How Rank My Builder works (for homeowners)
Homeowner
Rank My Builder is a simple, fairer way to find a trustworthy local tradesperson. You post your job once, verified trades who cover your area and do that kind of work see it and quote, and you pick the one you like. Here's exactly how it works from your side.
Post your job
Tell us what you need doing, your postcode and a rough budget if you have one, and add a few photos if they help explain the job. It takes a couple of minutes and costs nothing.
The clearer your brief, the better the quotes. A line or two about the property, what you want and any timing matters more than a perfect description.
Get up to 5 quotes
Verified tradespeople who do that work in your area see your job and send a quote. Every job is capped at 5 quotes, so you get a real choice without being buried in calls and messages.
You can ask questions through the platform before you decide. Nobody gets your phone number unless you choose to share it.
Compare and hire
Look at each tradesperson's verification, their profile and their reviews from previous Rank My Builder jobs, alongside the price. Cheapest isn't always best — the cap is there so you can weigh up value, not just chase the lowest number.
When you've picked someone, you arrange the work directly with them. Afterwards you leave an honest review, which helps the next homeowner choose well.
FAQs
Does it cost anything to post a job?
No. Posting a job and getting quotes is completely free for homeowners, always. Tradespeople pay a small amount to quote, which keeps the platform running without charging you.
How many quotes will I get?
Up to 5. Every job is capped at 5 quotes so you get a genuine choice without being hounded. You may get fewer if only a couple of suitable trades are free for your job.
Am I obliged to hire anyone?
No. You're never under any obligation. If none of the quotes are right, you can simply not proceed — there's no fee and no pressure.
