How You Find Your Guy

Everyone wants the friend who knows a guy. This is that friend, in an app — you look, you choose, you reach out. No bidding wars, no five companies calling you back.

1
Step 01
Look Them Up

Search by trade and location and see the actual person — their photo, their business, their work, their reviews. Every pro is reviewed by our team before their profile goes live. Browsing is free.

2
Step 02
Reach Out Yourself

Message the one you picked, directly. Your request isn't blasted to a list or sold as a lead — it goes to that pro and no one else. Sort out scope and price before any work starts. Messaging is free.

3
Step 03
Book, Then Vouch

Pay in the app if you want the protection — your money is held until you confirm the job is done, and support steps in if it isn't. A 3% platform fee applies to in-app payments. Afterward, leave a review: only people who actually completed a booking can, which is why the ratings mean something.

All pros on MyGuyPro are independent contractors, not employees or agents of MyGuyPro. MyGuyPro connects you with local professionals — we don't perform, guarantee, or take responsibility for the services provided. Always confirm credentials directly with your pro before work begins.

Trust Signals

What the Badges
Actually Mean.

Two things, kept separate on purpose: what every pro has to clear to be here at all, and what a pro has to earn from actual clients. Here is exactly what each one is telling you.

The baseline — every pro, no badge
Every profile is reviewed by our team before it goes live, free listings included. There's no badge for it because it isn't a distinction — it's the price of being on the app at all.
Recommended
Highly Trusted
Earned on the work
Recommended at 5+ reviews and a 4.3+ average. Highly Trusted at 15+ reviews and a 4.7+ average. Same thresholds for every pro — these cannot be bought at any price.

Badges reflect a pro's standing on MyGuyPro — they are not a guarantee of licensing, insurance, or credentials. Any license or insurance details on a profile are provided by the pro. Confirm them directly before you hire.

Why MyGuyPro

You Pick the Pro.
Not the Other Way Around.

Most hiring apps take your request and sell it to whoever paid for the lead. Then your phone rings five times. We built the opposite of that.

A Name and a Face, Not a Dispatch Queue

No anonymous listings. Every pro submits a profile for our team to review before it goes live, and what you see is the actual person you'd be hiring — not a call center that assigns you whoever's free.

Free to Browse, Free to Ask

A free account gets you the whole directory — profiles, reviews, and direct messaging, with no charge to reach out. You only pay a 3% platform fee if you choose to pay for the job through the app.

Your Neighbors Did the Vouching

Every review comes from someone who actually booked that pro and confirmed the job was finished — one review per job, no exceptions. It's the same thing as asking around, except you don't have to already know anyone.

Your Money Waits Until You Say So

Pay through the app and the payment is held until you confirm the work is done. If something goes wrong, dispute resolution happens in the app — you're not chasing anyone down. Pros keep 100% of their quoted rate; the 3% fee is what funds this.

Common Questions

What customers should know before finding a local pro.

How does MyGuyPro work for customers?
Use MyGuyPro to find local service professionals, compare profiles and reviews, message pros in the app, and choose who you want to work with. The goal is to keep discovery, communication, and booking organized in one place instead of scattered across searches, calls, and text threads.
Is MyGuyPro free to use?
Yes — creating an account, browsing pro profiles, reading reviews, and messaging professionals through the app is free for customers. A 3% platform fee is added only to bookings you choose to pay through the app; it covers secure payment, escrow until the job is complete, and in-app dispute resolution. If you arrange payment directly with the pro, MyGuyPro charges you nothing.
How do I contact or book a pro?
After you find a professional who looks like a good fit, you can message them directly in the app. Ask questions, describe the job, compare availability, and agree on next steps before any work starts.
How does MyGuyPro help me choose someone trustworthy?
Profiles include business details, service categories, reviews, ratings, and platform badges. Every pro's profile is reviewed by our team before it appears in search — free listings included. Recommended is earned at 5+ reviews with a 4.3+ average and Highly Trusted at 15+ reviews with a 4.7+ average; those thresholds are identical for every pro regardless of what they pay us. Verified Pro indicates a paid membership, not a quality assessment — we label it that way deliberately so you can weigh it accordingly. No badge is a guarantee of licensing or insurance; confirm those directly with the pro.
Are pros employees of MyGuyPro?
No. Pros on MyGuyPro are independent service professionals or businesses. MyGuyPro helps you discover, compare, and contact them, but you should always confirm licensing, insurance, pricing, timing, and job details directly with the professional before hiring.
What areas does MyGuyPro cover?
MyGuyPro is live now in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Los Angeles, and we're expanding to new cities based on where demand is highest.
How do reviews work?
After completing a job with a pro, customers can leave a star rating and written review directly in the app. Reviews are tied to real accounts. Pros cannot edit or remove customer reviews, and our team monitors for abuse to keep the review system useful.
