.
Our assumptions, your numbers — an illustration, not a projection or a guarantee of work. Candoo takes no percentage of it.
Apply to work with us
