Which Of These 5 Names Should I Use For My Handyman Business?
FreeRepublic ^ | 11-10-19 | OV

Posted on 11/10/2019 10:16:26 AM PST by OneVike

I have decided to start my own handyman business. I am currently doing odd jobs for people, but I want to make it official and thus I need to get a good business name while legally getting all my ducks in a row.

In the state of Idaho, I only need to be certified if I do plumbing or electrical. If I get a request for plumbing or electrical work I have friends who are certified that have agreed to work with me on those jobs.

I am in the process of getting a business license by the state, and will soon be bonded for $3000.00. This week I will open a business bank account, but I need a good name.

I already have business cards, (image below) I made with my computer. I also made a flyer (image below) that I have in many stores in towns throughout the County I live in. So far I have been getting good responses and I am actually getting more jobs than I expected.

My last name being Ness, gives me a good start for a catchy name. I have come up with 5 names I am considering.

Please help me by choosing which of the following names you think would be best. Mind you, I will be using this name for as long as my business is profitable

Helpful-Ness Handyman Services

NESS HANDYMAN SERVICES

Ness For Less Handyman Services

NESS Handyman Express

Handi-Ness Services


For obvious reasons I omitted the complete phone number and email address for this post

My business card


My Flyer

Sadly, todays generations are clueless about Elliot Ness and the untouchables.

Why not get a real license ? Be a real contractor. Handymen are shady

Plus from your perspective. What do you use as contracts ? Do you even use them ? If you don’t and someone doesn’t pay. Then what ?

You have NO STANDING in court without license AND PERMITS

do you pull permits for your jobs ? You better.

Most of the law ( liens etc ). Protect You

Illegal aliens try this gambit here in CA all the time. I can tell you for a fact as an electrician I have to CLEAN UP TGEIR ILLEGAL WIRING ALL THE TIME and it pisses me off !

Good luck

Yes I agree, I am in there process of also changing my cell number over. I am hoping I can keep the same number and just change the area code.

I’m good with all the various names.

I have an issue with “Some of the jobs I can do”

Change to “Services Include” or something similar.

Thanks. I like the one you offered, but my wife says that I should maybe stay away from the word express, since it refers to quick and fast.
