Hi Behzad. Sometimes customers post the job with a price that is far to high and that the trades have to pay a large amount of money for a gamble if they have a chance in getting that job Also it may be a case of not enough information. regards Jeff Guild Flooring

We are sorry to hear that you have not received any quotes yet for the job you posted to Rated People. We do aim to connect you with three tradesmen for any job you post, but this does not always happen. The number of tradesmen who express interest in a job can vary for many reasons. Sometimes elements of the job or the description may not be appealing at the time or the budget and scope does not make sense for the job described. Sometimes it could just be that the tradesmen with the relevant skill set in your area are simply too busy at that moment in time. Jobs do stay live on the site for up to 3 working days (this can be extended to 6 if you update the posting) and we hope that you will be able to find a quality tradesman to undertake the works you require. Best Wishes, Lee The Ask an Expert Team
