How much does this cost me?expand_more
Nothing, at any stage. Describing your project is free, getting quotes is free, and there's no fee if you hire someone. You pay your contractor for the work they do — that's it.
How quickly will I hear from someone?expand_more
Usually within a business day. Urgent jobs — no heat, an active leak, anything unsafe — get pushed to pros who take emergency work, and those often move the same day.
How many people will contact me?expand_more
Usually two to four. We'd rather send you three good options than fifteen mediocre ones, and you shouldn't have to field calls all week to hire one person.
Who sees my phone number?expand_more
Only the contractors matched to your specific job. We don't resell requests, we don't add you to marketing lists, and nobody outside that shortlist gets your details.
Are the contractors actually checked?expand_more
Yes, before they can receive anything. We look up each one's licence in the state registry ourselves rather than taking their word for it, and confirm their bond and insurance are current. We re-check periodically, not just once at signup.
What if the job is small?expand_more
Send it anyway. Plenty of pros take repair and punch-list work between bigger projects, and a small job is often how a good long-term relationship starts.
Do I have to hire one of them?expand_more
No. If none of the quotes feel right, walk away — you owe nobody anything. We'd rather you waited than hired someone you weren't sure about.
What kinds of work can I ask about?expand_more
Most home projects: kitchens and bathrooms, roofing, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, flooring, decks, siding, windows, painting, concrete, and general repairs. If you're not sure it fits, describe it anyway and we'll tell you.
