Where Rank My Builder covers
Everyone
Rank My Builder is building a fairer trades marketplace across the UK — but honestly, and in the right order. The directory and the free quoting tools are national; live job matching (where a job you post actually reaches local verified trades) is switched on area by area as we recruit real supply. Here's exactly where things stand.
A UK-wide directory, matched area by area
You can browse verified trades and use the free quoting tools anywhere in the UK. What we build out gradually is live job matching — posting a job and having it reach verified local trades who cover your postcode.
We do it this way on purpose. It's easy to promise national coverage on day one; it's honest to only say a job will reach local trades where we've actually recruited them. We'd rather under-promise than send your job into a void.
Where job matching is live today
Live matching is currently focused on the East Midlands — the Nottingham (NG), Derby (DE) and Leicester (LE) postcode areas — where we've been building a base of verified, reviewed local trades.
If your postcode is in one of those areas, post a job and it'll reach local tradespeople who cover your patch.
If you're somewhere we're not live yet
You can still create an account, use the tools and post your job — but be aware matching may not be live in your area yet, so quotes might not come straight away. We're expanding area by area as we recruit verified trades, and we'll never pretend a job is reaching local trades when it isn't.
Are you a tradesperson outside the East Midlands? Getting set up now is exactly how a new area comes on — the trades in place first are first in line as matching switches on locally.
FAQs
Which areas does Rank My Builder cover?
The directory and free quote tools are UK-wide. Live job matching — where a posted job reaches verified local trades — is currently focused on the East Midlands (Nottingham, Derby and Leicester postcode areas) and is being built out area by area across the UK.
Can I use it if I'm outside those areas?
Yes — you can sign up, use the tools and post a job anywhere in the UK. Just know that if matching isn't live in your area yet, quotes may not come through immediately. We're expanding as we recruit verified local trades.
Are you expanding to other cities?
Yes, area by area across the UK. We build a base of verified, reviewed local trades in an area before switching matching on there, so quality holds up as we grow.
