About the Company

Checkatrade

Online directory of vetted UK tradespeople

Checkatrade connects UK homeowners with vetted local tradespeople through an online directory. Tradespeople pay a monthly subscription (£70–£120+VAT) for enhanced listings, while homeowners access the directory for free; initial listings include a vetting process and a profile with qualifications and customer reviews, plus a buyer protection guarantee up to £1,000 for jobs booked through the site. The service differentiates itself with a long history (founded 1998) and formal vetting, backed by ownership by HomeServe and later Brookfield, focusing on trust and lead generation rather than free listings. The goal is to help homeowners find trustworthy tradespeople and reduce rogue traders by combining checks, transparent profiles, reviews, and buyer protection, while growing the value of trade memberships.
