Takl Expands On-Demand App Into SoCal

Takl, which operates a mobile app-driven service to connect users with on-demand home services such as lawn care, house cleaning, home repair, and more, has launched into Southern California. The Nashville-based company said it now serves more than 150 cities in Southern California, ranking from Orange County, to Los Angeles, and into Ventura County. Takl said it offers up pre-set prices for a number of in-home small jobs and chores, and has signed up more than 5,000 local home services providers in the area to offer up their services via its app. Takl is led by serial entrepeneur Willis Johnson, who also founded online auto auction site Copart; the company launched in Nashville in July of 2016. Takl says the Southern California launch comes ahead of a further expansion in coming weeks,which will add San Diego, along with Sacramento and San Francisco.
