FAQ

Minority-Owned Contractor — Common Questions

Is Handy Manny's LLC a certified minority-owned business in Kentucky?

Yes. Handy Manny's LLC is a minority-owned business based in Lexington, KY. Owner Manuel 'Manny' Santos is the founder and principal operator. We qualify for MBE programs on Kentucky state-funded projects and federal Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) set-asides on federally funded construction.

What is an MBE contractor and how does it benefit a project in Kentucky?

MBE stands for Minority Business Enterprise. Many public agencies in Kentucky — including state agencies, cities, counties, and federally funded programs — have MBE spending goals. Hiring a certified minority-owned contractor like Handy Manny's LLC helps project owners meet those goals while getting a fully licensed, insured, BBB A+ accredited GC.

All services are delivered under a single licensed GC contract with full permit coverage.

Is Handy Manny's LLC also Davis-Bacon certified?

Yes. We are a certified Davis-Bacon contractor — one of the few minority-owned GCs in Central Kentucky with active prevailing wage certification. This makes us an eligible prime contractor for federally funded construction projects requiring both minority participation and Davis-Bacon compliance.
