Home Services Business
Jiminez Construction
A handyman and small-construction services business I founded and operate — coordinating jobs with a network of trusted contractors. Owned end-to-end: brand, web presence, sales, scheduling, customer communication, and on-the-ground delivery.
The need
Small-construction and handyman work is a category dominated either by national franchises with high overhead or by individual one-person operations with limited bandwidth. Customers often have to choose between paying franchise margins or accepting scheduling friction and inconsistent quality.
Jiminez Construction sits in the middle: a single point of contact and accountability, with a vetted contractor network behind it that lets jobs scale up or down based on what each one actually needs.
What it does
- Single point of contact — customers work with me directly; I coordinate the right crew for each job.
- Contractor network — vetted, repeat-engagement contractors covering carpentry, plumbing, electrical, painting, and general home-services trades.
- Job scoping & estimation — honest scope, transparent pricing, and realistic timelines.
- Quality & accountability — one person on the hook end-to-end, not a hand-off chain of subcontractors.
- Web presence and lead handling — site, contact flow, scheduling, and customer communication built and run by me.
How it’s built & run
- Founder & OperatorOwn every layer: sales, scoping, scheduling, customer comms, contractor coordination, billing.
- Contractor networkVetted, repeat-engagement crews for trade-specific work.
- Web presenceBuilt and run independently at jiminezconstruction.com.
- Lean opsNo overhead office, no franchise fees — the business is structured so margins go to the people doing the work and to keeping customer pricing competitive.
Why it’s here
Running a services business alongside enterprise technology work isn’t the typical Principal-level resume bullet. It’s on this site because it’s a real venture — with real customers, real revenue, and real operational decisions every week. It’s what I do when I’m not in front of a screen, and it shapes how I think about delivery, scope, and trust in the rest of my work.
