Why Tradehand for booking online

Book or contact one business

You deal with the tradesperson you choose. Tradehand does not sell your details to a pack of rivals.

Free for homeowners

Searching, quoting and contacting a trade costs you nothing on Tradehand. You pay the trade for the work.

Price before you commit

On /quote, describe the job and Tradehand tells you the price by text, then finds a local tradesperson to take it.

Claimed, bookable listings

Pick a claimed profile when you want to book on the page. The listing says whether you can pick a time or message first.

How to book in three steps

  1. Open tradehand.com and search your trade and area, or go straight to /quote and describe the job.
  2. Choose a claimed listing to book or message, or accept the price Tradehand texts you so a local tradesperson can take the job.
  3. For regulated work, confirm the relevant scheme yourself before the visit: Gas Safe, NICEIC or NAPIT, or WaterSafe.
