SICK OF LOSING LEADS TO BIG COMPANIES?
Big companies buy up leads and businesses - taking opportunities away from authentic, local tradespeople. Our goal is to get those opportunities back.
One spot per trade. No pressure — just a conversation.
What is Honest Hands?
Honest Hands is a new kind of trade network — a stamp of approval for people who still care about how work gets done.
We only stand behind pros who:
Do high-quality work with pride
Are boots on the ground — not just selling jobs and subcontracting everything
Hold a deep seated hatred for companies like Thumbtack, Angi's List, and private equity groups that buy up leads and companies
Are truly local and/or family-run
We're not a marketplace. We're not a lead mill. We’re a values-first movement for the trades — and we’re starting with a small group of the best.
Why It Matters
In other industries, you’ve got “Fair Trade,” “GMO-Free,” and “Organic” — signals that help customers make better choices. The trades have “Family Owned” and “Veteran Owned,” but those labels are often stretched thin.
Customers want to hire local - so why don't they?
It’s our promise that the people behind the work care about quality, fairness, and doing things the right way.
