It’s property management. For the house you actually live in.

When you rented, something broke and you made one call. Then you bought, and it became your Saturday. Text Eva instead. She knows your house, works out who to call, gets them there and stays on it — so you can go back to enjoying the place instead of managing it.

Today 8:12 AM
My mom just called, her water’s coming out orange
That’s usually the water heater or a rusting line — not dangerous, but it won’t fix itself. Is this her house on Cherry Lane? I’ve got the heater as a 2011 install.
yes that’s the one
2:40 PM
Curtis went out and flushed it — sediment, not the line. Water’s clear. $140, and he says the heater has maybe two years left so I’ve put a note on it. She’s all set.
thank you 🙏

Handled in an afternoon — you never left work
Water heater flagged — 2011 install, watch it
Licence verified — before he knocked on her door
Why people call us

A house asks you for something almost every month.

A water softener that stopped regenerating. A sprinkler zone that won't come on. A garage door that catches. None of them are hard. All of them mean finding somebody and deciding whether to believe the price.

Finding someone takes longer than the job

You text a neighbor, search, read reviews you don't trust, and call three people who don't call back. That's your whole day gone before anybody has even looked at it.

You don’t know who to call

Who’s your roofer? Your plumber? The guy who does iron railing? You might know one of them. Nobody knows all of them — and working it out is the phone call that eats a Saturday.

So it waits, and then it's expensive

Small things get put off because dealing with them is the part you don't have time for. They don't get cheaper while they wait.

One call.

That's the whole thing renters have that owners don't. Something breaks, you make one call, and it stops being your problem.

Nobody sells that to people who own their homes. You can hire a property manager for a house you rent out — about ten percent of the rent, a few hundred dollars a month on most homes — and they'll handle every one of these calls for a house they don't even live in.

We do that for the house you actually live in. You keep the equity, the paint colors and the dog. You just stop being the one who has to find a plumber on a Tuesday.

How it works

Three things happen. None of them are yours to do.

1

You text us what’s wrong

A sentence is enough. “Water heater’s leaking.” “Something’s wrong with the AC.” You don’t have to know what it is or who fixes it. That’s the part we take.

2

We find the right person

Licensed, checked against the state, and someone we’d send to our own house. On anything big we bring you real prices side by side. You pick. We book it and confirm the time.

3

We stay on it until it’s done

We confirm they showed up, check afterwards that the work was actually right, and keep what happened on file — so the next time, nobody is hunting for a model number in a panic.

What it sounds like

“Miller came out on the 14th and replaced the softener resin — $310. Same plumber who did your disposal in March, so he already knew the house. Photo attached, and it’s all saved in your file. He said everything else looked fine. Nothing needed from you.”

One leak, start to finish

Water under the sink at 7:02 PM. Fixed by lunch the next day.

  1. 7:02 PM

    “Water coming out under the kitchen sink.” One text and a photo.

  2. 7:03 PM

    Eva sends the shutoff steps first: the two valves under the sink, turn right until they stop.

  3. 7:06 PM

    “It’s off.” Water stopped. Four minutes from the first text.

  4. 7:07 PM

    Eva asks: walk you through the fix, or have a plumber come? You pick the plumber. Since the water’s off, she books first thing in the morning so you don’t pay after-hours rates.

  5. 8:15 AM

    A vetted, licensed and insured local plumber is confirmed for 10:30.

  6. 11:10 AM

    Fixed. Eva checks in to make sure it stays fixed, and you pay the plumber directly.

You sent two texts. No calling around, no after-hours bill, nothing to keep track of.

Example of how a job runs.

What you get

One number. Any problem.

Plumbing, heating and air, electrical, the roof, the yard, the softener, the appliances, the garage door, the cleaning. If it's about the house, it's one call.

We find the right person for every job. Which trade a problem actually belongs to, whether their licence is current with Utah DOPL, whether their insurance is live, and whether they turn up. Then we stay on it until it’s finished.

  • We make the call — not a name texted to you. We contact them, schedule it, and confirm.
  • Everyone is checked — license verified with the state where the trade requires one, insurance certificate on file, references called, and tested on a real job before we send them to you.
  • Every quote in writing — on the big ones you see exactly what each company quoted. You talk to them, you decide, you sign with them.
  • You deal with them directly — the trade quotes you, contracts with you and bills you. We line it up and stay on it until it’s finished.
  • We follow up — we check in after every job, and if anything needs another look, we get them back out.
  • We remember — so you never repeat the story to a new person.
What it actually looks like

It’s a text message. That’s the whole interface.

