For businessHow to get good quotes
Describe the job so businesses can price it
Say what needs doing, where it is, how big it is and when it should happen. A photo and a rough budget get you far more useful responses than a one-line request.
What a fair quote looks like
A good response names the work, the price or an hourly rate, what is not included, and roughly when they can start. Vague answers usually mean surprises later.
Compare responses and stay safe
Ask questions in the thread before you decide, check the business page and reviews, and never share your address, phone number or payment details in the public job description.
