Questions
Does it cost anything?
Joining is free for everyone. Contractors pay a 2% fee only when they hire through the site. Subcontractors join, find work and apply free. Founding members (everyone who joins before 1 March 2027) get a Founding Member badge, and contractors pay a 0.5% fee instead of 2% on contracts made in their first 3 months.
Which trades do you cover?
Plumbing, heating, electrical and roofing, for commercial and domestic work. We're starting with these four and will add more trades later.
Are you an agency?
No. We introduce contractors and subcontractors. You agree the job, price and terms directly with each other.
Who can see my profile?
Only signed-in members. Your phone number and email stay private: members talk through Trade-Link-UK messages, and only our team can see your contact details. Visitors to the home page only see a preview without names, such as your trades, area and job rate.
How do you make money?
