Frequently asked questions about QuoteZila

QuoteZila is a UK local job marketplace. Customers post a job for free, and matched local businesses send them quotes. It is launching first in Cheshire, starting with tradespeople and small service businesses such as plumbers, electricians, cleaners and gardeners. The platform is not live yet.

Not yet. QuoteZila is pre-launch and is signing up local businesses first, starting in Cheshire. Covered towns include Crewe (CW1), Nantwich, Sandbach, Congleton, Winsford and Middlewich. Customer job posting is coming soon, and it will be free for customers to use.

We are launching first in Cheshire. Covered towns include Crewe (CW1), Nantwich, Sandbach, Congleton, Winsford and Middlewich. We are starting with trades such as plumbers, electricians, builders, decorators, plasterers, gardeners, cleaners, mechanics and handymen, plus other local service businesses. Choose "Other" on the sign-up form if yours is not listed.

The Launch 500 is our limited early-access group: the first 500 businesses to join at launch get 2 months free with no card needed. After that the planned price is £15 a month, starting later and only once you have accepted the terms. It is our current plan, not a contract.

No. The form just registers your interest and no card is needed. Everything is free for your first 2 months, which start when your business is approved and live on the platform.

The plan is currently £15 a month, but it starts later and nothing is taken automatically, as we do not collect a card to sign up. Before your trial ends we will email reminders and confirm the final terms, including VAT. To keep using your business login after the trial, you will need to accept those terms. Until you do, your login is paused.

That is not what we intend. We plan monthly, cancel-any-time membership. The final terms will be set out before launch.

Our intention is no lead fees: you would not pay per enquiry, per job or per quote. Membership is planned as one flat monthly price. This is our current intention rather than a contract, and we will confirm the final terms before your trial ends.

Not yet. Launch 500 places go to the first 500 businesses to join at launch, and we will explain how that works when we launch. We may need to check your details first.

We plan to check identity and business details, and trade registrations or insurance where relevant. Customers will see what was checked and when. These checks are not a guarantee of any business or its work.

Register your interest in the Launch 500 with your trade, base postcode and travel distance. When the platform launches, customers nearby will be able to post jobs and matched businesses send quotes. See jobs for tradesmen and the guide for your trade, such as plasterers, electricians or plumbers.

Yes, that is the plan. Customers post a job for free and compare quotes from matched local businesses. Customer posting is not open yet.

Compare more than one written quote, check insurance and registrations directly with the scheme, and agree the price and timetable in writing. Read our guide to finding local tradesmen near you. QuoteZila is being built to make this easier, but customer posting is not open yet.

The plan: you describe your job and where it is, matched local businesses send you quotes, you compare them, and you choose who to hire. Each job is planned to go to a small number of businesses rather than the whole town. Customer posting is not open yet.
