What do you mean the tradesperson buys the job

What do you mean the trades person has to buy the job from you? How much does it cost?

Hi all trades have to purchase your job to obtain your contact details, the cost depends on the budget for the job (bigger budget means higher purchase cost so make sure you don't over price the cost of the job because you will be less likely to get a response). Thanks. Ed

hiu, just so you know, rated people send us tradesmen brief details of the jobs that you have posted, we only receive brief details of the ties of jobs were interested in and in the area that we specify. if were then want to get in touch with you, we have to 'buy' the job leads off rated people, which includes all contact details etc. the price is dependant upon the value of the job that you specify. so if you say its under £100 we will likely have to pay about £5 plus vat for your details, however if its something that might cost £2000 then the costs can run into hundreds. rated people is an expensive way to gain work - but sometimes it can work very well and it allows you, the customer to see the review of others that have used the tradesmen, so you can judge what sort of a a person you are dealing with.
