Fairness Is Our Foundation
- No Featured Listings – We don’t sell visibility or priority spots. All tradies are shown equally.
- Verified Tradies Only – Manual checks may include licence, ABN, business registration, and review quality before approval.
- Transparent Reviews – Reviews are tied to completed jobs, and homeowners are prompted to leave feedback after completion.
- Honest Reputation System – Reviews are not hidden, helping homeowners make informed decisions based on genuine feedback.
- Lead Caps – Capped leads reduce spam, prevent homeowner overwhelm, and help keep lead access fairer for tradies.
