How it works

Three steps, both ways round

The idea is simple: make it easy to say what you need, and easy for the right local person to put their hand up.

If you need a job done

For customers

  1. 1

    You post the job

    Describe what needs doing, add a photo or two, and say roughly when suits and what you'd expect to pay. It's free and there's no obligation.

  2. 2

    Local joiners see it

    Your job goes to joiners nearby whose skills and availability match. Right now we do that matching by hand; the platform will do it as the network grows.

  3. 3

    You choose who you work with

    You'll see who's interested, what they do and what they'd charge. You pick, you agree the price with them directly, and they get the job done.

If you're on the tools

For joiners

  1. 1

    Register what you do

    Your trade, your experience level, the categories of work you want and how far you'll travel.

  2. 2

    Get jobs that fit

    You hear about local jobs in your categories. Respond to the ones that suit your week and ignore the rest.

  3. 3

    Build a track record

    Completed jobs and customer reviews build a profile that makes the next job easier to win.

What we're building next

Reputation, done properly

Right now the platform is deliberately manual — we'd rather get a handful of real jobs done well than launch an empty marketplace. What comes next is the reputation system that makes it work without us in the middle.

  • Reviews that only a customer with a completed job can leave
  • Jobs completed, completion rate and response rate on every profile
  • Identity verification, then qualification and insurance checks
  • Experience level shown plainly — apprentice, qualified, experienced

To be completely clear: none of that is live today. No joiner on Tradezy has been identity checked or had their qualifications verified yet, and we won't display a badge saying otherwise until the check genuinely exists.

This is a design preview of the joiner profiles we're building. Ratings, verification and completion stats are not live yet.

One small job is all it takes to get started.

Post the job you've been putting off, or put your name down as a joiner. Both take a couple of minutes and cost nothing.

Know someone who needs this?

We're growing through word of mouth and local groups. Sharing this is genuinely the most useful thing you can do for it.
