Demo site — VantaWeb for Multi-Trade Home Services
VantaWeb-built multi-trade sites answer 24/7, triage the call by trade (plumbing / HVAC / electrical / painting / landscaping / handyman / cleaning / pressure washing), capture exact scope and urgency, route emergencies to on-call dispatch, and book each call into the correct trade calendar — automatically.
Each of the 8 Apex trades routes through its own intake flow — Anna triages the call, captures every line item, and books each into the right trade calendar.
Water heater install, faucet + toilet repair, drain cleaning, leak detection, sewer line, main line, and 24/7 emergency dispatch. NC Plumbing Class I licensed.
AC repair + install, furnace service, heat pump install, ductwork, indoor air quality, smart thermostats, seasonal tune-ups, and 24/7 emergency dispatch.
Outlet + switch install, panel upgrades, EV charger circuits, ceiling fans, recessed lighting, generator hookups, troubleshooting, and 24/7 hazard response.
Interior + exterior painting, accent walls, cabinet refinishing, fence + deck stain, drywall + texture repair, color consultation with Sherwin Williams partner.
Lawn maintenance, mulch + pinestraw, hedge + shrub trimming, seasonal cleanups, irrigation repair, sod install, and tree work up to 12-inch trunk diameter.
TV mounting, furniture assembly, drywall patching, door + window repair, gutter cleaning, fence repair, multi-task honey-do visits, and small-job triage to specialty trades.
The Charlotte four-season climate creates demand across every trade year-round. Catching issues early across every trade keeps small jobs from becoming emergencies.
Why answering every call matters more in this trade than almost any other.
The US home services market generates $650B+ across 5M+ businesses — but the average homeowner manages 4-7 different contractors per year (plumber, electrician, HVAC, landscaper, handyman, cleaner). Consolidated multi-trade providers capture homeowners who would rather call one number.

82% of homeowners say they would prefer to use one company for multiple home services if quality is consistent across trades — and multi-trade providers see 3.2x customer lifetime value vs single-trade specialists because each call surfaces additional trade needs.

Multi-trade maintenance plans are the highest-LTV business model in residential services. VantaWeb is built to convert one-off callers into Premium plan subscribers and property-manager accounts.
When a homeowner needs three things done (broken faucet, ceiling fan install, fence repair), they currently call three different companies and coordinate three schedules. Apex sends three technicians on three trade calendars in one coordinated visit window. Anna handles the multi-trade intake on the first call.
Anna asks the right diagnostic questions to route each line item to the right trade: small electrical (handyman scope) vs panel work (electrician scope), small plumbing (handyman scope) vs main line (plumber scope), painting + drywall (painter scope) vs full wall removal (GC scope). Right call goes to the right trade on the first call.
Quarterly multi-trade visits cover everything that adds up over a year: HVAC tune-up, gutter clean, exterior pressure wash, handyman list, pest preventive, and a full systems check. One plan, one bill, one number to call. The 340+ Charlotte households on the Apex Premium plan never juggle contractors again.
Peak demand by month and trade — so you know when scheduling is tightest for each service category.

Example service area: Greater Charlotte metro — Mecklenburg, Union, Cabarrus, Iredell, and Gaston counties. Your VantaWeb site displays your actual service zones with ZIP-code lookup.
Apex holds North Carolina General Contractor License #91842 (residential, unlimited), NC Plumbing Class I License #P1-23491, NC Electrical Class I License #E1-18203, and NC HVAC H1-12740. Painting, landscaping, handyman, cleaning, and pressure washing operate under the GC license. Every trade has a master-license holder on staff. All licenses verifiable at nclbgc.org and ncbeec.org.
Apex carries $4,000,000 per occurrence / $8,000,000 aggregate General Liability insurance (double the industry standard because we operate across 8 trades), Workers Compensation on every employee, and a $50,000 NC contractor bond. Every team member is W-2, passes a criminal background check, MVR check, and drug test. No marketplace contractors. No day-labor.
Each trade has its own service-level agreement with permit, inspection, and warranty terms appropriate to that trade. Apex bundles all of them under one master service agreement so you sign once and every trade visit follows the same standards: branded vans, photo ID badges, branded uniforms, written quotes, warranty registration, and worksite cleanup.
Service calls are quoted per trade with flat-rate pricing for common jobs and hourly estimates for complex work. The Apex Premium maintenance plan bundles quarterly visits across every trade for one monthly price.
Six steps from your first call to a protected home — with documentation at every stage so you know exactly what was done.
Anna answers 24/7 — captures every job on your list, triages each to the right trade, and asks the right diagnostic question for each (faucet swap is handyman; main line is plumber). Most intake calls take under 5 minutes even with multiple trades.
Anna books each trade into its own calendar coordinated to a single visit window when possible. Same-day for emergencies (active leak, no AC, electrical hazard). Same-week for service calls. Multi-trade bundles get scheduled within 7 business days of inquiry.
Technician arrives in a branded van with photo ID badge, walks through the job with you, confirms scope, and provides flat-rate quotes for common jobs OR hourly estimates with not-to-exceed caps for complex work. Quote is in writing before any work starts.
Single-trade jobs typically complete in one visit. Multi-trade bundles coordinated across same-day visits when possible. Permit-required work (panel upgrades, water heater installs, gas line work, structural changes) scheduled separately to allow permit pull and inspection.
Walkthrough on every job before payment. Worksite cleaned, debris hauled, photos of completed work added to your customer record. Payment due on completion or invoiced for maintenance plan customers. Every trade work category warrantied per its scope-appropriate term.
Warranties registered to your address by trade: plumbing 1-year, electrical 2-year, HVAC 2-year, painting 5-year, handyman 1-year, structural 5-year. If anything fails within the warranty window we return at no charge. Follow-up call within 14 days to confirm satisfaction.
Every Apex technician is W-2, background-checked, drug-tested, and works under an NC master license for their trade. No sub-contractors, no marketplace, no day-labor.
Real homeowners, real neighborhoods, real multi-trade work coordinated.
"Apex has been our one-call home services company for six years. Quarterly maintenance plan covers HVAC tune-ups, gutter cleaning, exterior pressure wash, and a 4-hour handyman visit. Outside the plan we have used them for emergency plumbing (water heater burst), full house repaint, and a deck rebuild. Quality is consistent across every trade."
"Called Apex on a Friday afternoon for three different problems: kitchen sink leaking, bedroom outlet not working, master bath fan replaced. Anna scheduled all three on the same Monday morning — three technicians, three trades, one coordinated visit window. Cheaper than three separate calls and 75% less of my time."
"Whole-home repaint plus fence stain plus front door refinish — three different scopes that Apex coordinated with one project manager. Used a single sign-off process, one invoice, one warranty. The project manager (David) was the difference — kept everything coordinated and on schedule."
"Maintenance plan customer for four years. Apex shows up quarterly for the HVAC, the handyman list, the gutters, and the pressure wash. Outside the plan: emergency electrical (panel issue), water heater replacement, deck staining, two kitchen plumbing repairs. They are the only home services number I keep in my phone."
"New construction punch list — 47 line items across 6 trades from a builder warranty walkthrough. Apex took the entire list, dispatched 5 technicians across 3 days, and resolved every item including 12 items the original builder had marked complete but were not. Saved us six weeks of chasing subs."
"Property management portfolio: 12 rental homes in Mecklenburg and Union counties. Apex handles every trade across all 12 — quarterly preventive, emergency dispatch, tenant turnover refresh. Single point of contact (account manager Lisa) means I am not coordinating 8 contractors per quarter."
