These trans handypeople are going Tool 4 Tool.

A new home repair company, owned by two transgender construction professionals, has opened in Atlanta, per local LGBTQ+ publication Georgia Voice. The two professionals behind the nonprofit, who go by Nicky and Sam, formerly worked as part of the organization Queer Hands, a collective of queer people who provide home services. Per the Voice, Nicky and Sam requested that their last names not be used in the reporting.

While Queer Hands focused on help around the house, including painting, automotive care and cleaning, Nicky and Sam’s new venture, T4T Repairs will focus entirely on construction “to focus on workforce development for trans and gender non-conforming folks while continuing to provide reasonable priced carpentry, repair, design, demo, and general handy they work,” according to their website. Per the Voice, the T4T in the name of the nonprofit, which can often mean “trans 4 trans” in dating parlance, here means “Trans 4 the Trades.”
