Why Choose The Honey Do Service?
How are we unique? The Honey Do Service, Inc fills a much needed gap in the Home Services industry. Unlike our competitors, we don’t seek out the “low hanging fruit” that most single man service companies go after. We also don’t try to compete with full home builders. We fill the gap between the two, offering fixed price project completions such as simple plumbing, electrical, and renovation, all the way up to complete room additions, and kitchen / bath remodeling.

History
Our story begins in 2002 with Brad Fluke, our President & CEO, and his father, Tom, our current mascot, formulating an idea for a niche startup business. Brad was a welder living in California and raising a family, when one day out of the blue, he got a call from his father, telling Brad that he had a vision and he wanted Brad to help him start it. Brad moved back home with his family to Bristol, VA, where he began knocking on doors to get handyman work, under the name Tom’s Honey Do Service. Their workload quickly became more than father and son could handle alone, and soon, a crew was hired.
In 2004, after Tom retired, leaving Brad with the keys to the company’s future, Brad changed the name to The Honey Do Service, Inc. and this is where the legacy began. The Honey Do Service, Inc.’s success was growing more and more throughout the Tri-Cities area, and Brad quickly realized the benefit his service could provide nationally, and set course on franchising. By 2008, the housing market was crumbling, but The Honey Do Service, Inc. was thriving, and Brad finally realized the full potential of his newfound niche. The first two franchises were sold within no time at all, and the rest is history, with much more to come!
