Our story

From local roots to a bigger future

HandNorth started with a simple idea: people with reliable professionals, an all-in price, and Stripe escrow on the way. We opened in Montreal because a marketplace is only as good as the people who show up.

The brand is built for Canada and the United States. Booking is live in Greater Montreal first. We will not publish a coast-to-coast map or a “2,500 pros” counter we cannot stand behind.

More than a platform.
A community.

Better homes

Clearer quotes and a written scope beat a handshake in the driveway.

Stronger pros

Independent contractors keep their licence, insurance and calendar.

Thriving streets

We open a city when people there can actually show up.

Canada and the United States. Booking follows the bench, not a map pin.

Our mission

Building trust in every project

We help homeowners and professionals plan, hire and finish home work with one all-in number. Quebec GST+QST on live jobs is 14.975%. Pros pay a subscription — there is no commission on completed work. Cash off-platform is not how we work.

Trust & safety
  • Trust

    ID reviewed by a person, a written quote, and Report a problem — Stripe escrow is on the way.

  • People

    Homeowners and independent contractors first. We are the marketplace.

  • Progress

    Montreal first. The next city is the one we can staff.

  • Care

    Energy-sensible work only when it is on the quote — not a green badge we invented.

Real people. Real listings.

Who you can hire today

These four Montreal-area companies are on Find a pro. We will not invent a C-suite or extra faces to look bigger.
