Handyman businesses run on volume and speed. A typical day might have four or five jobs across different properties, a mix of repairs, small installs, and punch-list items for property managers, each one needing a clear scope, a time estimate, the right materials loaded in the truck, and a clean invoice at the end. Trying to track all of that in a notes app or a spreadsheet means something gets forgotten or mis-billed every week.
IRONGRID is handyman software that keeps up with the pace of that kind of day. Use it as your CRM for handyman businesses to keep every client's address, notes, and job history organized, as your handyman app to view job details and send invoices from the field, and as your billing tool to get paid the same day work is done. Handyman business software that works for a solo operator or a crew of ten, with no per-seat fees.
Built for the way handyman businesses work
Every tool you need to run your jobs from first call to final payment.
Fast Work Order Creation
Create a work order in seconds for any job: repair, install, or small renovation. Set the priority, assign yourself or a helper, and get to work without paperwork.
Priority Levels for Urgent Calls
Flag urgent requests so nothing gets pushed to the back of the queue. Mark jobs as Low, Standard, High, or Urgent and always know what needs attention first.
Unlimited Team Members
Add helpers, part-time staff, or subcontractors to your team at no extra cost. Assign them to jobs with role-based access. Every plan includes unlimited team members.
Materials Tracking Across Jobs
Log every screw, bracket, fitting, and supply used on a job. Track material costs so your invoices are accurate and nothing comes out of your pocket unexpectedly.
Same-Day Invoicing
Generate and send a professional invoice the moment a job is marked complete. Clients can pay by card, ACH, or check right from a link in their email.
Client History at Your Fingertips
Every client's contact info, address, and complete job history lives in one place. When they call back, you already know everything about their property.
How handyman businesses use IRONGRID
Monday starts with a property manager texting over three unit repairs: a running toilet, a broken garbage disposal, and a door that won't close right. You open IRONGRID, create three separate work orders in about two minutes, assign them to yourself or a helper, and add the unit addresses and any access notes. Your helper gets a push notification with the first job before you have even started loading the truck.
At each property, you log the time spent and whatever parts you used: a flapper kit, a disposal unit, a set of hinge screws. Those entries build the invoice for that job automatically. When the last unit is done, you mark all three complete and send three separate invoices to the property manager from your phone. The payment links land in their inbox the same day the work is done, not at the end of the month.
For handyman contractors with recurring accounts (monthly property walk-throughs for landlords, quarterly maintenance checks for commercial tenants), IRONGRID handles the schedule automatically. Set the visit frequency and the jobs appear on your calendar without you recreating them each time. Every recurring client stays on schedule and every visit is logged with its own time and materials record.
