Questions

Frequently asked

Why should I use My Local Toolbox?

We work with some of the UK’s best ‘find a tradesperson’ platforms and send your job to the platform we think will get you the best response. You’ll see a ‘powered by’ logo on the page where you post your job - this is the platform we’ve chosen for that job type.

How does My Local Toolbox work?

Firstly, post a job by selecting the trade you need and filling out the interactive form. We'll post your job and contact details to one of our partner platforms (Rated People, My Job Quote, Local Quotes, Bark or Service Start). They share your job with the relevant tradespeople in their network (but not your contact details to begin with). If a tradesperson is interested in your job, they will pay a small fee to see your contact details so they can contact you and arrange a quote. You decide who, if any, of the tradespeople you want to hire. To help you make a decision, our partner platform will send you an email with the tradesperson's profile and reviews.

How do I post a job?

You can click here to post a job. We'll ask you what trade you need and then guide you through an interactive form that will create your job post. Once you submit the form, you'll receive a confirmation email that your job has been successfully posted.

What happens after I post a job?

Once you post your job, we instantly send your requirements to our chosen partner platform. They share it with the relevant tradespeople in their network. For the next few days, your job will be live and tradespeople will have the option of paying a small fee to contact you to arrange a quote.

What information should I include?

We ask you a few questions about your job. Be as descriptive as possible. The more information you give, the more likely it is you’ll get a good response from tradespeople. Detailed descriptions tend to get a better response because a tradesperson has a very clear idea of what is needed and whether they can help, so be sure to include anything that you think is relevant.
