Working with trades.org

The customer has hired

trades.org⁠

to serve as the coordinator and primary point of contact for this project. It’s our job to be an impartial and trusted intermediary that works with both parties to ensure project success.

We will collect three or more estimates, then work with the customer to choose a vendor to move forward with.

If you are chosen you will work with the coordinator at

trades.org⁠

to verify insurance, schedule the project, agree on milestone payments, and get a contract between you and the customer executed.

If you are not chosen after conducting an on-site or provided a qualified estimate, you will be granted a credit with

trades.org⁠

that you can receive as a bonus on a future project or apply towards services we offer.

The customer has asked us to serve as the coordinator for both parties’ protection. If you try to go around us and work with the customer directly, the customer will notify us and you will be immediately disqualified from this project and from receiving future projects for us.

About trades.org

We work with trade pros and customers to ensure that projects succeed.

How we help projects succeed

Everyone knows someone with a trade project horror story. Sometimes contractors are the bad guys, taking customer money and abandoning the project unfinished. Other times it’s the unreasonable customer unwilling to pay pros for a job well done.

trades.org acts as the trusted intermediary working with both parties to make sure everyone lives up to their commitments and that the project gets done right.

We thoroughly review our trade pros and customers to make sure they’re qualified for the project, make sure that expectations, costs, and time tables are properly agreed upon, and track project progress and payments to make sure both parties have everything they need to succeed and get what they want.