No app to learn, no dashboard to keep up with, no login you’ll forget. You text Eva like you’d text a friend who happens to know your house.

Ask her anything

YouMom’s sprinkler system is leaking somewhere out front
EvaSend me a photo of where it’s pooling — a head and a valve box are two different jobs and I’d rather they saw it than guess at it. Either way I’ll get someone there this week.
YouShe wants the tree in her backyard taken down too
EvaThree came back: Wasatch $850 Thursday, Timp $940 next Tuesday, Canyon $1,100 whenever. All licensed and insured, certificates on file. Want me to book one?
YouWhat size furnace filter do I need?
Eva20x25x1, MERV 11. You’ve got two more in the hall closet.
YouWho does window cleaning around here?
EvaSummit $180 Tuesday, Lakeview $210 Thursday, Peak $240 Friday. Want me to book one?
YouWhen’s my furnace service due?
EvaKimball did it 14 October and they suggest annual, so next month. Want me to line it up?
YouGutters are overflowing again
EvaAlpine $145 Monday, Canyon $160 Wednesday, Timp $175 Tuesday. Say the word.
YouNeed the dog boarded for spring break
EvaBooked Cedar Ridge, 14–19 April, $312. Two others quoted if you’d rather.

Even the big ones

The calls that are actually stressful.

YouFurnace finally went out. Got a quote for $9,200 to replace it — is that fair?
EvaLet’s get you two more written quotes on the same scope by tonight, so you’re comparing like for like. Then you pick.
YouWater heater’s leaking all over the basement, what do I do?
EvaShut off the valve on top if you can reach it safely. Canyon’s on the way, should be there within the hour.
YouRoof’s been leaking during storms.
EvaThat one needs a real look, not a guess — getting three roofers out this week, I’ll send quotes as they come in.
YouSprinkler zone 3 won’t come on, no idea why.
EvaCould be the valve or the wiring. Sending someone to actually diagnose it instead of guessing at a fix.
YouDryer’s taking two cycles to dry one load lately.
EvaProbably the vent, not the heating element — cheaper fix either way. Want me to send someone, or I’ll text you how to check it yourself first?
YouCleaning service just canceled on me for Friday.
EvaWant me to find a backup this week, or skip it?
YouAre we doing the Christmas lights again this year?
EvaSame company did it last year for $380 — want me to book them again?
You never have to remember any of it. Eva keeps the calendar, the warranties, the model numbers and the receipts — so whenever you ask, she already knows.
Everything we handle

If it’s about the house, it’s one text.

You don’t have to work out who to call, or whether it’s big enough to bother us with. Tell us what you need. We come back with options and a date. You make the decisions — we do the running around.

Repairs and the trades

You describe it, we work out which trade it is and get the right one there. They quote you and bill you directly.

  • Plumbing — leaks, water heaters, softeners, fixtures
  • Heating and air — service, repair, replacement
  • Electrical — outlets, panels, fixtures
  • Roof and gutters
  • Appliance repair
  • Garage doors
  • Windows and doors
  • Drywall, paint and carpentry
  • Fencing and decks

Around the house

The recurring things you keep meaning to book.

  • House cleaning
  • Window cleaning
  • Carpet and upholstery cleaning
  • Pressure washing
  • Pest control
  • Lawn care and yard work
  • Snow removal
  • Pool and hot tub service
  • Gutter cleaning
  • Chimney sweeping
  • Dryer vent and air duct cleaning
  • Junk removal
  • Holiday lights, up and down

The seasonal calendar

Ask once, and we already know what’s due.

  • Sprinklers started in spring, blown out in fall
  • Furnace serviced before winter, A/C before summer
  • Water heater flush
  • Hose bibs winterised
  • Softener salt
  • Quotes on the roof after a big storm

Your home’s permanent file

Built once. Worth more every year.

  • Every system — make, model, age, serial
  • Filter sizes, paint colors, flooring
  • Breaker map and shutoffs, photographed
  • Every invoice, estimate, manual and warranty, kept for good
  • Who did what, when, and for how much
And if it isn’t on this list, ask anyway. This is what people ask for most, not a limit. If it’s a message, a schedule, or a piece of paper about your house, it’s ours.
What vetting actually means

We checked 98 contractors against the state. Eleven didn’t pass.

