How it works for you

  1. Apply in 5 minutes

    Areas, job types, call-out fee and hourly rate. Then a 10-minute English check online.

  2. Get jobs in your area

    By email and notification, with the problem, photos, area and urgency.

  3. Quote, and pay only if they reply

    Send your quote through the site. The job's credits are charged only if the client replies to you; their contact details appear then.

  4. Do the job, get paid directly

    The accepted job goes into your diary. The client pays you directly, against an invoice; good reviews bring more clients.

Urgent alerts

Urgent jobs: first to accept gets the job

Leaks, burst pipes, no water: clients who need someone now and are not comparing prices.

  1. Switch on “Available now”Urgent jobs in your area reach you first.
  2. Get the alertPriority notification and an email with one-tap accept.
  3. Say when you will arriveFrom 30 minutes to later today. The client sees your fees.
  4. Only the winner pays8 credits. Refunded if the client cancels within 5 minutes.

Play fair: repeated no-shows or drop-outs mean a pause from urgent jobs.

Frequently asked questions

How does the English check work?

After you apply you get a link by email: 4 spoken questions and one written message, about 10 minutes, on your phone. If you cannot record, send voice notes or book a video call. The confirmed level shows on your profile; English-language jobs go to plumbers with good or better.

Do credits expire?

Prepaid credits stay in your account while it is active. They are not refundable as cash, except in the cases set out in the terms.

Do I need fluent English?

No. We check your spoken English in a short online interview and show only the checked level: basic, good, fluent or native. Many clients prefer written messages, and the quote and invoice are in writing.

How long does approval take?

Usually 2 working days: we read your application and you do the online English check (about 10 minutes). Then you get an email to set your password, and your free credits.

Can I manage my current clients here?

Yes. Add them as your own clients and book their jobs in the same diary, with no credits: only new jobs from the site use credits.
