For subcontractors & independent carpentry crews

Tired of paying for leads that go nowhere?

Paid leads are expensive, and too many are shared, recycled, or never real to begin with.

A Mr. Carpentry® territory license gives you a brand homeowners remember, plus hosted pages and a GetBids request form, with no paid leads / per-lead fees.

See how it works
01

The lead problem

Renting attention versus building a name

You shouldn’t have to pay to find out a lead was never real.

Lead marketplaces charge you for every inquiry, then often sell that same homeowner to several other contractors. You pay up front, race to call first, and hope the job exists.

Bought leads

Pay first, hope later

Charged per inquiry, shared with competitors, and too often unreachable, unqualified, or fake.

Mr. Carpentry license

A brand that works for you

Operate under a recognized name in your territory. Your license also includes hosted pages with a GetBids form, so homeowners who find you can reach you directly.

The license is the brand. The pages, GetBids form, and software are perks that come with it, and there are never per-lead fees.

02

Where we are heading

From middle-man to territory partner

We are building a better way to find work.

01

Stepping away from out-of-state brokering

We have long networked with subcontractors, but acting as the middle-man between distant jobs and traveling crews is not the best long-term answer for anyone. Margins get split, travel costs pile up, and the carpenter never builds anything they own.

02

Exclusive territory rights instead

We now offer exclusive territory licenses for the Mr. Carpentry® brand. You work the area you already serve under a recognized name, run your business your way, and keep 100% of the job revenue.

03

Perks that support the brand

Hosted pages, a GetBids request form, a ball-park estimator, a territory email, and software access come with the license. They help homeowners find and reach you, but the real value is the name you build locally.

From sub to operator

Four steps to working your own territory.

  1. 01Qualify

    Do you deliver first-class carpentry work? The brand only carries weight when the craftsmanship behind it does. Apply and tell us about your work.

  2. 02Secure

    Most carpenters take jobs within 50 to 100 miles of home. License the region that covers the market you already serve.

  3. 03Launch

    Start operating under the Mr. Carpentry® name. Your hosted pages, GetBids form, and territory email are set up as part of the license.

  4. 04Grow

    Build local recognition under the brand, and add neighboring regions when you are ready.

03

The structural difference

Working under someone else’s name versus your own brand

Same skills. Better position.
