How long do you wait for a trademan to contact you

Hello Gary, I usually contact the customer as soon as I have the details. Within 5 to 10 minutes. Thanks Liam

Hi Gary, Jobs are left on our site for three working days or until three tradesmen have purchase your contact details. We will email you when a tradesman is interested in your job. If you have posted a job and have not received a response within 24 hours, we would recommend updating your job with more information and/or an adjusted budget. Our handy FAQ will guide you through this: http://www.ratedpeople.com/c/help#no-tms-found. If updating your job doesn’t help, we would recommend asking our Expert tradesmen what more you can do (here: http://www.ratedpeople.com/diy-advice/) before posting your job at a later date if non-urgent. Best Wishes, Josh The Ask An Expert Team