Not reviews. Not a badge on somebody’s website. The actual state licensing database, one company at a time — the thing almost nobody does before they take a bid.

118

contractors researched across our markets

98

looked up individually in the state licensing system

11

we will not send to your house

Why they didn’t pass
  • 3 — license suspended, and still advertising, still answering the phone, still taking work.
  • 1 — license expired months ago and never renewed.
  • 5 — no state record at all, under any name we could find.
  • 1 — working outside their license class: licensed for small jobs, advertising work the license doesn’t cover.
  • 1 — the name didn’t match the record. The business on the website isn’t the business on the license.

Every one of them would have shown up, done the work, and sent you a bill. You’d never have known.

Why the license is the thing that matters

It isn’t paperwork. It’s whether you can recover anything when it goes wrong.

Most people assume the worst case with an unlicensed contractor is bad work. The real worst case is worse than that, and it’s written into state law.

  • You can pay in full and still get a lien on your house. In Utah, hiring a licensed contractor protects you: if they don’t pay their own supplier, that supplier can’t come after your home. Hire an unlicensed one and that protection is gone — the supplier can lien your house even though you already paid. You pay twice.
  • State recovery funds only cover licensed work. They exist to pay a homeowner back when a contractor takes the money and fails — but only if that contractor was properly licensed when you signed. Unlicensed, there is nothing behind them.
  • No license usually means no insurance and no workers’ comp. If someone is hurt working on your property, that can land on your homeowner’s policy.
  • You can sue them — that’s not the problem. The problem is collecting. No bond, no insurance, often no assets. A judgment you can’t collect isn’t a remedy.
  • It follows you to closing. Unpermitted work has to be disclosed when you sell, and it can cost you the sale or the price.

The membership

Your house, looked after. $499 a year.

Or $49 a month. Two visits a year, and Eva keeps track of everything else.

What’s included

  • Two home visits a year. Smoke and CO detectors tested with fresh batteries, a new furnace filter, a safety walk through the house and a report to whoever you want.
  • Eva keeps the house record and the seasonal reminders. What’s installed, who came, what it cost, what’s coming due.
  • An update after every visit and every job. If it’s a parent’s house, you hear too.
  • Any repair is one text, and members come first.

Join

Annual saves $89 compared with paying monthly. Monthly is month to month. Any repair is billed by the pro directly, at their own price.

Not ready to join?

You can still text us about anything the house needs. We get a licensed, insured pro out, and they bill you directly at their own price.

  • Someone we already use. Not a stranger with a rating — a person who wants your next job too. That’s the quality control.
  • The trade bills you directly, at their own rate. You pay them directly, so your money stays in your hands.

Three ways to start

Free: $0

One number to text about anything in the house. We get the right pro out and stay on it until it’s made right. You pay the pro for the work, at their best standard rate. Using us never raises the price.

Text Eva for free

Membership: $49 a month or $499 a year

Two visits a year with smoke and CO detectors tested and fresh batteries, a new furnace filter, a safety walk and a report to whoever you want. Eva keeps the house record, and members come first in line.

Join the membership

The Helping Hand Plan: $169 a month

The little things, handled. Every month. A pro at the house every month working through the list for up to two hours: light bulbs changed, smoke detector batteries swapped, the furnace filter changed, pictures and mirrors hung, loose handles tightened, furniture assembled, the heavy stuff moved. The softener salt stays full, one bag every month.

Spring and fall, the visit runs longer for the safety check, then up to two hours on the list. Everything in the membership comes with it, and bigger jobs are one text to Eva.

Buying it for the two of you? See the Honey-Do Plan.

Start the Helping Hand Plan

Why this is different

One place. Always. Forever. Everything to do with the house.

Every other option leaves the thinking with you. Even the good ones. Especially the free ones.

“I have a guy.”

Then you still have to know it’s a plumbing problem and not a slab problem. You still call him, explain it, wait, chase him, and be home when he comes.

And he only does one trade. The roof, the panel, the softener, the yard — that’s four more guys you don’t have.

“I’ll use Angi or Thumbtack.”

