TradeLink connects homeowners with local tradespeople. No upfront fees, no wasted leads. We only take 10% when the job is booked and done.
Existing platforms charge tradespeople $15 to $100 per lead, whether they win the job or not. Subscriptions stack on top. The house always wins, except the tradesperson.
Thumbtack charges per quote sent. Buy 10 leads, win 2. You just paid for 8 ghosts.
Angi charges a monthly subscription AND per-lead fees. You pay to be listed, then pay again to work.
Your lead goes to 5 other contractors. Race to respond, race to the bottom on price.
Describe what you need. Leaky faucet, new deck, rewire the basement. Takes 60 seconds.
Verified tradespeople in your area see the job and send quotes. You pick who fits.
Confirm the booking, job gets done, payment is handled. TradeLink takes 10%. That's it.
