Taskovery
Looking to get some tasks done?
Post the job. We check it. The contractor who replies chose you, and is not one of five who bought your number.
For contractors
Your first job is free
Sign up, pass your checks, and your first job is on us. No plan needed for it. No commission on it, or on anything after it. You name your own price once you have seen the work.
Start here
What needs doing?
In your own words. We ask who you are after you have said it, not before.
How it works
Three steps, about two minutes.
Describe the job
In your own words. You don’t need an account until you’ve written it.
We check it
Every job is checked before a contractor sees it, so the wrong trade does not get it and nothing dodgy goes out.
Contractors come to you
The ones who want your job connect with you. You pick one. Nobody buys your number.
The photography on this page is generated. It shows the kind of work Taskovery is for, not particular jobs or particular people.

About
Washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, fridges and ovens. I carry the common parts in the van, so most jobs are done in one visit.
Rather they came to you? Post the job and the whole trade sees it.
Trades we offer
Find the trade you need
You do not have to pick one. Describe the problem and we work out who it goes to.
Two ways in
Ring someone now, or let the trade come to you
You’ll probably use both, on different days.
You ring them now
Best when the drain is blocked and it’s 7am.
- Seconds, not hours
- You pick, off their profile
- No numbers change hands
You post it, they come to you
Best when the job is bigger and you want a few people to weigh up.
- Reaches the whole trade at once
- They come to you
- Ends in a job you can review
You’re always the one choosing
No approval to wait on, nothing pending, nobody deciding for you.

Questions
What you’re probably wondering
Is it really 30 seconds?
That’s four taps: open, open the list of contractors who cover you, tap one of them, tap Call. No form, nothing to read first. Thirty seconds is how long four taps and a ringing phone take.
Your first visit is longer. You sign in once with a code and tell us your name and city. Every visit after that is the four taps.
What we can’t promise is that they pick up. If everyone in that trade is on another roof, post the job instead and it reaches all of them at once.
Does the contractor get my phone number?
Only if you ring them. Call shows you their number and hands it to your phone, so it is an ordinary call and they see yours. Message instead and no number changes hands.
Your street address is only shared once you’ve picked someone. Until then they see your city and roughly how far away you are.
What does Taskovery cost me?
Nothing. Browsing, posting, reading connections and messaging are all free. You pay your contractor for the work and nothing on top.
There are no optional extras either. No fee, no add-on, no service charge, no insurance product. The price your contractor quoted is the exact amount that leaves your account.
We’re paid by the contractor’s side, not by you. Those numbers are published too.
How do I pay the contractor?
Your contractor invoices you directly. We are not in the payment, and nothing is added to the price you agreed.
Which also means we cannot reverse it. If the work is not right, take it up with them, and your consumer rights apply as they would on any job.
Payments aren’t switched on yet, so nothing has been charged to anyone. The app says so plainly.
Are any of the results paid for?
Some are, and they say so. Anyone who has bought a week of placement appears first in Best match and carries the word Promoted on the card. A contractor’s plan buys them no position at all.
Nothing else changes: same checks, same rating, same real reviews. And two sorts have no placement in them at all. Closest gives you the nearest, Top rated the best rated, with nobody able to pay their way up.
Which areas are covered?
Right across the United States. Every contractor sets their own coverage area, so you only see people who genuinely come to your town.
Posting works anywhere in the country, and keeps working as more contractors join.