They hand you names. That’s the product. You still work out which trade you even need, call them, explain the problem four times, chase the two who never call back, compare what they tell you, book one, and be there.

It’s free because the work stayed with you.

Or you text one place.

You don’t diagnose it, don’t pick anybody, don’t compare anybody, don’t chase anybody, don’t wait for a callback. You send one text and stop thinking about it.

Same number every time, for as long as you own the house. That’s the whole product.

And a general contractor charges you 10–20% to do this

Hiring trades and keeping them moving is a real job — a GC’s management fee is typically 10–20% of the job, on top of what the trades charge. That’s $900 to $1,800 on a $9,000 job, for the phone calls. You get the same hands-off result here, without a management fee. Most homeowners also can’t get a GC interested in a water heater.

What you can count on.

You get to stop thinking about it

Tell us once. We handle the middle and you hear from us when it’s done — not five times while it’s happening. Whether it’s your house or your mother’s in another town, you stop being the one who has to chase it.

Your money stays in your hands

The bill comes to you from whoever did the work, and you pay them directly.

Insurance on file for every pro

Certificate of insurance before the first job, and we track the expiration. If it lapses, they come off the list.

You set the spending limit

Tell us the number you're comfortable with. Under it, we just handle it. Over it, we come back to you with the bids and wait for your yes.

Everything is documented

Every job, every quote, every photo, kept with your house. Including the bids you turned down.

Your codes stay yours

Gate codes, alarm details and where the spare key is are stored apart from everything else and released only to the person doing your job — logged every time.

The things people ask first.

“I already have a guy.”

Good — keep him. Tell us who he is and he goes on your list as your preferred contractor, and we'll call him first. For every other trade, you still have one number for everything.

“Isn’t this just a maintenance plan?”

The membership does include the maintenance: two visits a year for the detectors and batteries, the furnace filter and a safety walk, with a report to whoever you want. The difference is the rest of the year. When it’s the roof, the panel, the water line or the furnace, most plans tell you to go find a contractor. You text Eva, and members come first.

“So how do you make money?”

Two ways. Members pay for the membership. And on a repair, the contractor who gets the job pays us a referral fee, so nothing extra comes out of your pocket — the same way a mortgage broker is paid by the lender, not the borrower.

Can he just add it to your bill? No. Every pro we send agrees in writing to give you their best standard rate and never to charge more because the job came through us. And he isn’t the only plumber we called, and the others want the next job. We’ll show you what each of them quoted, in writing, and you pick.

Every spot on our list is earned. Everyone on it passed a licence check and has current insurance on file. If you already have somebody you like, we call him. And if the honest answer is that you can handle it without a contractor, we say so.

“Do I have to join to get help?”

Anyone can text us and we’ll get a pro out, free. The membership is for people who want the twice-a-year visits and the house record kept for them: $499 a year, or $49 a month, month to month. The Helping Hand Plan, $169 a month, adds a pro at the house every month working through the list. Join here.

“Can I set this up for my parents?”

Yes, and that’s who the membership is built for. They text us or we call them, and after every visit and every job, you get an update. You stop being the one who has to chase it.

“Does this cost more than calling a contractor myself?”

No. The provider bills you directly, at their own price — their best standard rate, which every pro we send agrees to in writing — and nothing is added for us. On a repair, we are paid by the provider, not by you, so there is no second line on your bill and nothing added to the first one.

Free — no visit, no obligation

Bought your house in the last year or two? Send us the inspection report.

You got a forty-page report at closing, read the summary, and put it in a drawer. It has been quietly bothering you ever since. Send it to us and we’ll read the whole thing and send back one page.

  • Fix now — the two or three things that get worse and more expensive if they wait.
  • Put it on the calendar — what’s fine today but has a clock on it, and roughly when.
  • Don’t spend money on this — the items on your report that genuinely don’t matter.
  • What somebody will try to sell you — the things contractors upsell off a report like yours.

It’s free because it costs us twenty minutes and it’s the only honest way to show you what we do. It’s the plain-English version of what your report actually says — what needs attention now, what can wait, and what somebody already took care of.

Two business days. We do ten of these a week, so there’s sometimes a short wait. If you’d rather just keep the list and handle it yourself, keep it — it’s yours either way.

Want something looked at again? We’re happy to give you the names of two Utah‑licensed home inspectors.
