About Us
Our Story
In 2015, Hamilton resident Troy Hillard encountered a vision to build a Local Handyman Service franchise brand to stand along other franchise businesses he was involved with. So, after seeing an old handyman truck rumbling along a McDonald’s drive-thru, he was inspired to start his own business not long after. He named his handyman service “The Handyman Group”. What began as a dream quickly turned into a unique business - a franchise of professional handymen all across New Zealand.
Troy invested in more vans, recruited great people, and set a goal to build a brand that would become a household name. Since 2015, the parent company has grown to approximately 240 franchisee's across three four different franchise brands.
