How TheProperHandyman Works
We bridge the gap between UK homeowners who need home improvements and trusted, local tradespeople looking for real, high-intent jobs.
Get Your Job Done in 3 Easy Steps
Post your job once so interested local tradespeople can review it. Responses depend on availability in your area.
Post Your Job for Free
Tell us what needs doing — from a leaky tap or bathroom renovation to a full kitchen installation. Add your postcode, budget and preferred timing, then your phone number and email. Confirm your email to publish.
Share with Local Trades
Your confirmed job appears to tradespeople whose categories and coverage match. Interested businesses can unlock your contact details to discuss the work and provide an estimate.
Compare Quotes & Hire
Review business profiles, previous work and reviews where available. Check current qualifications and insurance, agree the scope and price, then choose whether to hire.
Win More Local Work on Your Terms
TheProperHandyman gives you real, genuine homeowner leads and a dedicated mini-website kit to showcase your brand.
Filter Leads by Trade & Area
Choose your base postcode, travel radius and trade categories. Your dashboard shows matching open jobs within your membership coverage and monthly contact allowance.
Your Own Business Profile
Get a custom vanity URL (theproperhandyman.uk/@your-business) with your logo, credentials, and before/after project gallery.
Lead CRM & Pipeline Manager
Keep track of every quotation from Contacted to Won. Store client notes, record quotes, and trigger instant WhatsApp or phone calls with one tap.
Check Before You Hire
Business profiles help you assess a tradesperson, but always check their current qualifications, relevant registration and insurance yourself before work starts. Agree the scope, price and payment terms directly.
Business Details
Ask who will carry out the work and check their trading details.
Insurance
Ask to see current public liability insurance appropriate to the work.
Previous Work
Review portfolios and customer feedback where available.
