The work in Nashville
Nashville has been absorbing new residents for a decade, and building for them at the edges while the older neighbourhoods fill with short-term rentals. A pro here moves between two worlds in the same week: brand-new construction that needs fitting out, and century-old houses near the centre being turned over for guests every few days.
- Fitting out newly built homes and townhouses
- Fast repairs between short-term rental stays
- Older-house repairs: doors, trim, floors, porches
- Fixture, faucet and lighting replacement
- Assembly and mounting for new arrivals

Before you take work in the US
HandyMan does not issue licences or permits, and nothing here is legal advice — the rules in the US are yours to meet. This is what pros usually have to sort out first.
- Licensing is set by the state, and often by the city on top of that. Some states license handyman work above a dollar threshold; others license only the specific trades.
- Plumbing, electrical and HVAC are licensed trades nearly everywhere. Check your state board before you accept that work, not after.
- Carry liability insurance, and workers compensation if you bring anyone with you. Clients and building managers ask for certificates.
- You are an independent contractor on this platform: you set your rates, you handle your own taxes, and you receive a 1099 where the thresholds apply.
Questions pros ask
Is short-term rental work worth the schedule?
It pays for speed rather than size: the window between guests is short, and pros who reliably hit it get called before anyone else.
What licensing applies in Tennessee?
The state licenses contractors above a dollar threshold and licenses trades such as electrical and plumbing. Check the state board for the work you plan to take.
Where should I base myself?
The metro sprawls. Pros who commit to either the inner neighbourhoods or the new-build edges spend less of the day driving.
How does payment work?
Through the platform: held while the job runs, released to your payout account when it is finished.
