The Verdict

Background-Checked Help, Now in LA

Takl connects customers with thousands of background-checked providers for just about any task — what the app itself calls 'providers' rather than handymen — and the company's Los Angeles launch is good news for anyone tired of vetting help on their own.

The background-check requirement is the real differentiator against services like TaskRabbit: knowing the person coming to fix a broken toilet at 11pm has actually been screened matters, and Takl positions itself as often cheaper than comparable services, even if it isn't always the outright cheapest option available.

Beyond home repairs, Takl covers a surprisingly broad range of jobs, from complex bathroom repairs down to simple pantry organization, and the LA launch also means new local job openings as the company builds out its provider network in the city.

New LA customers can use coupon code C2A47 for 10% off their first job — a reasonable way to try the service out before committing to it regularly.

Pros

Why We Love It

  • Providers are background-checked, unlike some competing services
  • Covers a wide range of jobs, from complex repairs to simple chores
  • Often cheaper than comparable services
Cons

Considerations

  • Not always the cheapest option available — you pay partly for the ease of use
  • Was still expanding its LA provider network at the time of this review

Takl in Los Angeles

For LA customers with small jobs or chores piling up, Takl positions itself as the easiest and quickest way to get help, whether that's a specific repair or a general task around the house or office. The company was also actively hiring new providers as part of the LA expansion, which should mean a growing pool of available help as the local network builds out.
